steers sold up to 600 Wednesday,
and the bulk of sales was at Ats
to $50. This week was record
breaker on cattle. The total run of
cattle on Monday was the largest on
record, being 49,12S cattle, but to-
day the wards seem to be pretty well
cleared UP of all classes of cattle,
which goes to show that they need
the beef.
The total run of sheep the first
half of this week was 80,600 a de-
crease Of 12,700 compared with the
same period Of last week and de-
crease of 80 800 compared with the
corresponding time last year. Trade
was slow from start to finish as
receipts were above requirements.
There were quite a number still un-
sold at late hour, although final
clearance was fair. All feeding stick
sold generally steady. Owing to
the fair weather we are having all
over the northwest, we would ad-
wise shipping all cattle and sheep as
soon as convenient, and hoping to
hear from you with a consignment
in the near future.

A Question We Must Meet.

Il Leslie's Weekly: To try to dodge
the issue is out Of the questios; So
cialism has got to be faced. In org
anized socialism England is much fur
ther advanced than the United States
For years the Social Democratic par
ty, the Fabian Society, and the Inde-
pendent Labor party have vigorousl
pushed their cause. In response to 6
long-felt need of some powerful move
ment to combat the dangers to the
state thus advocated, an Anti-Socialist
Union has now been organized in
England. Aside from a publication
department, unique feature Of tb
new union is school for speakers
Much OF the socialist propaganda is
carried on through public meetings in
halls and in the open air. Among
it's advocates are many men of nat
ural eloquence, who know the subject
well, at least from their own point
Of view The aim of the union, there.
fore, Is to secure staff of competent
and trained speakers to- meet in pub.
lie gatherings the arguments and the
cries of the socialist.

Anatomy for Beginners.

Thos. L. Mason in December Lip
pincott's: The brain is the head
quarters Of the nervous system and
contains the central Office of the Ana
tomical Telephone company.
When the suburban nerve cetre
says, Hello, Central" the brain eth
er replies, What NUMBER" or
Busy or ''Out of ORDER as the case
may be. Sometimes the wires are
crossed and the company fails to de-
clare and dividends, thus placing the
entire brain in the hands of a re-
ceiver.
From the brain issues the spine,
which is sometimes useful in matri-
mony, although rarely strong enough
in man for practical purposes, and
constantly growing weaker the long
er he is married.
On top of the head the hair grows
or is supposed to. In some cases,
however, it fails to grow despite the
most painstaking efforts.
In ladies there are two kinds of
hair: viz, imported and domestic;
in gentlemen also two kinds, namely,
permanent and transient. The perm
anent is seen in wild men; the tran
sient in civilized men, when young.
At one time all the hairs were care
fully numbered, but the practice has
been discontinued owing to the great
pressure of other matters.
a Good Piece of Advice for a Boy.
In the December American Maga-
zine, Stewart Edward White begins
a series of stories of boy life. If the
! remaining ones prove to be as good
as this first one, Mr.. White will have
produced as notable a piece of work
as he has yet given the public, and
that is saying a good deal, because
| he is the author of 'The Blazed
Trail, 'fThe Forest" and with Sam
uel Hopkins Adams) "The Mystery"
The first story in this new series,
which appear in the current Ameri-
can Magazine, is entitled Until the
Last Shot. without revealing the
story one may indicate its essence
J and its wholesome spirit by quoting
! the following brief extract:
| Bobby said Mr. Kincaid gravely,
always remember this all your life
no matter what happens to you: a
man is never defeated until the very

And remember this, too, that ev

How George Sand and De Musset Met
Metropolitan Magazine for December
There is no indiscretion in the pub
lication of these love letters. George
Sand preserved them and provided
for their publication; moreover, dur
ing the progress of this, as of others
of her amours, she confided it's daily
progress to Sainte-Beuvre and others
Of her friends. She had frank
may we not say French, delight in
her Importance and took good care
that it should lose no luster by her
neglect.
When, toward the end of June. in
1888, George Sand and Alfred de Mus
set met for the first time at dinner
given to the contributors of the
Revue des Deux Mondes, she was in
her thirtieth year.
Sainte-B Beuve had for some little
time urged the acquaintance upon her
but she held of. 81 would rather that
you did not bring Alfred de Mussef
to see me-" she told him. When she
did meet him, however, she changed
her mind; before the dinner was over
she had asked him to call, and accord
ing to Paul de Musset, he called two
or three time at intervals of a week,
after which they were always to-
gether.
The letters Of the First Series tell
the story of this period from the be
ginning of their acquaintance, to his
declaration of love. He was osten
sibly living with his mother at SO Ru
de Grenelle, but he spent most of his
time with George Sand and went
home only occasionally. BY August
he was installed in her mansard
| apartment, 10 Quai Malaquais. One
of her letters to Sainte-Beuve, dated
| August 25th, tells us, II have fallen
in love, very seriously this time, with
Alfred de Miusset.'' A month later
at the end OF September, they fec
for a brief honeymoon to the Franch
/ ard in the forest of Fontainebleau
and she writes to Sainte-Beuve, :"
am happy, very happy. !"
