Kansas City Stock Yards. June g.
The cattle run last week footed up
$4,000 head, which was three thousand
more than previous week. and five
thousand more than some week last
year The market on fed steers above
the middle grade was strong all week.
and a new high top for the spring
months. at S635. was made. Below
the middle class steers prices declined
little, because of the increasing num-
Der of cake fed cattle from the south,
now being put on all the markets,
which latter class answer the same
purpose as the cheap corn fed steers,
and do not cost as much money. The
spread between the best and the forst
has thus been widened, something that
should have happened to the market
months ago. The run today is 5000
head here, only two-thirds as large as
on last Monday There are fewer dry
weather cattle here today than a week
ago. but there are more quarantine
cattle but the shortage today is most
! ly in corn fed cattle. These are sell
ing strong today, in fact all kinds are
stronger, though stockers and feeders
are considerably lower than a week
ago, the decline on those classes in
the last ten days amounting to 25 to
60 cents, most on stock cattle Top
steers today $6.15, bulk of steers from
corn fed territory $5.25 to S6.1O, quar-
antine steers mostly at $3.50 to $5.25,
though there are several droves of
good weight Texas cake fed steers
here today at $3.50 to $50. Heifers
in the native division range from $3.50
to $500, bulls $4.00 to $3.50, calves
$500 to $3.50, feeders $500 to $3.50
stock steers $425 to $5.25, stock cows
and heifers $500 to $425.
The hog market will not down, mar.
ket at the close of last week in almost
the same notch as at the close of pre-.
vious week, and prices to 10 higher
today. A number of loads sold at the
top price today 5000. and bulk OF
sales runs from $5.S5 to 5000 There
is some bearish talk heard, which may
have some truth in it if receipts hold
up heavy, but hogs are still cutting
up at profit, and any reduction in
the supply will likely more than off
set falling off in the demand for lard
and meats, which some packers fore
cast Chicago's run today fell seven
thousand below the estimate made al
the close of last week for today, and
packers evidently see no burdensome
run ahead for this week, from theil
strong bids today.
Sheep and lambs recovered Is to 2.
cents from the low spot last week by
the end of the week, and though thu
supply today is 1900 head, prices arr
: nearly steady. Some Texas wetheri
brought $4.00, same as they brough
Thursday and Friday, Arizona sprinl
lambs reached $500 today, a remuner
ative price, and Arizona wethers alst
made $400. Ewes are selling at $3.50
to 1885, goats $500 to $40, with cul
stuff down below $500, and feeding
sheep worth $500 to $3.50.

Oklahoma City, June 6.-Better un-
dertone to cattle trade this week, and
there has been slight advances on
some kinds. Receipts here continue
light, and the beef supply has been
mostly of the grass kind, selling from
$3.65@455. Fat cows and heifers are
very scarce, and anything good in
either line sells fully as good as the
best time last week. Calves are strong
with veals bringing $6.OO07C0. Stock
er and feeder trade is dull, the result
of the warm spell the past few weeks,
although there is a good demand for
anything in this class.

Daily Horoscope
SThe stars IacIIne. but do mot
compel"
Friday, January 40, 1911.
Now Saturn doth inspire
Steadiness Of desire.

THEY who are steadfast in intention
l and purpose now will fare well in
their undertakings according to the in
depreciation of Saturns relative posi-
ton with the Sun. There is a tendency
toward stability and force in mankind,
and favorable influence for those who
exercise self-control, magnanimous jus
tice, and calmness of opinion.
In this respect it is essential for sue
VesS and well-being that all methods
and actions be exceptionally frank and
candid. Hidden motives, deceptive
words, intrigue, misleading reservations
and innuendO are under signs that are
read by astrology as making for tenn
porary victory and lasting disaster"
1t will be well this day to avoid all
dealings with mistrustful persons or
with those who are known to be ma
liCious and revengeful. All the evil pas
sions and emotions are under cardinal
signs of evil.
Rash people are in danger Of under
taking personally hazardous risks to-
day without reason or necessity, i'm
pelle6 simply by blind impulse.
Persons who aim exclusively at world
ly success must be exceptionally heed
full about their steps, as otherwise they
will be in danger of greedily doing
something that later will result in dis
grace and great trouble.
This day is marked as excellent for
all matters concerning the earth and its
produce. Real estate is held to be EIn-
der good signs in such conjunctions.
Persons with this birth-date will do
well to keep their mental powers alert
for conflict, but to restrain their merely
combative and argumentative impulses,
and to study each side dispassionateIy.
Children born under tOdays aspects
should be trained to impartial reflection
and consideration.

