Farmers know that sheep IN t.iia
country increase largely IN numbers.
They look forward to the lainbing sea-
son because it adds to their fioclss, and
every little lamb that lives IS worth q
few dollars 70 the farmer But there
must have boen something the matter
with the sheep between 1892 and 1891.

must have struck tho sheep, Perhaps it
was the FREQ trade plague OF Grover
Cleveland. That struck overy other part
of tho country and blasted husinuss
Perhaps it struck the farmers sheep
and made them barren.
The American wool clip for 1863
amounted to 30i SIS, 1888 pounds of
washed and uuwashcd wool. Its price
ranged from rs to 80 cents a pornd,
and the total clip was worth SOS, a9i,-

age price Of wool ranged only FROM 10
up to 2a cents per pound, there being
loss Of from 8 90 0 cents per pound. The
total clip at the beginning Of this year

Then a young man with eyeglasses
and cane got up and proffered the

The next instant a half dozen men
were on their feet and as many seats
were rendered the young woman. But
she smiled sweetly, thanked them all
and kept her hold on the strap.
After she had left the car and was

KYRLE Bellows VANITY.

thanks in the name of the American

The actor favored her by an espe-

it and rather patronizingly tossed it
over to her.
The girl picked the boat up slowly

blush overspread her face, but looking

one woman to aspire to, so. with your
nerr1iSSion Mr. ReIlew I will take it

his lips and permit his brow the shad-
