All signs point 10 a very decided de-
crease In the wheat receipts from now
on, which is a very encouraging argo-
ment on the side OF the buyers.
There is a remarkably strong tone TO
cash values In all positions. Cables we're
a little easier today and this acted as a
check to the early advance, but sentiment
is bullish. and IL corn continues firm
higher values will be sure to come.
Conservative bulls in corn who have
been taking profits, expecting values 10
break under heavy run TO market, have
misjudged the situation, as values are
stsll advancing. The very heavy demand
has absorbed the heavy offerings, as q
result of a near famine In coarse grains
is being experienced.
Wheat ruled firm and higher on buIlish

was rather bearish and closing values
were unchanged
Corn was strong and higher. Sentiment
continues bullish and values were ad-
Nanced by shorts covering. Cash values

HARD PROBLEM FOR WOMEN
Where Shall Minister Be Entertained When He Makes Pastoral
 Call on Servant?

About the hardest problem I have had to solve in my brief housekeeping career, said the woman, ''is what to do with the pastor when he calls on a servant girl We have a good girl. She is a regular attendant at a chapel in the neghborhood. Every so often the pastor or his assistant in his rounds of the parish calls on her.
 'I am heather myself in the mat ter of religious observances. neverthe- less know what is due to gentlemen of the cloth. The best room about the house should be at the disposal of ones spiritual adviser always. Should Lucy. then, receive her guest in the parlor. or should they compromise in the dining room2 The kitchen as a place for entertaining the minister is quite out of the question.
 @So far. the ministers calling at my house have been spared even the in- dignity of a dining room reception. I have taken to the back regions my self while Lucy held forth in the par Tor. I know other women with church going maids who are equally consider ate Altogether this is a delicate point on which we need some enlignten- ment from the etiquette experts.

FINE PRE-NORMAN CHURCH
Remarkably We'll Preserved sdifoe at Worth Was Built Long Before
 the Conquest.

Many churches in Britain owe their origin to the piety of the Norman in- vader, but these which antedate this great period of church building are not so numerous. One such preNorman edifice is the fine old parish church of Worth, near Three Bridges A little book, written by Rev. Arthur Bridge, the rector of Worth, tells the his- tory of what is aptly described as one of the most remarkable relics of a bygone age. It seems probable that the church passed with the Manor of Worth under the will of Alfred the Great to his third son Ethelward Archaeologists will be lavish of thanks to Mir Bridge for the interesting and useful little record of his unique church. He tells us that Worth ex- hibts the earliest example of the pure ly English cruciform building, and it's semi.circular eastern end is of very an- cient date But the whole church. as might be gathered, possess many fea- lures which make II of peculiar fascin- atioH to the student of the antique. The windows. for instance, have not suffered restoration. and are well known to all students of architecture here and on the continent.-D4ndee Advocate.

He is free to buy, paying l a profit to distillers, brewers jobber retailer and express company what he is prohibited from making of his own homemade material.
 My advice to the people of Arkan. sas is to vote local option. for when a county votes local option, she can en- force the laws. but when you put a law on a people, that they don't want you never can get that law enforced J. k. SCANLAN. l Bee Branch. August 10. 1912.
