A SPELLING LESSON.
Thera lived a man in Mexico,..
Who all his life did battle
To rightly spell spate easy words
As Nahuatloatl.
He wrote the names of all the towns,
It took of ink a bottle,
Bat mold not :poll Tenochtitlan,
Nor plain Tlaoatecoti.
He went he spelling -school each day,
And though a man of mettle,
He could not conquer Topiltzin
Nor Huitzilopochetl.
He dwelt some time in Yucatan,
And there, at Tzompantilli,
Be learned to spell one little word,
"Twee Zinhonolpilli.
The joy o,f spelling just one word
Did all his mind unsettle ;
But, spelling still, he oboked at last
On Popoahtepetl.
HE HAD HIS WAY.
]jay shaving -brush ie missing, and my
shoe horn oan't be found,
My comb and brush I cannot see, my
cane is nowhere round,
My tall silk hat is reeled up, my pens
have gone astray—
But all this woe is naught to me, for
baby's had bis way.
What though my shoes are mines strings,
my manuscripts awry ?
Ilinow that this betokens babe's been
spared a heartfelt cry,
What though the floor is ever strewn
with toys, by night and day ?
Is there not pleasure in the thought that
baby's lead his way.
It hurts to have my muetaohe pulled, and
games at 4 a, m.
Are not just suited to my mind, but John
ire. is fond of them,
And, after all, its seems to me, no man
pan well gainsay
That tbere is lots and Iota of fun when
baby has, hie way. •
So, son and heir, continue on thy happy,
bleat career;
Neer shall thy daddy interpose: to raise
the scalding tear,
Wbate'er disoomfortcomes to me, cease
nob thy joyous play ;
Ae far as I'm concerned, my boy, go on
and have thy way.

Salt-produoing in the Dominion has
been an uneatiefaatory one for some time.
The find dense of this is the fact tbab the
supply exceeded the demand, Following
this came the natua] consequences, heavy
stroke and depreciated prices.
Barrel salt hoe been sold as low as 43

anyone conversant with the trade, In

barrel inaelf is 21 cents, leaving 22 cents

the wells could produce a barrel of eel
while none of them could make a living

business under such conditions, closed.
down their wells.
The consumption' of native eel in Can-
ada was a year or two ago some 300,000
barrels per annum, but, owing to the
competition among the domestic salt
makers, together with the improved
quality of salt turned oub by some of the
wells, it is now estimated to be 25 per.
oent. larger.
That this increased eonemnptioo was
partly at least at the coat of the imported
artiole is evident from the Trade and
Navigation Returns. In 1892 Canada
imported 18,887,210 pounds of salt, other
than free comae salt for the sea lieheriee,
valued at 296,356; in 1893 20,163,817
pounds, valued at $79,479 ; in 1894 the
imports Bank to 16,887,014 pounds, valued,
at 353,531. Tbe duty on salt, other than
free salt for the fisheries, ranges from 6
to 77,, oents per 100 pounds.
the advance in prioe,
the Canadian producers claim that they
will still be able to compete suocessfully
with the imported article.
• "110T'80 BE TiSI't'Lro AGAIN."
Some bine ago, in the State of Mich!,
gan, a young and enterprising book agent
was in the country, travelling from town
to town, selling a, work palled "The Early
Ohristian Martyrs,' which he sold at 25
a copy, delivering the books and oolleot-
ing the money as he went along.
He had been two days in a pertain town
and had taken a fair .number of orders
there, when it little before nodn Iia called
in' a grocery store,where he found the
proprietor alone. The. old grocer asked
him what he had, seeing from his sample
Daae that be was an agent of some kind.
He replied, "I'm taking ordersfor a work
called 'The Early Christian Martyrs;
and have only a few copies left."
The old man's eyes beamed with de.
light as he seed, "Is that so ? Why, it
was only a few nights ago my wife and I
were talking about that book and weeder.
ing bow we could get it. She wants the
book and so do 8." The agent delivered
him a Dopy, and as the old man gave him
a$5 bill in payment,hesaid : "Now, look
here, don't you go over to the house and
sell a copy to my wife, because we only
want one in the family."
"Certainly not," saidthe book agent,,
"I wouldu'tthink 'of such a thing," and
bidding the old man good morning he left
the store. It was then about 11:5, and
the train which was to take him to Chi-
cago started at 12:15 p. m, Ole said to
himself, "I have just time to sell is Dopy
to the old lady and get on the train."
So he entered the nearest drug store,
and getting the home address of the old
man from a directory, he at once harried
there. 0f course he bad no diffioulty in
making the sale, as she was as anxious to
get the work, and having received the e5
he Heade all haste to catch the train.
The old men came home for dinner
long after the book agent had gone. His
wife dame toward him smiling and con.
gratulating herself upon having secured
what she bad so long wished to possess,,
a copy of "The Early Christian Martyrs."
He did nob smile, however, but swore
angrily and, muttering something about
that he would fix be, hurried (not stop
ping for dinner) in the hope of reaching
the station before the train started for
Chicago, thinking that the book agent
would be eure to leave town as soon as
possible after this.
When he Dame within 200 yards of the
atation he saw from the top of the hill
which sloped down to the station that
the train was on the point of starting,
so, recognizing a friend of his who Wae
nearly at the bottom of ego hill and
oonsegnently ;lose to the train, he be,
gan geatioulating and shouting to him to
atop the book agent. His friend could
only catch the words book agent, who
was smoking a cigar on the rear platform
of
is oar, and asked him what the old man
on the hill wanted. The book agent
pretended to sordtinize the figure fu- the
distance, of course, knowing full well who
he was and what he wanted. in a few
minutes he sold de -au idea seemed to
strike Ilio ; •
"I know ; d know now. That is acus.
tomer of mine. Hewants a dopy of "The
Christian Martyrs," and like e, fool I
never called on him. I forgot him, If
you want to do him a good turn," he ad
ded jueb as the train was going to move
out, "yon bud better take the bbok from
me and give it to him, so be won'b bo
disappointed, Tho prise is 36."
The man gave the book agent 35 for
hie friend, took the book and the train
started for Chicago. As the book agent
leaned bail hs hie seat he toe* a small

Geo, D. Sherman,. a market gardener
living near Harrow, returned from New
York on Monday, after receivingapresent
of 26,000' in return for u bowie deed per-
formed seventeen years ago. In 1808
Sherman, who is a. relative of the cele.
brated American family of that name,
was at . the Eales. At that time Geo.
Smith, a, New York millionaire, was
sojourning at the Falls, and one day
his daughter-in-law and two children
were saved from going over the Falls by
Sherman. The latter never' thought any.
thing about the affair until about six
weeks ago, when a New York lawyer me-
ted upon him and said that he had been.
following Sherman for weeks at bhe re.
quest of the elder Smith. The lawyer
outlined the places he had been in, and
after satiefyiog himself that the latter
was the petaon he was after, he induced
Sherman to go with him to New York
where they met Cir. Smith and the
woman and ohildren whom hs bad saved.
Smith, who is immensely wealthy, said
he bad. been for years deeiroua.of reward-
ing Sherman, and then and there gave
him 36,000. Of this amount Sherman
is to.draw interest on $3,000 until Smith
dies, 3500 goes to Sherman's wife aud
3500 to each of hie three ohildren. Sher.,
man is somowhab of a obild of fortune;
and next year comes into a fortune of
$8,000 left some time ago by an aunt.
A short biros ago he lost 33,600 in a . De.
troit enterprise.
