Tranquility of List.

List was a sweet souled charac tpr.
One day two of his friends, musicians,
resolved to put the maestro into a
passion. (Which one of his habits, -
they inquired, 'would most seriously
trouble him were he deprived Of ft?"
"Perhaps," was the answer, 'he
would suffer most If deprived Of a We'll

The two confederates, with louis,

She was not, it was agreed, to make

For two days following she neglect

Books and an lmpudent Rascal.

Book buying has it's joys, but there
comes a time when "weeding out" has
to be undertaken. The late Churton
Collins crammed his house with books.
Then one day he realized that some
would have to go. A man from book
shop was sent for. to look at them,
writes L. c.. Collins in his memoir of
his father. IS + y The following COL
loquy ensued: Have you selected the

A Cunnino Little Bird,

A naturalist had been searching for
the eggs ofsthe little dunlin in Siberia
and came upon nest. The bird quiet
ly slipped off and began to- walk
around the man, now and then pecking;
on the ground, as if feeding, seldom
going more than six feet from him and
often approaching within eighteen
inches. The tameness Of the bird was
almost ludicrous. She seemed so ex-
tremely tame that the man almost
thought for the moment that he could
catch her, and. getting on all tours, he
crept quietly toward her. AS soon as
he began to move from the nest the
birds manner entirely changed. She
shufaed along the ground as if lame.
She dropped her wings. as if unable to
fly. and occasionally rested on her
breast with dropping wings. as if dy-
ing. Finally when she eluded him and
darted into the, underground he found
that he had lost the location of the,
nest

if the opposition prolongs the debate on

the absence OF Canada's prime minister

The opposition, it is believed. will
agree to the propagation of parliament
early next month and the belief Is that
the government win have put through
its reciprocity bill before then. Only
about fifteen per cent. of the supply
items have been voted and this means
great congestion of parliamentary
business after the Easter recess, which
begins to-day and lasts week.

permitted to name his committees
and has had them adopted by the ma

I'm BOSTON MARKETS.
Egg Market Firm and Advance in Price
Likely.


Boston, April l2.-The movement Of
butter continues rather sluggish
in the local market, and with good
sized supplies on hand, dealers are dis
posed to meet buyers part way in the
matter of prices. The cheese market
is not very active, but prices are fair.
" steady as supplies are not as bur
densome as they were some weeks ago
ana there is less pressure to sell. The
egg market is very firm, and while no
change has been made in prices. an adj
vance seems likely. Receipts are much
lighter than they were at this time last
year and it is believed that the poul-
trymen are setting their hens. Eggs
are not bringing the raisers as much as
in former years at this season and,
with feeds fairly reasonable. there is a
disposition to set the hens earlier than
usual.
