The Wichita hog market yesterday as
serted its own inherent strength by a tone
quotable all through as steady, when all
the other western live stock centers re-
ported early a quotation Of from weak TO

was no especial quality in and the aver
age for the entire days receipts was
just fair. There were cars weighed up,
against ; the day before, and ali were
bought readily, with the feeling very good.
There was nothing in of especial attrac
Iiveness, but what there was sold and
weighed up went readily. Not all the
offerings were handled, there being two
loads of ordinary stock of rather medium
grade which did not sell, but will cross
the scales this morning. Some Others
Jagged a little, more from too light grade
than anything else, but those which sold
were disposed Of at once. The market
tone was steady and this ruled for all
the sales, both in the wagon trade and
the car offerings. The top price was

there being very little in, but the quality
Of this class was very fair. The car Of

Her Mistake
She made red underclothing for
The little heather DER the sea;
She went into the slums and set
Men from the DEVILS bondage free.
Meanwhile her husband had to wear
Socks that were ho.ey, and the child
Who should have had her watchful care
Was left to run at large and wild.
She sought to lift the heather up
And teach the sinner 20 be good;
She had a weary husband and
The worst boy in the neighborhood.

Queen Victoria has always had lean
ing toward authorship, and she has often
related TO distinguished members of the
writer's craft how she, when young sent
ANONYMOUS contributions, chiefly poems, to
editors. only to receive them back with
the usual expression of regret.
The same experience, says the New York
World befell both the Princess Louise (the
Marchioness of Lorne) and the late Duke
of Albany. The latter used to tell how
an editor wrote to him, az the same time
returning his manuscript to the effect
that although the statements he made
were interesting enough, they seemed TO
be quite without authority"
The Princess was more fortunate on
MANY occasions One editor repeatedly ac-
cepted articles on art from her before he
discovered her identity.
The Princess says that one of the proud
est moments of her life was that in which
she found check made out to herself, in
the name of ''Myra Fontenoy," for literary
work.
The wife of the German Emperor. too.
a few years ago was keen on acquiring
literary fame. Her book a story of old
German days, wandered from publisher to
publisher without a kind word being said
for tia fact which the Empress now ack-
nowledges caused her more disappoint-
ment than any other trouble had ever
done
After the book had made it's round the
Empress wished 20 publish II on her own
account, but was strongly disuaded from
doing so by the Emperor.
Somehow the story got abroad among
the publishers, and the Empress was wait
ed upon one day by a deputation from
leading publishing firm of Berlin, who
asked to be allowed the honor of publish
ing her work. The Empress told the
deputation that her experience as an au-
thoress had caused her so much disap-
pointment that after her husband had read
favorably upon 1t she had ordered the
manuscript TO be destroyed.

Help me to bear each cross, and not re-
pine;
Grant ME fresh courage each day,
Help me TO do my work alway
Without complaint!
o Lord. Thou knowest well how dark the
way,
Guide Thou my footsteps, lest they stray;
Give me fresh faith for every hour,
Lest 1 should ever doubt Thy power
And make complaint
Give me heart, o Lord, strong to endure,
Help me to keep it simple, pure;
Make me unselfsh, helpful true
In every act whate'er l do,
And keep contentl

Make me courageous, strong TO bear

A charming little story, says Youths
Companion, is told of Queen Victoria
first visit TO Crathie Church, near Bal
moral. On that occasion a fine dog which
belonged to the clergyman followed his
master up the pulpit steps. and lay against
the door during the entire service. AL
though the dog made not the slightest dis
turbance, Sir George Grey, who was then
in attendance on her majesty, regarded
the animals presence as somewhat dsre-
spectful, and suggested to the clergyman
that it had better be dispensed with In
the future.
The next Sunday therefore, the dog was
denied his usual privilege of church-going.
and remained sorrowfully at home
A day or two later the clergyman was
honored by an invitation to dine with the
royal family. To his surprise Queen Vic
toria presently inquired for his dog, saving
she had noticed he was not at church on
Sunday.
Il kept my dog at home last Sunday
your majesty" replied the clergyman "as
Sir George Grey thought his presence in
church would annoy you"
oh no." said the Queen, heartily, ''let
him come as usual. I only wish everybody
behaved at church as well as your noble
dog!" added her majesty, with a decided
spice of mischief in her tone.
Sir George Grey's feelings are not re-
corded. but IT is said that the Crathie
clergyman was warmed and comforted bv
this tribute TO the good behavior of his
favorite.
