Trade here was very satisfactory
towards the close of last week, prices
ON good cattle advancing Is to % cents.
Receipts were light owing to the
Christmas holiday intervening, but
rather heavier than the same week q
year ago. Beef stuff Of all kinds sold
rapidly. Steers brought $500 to 81. q
though choice feed lot stuff would have
brought more. Range cows of good
quality sold at S2.75 to 1876 and few
lunches from the northern Colorado
feed lots brought $40 to $3.50. The
market closed IN good shape with
prices 10 to Is cents higher than q
week ago. Most of the fair to prett.
good steers sold at 1925 to 1886 with
choice stuff at 800 and a little better.
Indications point to a strong demand
here after the first Of the year for all
classes Of cattle. Market today strong
to dime higher, receipts ! 200.
Hogs are now selling here at $3.50 to
81 so and the demand is good.
Sheep receipts last week were light
and under good demand the market
ruled firmer. Ewes brought $3.50 to-
day and yearlings $50.

HERE'S new word: "remi-
grant" 1t describes the immigrant
who has returned from America to
his native land. The remigrant is
not always the envied possessor Of
little fortune, which will enable
him to live at ease the simple life
of his ancestral valley. Austria
has lot of the returning pilgrims
on her hands just now, and doesn't
know what to- do with them. They
have no money, and there is no
prospect Of work. About the only
gamers in this seesawing business
are the steamship companies. The
steerage passenger business is a
veritable gold mine for them.
There is no such vast difference
In accommodations for such slight
difference in rates on any railway
system in the world as exists on
Atlantic steamers between steerage
and first cabin.-Epworth Herald.

BORROWED WIT.
IT WAS roo SHORT NOTICE.

"Old Uncle Jed" was so fond Of his
coppers az to have acquired the repu-

ingenuity to reconcile these conflicting
tastes
The citizens OF Millville were much
addicted to entertainments of a So
cial and edible nature called .subscrip-
ton parties and Uncle Jed was al
most invariably one OF the partici-
pants. He sacrificed his desire for
economy, however, by fasting for a
certain length OF time beforehand.
On one occasion party was hastily
arranged in honor OF transient guest
OF the town. and Uncle Jed was In

Uses FoR OLD WAISTS.
In Many Ways They Can BE Utilized
for Other Garments.

Discarded white shirtwaists are not
the useless articles they first appear.
One with pretty front may be cut
out In neck and arms for a corset
cover
A child's guimpe or a lady's chem
isette may also be cut from the por.
tions OF handsome waists, while turn.
over collars are easily obtained from
embroidered fronts. The edges are
bound around with bias folds Of mar.
row braid, says an exchange.
A plain Shirt waist forms 4 good
foundation for a chemisette OF sheer
material. as 1t aids In holding that de.
cidedly-inclined-to-wander article in
place. The sleeves and neck are cut
out. the armholes bound and the
chemisette stitched into position.
II desired the tail portion may be
cut away with extra bulk at that
point: A narrow hem will answer as
q finish.

THE triumph of the prohibition
idea in state and local elections is
making sentiment in Congress
which petitions by the mile could
not create. The distinguished
gentlemen who represent. us at
Washington are experts at seeing
the difference between signing a
petition and dropping ballot into
the box. Consequently they have
attained a frame of mind to give
respectful attention to a bill re-
Gently reintroduced. If passed
this bill will prevent the shipment
of liquors into dry territory aud
the consequent Gripping of local
efforts to overcome the evils of the
drink business. OF course it ought
to pass. And the longer it is de
layed the more congressman will
be asked to explain their indiffer.
ence to the popular will.

But we don't teach swimming, and
