WEAK 1O FIVE LOVER
Very Heavy Run of Hogs and
Active Trade.
TOPS SETTLE ON 1922 ~
Cattle Market Steady With
Small Supply.
TOPS SETTLE ON 1922 ~

The Wichita hog market yesterday por-
trayed a banner day in all respects. It
was among the heaviest days in point of
receipts in many months, and though the
quality OF hogs was not especially atLac-
tive. the market prices paid were strong,
as compared with all other points. The
heavy receipts at this point had company
in the enhanced volume of offerings at
all the western receiving points. But
the interesting reature of yesterday at
this point was in the fact that though
a demoralized condition was early report
ed from all over the local market did not
az any time respond to the weakness. and
ustained itself remarkably we'll While
lspatches were pouring in of 5 to 10c
over markets elsewhere, this market
steadfastly remained comparatively firm
and all days quotation remained only
weak TO sc lower. 1t was in a measure
a razzle-daZzle day. By that il is meant
that unexpected heavy receipts from all
divisions appeared, and mostly late in
the day after the settled tone of all other
markets was assured. II was one of the
heaviest wagon days in many weeks. the
receipts from this branch approaching
the 300 mark. AS for the car lots, it may
az SdlQ iliGL THIS also was CONSIDERABLY
increased over any day in a long time.
In all there were q cars of stock received,
and of these all but three were cars of
hogs. and all sold which came in early
enough to be inspected. The stock yards
handled in all close to 2,O00 hogs yesterday
and every hog would have been solo had
the roads receiving them pushed them
up to the yards in reasonable season af-
ter they reached the city. The quality
in all was only fair. The heavy run of
wagon hogs showed up only fair the
preponderance being rather common.
There were few punches of fairly good
hogs in the local trade, but the average
was decidedly inclined TO the common.
As for the car stuff it may be said that
TWO or three cars were very good but
the rest were just fair mixed hogs. There
were very few car lots unassorted which
showed UP any extra grade, but there
were some few loads bearing good hogs
with the common, and sold promptly at
the best prices possible, the conditions
Icing as they were all over. The dock
age was very light. considering the run.
and there were few cut-outs and skips.
All the shippers who sold were well sat
listed with the day, and we'll they may
have been, this market compared with
Others

The Early London Omnibus.

When tue queen came to the throne, omnlbuses were new but already pop ular institution. They were longer mar rower and lower than the present ones and had no seats on the roof. The pas sengers were carefully shut in by a door at the end, as if to make quite sure of them, once they were captured, till they had raid their fares On little round perch behind stood the conductor or lead, ;" hanging on by leather loop passed over his arm. Sixperce was the usual bus fare 50 years ago, whether you went from beginning to end of the journey or anly few hundred yards. As there was very little regulation of the street traffic of London ill those days, if the bus was filled up at start ing it went like a fire engine in order to get i'll an extra journey, but other wise 1t crawAd and pottered about till the requisite number was obtained.
 Each omnibus was licensed only for particular route It paid the stage coach duty of e5 when first started and shilling year for keeping the license in force, besides mileage duty, varying with the number of passengers it would hold, but coming to about threepence per mile 0n the average.-Gentlema s Magazine.

Photographs of Celebrities. The enterprising photographer Is well

aware that whenever person becomes popular the public wants 10 know how he or she looks, and keeps a close watch upon ~islrc celebrities with 70 vioyv to putting money in his purse. When, for example, q player has achieved some popularity, he is approached by pho tographers who make a speciality of the work with polite requests that he sit for them. Nothing will be charged for the posing. and he may have any req sonable number of pictures free, the photographer depending for his profit entirely upon the money which the sale of the photographs will bring. How much that profit may be is largely a matter of guess work, for the popu- larity of stage people fluctuates con stantly. AS a general rule, pictures of actresses sell far better than those of actors. Any new star, of home or for eign origin, creates a brisk demand, which may last for weeks or even months. A successful play stlrs up great trade in the pictures of all the Well-known members of the cast, with the leading man and woman at the head of the list. With persons who have become prominent in other walks of life, much the same conditions apply as those which govern players. The President, Congressmen, Governors, Mayors, and others well-known in DO litical circles are approached by pho tographers, who desire to take them, either free or at a merely nominal charge, for the purpose of selling their pictures. Few photographers sell d. rectly to the public. They have regu- lar agents who make business of deal ing in photographs of celebrities"

FIBROID TUMOR
Expelled by Lydia a. Pinkham's
 Vegetable Compound.

MRS B. A. LOMBARD, Box n, Vest dale, Mass, writes: CT have reason to think that l would not be here now if it had not been for Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. 1t cured me of a f1broid tumor in my womb.
 "Doctorsc could ddonothing forme, and they could not cure me at the hospital. I will tell you about it:
 "I had been in my usual health, but had worked quite hard. When my monthly period came on, I flowed very badly. The doctor gave me medicine, but it did me no good. He said the flow must be stopped if possible, and he must find the cause of my trouble.
 "Upon examination, he found there was fbroid tumor in my womb, and gave me treatment without any benefit whatever. About that time a lady called on me, and recommended Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; said she owed her life to it. said I would try it, and did. Soon after the flow became more natural and regular. I still continued taking the Compound for some time. Then the doctor made an examination again, and found every thing all right. The tumor had passed away, and that dull ache was gone.

Looking Forward.

A Cleveland clergyman who is not given to putting on long face either in his pulpit or out of it says that be- fore he came here from the south he was one day asked by young man to unite him with the woman of his choice in the holy bonds of wedlock upon the evening of certain day.
 ''I am very sorry" 7" said the reverend gentleman, "but shall be out of town upon that day''
 The young m2p was crestfallen, said that he had set his heart upon having that particular minister perform the ceremony and asked if there was no possible way in which it could te ar ranged.
 'I thought the matter over," said the clergyman in recounting the expert ence, land finally agreed to return for the express purpose of complying with his wishes. He was greatly pleased, as- sured me that it was very kind of me and hinted that 1 would be we'll repaid for my trouble and consideration.
 "So upon the day set for the ceremony l travelled nearly 2CQ miles, paid out sS. 50 for my railroad ticket and other accommodations and gave the happy couple one of the best marriage services in my repertory.
 After tae ceremony the groom came to me, blushing furiously, slipped S5 bill into my hand and ill all serious ness said:
 This ls all have to give you uor, but ! --po to be able to to better next time.
 ''I was $3. 50 out of pocket on the transaction, and l guess I'll let him hunt up somebody else next time. '"- Cleveland Leader.

Married to a Flower Vase.

Among the curious marriage customs prevailing in China is one which IS thus described by a writer in the Family Herald:
 Not long ago a very pretty girl, the daughter of a prominent Chinese ott1 ciaI, was married with great pomp tC a large, red flower-vase, representing a deceased bridegroom, who had died a few days before his wedding was tC be celebrated.
 His inconsolable bride-elect declared that she would never marry any one else, but would devote herself as 8 widow to the dead mans family. Sc the ceremony with the 1ower-vase was gone through with to enable the girl to enter the family, and the town pro poses to build an arch to commemOr. ate her devotion.
