Total receipts

CATTLE-Receipts Of cattle today were
not large enough to amount to anything,
but for the week the total has been very
large. as will be noted by the figures at
head of column. These figures show not
only a liberal gain over last week, but a
ing week of last year. In spite of the
large receipts the market, though slow on
some days, has been very well maintained.
Beef steers during the early part of the
week were slow and there was some little
evidence of weakness, especially on the
warmed-up cattle lacking quality, such as
neither packers nor feeder buyers cared
for. In spite Of the apparent Indifference
of buyers the receipts were kept well
cleaned up, so that there was no accumula-
ton of stock In the yards. During the
latter half of the week, with lighter re-
ceipts and with a better demand, due TO the
presence of buyers for outside account, the
market frmed up until at the close of the
week good killing cattle are fully as high
as they were a week ago. Half-fat cattle
of inferior quality are possibly a little
lower 1t might be we'll to mention that
feeder buyers have been a great support
to the market, taking many Of the warmed
up cattle of good quality at better prices
than packers will to pay,
Cows and heiters were rather slow on
some days during the first half of the
week, but they. too, became more active
toward the latter part Of the week and at
! the close are fully as high as they were a
week ago. Some very good heifers have
! been received this week, one load selling as
high as A.75.
Stockers and feeders sold very freely
every day at good, firm prices. At the
| close Of the week they are as high as they
have sold any time this year Light
stoclSers having quality have been especially
/ good sellers

HOW TO CLEAN SILVER.

If the black spots on silver will not yield to careful cleaning with cleaning powder a very good method is to mix a little prepared chalk or whiting to a smooth paste with sweet oil, rub ping this we'll on the stained marks, letting it dry on and then finishing it off in the usual way with a channels skin or soft cloth.
 Another method is to apply in a similar manner a paste of hartshorn powder, procurable from a drug store, and spirits of wine. The last is a particularly good thing for brighten ing up silver in an emergency at any time.
 If, however, the black spots will not yield to this. try the following: Make a saturated solution of hyposulphate of soda, obtainable from any drug store, in just as much water as it will absorb
 Moisten every part of the stained silver with this saturated solution by means of a soft rag or sponge. In a few moments the black should all come off, when the pieces must be washed with warm water and soap, rinsed thoroughly in hot water and dried
 Make paste of fine whiting sifted into one ounce of spirits of turpentine and one ounce of spirits of wine.
 Apply to silver and leave until thor oughly dry. Brush off with soft wash leather

WHAT DEBUTANTEs WEAR.

Chiffon and velvet appeal this year to the debutantes and could anything be more girlish for fine costumes? The chiffon materials are very attractive made over satin or silk foundations, though few colored slips are worn only when the chiffon is colored. White is the choice, at present and the mode clings closely to empire and draped princess effects. There are velvet hands. for a dress of this kind, also velvet medallions woven from tiny cords of velvet and satin. The combina- tion is very handsome. One good style is the short waist with overhanging drapery of heavy lace, showing nar- row stripes of velvet cord on the edge. Velvet knots in miniature appear where there is any drapery effect on the waist or skirt.

WINTER DRAPERIEs.

Since the weather has turned cold CT the thin curtains look decidedly airy for the living room. The prettiest draperies for large double windows are of heavy red and yellow material which outline the sides and top of the window. The panes may be covered with a sheer white curtain, but a rud- dv glow pleasing to the inmates is shown by the outlines of warm colors
 Portieres to match may be used at the double doors. The pfettiest DOT tieres are those of mottled effect which match the rugs and are outlined bv plain borders in striped effect. Lovely fabrics for windows and doors can be purchased for 50 cents yard.

PIONEERING PLANTS.

There are several peculiar facts re- lating to Towering plants during the holiday season; first the very large de- mand and the comparative small va riety from which to select; second, the great scarcity Of color, almost every purchaser wanting something bright, while the great majority of plants at this season are white For an effective show and brilliant color the Poinsettia stands pre-eHinent, though the plant is not graceful as a specimen; arrang- ed in groups 1t is very showy. Do not let it get chilled or too dry; the term of beauty is only transient, so give 1t extra good care while it lasts. The Azaleas are just beginning to flower;
 with good care they should keep in bloom for month or so. To get per- feet success keep as cool as possible, do not keep too wet, neither let the flowers get wilted. The Primrose, both Chin csc and Obconita, are very reliable, and continue in bloom for several
 months. A light, moderately cool win-
 
 proper manner for success. The Sterla Is now in perfection, 8 very small graceful white flower with a delightful aromatic odor Ths only bulbous flow CTS vet ready are the White Roman Hyacinths and Paper White Nareissus, grown in pots or pans they thrive well in any situation. During next month ,.tx+t ,.fl rt
 bous flowers, the gay colored Tulips and the glowing yellow of different types of Narcissus will be In evidence. New we come to the showlest most cratic and most uncertain of all the
 Christmas towering plants, the Be- gonia Gloire de Lorraine. There is nothing prettier or more effective, but peculiar care is required. Keep neither too wet or too dry. Never expose to a col draft of air Keep warm and still; give changeof air as often as possi- ble. When a success it is a great sue cess, but if the leaves or flowers begin to drop, some radical change In treat ment Is absolutely necessary.
 The Ardisia makes 8 fine house plant, and the brilliant red berries and glossy foliage make as much show as a great many Towering plants. Keep in moderate temperature, and if insects are kept away the plant may be car ried through for a number of years, each season adding another circle of bright red berries in recognition of the care extended. The Jerusalem Cherry (Solanum) is not a plant to recom- mend for ordinary cultivation. +The warm moist heat of a greenhouse is almost needed, as without such care the leaves and fruit will fall off and leave nothing but the unsightly stems. ! As the days begin to lengthen the variety and quality of flowers in pots will be greatly increased, soon large assortment of bulbous flowers, Azaleos in numerous types, Cincrarias with the gorgeous purple flowers, and especial i ly the beautiful Cyclamens, the gem of all winter towering plants.

