Monday Aug. ., when 92,153 head were

Taking a broader survey, all previous
records were broken in the livestock
markets of the west during the first
nine months of 1901. Treasury depart
ment reports show that up to Oct. l,

died at the five principal livestock CEN
tiers of the west. During the same pc
riod 13,4l9,669 hogs and 5,331,355 sheep
were received, making an aggregate of
% 9S1, $50 food animals, or 1,74l2O9 more
than the total for the same period in
1900
To conclude with few records more
strictly in the odd class: Two prize
winning hogs were produced. Down in
Vladosta. Ga, hog was killed whose
gross weight was 1850 pounds; his net
weight was 955. Each ham weighed 102
pounds. This fat monster produced 80
pounds of lard, or nearly a fierce and
half-enough to last a small family
about four years. Besides the lard.
there was nearly a wagonload of sau-
sage from this one pig. to say nothing
of big dishpans full of hogShead cheese,
liver pudding and other products.
The second big giant was a Chester
White boar, weighing 1,2JS pounds.
measuring three feet nine inches across
the back and eight feet six inches from
the tip of the nose to the end of the
tail. 1t was brought to the Chicago
stock yards Feb 20 by S. a. Stephens
of Dayton, Ills.
Among other curious things, London
had a record breaking fog on Oct %
the streets being rendered impossible
during all that evening by the densest
and blacklist fog known for years.
Park Policeman A. J. Stiles of Chi
cago says he is the champion stopper
of runaways, having during the year
increased his total to 135.
For Christmas remembrance rec
ord breaking lot of American candy
was shipped across the Atlantic. Much
of it went in five and ten-pound boxes
and was from parents to girls who are
attending schools abroad. To the
American girl with a sweet tooth there
is no candy like that produced in Yam

Things for Bows TO Rememher

That it takes more than muscle to
make a man.
That it requires pluck to be patient.
That selfiShness is the most unmanly
thing in the world
That consideration for mother and

than the kind of necktie he wears.
That the only whole man is the holy

That to follow the crowd is a con-
fession OF weakness.
That one real friend is worth a score
OF mere acquaintance.

Last weeks installment concluded
with the contention of James, the
Presbyterian, that our Lord founded
no such church as the Catholic and
hence the reformers were invested with
as much authority as the 'Romanists'
in claiming the right to interpret Scrip
ture; even more, because the reform
erS received the Word from God him
self. John the Catholic, replied: IF
you say that, you concede the point
you dispute. You allege against the
Church, that our Lord founded no such
church. The essential character of the
Church, so far as concerns the present
controversy, is that she has the word
of God, and is it's legal keeper and eX-
FOUNDER. If, then, you say the reform
ers had legal possession of the Word.
and were authorized to keep and eX
pound it. you make them essentially
such d church as you say our Lord did
not found. You contest the claims of
the Church on the ground that our
Lord founded no church with the au-
thority she exercises: you must. then
unless you would concede what you
deny. disclaim that authority on the
part of the reformers." James, answer
ing, said he disclaimed it on their part.
