CATTLE HORN TRADE
Holds It's Own Despite Use of Initiative
Substance.

In Frankfort street New York. near
the East river and its picturesque
shipping. is small shop that deals in
curious commodity-hor Not the
musical horns which the little German
band delights TO play. but the horns
with which Il bull assists a stranger
over fence or losses a small boy
over a treetop. Cattle are raj ed not
only for the steaks which they carry
about with them. but also for their
hoofS, which finally trut to the factory
and become glue: their bones. which
are laid down in the mill to become
agricultural fertilizers; their hides.
which are turned into shoes. and their
horns. which are made by the art Of
the jeweler and the skill OF the crafts
man into a hundred objects of beauty
and utility. The horns. which the cat
lie in the field shake at you. proudly
or deiantly, are an object OF the
worlds commerce Sometimes a shin
from the other side OF the world comes
into New York harbor with 10000 or
10000 pairs of cattle horns in her
hold. Horns are shipped to the United
States from South America. Australia.
Africa. India. and Europe. a great
many come from Ruenos Ayres and
MOnteYldeO. the commercial centers Of
the great cattle industry OF the Argen-
tine Republic and Uruguay. London
also sends argosies of horns to tho
new world, collected largely from Rus
STA and the orient. India exports buff
falO horns. The domestic supply OF
horns comes chiefly from Texas. Mon
tana. Idaho. Colorado and Kansas. All
the large horns you see come from
South America. The wild cattle have
been crossed BY superior breeds. ard
their horns no lonSer grow as large
and long as they did years ago. In a
measure they are graded. and AS the
stock improves in quality the horns
diminish in size. I his is especially
true OF the herds Of cattle in Texas

any pure wild cattle left in the coun

very deeply indeed.
Don't throw the devotion of your
slave back in his face by calling il
friendship" he said. "Lillie," He laid
down his cup now, and leaned toward
her to get glimpse of the fair face

fluttering nervously.

He had risen now. and, standing over
her. had imprisoned the white fingers
that held the fan with masterful air
that bespoke all the ardOr of a deter

back to another night in the far past,
when thus another Gordon had stood
over her and claimed the love he be-
lieved to be his?
But this was not the same Lille who
had allowed Roddy Gordon TO think
her heart won to- his keeping who
looked up now in the eyes of Roddy's
kinsman.

son. and she knew now that it was to
Don Gordon alone her heart must be
