Kansas City Market Letter
tBy ] A. Rickart, Correspondent,

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug.
"a, IoI4.-Cattle receipts last
week were $4,000, previous week
$4,000, same week last year IS, 900.
Prime cattle sold firm all week,
and new high record for the year
was made, at $1,000, paid for
cattle both Tuesday and Wednes-
day. Everything everything ex-
the upper crust sold IS to 80
lower, including stockers and feed
ers. The supply to-day is $4,000
head here, and prices are steady
on the best, with top steer sales
at $Io.4s, SIo.4o and $Io.25, mid
die grades sold around 10 lower.
Stockers and feeders are strong
today, some sales hig her, the trade
in that department having derived
benefit from recent rains, and wet
prospects. Choice Greenwood
County steers, 1860 lbs. average,
brought So.75, today, and medium
steers, 1880 lbs. sold at SO. so,
plain steers to. killers, including
cattle brought up this spring,
S7.25 to $500. 1t costs 81 to fill
an order for a load OF choice heavy
grass COWS last week. Butcher
grades find a good outlet, and
Gamer stuff sells strong, as it is
wanted to fill war contracts for
beef. Quarantine cattle receipts
today were 81 cars, sales around
10 lower. Middle class Oklahoma
cattle made the bulk of the supply,
selling at S5.S5 to Sc. so, with some
fair to good steers around 81,
good weight wintered steers worth
$3.50 cows s.. so to 5000. Fleshy
grass steers from Kansas and
Missouri find an outlet to Illinois
feeder buyers up to 1915. Straight
feeders brought S8.25 today, and
bulk of the stockers sell at $6.75
to S7.65, common stock stuff to be
had as low as S.. so. Country de-
mand is expected to improve in
the near future, which will be a
big help to the whole cattle list.

price changes are frequent. Re-
ceipts are 5000 today, market S to
10 higher, all hands buying freely,
top So. 80, bulk So.o5 to so.25.
Packers droves are costing fully
as much here as in Chicago, though
a few choice light hogs make a
top there slightly above this mar
ket. Immune hogs sell IS to 40
cents above the regular market,
and good many can be used.
Some sickness is showing up,
ascribed to careless feeding of new
corn. Buyers had the lines sharp

day, and none were allowed to

DEATH-DEALING KISSES

The most famous example of kisses
that have caused death is furnished bv
the story of the sprightly young Duchess
or Gordon, who raised so many recruits
for the famous Gordon Highlanders In
the early days of the regiment recruiting .
was very slow. but the Duchess attired
herself in the regimental colors, and made
tour of the various markets and fairs.
Offering TO each recruit a guinea and a
kiss.
Most OF the recipients paid for the kiss
with their lives. No sooner was the regi-
ment raised than 1t was sent TO fight the
French, and in the first engagement in
which the Duchess's recruits participated
there was loss OF 300 killed and wound
ed. All the right thanking company was
hit save one, and he, curlously enough
did not happen to be a recipient of the
young Duchess's kiss. He was n cannia
Aberdeensh!re man. and for an extra
guinea he sold HIS right to another nor
son to kiss from the Duchess's rubv
lips. U''

MY LADY's CoIFFURE

The trade in human hair is a big in
dustry. Italians easily take the lead
in this traffic, the main source of their
supply being obtained from the peasant
women of Italy, Dalmatia and Switzer-
land. Several times year these human
hair merchants send their agents around
to collect supplies, which are usually
immense, for hair-growing is cultivated
on very large scale by these women.
and yields a good remuneration TO the
producer. Two crops OF hair year, and
looking none the worse for the loss, is
not extraordinary among these peasant
women, Half the hair at the back of tho
head is shorn off, the remaining half being
drawn over the exposed part and dressed
in such a manner as only to be de-
tected on very close scrutiny and by
those experienced in the trade.

FRENCH ART GIVES
RARE CHARM TO
GIRLS DANCE FROCK
Free From Sophistication of
Dinner or Ball Dress, but
Marked by Premeditated
Simplicity.

