What Makes a Woman?

One hundred and twenty pounds, more or less, of bone and muscle don't make woman. Its a good foundation. Put into 1t health and strength and she may rule king man.

 Market Letter for the Past Week.
Kansas City Market Letter
cBy J. A. RioRart, Correspondent


 Kansas City Stock Yards, July 8, 1912. Prime cattle continue firm selling at 900 to o.55 here during the last week, though the best here today stopped at o.Io. Good to choice cattle are shade lower than a week ago, though selling strong to 10 higher today. Middle and low grades are steady to strong to day but 20 to 50 cents under a week ago. High class trade at the best hotels and res taurants, and at seaside resorts is calling for the usual amount of the best beef available, which in keep ing the market on the best cattle in good shape, but the rank and file of meat consumers are taper ing down in their requirements, hence the vigorous pounding of the kind of cattle that furnish meat for the ordinary butcher shops. The run here today is 1000 head very light for this late in July. It shows that owners are lndepend-
 T ent, with plenty of grass and water. They are apt to resent any harm done to the market, such as was done last week through the balance of this month. Slim receipts are sure to elevate prices on even the lower grades, a local order buyer just back from a scouting expedition through the east says they are beef hungry there, and such runs as appeared today are not large enough to fill the demand. Greenwood county cattle were prominent in the re- ceipts today, tops selling at $40, 1920 pounds. Heavier steers with less quality brought less money. Steers brought up this spring sold at 6.75, HOO pounds, admitted by the salesman to be higher than a cats back, Wintered quarantines brought 6.oo, medium to common grassers 4.25 to 6.25. Hogs had a bad week, but turned upward today, 5 cents higher, top 7.55, bulk '. 30 to 7.5o, run entirely inadequate, at 5000 head. Sheep and lambs have recuperated a5 to s cents since a week ago, and are 10 higher today. Top spring lambs 8.oo, yearlings 5.75, weathers AIS ewes 4.3o.

MILLIKAN Is HEARD ON
ELECTRlClTYS THEORY

Augustana had a visit from one of
the greatest scientists of the country
last night, Professor r. A. Millikan
OF Chicago university, who lectured
under the auspices of the science club
on 1.-The Atomic Theory of Electric
ity." Professor Millikan has made
very much research in this line and
because of his work has been hailed
as one of the leading scientists of the
country. He leaves for Germany
next month, where he will give SER
les of lectures on this subject.
In a very interesting manner Pro-
fessor Millikan explained how he had
isolated an electron and viewed it
through an apparatus. After he had
finished he wanted to know what all
this had to do with the practical
problems of today. He then claimed
that within the past rs or 80 years
the conditions under which man lives
| have been completely transformed
and that as much has been accom-
plished these last 80 years as dur
/ ing the whole history of the world
the last so years excepted. The cause
for all this Professor MiIlikan sait
was that men in large numbers haC
become interested in ferreting GU
natures secrets. The finding out O.
these secrets means an increase II
opportunity and chance of learning
how to control nature and TO turl
those hidden forces to our own &C
count. That, he claimed. this seem
ingly useless work was for. DR.. ].
