and covered the slight cough which she could not
repress Her touch upon the locks Of the heavy
front door was as deft and as light as a feather.
As the big door swung slowly June stined a shrek
with the sharp intake Of her breath. The portieres
had swayed and an elbow had como through!
Quick as fash June slipped out through the mar
rowest crack which would accommodate her body.
Closing the door behind her with q touch soft as
the breath Of summer, June hurried lightly down
the steps, crouching close to the stone wall.

Christian stalked up the stairs and entered the room
where June stood anxiously awaiting him.
Her silvery little laugh came as she saw him. and
she ran lightly to the window and threw it open.
There was tiny balcony outside which was en-
tirely isolated and quite high above the street.
Now, just stand out there" she directed and he
stepped obediently out.
Gently she lowered the window.
"Ill tell you what to do next" she laughed and,

SOUTH DAKOTA GOOD TO ITS
LIVESTOCK BREEDERS

South Dakota is the only state in
the union which has built a livestock
pavilion for her livestock breeders, in
which they may hold their annual
combination breeders sale" says Prof.
w. Wilson, secretary of the livestock
association. This pavilian was erect
ed at Mitchell by appropriation by the
1905 state legislature, and is a building
admirably well suited to it's purpose,
being steam heated, electric lighted,
and modern throughout. This enables
the livestock breeders to hold their
annual sale during the winter. The
great value Of the sale is that it forms
a clearing house for pure bred stock
raised in the state, and does much to
foster the breeding of better farm ami
mails.
One hundred seventy head of pure
bred stock will be sold at the next
annual sale in the official Mitchell
pavilion on January q and 2S. Four
teen breeds will be represented by
s~eventy-two contributors from all
parts of South Dakota. Four or more
auctioneers of interstate prominence
will cry the sale. Prof. Wilson has
the annual catalogs now on hand
ready for distribution, and they will
be mailed upon application to al
farmers who desire to obtain pure
bred stuff to improve their herds.
