The absurd practice of printing bills
of fare in French evidently annoyed
the patriotic Britisher. After glancing
down the card he called the head wait
er before him.
Il don't want any of this stuff" he
exclaimed. Haven't you anything fiji
to eat? Got any sine qua non?"

"Any tempus fugit? Any sine die
No? Well, bring me some sempter

Very sorry, sir, but I'm afraid we
haven't any," the man said, trying tc
edge away.
ooh, we'll, bring me some pluribus

in his chair.
Seems to me Tves heard of that
muttered the man, and rushed to the
kitchen, only to return with haggard
look upon his face.
"Ain't got that, either!" he said, des-

Unprofessional Critics.

An assistant in the Philadelphia
Free library has been collecting for
two years the frank, terse criticisms
that crude readers dash off in the
books they take out.
Everyone must have remarked, In
free library books, the trenchant crit

the end of the last chapter.
From such phrases the Philadelphia
collection was made. The following are
extracts from it:

The Fife.
chambers Journal. }

(CndHDeTS JOuTIldlJ
It Is said by some that we owe the
fife-"ear piercing" as Shakespeare
calls ito the Swiss, and Sir James
Turner, who busted himself in writing
on military matters, names it the "Al-
lemaine whistle" In France it was
employed at least as early as 1884, in
which year it was ordered by Francis
l. that each hand of 1000 men was to
have four drums and two flies.
A few yrs later in England, we
find "drommes and ffyffes" included in
the muster of London citizens. Shake
speare refers to the musician, not the
instrument, when he speaks in "The
Merchant of Venice" of "the vile
squealing of the wry necked fife" An
old writer observes, indeed, that
"fyfe is wry neckt musician, for he
looks away from his instrument"
About the reign Of James II. the fife
lost it's popularity for time, Sir
James Turner observing, with us any
captain may keep a ffer in his COM
pany and maintain him, too, for no
pay is allowed him, perhaps just as
much as he deserveth."

Suckers and Feeders.

The rapid advance in fat cattle has
encouraged farmers to hold back all
their little steers which they can cas-
ily do at small expense, because there
is an abundance of grass. On the
other hand. high prices have increased
the demand for desirable stockers and
feeders. and competition is very strong
lust now. Prices for stockers are
about as high as they have been any
time this year, and many more could
be sold at the prices than are coming.
Traders do not look for many feeders
till the western cattle start to- come.
and prospects are favorable for high
prices unless there is break in fat
cattle. which will discourage opera
lions in the feeder line.

Grinnell, June Sin spite of the many
storms and the delay in the arrival Of
friends, Grinnell presents a busy scene
in these commencement days. Rev. b.
o. Tade, Of La Jolla, Cal, who was ex-
pected to deliver the address last even
ing before the associations sent word
at the last moment that it was impos-
sible for him to be here, and his place
was taken by Professor Stops. The
alumni prayer meeting and the vesper
services of yesterday afternoon were
we'll attended and full of interest. The
Congregational church was crowded in
the morning to listen to the baccalau-
reate address Of President Main. 1t was
pronounced one of his best efforts. The
class day exercises took place at Her
rick chapel at 10 o'clock this morning,
and were renewed on the campus at
8: 80 this afternoon. In both cases was
shown the usual vigor and originality.
The senior play, The Professors Love
Story" is already assured a full house
for this evening at the Colonial To-
morrow, at 10 in the morning, will be
given the "Hill contest in extempo-
raneous speaking and sight singing" at
Herrick chapel, after which come the
alumni reunion and the annual meet
ing of the alumni association. In the
afternoon the alumni base ball game
will be played on Ward field. In the
evening, at Herrick chapel, the Phi

Women.

Success never comes to the woman
who is afraid of doing more than her
share.
Most men marry to get somebody
they can supervise. Most women marry
to get somebody they can reform.
No matter how witty the sarcastic
woman is, she never seems to have a
lot of friends.
The woman who never forgets any
thing never forgets to boast of it to
everyone she meets.
You are not likely to cheer the hearts
of others by looking down in the
mouth yourself.
The difference between meddling and
investigating is that you always inves-
tigate, while it is the other person who
NEEDLES.
The most heavenly pictures seen on
earth are men and women doing COM
mon loving kindnesses.

Receipts Liberal Today, But
Proportion of Good Cattle

HOGS STRONG TO TEN HIGHER
Packers Were Slow in Getting Into the

tors Bought Freely Today = Excel
lent Demand for Sheep, Which Were
Strong and Considerably Higher.

Chicago, June Seattle were steady
to 10 cents lower, the latter in butcher
stuff. Receipts were liberal, but the
proportion Of good cattle was light
After the sensational advances in
prices reaction seems due. Texas
has been handicapped in marketing
grassers by reason OF floods and when
shipments from that state again move
freely, together with an expected in
crease in marketing of native grassers,
the trade looks for considerable de-
cline in prices for plain, medium and
good beef steers. Consumption. is now
of slim volume owing to high retail
prices and the killers will welcome
an opportunity to put down cattle
prices and thus be in position to
tempt greater consumption by Offering
the beef at lower figures.
Hogs.
Hogs We're strong to 10 cents higher
Shippers and spectators bought free
ly, but packers were tardy in getting
into the market.
Finished, corn-fed hogs promise to
be as scarce an article in market cir
cles before long as beef of the same
quality. There is premonition of de-
terioration in quality of a premature
movement of grassy, light stuff, on
which packers frown without conceal
ment. The country will not feed corn
20 hogs at present and prospective
prices while the stock can pick up a
living on grass and it will be marketed
regardless of condition.
Sheep.
Sheep were strong and 10@15 cents
higher. There was excellent demand.
At present mutton would seem to
be about the cheapest meat on the list
but packers claim they have not been
able to get enough beef this week to
equalize shipments and hence have not
been able to ship out the mutton.
Supply in feed barns around Chicago
was further reduced last week and
another week or ten days will effect
clearance. Feeders are sick of the
game and have been getting out re-
CARELESS of cost.
Never before have feeders handling
sheep and lambs lost money in such
liberal chunks. Half-dollar declines
have been registered each week for
past. Many feeders held back,
paying high prices for feed, in conf
dence that the other fellow would
finally get out of the way developing
a hard spot. But instead of firm foot
ing a veritable quagmire developed.
