COUNTY COURT 7 AY.

Monday was county CO. day
and there was only Il moderate
crowd in town, owing to the farm
ers being so busy taking care of
their wheat and rye crops and
hustling to keep ahead of the
weeds in the corn crops.
There was pretty good supply
of horses on the market and some
good ones, but the holders were
very stiff in their prices, SO that
many were not sold.
There were Il number of cows
and calves and some short year.
lings on the market. They
brought fair prices only.
Some few good mules were sold
at fancy prices. Ordinary stock
was higher even than at last court.
The crowd dissolved early, and
the farmers went back to the
pressing work Of the farm.

where Some Writers FaiI.


 In the Editors Study in Harper's for Deeember, Mfr. Alden gives his opinion that the chief fault to ba guarded against in writing is the lack of spontaneity.
 "The most frequent defect in fiction submitted for magazine use, and ws might add, in most Jf the fiction that somehow gets published in book form. is its lack of spontaneity in construe- tiOn and expression. The writer of this manufactured fiction has a ear- tain precaleulated effsct in view. wltl reference to which he amoitiously con- trives every incident ard situation 0f his story. The harder he tries th4 more surely he fails of any genuin } appeal to his readers. If he dtsgulses his labor by facile mastery of dra- matic material and expression, he may succeed in reaching crude sensibilities and, because of his lower aim. may outseH hts betters. The multitude Is easily captivated by splendid artihee which, In exceptional instances, the writer has not by his strenuous etfort wholly closed the door against all spontaneity. Poe came very near to the exclusion In hls short stories. If such genius as was in him; but be cause he was by temperament poet, a lover therefore of haunting melody and easily the creator of pregnant att mospheres. he could not completely shut himself out of his fiction. In our day polite literature must appeal to human sYmpathies. and the writer ] fertility of invention is of little ser ycle.
