FULL OF GRATITUDE.


But the Little One Had a Queer Way
Of Expressing It.
Mr. Browns business kept him so
occupied during the daytime that he
had little opportunity to enjoy the So
ciety OF bis own children. When some
national holiday gave him day OF
leisure his young son was usually his
chosen companion. One day. how
ever. Mr.. Brown, reproached BY the
wistful eyes OF his seven year-old
daughter. reversed the order Of things
and invited tile little girl TO 20 with
him for long walk.
She was a shy. silent. small person.
and during the two hours stroll not
single word could Mr.. Brown induce
the little maid to speak. but her shin,
ing eyes attested that she appreciated
his efforts to amuse her-indeed. she
fairly glowed with suppressed happi-
ness.
Just before they reached home. how
ever. the child managed, but only after
a tremendous struggle with her inner
ent timidIty. to find words to express
her gratitude
Papa. what flower do you like

nor does It show symptoms OF any i'm
mediate increase or diminution. The
statement might perhaps be disputed
BY those who buy fresh fish in the mar
kets Of the north Atlantic seaboard
cities. but the price Of fresh fish has al
ways auctuatea with the supply OBJ
tainable on the particular day when the
consumer wanted it, and has therefore
little or nothing to do with general
conditions. Price is here an Arithmetic
cal problem, depending on the number
Of vessels unloading fish; the more yes
sells at the wharyes, the lower the price
Of fish at the fish market and the less
money to be divided among the crews Of
the vessels. Fluctuating as Il does even
IN the course Of few hours the highest
price OF fresh mackerel to-day is just
about what il would have been twenty
five years age-and 50 il the lowest.
The salt fish industry is a different
matter, in which the steadness Of price
has almost the immortality Of salt
fish when compared with live one. Il

BY a yearly output from Gloucester,

Of salt fish, to say nothing Of SOMETHING
