IN this book Mr.. Eggleston has giveRs
u 2 fascinating story of the early
pioneer life in Indiana. a field with
when His own life has made him inti-
m3tcly familiar. II is narrative cS-
rccilIly addressed to boys, but ono that

readers. into it Mr.. EgGleston. with
the rare charm of style that is charac-
teriStic of his literary workmanship.
has woven many experiences in the
early life of himself and his gifted
brother, Edward Eggleston. 1t is
needless to say that the story carries
an atmosphere OF truth. and the inter-
est awakened in the first chapter never
lags TO the end. 1t is distinctly one OF
the best books for boys ever issued by
an American publishing house. The
scene is laid in Clifty county, Ind,
around 1870, and the experiences of four
brothers. who take it upon themselves
to establish a new home to which they
may take their widowed mother and
their sister, give a picture of pioneer
life more faithful than any to be OBJ
tanned from historical work. Much
hearty enjoyment is combined with
hard labor, and an exciting plot IS
furnished by the successful efforts OF
the eldest brother, Jack Shelby, to rid
that section of a gang of thieves, which
had previously enjoyed immunity
through having a deputy United States
marshal among it's number.

"The Bible and Spiritual Criticism"
by Arthur 7. Pierson, d. d.: PIP 276;
Baker & Taylor Co.; 81 net.
This volume contains the second
series of Exeter Hall Lectures. They
are in one sense n companion to his
recent book, Coils Living Oraclcs."
1t is defence OF the inspiration and
integrity of the HOY Scriptures, and
is a clear, scholarly work representing
earnest faith and spiritual insight.
The book is a defence Of the tradi-
tional view of inspiration and the Bible,
and like many another of its kind, the
author fails to appreciate the deeper
view of the scriptures and the modern
contributions of knowledge which he
50 vigorously seeks to satirize. For
one who insists upon holding to the
older conceptions of God and his cx-
tcrnal and mechanical relations to the
world, this book may be of interest, but
il cannot be regarded as a help to that
wider understanding Of divine truth
which is finding new expression in the
inspiration OF the modern world.

Stock Market.

Kansas City, November 9, 1906 The cattle run was much small. CT this week than it has been run ming; 4SOO0 head, including 5000 calves. The election interfered with the movement to market, and better receipts are looked for next week. The general market Is 10 to b cents higher than q week ago, calves probably quarter higher. The run from the range country was liberal and about as many as usual, the shortage being mainly from Native territory. A drove of Hulett and Terrence steers sold at $4.50. COWS at $3.25, about the best we had from Colorado, although single cows sold up to $4.OO. Kill ing steers from Colorado and the panhandle range from S3.40 to S4.2O, outside of the above lot. stockers and feeders $3.25 to $4.OO. cows $2.50 to $3.35, best panhandle cows S3.l0, heavy calves $325 to S4.50, veals up to $500, bulls $2.OO to $2.50, canners $2.00 to $235. Probabl Y third more cattle could have been sold this week without hurting prices, as buyers have drawn on reserve stocks to fill the shortage rather than boost the market, but continued meagre re- ceipts would soon bring a sharp advance.
 Sheep and lambs are 15 to 25 cents higher this week, although closing the week little lower to- day on account of liberal receipts of medium to common range stuff last few days. Anything decent sells readily at strong prices Range lambs have sold at $6.75 ,o $7 40, fed westerns up to $7 6O.. range yearlings $5.75 to $6.0O, fed western yearlings $6.35, wethers $5.60, ewes $500 to S5.50 Feed ing lambs are worth around $500. feeding and breeding ewes $4.OO to- $5.OO, good breeding ewes would probably reach S5.25. Moderate runs and strong prices are expected.
