wife must provide for.
If woman Is foolish enough to
buy articles that she doesn't need be-
cause she sees them priced low, then
she should not only avoid bargain
counter, but also store, for undoubt-
edly she would buy with just as lit
tie judgment from the regular stock
There are many things which the
merchant puts on the bargain counter
rather than re-inventory and store
them away at the close of the season.
These are what the careful buyer
looks for. She finds itc heaper to buy
the winter underwear in the spring
and vice versa. The same is true Of
dress goods, for onew no must dress
economically can never afford to buy
the eccentric in clothes, but will buy
from the staple line at the close Of the
season for her next years clothes. In
this way she has much nicer goods
for the same price. Especially with
childrens clothes is it wise to follow
this plan.
Children's coats change littlef rom
year to year, yet they may be obtain
ed for almost half at the end of their
season. Often odd sizes may fit you
and these are generally put out at
reduced prices Many things have
been marked down because they have
become soiled with much handling and
are not salable at their original price
II these can be laundered it Is cheaper
to buy them
Every year the samples that the
travelling men carry are bought up by
many merchants and thrown on a
rummage table Many of these sam
pies of wearing apparel are too soiled
to be useful, but many are not and it
is we'll to look this line of bargains
over to see If any are available for
your purpose, as they are generally
of superior goods and make
Some articles are marked down be-
cause their color or style Is out of
fashion Ii these are worth dyeing, or
can be made over profitably, it is
sometimes worth while to purchase
and color or make over
Another variety of bargains Is what
is called seconds" These are goods
which by reason of scme tiny flaw
are thrown out by the expert inspec-
tors from the first class Frequently
these flaws do no injury to the looks
or wear of a garment, butn aturally
reduce the price of it
Therefore it seems to me that al
though it is not best to buy madly
every bargain you see, still it is wise
to consider calmly If it will be needed
in the near future, when it must be
bought rom the regular stock at dou
bic the price.

she Is ignorant OF the laws OF mousse
keeping.
Man, in his ignorance. imagines that
housekeeping is the simplest thing in
the world, and that any one could
do it.
If his home is not comfortable he
does good deal OF complaining. II
1t is comfortable he takes it quite for
granted, and rarely gives his wife the
praise she so thoroughly deserves.
A house is like any business con-
cern; it must be well run in every
whole.
1t requires patience, economy, neat
ness and infinite tact to make house
hold run smoothly.
In large family there are sure to
be great many diversities of opinion.
One will like one thing, another will
like something else. Mary can't eat
mutton; John likes it better than any
thing yon can give him.
The housekeeper must cater to all
and yet not be extravagant. She must
remember all the individual likes and
dislikes all the individual likes and
dislikes and please everybody.
No matter how hard and trying the
day may be she must be cheerful and
interested in what the absentees have
been doing all day.
One who has never kept house can
not realize how many domestic details
can go wrong in one day. All little
things, perhaps, but, oh! such irritat-
ing, troublesome little things that they
are more annoying than one big thing
would be.
A man would 60 distracted with the
annoyances of woman's average

When even capable housekeeper
has these annoyances to contend with,
you can imagine how helpless an ig
norant housekeeper feels when con-
| fronted by them.
| Every mother should insist on her
daughters learning something about
housekeeping.
The late Queen Victoria, of England,
had every one of her daughters take
a thorough, practical course in all do
nestle branches.
The young princesses were taught
to sew, to cook, to distinguish be-
tween the different cuts of meat Had
they married poor men they would
have known how to go into the kitchen
and cook.
Every woman is queen over her own
little kingdom. She can make that
kingdom haven of comfort and hap
piness or she can make it miserable
failure.
The more she knows about house.

her kingdom happy one.-Beatrice

The feature in the cattle trade
this week is the reduced receipts, a
total of $4,000 head, including $500
calves for the two days, which is %
per cent less than same days last
week Difficulty in securing cars for
shipping, and the storm Of Sunday
and yesterday have held the supply
down some. but it is thought the
crest of the big fall business has pass
ed. OF course, there will be other
big days in the next few weeks, but
probably no big weeks. The market
closed last week a shade lower on
beef steers, and on stockers and feed
ers, but this weakness has been re-
covered yesterday and today, and
firmness is the dominant element of
the situation; cows and calves are
little higher today. The supply is
10000 today, including 1000 calves,
top on beef steers Sc. 25. An extra
prime lot would bring s6.75, but
there are few feeders in the west
who have the patience to keep cattle
in the feed lot long enough to pro-
duce that kind Professional feeders
in Illinois and Iowa keep steers on
feed the year round, occasionally top
ping out a load or SO, which accounts
for the extreme top frequently paid
at Chicago. That is the reason some
desultory shippers in the west are Of

Sheep supply continues heavy, but
the end of the range season is in

The.less0n of Kansas.

Events continue to throw light on
that one-plank platform adopted by
the Trego county, Kans., Republican
convention last April: Resolved,
That we let well enough alone" Ac-
cording to the Kansas state bank
commissioner the total deposits in
all the banks in the state averaging
S105 for every man, woman and child
within its borders. Last May the
per capita wealth thus represented
was $500. That represented a gain
or more than 50 per capita over the
average three monnhS before, but as
the new figures show an increase of
more than SIG per capita it may be
said that prosperity abounds in the
Sunfiower state.
The moral of it is plain. A few
years ago Kansas stopped raising in
fernal products for political consump-
tion and went to raising agricultural
commodities, with the result that
one seasons crops alone-and the end
is not yet-have raised the per capita
deposits in the banks more than S16.
What rich reward like this could
Kansas have CLEANED from the har-
vests of Populism and other crank
cries to make men prosperous by
government?.New York Sun.
When a horse-is so overworked 10
