CATTLE-An unusually small run oil
cattle showed up today and included
very small percentage OF really desirable
beeves. Such as there were, however,
the dressed beef men picked up readily
at stronger prices and the trade Is clos
ing with values at the high point OF the
year and generally l5q2Oc higher than a
week ago. The sentiment in the trade
is that there are very few cattle In the
country as good as the beeves that
brought $50 on Thursday, and that these
toppy cattle will command stronger
prices right along, while the half-fatted
and unfinished grades are liable 20
weaken off some on account OF compeu-
ton from southwestern grass stock
The few cows and heifers on sale sofa
readily at good, strong prices and the
general market for butcher stock IS
higher than II has been any time during
the season. Demand from all sources
has been OF the most vigorous character
on account OF the general call for cheap
beef. and anything in the way OF she
stock good enough to attract compeu-
ton has found a ready sale at very high
figures all week. Veal calves are selling
readily at strong prices, and the same
Is true as TO bulls, stays and rough
stock generally, the market being Just
a little higher than week ago.
There was not great deal OF fadins
In stockers and feeders today, principally
for the reason that there was not great
deal of stock on sale, either fresh oil
stale. Country demand has not been
very vigorous during the week, but ow'
ing TO the very moderate offerings Of
This character and the active demand
from ward traders and order buyers tins
market has been strong throughout and
closing quotations are fully l0glbc higher
| than week ago.

MoLEsKIN COATS in FAVOR


Long coats Of moleskin are fad OF
the moment, and judging from the
number seen. they will continue Ia
popularity throughout the season.
They are lovely ii color and texture.
The pelts are supple enough for
graceful handling, but the fur is not
so practical as the tougher furs, nor
has 1t the permanent valus Of the
more expensive furs. ,
Goats showing two furs in combine
tion are also fashionable Hudson or
French seal and moleskin ia combina-
ton are popular and more effective
than one would imagine. The color
ing Is somber but rich. Long, straight
scarfs and huge NUNS made of these
two furs are very lovely, while MOLE
skin combined with ermine in long
: coats is beautiful, the soft gray and
white making most charming effect.
Cloth coats trimmed with moleskin
are very much more to be desired
than those trimmed with q cheaper
fur. These fur trimmed models are
made In ali degrees Of richness and
can be had at prices that suit the
purse Of any one buying handsome
coat.
Y Hats. motor bonnets and gowns are
trimmed with the soft fur which
blends we'll with almost any. color that
may be selected.

her what me, spelt,
Listen. Bobby. she said earnest
" Then closing her lips she pro
n0unced the sound OF long m. and
opening them, the sound Of a long o.
What does that spell?'
Bobby looked at her and shook his
head. Again she tried. and this time.
while pronouncing the sounds, she Wig
orously tapped her own rotund chest
with her plump forefinger.
Mmum, ee. What letters am say
ing and what do they speIl?" she
asked. still vigorously tapping her
chest.
4 don't know what the letters are,
replied Bobby, watching the plump
sforeinger. but guess they spell
