On Wednesday, Dec. 10. at 8 a. m

wedding of Miss Sadie Helen Frank

The ceremony took place in the
hospitable home of DIR. Harvey, a
brother-in-law of DIR. Frank. Rev. E.
E. Gunckle of this city, pastor of the
NJ. E. church performing the cere-
mony, assisted by Rev Moore, pastor of
NJ. e. church at Hebron. A few init
mate friends were present Some line
and valuable presents were in evil
dence. A dainty five course breakfast
was served, a jolly time was had,
after which the friends had to part
to take the early train outof Hebron
rhe bride was beautifully gowned
in white crepe de chiene trimmed in
shadow lace and crystals; she carried
boquet of bridal roses; the groom
dressed in the usual black. The
home was decorated for the occasion
in white and lavender; the marriage
alter had four white bells under
which the bride and groom stood
while they took the marriage vow.
Dr. Frank is well known and held
in high esteem by the people of Ran
DALI She came here last spring went
into the practice of chiropractic, and
soon built up a fine practice, her
work being highly satisfactory and
helpful, she being graduate of one
of the best schools for this profession.
Dr. Frank soon after coming to Ran
dali united with the NJ. E. church,
took up the work of the church with
willing hand, taught class of girls
in the Sunday school and soon built
up the class numerically, and her
work in the church was felt for good.
Mr.. w. E. Traylor, the groom, was
for years a successful farmer. then
teaching in the public schools of Kan
sas where he built for himself repu-
tation as one of the leading educators
of the state, and for the last ten
years he has been in the banking
business at Utica, Kans., where his
bank is known as one of the strongest
institutions of the west. The bride
and groom will spend little while
in Kansas City, after which they
will be at home to their friends in
Utica A long and happy life is the
wish of their many friends to the
contracting parties. Randall News.

Can a boy laugh forever, girl
smile always, a horse keep his top
speed? Do we have picnics, banquets
blue bells and buckwheat cakes the
year round9 Oh, no. The birds don't
always sing nor the flowers always
bloom. The harp of a thousand
clock that is set in crystals in the
temple of time has to be oiled. And
that is whats the matter with Kan
sas.n They wound her up fifty years
ago set her on Gibralter, bedded her
with alabaster, threw away the key
and looking up in her smiling face
said G-lang. When she tried they
scolded her, when she Jagged they
dashed her, and when she stopped a
little they cussed her and wondered
what was the matter with Kansas.
They never, rested, whatever, or fed
her. Never oiled her up or bedded
her down. Just pounded an inch
deep and so she is taking year off.
She came from nothing in thirty
years to a state with more money to
the square inch of humanity than
any spot on earth. She started be-
hind and landed in front. For forty
long years the migratory grasshopper
has roamed the broad land seeking
something to devour and has to finally
came back TO Kansas to get square
meal. For forty long years these fer
tile fields and silent everlasting plains
have nodded to the touch of the man
who only tickeled the top or trified
with her generosity. For the same
forty years this valley of valleys has
been garlanded with wealth that
ranks first in the galaxy of states and
now that she is taking a day off and
waiting for you to stop and think
and pump a little of the pearly
waters upon her blistering bosom and
spread little of the wasted ashes
about her withered roads. Why
should you chide her? Water her
and she will smile again, feed her and
she will laugh again, treat her right
and she will take you to her arms
and cradle you on her generous bosom,
but she is the creature of nature and
will not be fooled with forever. In
short, Kansas has done more with less
provocation than any place on earth
and that is what is the matter with
Kansas.-Great Bend Tribune.

MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, Decem-
Der %, 1913. Cattle receipts drop ed
to holiday proportions to-day. 1000
head received, and as the demand did
not show a similar falling OFF the
market is 10 higher in most cases.
Stockers and feeders are exceptions,
and sell barely steady, a logical result
of the fact that the country generally
is going in for few days of celebrat-
ing whether the killers do or not.
Some fancy Hereford yearlings, as
good as they could be made, sold
yesterday at $50, the reduction in
price from week or 10 days ago be-
ing on account of the fact that Kill
lers could not dispose of the meat in
time to catch the Christmas trade.
Some steers sold at So. 80 today, native
cows up to 800. quarantine steers at
Sc. 90 to 800. The demand for meat
is likely to be restricted early in
January, but most commission men
believe cattle receipts will also be
light, and that prices will be higher.
The market on stock cattle and feed
ers is probably close to the low point
Oh ln0 Winter. L he OTuludTy RUE Is
for stockers and feeders to advance
35 to IS cents in January, and should
the fat cattle receipts be short and
prices on killing cattle higher, coun-
try grades are almost sure to advance
sharply next month. Sellers will put
up the argument that half the winter
is past, which has it's influence.
Hogs sold steady today at the open
ing, with the same top as yesterday,
$3.50, and bulk of sales ranged from
$40 to 81. IS. Receipts today 1900
head, which is 1000 less than came
in last Tuesday. Small receipts are
expected tomorrow and balance OF
the week, and while pork consump-
ton will be reduced for a week OF
two, future prospects look favorable.
Sheep and lambs arrived to the
number of 10000 head and the market
is Is to % higher, following similar
advance yesterday. Kansas fed West
ern lambs sold OF $500 today, which
price is half dollar higher than the
close of last week. Ewes bring up to
s475.

SATURDAY. DEC 81, 1913

For the first time in quite num-
Der of years this section of the coun-
try enjoyed white Christmas. There
was enough snow unaccompanied by
wind or extreme colo to make the day
perfectly ideal for real Christmas
celebration. That every one seemed
happy and possessed the Christmas
spirit and atmosphere was evinced by
the hearty greetings that were heard
on all sides. The churches celebrated
on Xmas eve by rendering excellent
programs and having Xmas trees for
the children. Numerous dinners were
given among relatives and friends
throughout the town and the day

What the Farmer Gets.

'sWhat does the farmer get from
the Wilson Underwood tariff bill,
asks the Los Angeles Times. 'tHe
gets it in the neck as Roosevelt
would say. The Democratic party
uses him as the misery farmer used
the boys. He gave them so cents
each to go without their suppers and
charged them 80 cents each for their
breakfasts.
''The new tariff enables the farmer
to buy the things he consumes and
the implements he uses for SO less,
and then compels him to accept from
$40 to $50 less for the articles he pro-
duces.
"Wheat is now protected by duty
of % cents per bushel-the new tariff
places it on the free list. France i'm
poses duty of 81 cents per bushel on
wheat, Germany As cents, Austria SO

The absolutely charming feature of
the law is that, while we are to adj

Canada imposes duty of 20 cents
per bushel and Mexico A cents per