Shiny Nose.

Reader-A few drops of benzoin in
the water in which you battle your face
will help you dispel the "shininess'' CT
your nose. Use little cold cream be-
fore powdering the face. This will also
be a help.
90 l would suggest the use of olive oil
for your scalp. Apply a few drops
to the scalp once a week, keeping it as
much off the hair as possible. Use an
eye-dropper for the purpose, and rub
the oil well in with rotary movement
1t will cure the scalp of dandruff, stim-
uIate the growth of the hair, and, at
the same time, be entirely harmless.
90 Caustic applied to warts will usual

The Dear Old Songs of Home.

reQueSt)
At set of sun, when day was done,
Like silver chime of bell,
Rose on the air, with evening prayer,
The songs 1 loved so we'll.
Still in my ear they're ringing,
And memories old are bringing,
Like gentle shower, of boyhood's hour
With subtle power, where'er I roam,
OF mother sweetly singing,
Singing,
Sweetlv singing,
The dear old songs of home.
No time can blot this fragrant spot,
This chino of silver bells;
But oft my heart, with sudden start,
The secret surely tells,
When mid the glad bells ringing,
With holy thoughts upspringing,
Now tairt. then clear, again hear
In accents dear, where'er I roam,
My mother sweetly singing,
Singing,
Sweetfv singing,
The dear old songs of home.

CREATIONS
IN FOULARD SILKS
Draping Will Be Keynote of
the New Spring
Gown.
.HE new bordered fouIards are

~ HE new bordered foulards are
wonderful. They are imported
from Lyons, France, and the pat
terms reveal the French love of the
artistic and beautiful. The presence of
the border, Of course, indicates that
draping will be the keynote of the new
spring gowns-indeed, the latest fashion
bulletins in Paris show fragile. willowy
ladies swathed in soft clinging silks
and cIiffons and, the hobOle more pro-
nounced than before. My Lady of the
Spring, therefore, with her broad, fiat
hat, and the smallest of high-heeled
shoOn, will look more like an inverted
cone than ever.
Where there is a wide or a double
border it is used for the hobble band,
instead of silk of a contrasting color,
gowns. a handsome pattern in black
and white has solid, dead-black
center, while the white is introduced in
the very wide border in a bold sCraWly
design. For a tall, graceful woman, on
whom the border could be draped to
advantage, this silk would make a
stunning afternoon or street gown.
There are many designs, all showing
the French knack for combining ColoFs,
dots and floral figures on a plain ground,
and the more expensive silk with the
elusive faconne background and the
flowers and spots sUperimpOsed. Especi-
ally FrenChy are the silks with a bOr-
der resembling lace and, as for polka
dots, il may be said that these are
larger than ever.
Width is another characteristic of the
new fOular rds. The most of them rang
ing from A to As inches, and there are
many degrees of quality. which make
the price also a variable quantity-from
$l.5O to S3.50 AS for colors, the blues,
browns, black and white are the fav-
gradation of each. 1t Is said that Chif-
fons and marquisettes will be draped
over many of these silks. and that this
is one of the reasons why the patterns
are so large.

Seems More Play
Than a Lesson.

Perhaps it seems more play than les
son, but the next time Ned sees a loco
motive be sure his eyes will look for
smokestack, cab, and wheels, and the
relative positions of the parts will be
much less confusing to him than IL he
had never played with the cube Of
blocks.
If. some day, as you proudly turn to
Ned and say, There, darling, see the
clock mother has built. Don't you
think ii looks like the clock in the par
lor?" Ned answers gruff1y. 'Naw-dOn't
look like a clock. It's just blocks, that
what 1t is" don't be discouraged. 1t
only means that you and the child have
played blocks a little too long.
His growing body needs movement,
which you must supply at once in the
form of a romp out of doors, or a
game of tag in the house If the day is
stormy. He will return to his cube the
next day with as much pleasure as ever.
II he does not, try something else for a
while. But never doubt that all the
games serve their purpose.

Black Velvet Bags
Replace Gold Purses

The gold mesh purse, which is so dear
to the heart of women, has been almost
supplanted by the black velvet bag.
They are made of thick velvet and
are framed In gold or silver. They are
variously shaped, but all are suspend
ed from the arm by heavy silken cords
and tassels, very long, 30 that the bag
drops to the knees. Some are elaborate
ly beaded, but generally the fabric is
of so fine a quality that It needs no
