REPRESENTATIVE
INDIANAPOLIS SALES

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. n.-Hogs-
Good prices for hogs on the local mar
ket last week are reflected in a big
increase in receipts this week, but so
far buyers have not been successful in
revising prices very much in their
favor. There was a lack of outside
support in the market today but local
packers took hold freely and at least
two-thirds of the supply sold al steady
prices. Later there was a loss of
about cents.
Cattle-Any difference in the cattle
market was again interpreted as be-
ing favorable to the selling side.
Suckers and feeders are at 10 to Is
cents higher than last week. Bulls
continued steady and calves contin-
ued strong to 20 cents higher.
Sheep-There was enough compe-
titiOn among buyers to provide an act
i've outlet at strong to higher prices

John Burroughs and Ernest Thomp-
son-seton Unite In Appeal to
Pupils In ". 8.

New York.-John Burroughs and
Ernest Thompson-Seton issued Joint
appeal to the school children of Amer
lea in which they say:
An urgent appeal we make to you
In behalf of our native birds. many
species Of which are in danger of ex.
termination. TO you is now given the
opportunity to render substantial help
toward their preservation. A measure
IL now before congress, the purpose
OF which ID to place all migratory
birds under the protection OF the fed
eral government.
such a law is greatly needed. II it
is not passed our birds will continue
to decrease-to the great and everlast-
Ing disadvantage and shame Of the
American people. The destruction OF
bird life is costing American farmers
millions Of dollars annually through
the constantly increasing devastations
of harmful insects upon which the
birds feed. But greater loss their
slaughter is bringing to all who love
Gods great out-of-doors.
I'VE therefore appeal to the school
children Of America to help In this VI
tally important matter. We ask you
to get your parents, teachers and
friends to write or telegraph to the
congressman Of your district and the
two senators Of your state. now in
Washington, urging immediate action
upon the pending bird protection bill
that they may understand how deep
is the interest in 1t and how great Is
the need for It,"

Wedding Ring Really Has a slonif'
canoe Apart From That to Which
q Sentiment 10 Attached.

For ages the wedding ring has been
a token Of binding authority. the
gold symbolizes the purity Of affec-
ton; the circle the endless love;
the price paid for it takes the place
OF the ancient purchase money. II
the ring Is lost 1t Is a warning that
the husbands love will soon pass
away; IL broken. that he will die soon.
Tradition has been responsible for
many stories concerning the wedding
ring; one of these Is that the nrst
ring was made by TNbal Cain Tor
Prometheus. This ring was OF Iron
and adamant, the iron signifying last
ingne ss and the adamant perfect con-
cord. The early Romans commonly
used 4 plain iron ring. while tho
poorer English, even in the nine
teenth century, used the ring for the
church keys.
It has not always been customary
to wear the ring on the third finger
Of the left hand, but there Is reason
for this modern convention. Besides
being less used and therefore less ex-
posed to danger. and being the weaker
finger and therefore symbolizins the
wife's dependence. the third finger Of
the left hand has been supposed from
the days Of the Egyptians to be con-
nected directly with the heart BY .
vein called the "vena amoris. Il
was indeed the finger OF life, and con-
sequently it Is most fitting that the
wedding ring should alorn it. Il

Just at That Time. F

A certain New York hotel manager
Is one OF these nervous men who con.
stantly warn their employees against
keeping them In ignorance Of any
happening around the place. He hired
. new bell boy recently. and gave
him the usual warning:
Remember" he warned. III any
thing happens around here I'm to be
the flrst person to know about it."
Soon after that he was showing
three naughty Daughters OF the Con-
federacy one Of the best rooms In the
place, when the new bell boy rushed
In with his hair on end.
Something's happened" he replied.
The three Daughters Of the Con
federacy turned coldly. and the man
ager. anxious to get rid OF the boy,
demanded to know the trouble.

the boy. has just had kittens! What
shall we do?"
