Suddenly aunt opened The door OF an

A din here fell upon the air and
echoed through the great. fortress like

steaming pics. Over it hung Il llintlock

been decorated for the occasion with
creeping jenny and boughs loaded
with peaches that had been broken off
by a September gale. There was Il

After the family were seated Uncle
Zebedee was asked to say grace. He

Knife Handles Made Of Milk.

The white handles of those table
knives you bought recently are not
made of ivory, but of composition
consisting largely of sour milk. The
deception is perfectly honest, for the
price you paid would not have bought
genuine handles of any more liable
substance than bone. and the compost
ton looks better and cleaner, and Is
more pleasant to use.
The keys of your piano are probably
made of this same milk stone" and
Why should you grumble? They will
keep their color better than ivory, and
YOU will have the satisfaction of know

an elephant in its manufacture.

many thrifty feeders could have been
sold this week il they weighed around
a thousand pounds. Common light
cattle which made up the bulk of the
offerings did not meet with general
favor, and the market for that class is
10G zoe lower than a week ago. 1t has
been rather difficult to sell the COM

try buyers who visited the market this
week wanted something better. While
the best high bred feeders are quoted

high this week. and only a few went

stockyard Notes.

Most cows 5o475c off from high
time last week, those at s3.25@3.75
showing most decline.
Only choice steers show price APP
probation over a week ago, while med
Jun kinds are lower.
Bulls show 15@25c decline from a.
week ago and mostly 40m5Oc loss
compared with recent high time.
Prices Of Gamers and cutters were
10m zoe lower than week ago. this
decline having been suffered in late
days sympatheticaly with the beef
cows and heifers. Receipts were mod
crate all week but the feeble demand
for medium to good cows had bearish
influence on trade in this line Low
grade Gamers re selling at bedrock
prices, and it takes decent WIND to
land at $1.75M1.S5, while most cutters
have lately gone at s2.25M2.5o. In
ferior old shelly Gamers ranged lower.
The COW market has undergone great
depression this week. For a long time
prices have been unreasonably high
and buyers have been anxious to cut
them down but this was the first OPP
portunity that presented itself where
the advantage was OH the side of the
buyer. Western COWS are coming quite
freely and the natives have been seri-
ously neglected and probably will be
the rest of the range season Fat cows
and heifers were held up to an abnor-
NAL level by the fact that exporters
needed many of that kind to fill in in
place of the high priced steers which
they claim are losing them money.
This week the demand from that source
was much lighter and buyers soon shot
the market full of holes. Medium and
good COWS have declined 75c@$1 dur
ing the past ten days.
The severe break in prices for native
lambs dragged down values for offer
ipss from the western ranges. bulk of
such late this week going at soc loss
from early this week. considering the
heavier sort demanded by buyers.
While the better grades of range feed
