USING CIGAR BANDS

Perhaps there is no more popular
fancy at present than thsJ of decorating
with cigar bands
The materials needed are cigar bands,
a. glass plate OF bowl a piece of felt.
tiufoiI. d bottle of paste and bottle Of
liquid glue.
Perhaps the easiest thing upon which
90 experiment is q shallow glass bowl.
This should be FIVE, six or more inches
in diameter and about one inch deep.
1t is well 90 understand, though, that
the larger the plate is. the easier il Is
to manage
One may start decorating by placing
the ccuterpiece and fasten their outer
ends 10 the edge of the bowl.
For this purpose use photograph paste
or FISH glue.
Decorate the space between these
main bands according TO taste and ill
up all open spaces with tinfoil.
Many beautiful designs may be made
by working similarly shaped bands or
different cOIors into stars. circles and
squares.
When the design is finished. put a
heavy coat OF any strong liquid glue
about an inch wide around the edge OF
the bowl. then stretch over the entire
back a piece of dark red or green felt.
In the same manner glass plates. to-
baCcO iurs. gldsses and ashtrays may be
decorated.
Old vases also make Sood foundations
HGge bottles with large neCks may in
this way be transformed into charm
ing Japanese-l0Oking ornaments.
A president" plate may be made by
using a picture OF George Washington
DIS a centerpiece and grouping around il,
in circular form, the cigar bands bearing
the pictures Of the different Presidents
Of the United States.
Red, white, and blue bands alone
should be used in this color scheme.
Kodak pictures may be used as center
pieces and many a girl viii consider her
self fortunate 20 receive a picture OF
herself in such an attractive frame.
Old wooden stands may be reJuVenated
u ike manner.
After covering wood or any non-trans-
parent material with bands. however,
the surface should be covered with a
thin coat of shellaC and then vanished
HandkeTChiefs boxes. glove boxes and
letter boxes made OF wood may be all
treated i'm this manner.
In regard to the cost OF the material,
t Is hard 90 make an accurate estimate,
inasmuch the prices vary in different
places.
However. a package containing fifty
cigar bands, two centerpieCes and one
piece of tinfoil may be bought for Is
cents.
The tinfoil, which comes in different
coiors. may be bought al cent per
sheet.
The glass plates and trays vary from 3
cents up 70 . cents apiece.

SHEEP-1he unfavorable conditions due
to the clogging up Of the eastern consump-
tive channels which prevailed all last week
were still strongly in evidence this morn
ing. While the local receipts were only
moderate heavy runs were reported at Chi
cago, Buffalo and other points At the
same time the demand was not very urgent
at any point, with the result that a weak
feeling prevailed everywhere The packers
here evidently wanted a few good sheep
and they were not long in selecting the few
loads that they needed this morning. pay
ing prices that were about steady for such
as happened to please them. The demand,
however, even for the good kinds was lin
tied, with little or no call for the common
to medium grades. In consequence the
market closed slow and weak on all kinds.
Some right good ewes which brought IS 20
last week sold high as $50 today, with
the general run of the desirable killers go

as high as SO, with wetners and yearlings

they were all disposed OF.

were considerably heavier than one week

ago, II being the heaviest Mondays run 50
far for the month The general quality Of
the cattle was nothing very extra, the

The situation in the beef trade was
rather favorable to the sellers advices
from other selling points being generally
favorable while the local demand was
quite sizable. The market opened early.
was fairly active and the big bulk of the
arrivals changed hands in good season.
The prices paid were fully steady and in
a good many cases probably a little
stronger than on Friday of last week. 1t
was, in fact, a fairly steady market all
the way through
Cows and heifers were in fair supply,
not far from twenty-five cars being re-
ported on sale. The market was in about
the same condition was that on beef
steers. that is, the demand was good, the
trade fairly active and prices steady to
strong.
There were a good many stockers and
feeders in the yards this morning espe-
cially hay-fed westerns. Fortunately for
the selling interests, there was also a
very good buying demand. Specula tors
cleaned up their supplies very well last
week so that they were practically out
to take on fresh load, The result was
that the market opened active at good.
strong prices and the cattle in first hands
were all disposed of in very fair season.
The demand was so good that feeder buyers
took quite a good many of the warmed-up
cattle which had been shipped in for beef.

HOGS-There was a very fair run OF hogs
this morning for a Monday, eightyseven
cars being reported in. The market opened
2iRc higher than the close of last week and
was fairly active at the advance The early
sales were largely at s. .Slaq5. 40, with the
best hogs selling up to s5.+5 and a top at
So AN. Some OF the heaviest packers, how
ever. were on the bear side and as soon as
the more urgent orders were filled the mar
ket eased off, closing with most Of the ad-
vance lost. While the later market was not
so active the hogs were practically all sold
ny 10 o'clock in the morning, except a few
odd loads that came in late. As will he
noted from. the sales below a considerable
proportion Of all the hogs sold at IS 37l9Gf
B. 40, while on Saturday three-fourths of the
sales were at s.. 35d5. 37lR. The top-$5.I1i%-
was 2Lc higher than Saturday. The
strength this morning puts the market up
to point that is shade higher than last
Monday.