| For the girls who arc neither "out" nor
dances as their elders and betters the
dance frock should be chosen with par
ticular care
1t should not have the sophisticated air
OF the dinner dress, or the ball dress, but
its simplicity should be of the premedi-
tated kind, and not the accidental
1t is because the French dressmaker
has felt the same 10y of creation" that
inspires the artist or the sculptor that
Paris has become Mecca for lovers of
beautiful clothes.
A frock must be picture to realize the
French conception, happily harmonious in
scheme of color and symmetrical in out
line.
They take an almost childish delight
In dressing each age not merely appro-
priately, but in idealizing it, and deck
ing it out in the trappings that will pro-
claim its exact status so that all who
run may read.
The Partisan conception of the style
suitable to the "Jeune illc,' is to array
her in way that will typify all that
there is of freshness and youth, and to
enhance the charm that is borne by those
that are still "unspotted of the world"
The dress shown in the Illustration is
utSISlltu lTOU llS ldllSldIl pOIIil Va view
In treatment and in the color combina-
ton 1t is essentially FrenCh-unmistak-
ably a young girls frock with rosebuds
to symbolic the age.
1t is made of the softest taffeta a
taffeta that has so much in the way of
sheen and shadow that it is easy to
mistake it for a changeable silk.
The color is blue. the family turquoise
blue that has charmingly artless look
when it is combined with pink.
To get just the right shades of the
two colors, the delicate nuance, is an
achievement dear to the French soul.
The bodice is very girlish in design,
but the fact that 1t is sleeveless pro-
The wide skirt announces this fact
also following as it does a tendency that
seems to swing the full reactionary dis
tance of the pendulum of style
The bouffant appearance that is now
so desirable Is greatly increased by the
ruffle at the edge of the tunc and at
the foot of the skirt.
The spot of pink necessary to the effect
of the bodice is established by the cus-
ter of roscbuds that is fastened just
above the girdle at the left side.
The little punches of roses that are
placed at intervals above both ruffes re-
establish the harmony made by the two
colors.
Slippers and stockings that exactly
much the shade of the dress are an
important detail of the costume.
They are more youthful and for that
reason more appropriate to the idea eX-
pressed by the dress than slippers of
bronze or black would be.
1t is by the accessories and the details
that dress succeeds or fails.

THE DETAIL VS.. THE LARCE-PLAN
WOMAN
By MRS. CHRISTINE FREDERICK,
Author of THE New Housekeeping
WOMAN

week or month. Their marketing is done
on the daily or at most weekly plan. Their
accounts are kept hazardly, with no idea
OF a future end or a plan ten years off.
When they buy equipment they do not
consider it permanent investment, but
present expenditure. They are tied up
in mass of detail and believe that home
making does not offer them the oppor-
tunity to use the creative, executive and
more broadening qualities which they
think they possess.
L deplore this because the detail man
or detail woman is never as great as
the large plan individual. 1t Is seeing
only in the present and being smothered
In mass OF daily detail that prevents
stability and development for the high
est kind of family lite. The mother who
spends unnecessary sums and time on
Susie's hair ribbons is not thinking as a
rule of practical plans for Susie's college
education. The woman who buys what
she wants and whose expenses are not run
on budget plan Is the woman who Is
eNtraVagant and who is partly responsible
for the high cost of living. The woman
who idolizes fancy guest room and vet
has no place in her home for the develop
ment of her boys taste for manual train
ing or electricity is not the large plan
woman.
The successful business man Is al
ways the large plan individual first. He
must and does know details But II is his
visions and ideals which create and build
that business to success. The successful
home maker must also be the large plan
woman. 1t must be her ideals and her
perception of a future education. a fu-
ture permanent home, a future clean city
which will make home making the highest
success.

learn that business men are generally
divided into two classes. one the detail
man. the other the large plan man or
executive. Sometimes a man combines
the qualities cs both groups, but generally
he belongs distinctly to one or the other
type.
Now the detail man is the one who
carries out orders. He is responsible for
the thousand and one details which make
up the day Of that particular business.
lie does not plan for next week or next
month or next year He does what he is
instructed for a very small period in ad-
vance without question, without initia-
tive, and without using any creative abil-
ity.
The large plan" on the other hand is
the one in whose brain originates the
general policy of the business, the plans
and ideals toward which the business
snail work and the larger results not only
iOr next week, but for years ahead He
appreciates the value of detail and knows
all details thoroughly, but the bigger idea
in his mind is his business in all its de-
partments and as a whole. Without his
creative sense and his imagination there
would be no business, and on him the
burden of responsibility falls.
Now l have often compared home-mak-
ing to business. If this Is true, what type
of woman shall direct the business OF
home-making? Shall 1t be the detail or
the large plan woman? I think you will
agree with me when I say that the bulk
of women home makers fall now into
the detail class They perform schedules.
they do a great deal of heavy work, they
spend unlimited time doing infinitesimal
small tasks in housework, but do they
ever approach the breath and viewpoint
of the large plan executive in business?
l find very few women and mothers
who see further ahead than the present
