One of the most attractive features Of by
Partners gone Junior days the fiction story which
With various Juniors wrote in collaboration
Stockton with the late Frank R. Stockton. In 1898,
, Mr.. Stockton asked to write the first
chapter fiction story, the twelve succeeding chap
tiers to be written week by week by Junior boy
girl The idea appealed strongly to the whimsical side
Of Mr. Stockton and he sent not only the first chapter OF
the story he The Adventures Of Ronald and Dck'
but chapter in which he outlined the story he
would have written it. This last chapter was not made
public until the story had been completed None Of the
Juniors was eager to The Journal Junior each

EUROPE BUYING WHEAT
BREADsTUFFs DEMAND FOR Elk
PORT THE MOST FAVORABLE
TRADE FEATURE.

New York. Oct. 2S.-Bradstreet's of today
says:
Activity, in fact buoyancy, still characterizes
practically all lines of trade and industry.
Cooler weather is stimulus to retail trade in
all but few small and relatively unimpOrtanr
sections of the country.
Recorder business reflects this in steady
call from jobbers for dry goods. clothing, shoes,
hats, in fact all lines of wearing apparel. Holt
day trade in many, lines also shows effects OF
early buying. - - y. ~. So
The practical lifting of the last of the south
ern guarantees is helping southern trade, as
is also the higher price of cotton, which Is
1oosening up the movement of that staple.
The long awaited naturalization of European
demand for breadstuffs is apparently now
at hand. Business in, this line, 1t Is claimed is
now limited only by vessel room capacity.
Higher prices for nearly all farm products have
helped demand in certain districts, and to d
certain extent improved collections Industry
