from E.6OGL.O. The quality was about the
same as yesterday, but there were no really
fancy loads with which to make a good top.
After about half of the hogs had changed
hands trading came to a standstill, as pack
ers were bidding a little lower than they
were earlier In the day.
The situation grew worse instead OF bet
ter as the morning advanced and the close
was very slow, with the advance nearly all

SHEEP-There was a fair run of sheep
here today for a Friday, but as the demand
was in pretty good shape the market on
the better grades of sheep and yearlings
did not show much of any change. Year
hngs sold as high as 1910 which looked
about steady. The less desirable grades
were perhaps a little easy.
There were a few lambs included In the
receipts but nom that were strictly choice,
Buyers did not take hold very freely and
the market could be quoted rather dull and
weak.
The feeders that were at all good were
ready sellers at fully steady prices. II any
thing yearling wethers were a shade
stronger.

PAINE'S CELERY
OUND
Permanently Cures AL the
Varied Forms Of
Rheumatism.
Ii Purifies the Blood and
Removes Every Trace
of Poisonous Acid.
The Great Medicine Has Cured More
Rheumatic Sufferers Than All
Other Combined Remedies.

Sufferers from the varied forms OF rbeu-
matism-arttcular, muscular. animate
lumbago and gout-should bear in mind
that there is a morbid principle in the
blood when rheumatism is present. This
morbid principle Is uric acid, which circu-
lates with the blood and acts upon the
joints and muscles. causing the pains and
agonies of rheumatism. Paine's Clery Com
pound Is the only scientific remedy for the
permanent Punishment Of every form Of
rheumatism. II your joints are painful; II
the knees, wrists. elbows or ankles are
swollen. a few bottles OF Paine's Celery
Compound will soon remove all your
troubles and pains. II you have infam-
matory or sciatic rheumatism, accompanied
with fever. acute, darting pains in the
sciatic nerve from the hip down the leg.
Paine's Celery Compound taken at once will
soon drive out the disease and make you
strong and active.
At this particular time, when rheumatism
frequently lays the foundation for other in
durable and grave troubles, we specially
urge the honest use Of at least one bottle
OF Or. Phelps ife-giving medicine, Paine's
Celery Compound. No case is too compli-
Gated or difficult for this king OF medi-
cines. Thousands of happy and grateful
men and women sing it's praises and con-
tinually recommend It. 1t is the only
medicine that can rescue people from agony
and death after physicians pronounce them
incurable. Mrs. Louisa Rix, Wesley. Ia,
says:
Some time ago my husband was taken
down with infammatory rheumatism, so
that he was unable to get out Of bed alone
or to dress himself. We employed good
doctors and used many kinds of medicines,
but with no relief. We finally sent for a
bottle of Paine's Clery Compound and be-
fore he had finished II he was able to be
at work. Another bottle entirely cured
him."

BURNS FILES APPEAL BOND
Signed by surety Companies In Sum
of 100000, which is Accepted
by Doyle.

The supersedeas bond in the sum OF
$500, 900 for the appeal by the defendant to
the state supreme court in the celebrated
mining suit Of James Doyle against James
F.. Burns, president of the Portland Gold
Mining company OF Colorado was filed in
the district court here yesterday by former
Governor c. s.. Thomas and Ralph W.
Smith of Denver. The bond is signed by
the Fidelity and Deposit company. the
United States and Guaranty company and
the American Bonding and Trust ompany
of Baltimore. The bond was accompanied
by a stipulation signed by the attorneys for
Doyle that 1t was satisfactory to them and
accordingly IL was accepted by Freeman
Reed, clerk Of the district court.
The bond also bore the signatures of
James F. Burns and Ralph W.. Smith, rep
resentative Of the three bonding companies.
But for the acceptance by Doyle and his
attorneys of a bond in the sum of $500, 900,
Burns would have been unable to furnish a
surety company bond. The lows law limits
such bonds to 10 per cent Of the capital
stock Of the bonding company. and it is
said that the combined capital stock Of such
companies entitled to do business In Iowa
does not amount to $4,000 900, although
their assets are much greater than that
sum.
Judge Green's judgment entry in the case
was received here yesterday and duly en-
tered on record. 1t gives Doyle Judgment
for $446, 1922. 10, the amount awarded him by
the Jury last December, and Ss,044 interest
on the Judgment to date.