HOW MATING IS MENDED

Often in moving a heavy piece ( furniture the mating on the flod will have an ugly hole torn in it. I'll torn place is usually where 1t is tlI most noticeable and cannot be covere0 with a rug. There is an excellent wa to remedy this defect by darning tll place with raff1a of colorsy to matd the mating straw. It is much bettI than threads and the work can neatly done. It may be necessary run heavy cords across the woE through which the raff1a is to be wok en. The threads are sewed in plaE with large darning needle. ToN places on the edge of mating can remedied in the same manner. It best to sew mating together with loose stitch, using very heavy linE thread for the purpose, but where tl cannot be done then use the regut mating tacks or ordinary tacks, pld ing first one side, then the oppos side to prevent the baggy appearaI which so often occurs. Never use5 claw hammer to lift tacks from mi ting, since it invariably breaks straw. Get an old blunt chisel, placJ beneath the mating and tack heS pound gently with the hammer pry the tack up. This will draw
 tack out straight and leave the m ting unbroken. If mating is used a room during the winter, cover floor with paper covering and lightly with newspapers. The cold
 cannot penetrate a floor coveringl that kind.

BTTND MANS BUFF.

For a new game of blind mans buff form a large circle and number each person in rotation, as many numbers as there are players. Count out to as- certain who will be the first blind man. then place him in the center of the circle. He must then call two npm- bers quite widely separated like two and ten, and the ones having those numbers must take each others places If one can be caught, he is "it." If the blind man fails to catch anyone for some time he has the privilege of calling 100, when every one changes places, making 1t easy for someone to get within his reach. This is a good, joly game and children 1nva if

WINTER FOOTWEAR.

Storm proof shoes, which at first it was necessary to have made to order. are now procurable in ths regular shoe shops They are high-laced boots of heavy tan calf, specially treated to a process that makes the water run off them like the proverhial ducks back. This treatment renders them less smooth and pleasing in color than the ordinary russet shoe, but one must sacrifice something for the privilege of blowing rubberless through the rain with dry feet.

Baked Soup-This is easy to pre- pare on busy days, as it requires very little attention, and is excellent; the aroma does not escape as it does in boiling. Use large earthen beanpot.

Cook two hours, then add two cups shredded cabbage, four large potatoes sliced, two onions, one bunch of celery cut up; cover with hot water, season well and cook one hour; strain and serve hot. Very good and nutritious. The beef can be ground for hash or cro- quettes.

If the bandage is not very long wind another outside the first. A delicious coolness will immediately follow the application of this simple remedy and the pain is alleviated in "a very short time. When the dressing dries 1t is stiff and nodded to the shape of the joint. It gives most comfortable support and can be worn indefinitely. Should it happen to crack, wet that part with water and keep the ankle quiet until 1t dries again
 Children's hands are often disfig- |ured by warts and they can be cured in a simple way. Get hartshorn and sweet oil of equal mixture and paint the warts with this each day. It is slow, yet thoroughly satisfactory.
 Acetic acid touched to the most tena- cious warts will, in time, kill them
 and they can be easily removed. Most children, however, object to your cut

 they have a fear of its hurting. After: removing warts wash the parts with a weak solution of carbolic acid. 4 I lornp of peroxide of hydrogen in tha

The turning of the ankle caused by hign heels may or may not result in 8 serious sprain, but often the pain is severe and Is followed by a weakness of the joint An excellent dressing in such case is white of egg stirred, not beaten, with salt enough to make it the consistency of soft frosting. Plaster it on the ankle and smear what is left on the bandage of white cotton, which should be wound firmly about the ankle and fastened securely.

Unless one takes perfectly even stitches a seam sewed it's entire length by hand is a sorry looking affair when closely inspected. Machines do perfect work nowadays, and 1t will be quite a saving of time and labor to stitch a chemise seam, for example, on the machine Before doing this it will be the part of wisdom to see that the stitch and tension are working right, and this can be tested safely by using a small piece of the same cloth, two thiclInesses, just as the seam will be.

Tn treating cold sores 1t should be remembered that they require chemi- cal cleansing as well as healing, for, as a rule, there is some suppuration. While this remains the sore will con tlnue. Of two simple remedies for this trouble one consists of five drons of carbolic acid (pure) to one-half ounce of mutton suet. The latter must be melted by being put into a basin set into boiling water The acid should be beaten in quickly and the fat set away to harden. It may be used as frequently ss desired.

Some of the new skirts for dressy gowns have tunic effects, but rather carried out by an upper skirt of trim ming than by an upper skirt of the material,

 Such, at any rate is the opinion of many dressmakers, and were the tun- ic boldly launched for dressy sort of a winter toilette nobody in Paris would be taken much by surprise, so 1t is said.
 Still this is more likely to be brought out for very late rather than the early winter, and for evening rather than street wear.
 Because woman has passed middle age is no reason for adopting black and wearing it on all occasions, as if she were in mourning.
 The dark shade brings out in most pronounced way her lack of freshness and faded color, all the crows feet and lines in her face, and often throws shadows that give a drawn and haggard appearance to the skin.

 If inclined to embonpoint black in the dull, with white and cream about the neck, is more becoming and makes her look younger than when the dark colors are put directly against her face.
