Their mother had devoted herself to

TO give quite so much time TO them. So
they were sent to school, and often
they had to 20 to bed without the
pretty story.
One evening the mother noticed that
the older boy seemed unusually grave
She was making preparations to 90 out

The mother did not 90 out to dinner

The improvement in trade this week over
that of the week ending Aug. % is appar-
ent on the wholesale streets. Grocers are
having a good trade. Sugars are in strong
position. and at the present time there are
no indications of lower prices for any of
the staple groceries. The dry-goods men
report a little Frightening in the situation
and the millinery houses and hat and cap
stores are beginning again to sell some
goods. Leather dealers say they never had
a better trade. No changes in price have
yet been made, but lower prices are antici-
pated when the tariff gets in it's work. The
hide market is active, but prices on the
class of hides handled in this market do
not advance. The wool market is 1ifeless.
Provisions are firmer and in good demand
both for local and foreign consumption.
1t is an off week win the local grain
market. Transactions are falling off and
