It was thus when Texas Jack rode
into one end OF the town on his cayuss
and Arizona Jim rode into the other.
They had never met, but there was
bad blood between them, and they had
threatened to shoot on sight. On this
occasion they came cunning for each
other. At the cross streets In the CEN
ter Of the town they met. Their horses
were stopped within ten feet Of each
others noses, and the two noted men
sat and looked at each other for .
long two minutes. Then they looked
around them. Only one man was near
by and giving them any attention, and
he was cross-eyed. The town was
asleep. The men realized it as their
eyes sought each other again.

AS THE CHINESE KoWToW.
Time-Honored Manner Of Giving
Thanks and 1s Done with
Dignitary.

The kowtow pronounced ker-toe.
and meaning literally to bow the head)
is used as a form Of thanks, and is not
a manner Of greeting, says Katharine
A. Carlis, in I'm the Court Of the EN-
press Dowager," in Century. The
actors kowtow to their majesties at
the beginning and end Of each per-
formance at the theater, first to thank
for the honor they are to receive In
being allowed to act before them, and
at the end to thank for the privilege
granted. The oficials "bow the head"
to thank for an audience or any favor
or gift they have received or are to re-
ceive from their majesties. The kow-
tow is not only made by people at the
palace and at imperial audiences; it 10
sometimes used by equals to each 9TH
or as proper manner os thanking for
some great favor. To rake the kow-
tow, the person kneels three times, and
each time bows his head three times.
touching the ground with it. The
kowtow could not be made by for.
eigner without looking most awkward
and appearing most servile, but the
Chinese do it with dignity, and 1t Is
neither ungraceful nor degrading. It
is q time-honored manner Of giving
thanks. Chinese tradition surviving
from time when the courtiers were
perhaps like slaves; but at present It
does not imply any slave-like inferior.

Swift & Company

Louis, st. I'D sph. St. Paul and Fort
Worth. The same methods Of purchas-
ing cattle. sheep and hogs prevail at
all cities. At Chicago. which is the
largest market, there are about two
hundred and fifty buyers, representing
packers. local slaughterers in various
cities, and exporters. OF this number,
less than score are employed by
Swift Z Company.
The farmer ships his live stock to
Chicago, consigns them to q commits
sion firm at tho Union Stock Yards,
who sees that they are unloaded and
put in pens. Then the buyers inspect
them, make their offers to the commits
sion dealer, who accepts or rejects as
his judgment dictates. All buying must
be finished at o'clock each day. and
the buyer must pay spot cash. II the
commission man has no satisfactory
offers, he can hold his stock over to
the next day. He gets his commission
from the farmer, and naturally strives
to get the highest possible price for
his client.
Wholesale Distributing Hsuses.
A wholesale distributing house Is a
giant refrigerator. but instead Of
shelves there are trolley rails. from
which are suspended hooks to hang
the carcasses. Some Of the houses cost
as much as q hundred thousand dol
lars to build and equip. As rule
they are OF pressed brick, the insides
being lined-hoor, walls and ceiling
with highly polished hardwood. The
floors are covered daily with fresh saw
dust and all are kept spotlessly clean.
There are over three hundred Of these
Wholesale houses in various cities Of
the United States, and the public II al
ways welcome to visit them.
Pacling Plants.
All the Swift Z Company plants are
located at the great live stock markets,
in the heart Of the great agricultural
sections, where can be purchased the
finest grades Of cattle. sheep and hogs.
We have seven packing plants, employ
ing at each from two to eight thousand
persons.
The following gives the locations
and sizes Of the different plants.
