LIVESTOCK MARKET
DURING PAST WEEK

South st. Paul. May 14.-All divi-
sions of the livestock market last
week showed something of the
strength and speed displayed at the
high time in April. Cattle. hogs and
sheep sold at the highest levels of the
month, with demand showing more OF
an edge than any time lately.
last week was a surprise, and by the
close Of the week all grades of killing
stun were selling at the highest levels
since the April high point. The i'm
provement extended to all classes.
though fat steers showed the best
form. Toward the close of the week
quite a lot Of this stuff showed UP and
met good demand. The s11@12 level
for large lots appeared more frequent
ly in the trade than 1t had in three
weeks. and a new high record of
$12.40 on straight loads was set by a
bunch Of Minnesota fed stuff. The
bulk of the fat beeves during the
week sold at 110.50@12. At $4,000
1880 packers bought quite a showing
OF half finished steers
Good quality cows and heifers were
not plentiful, and the trade on this
CLASS was spotted. Some fancy ia,
ordinary prices for such stock on this
market. Bulk Of the best. however,
sold within the 5000 spread, a few
old head bringing $1O.25 @10.6o. Most
Of the she stock ran to the common
and medium grade, n this did not
have as fast action as the better
stock. The $7.50@s spread caught
most OF the COWS and heifers Of the
fair to good class.
Cutters and tanners reacted after
the previous weeks decline and show
ed better action and prices toward the
close Of the week. A decline at the
start of the period was cancelled and
q net gain registered for the week. A
spread Of se.6o@7.25 was taking
most of the cutters and Gamers at the
close Of the week.
Bull trade was strong and active all
week, with prices probably as high as
they ever have been on this market.
Several outside buyers were in the
market and the competition for
butcher bulls assumed the appearance
Of a ace at times.

The hide market is quie, and

tanners are not Interested to the point
OF making bids. The large upper
leather tanners are out OF the market
claiming the leather business is un-
satisfactory. Reported from Wash
.oeron that It seems absolutely ce--
taiI that q tax Of 10 per cent win be
levied on imports Of hides and skins,
also that an internal tax may be lev
led on sales OF hides and skins in
the United States. These contem-
pla,ed measures are the principal
topic ot discussion in trade marts a,
this time and acts as a hindrance to
hide sales a, present The situation
is bound 10 be more X less unsettled
Unit! the atmosphere in hide circles is
clearer. We make no changes in

Where Are the Serious Minded Girls

She is the one who comes to say:
II slept and dreamt that life was
beauty; / woke and found that life
was duty"
There are women who are childish
all their lives. who continually pass
the serious business OF life to some
body else. and whose troubles are
thrown off like water from a ducks
back. Such women usually wake up
TO find that the century has moved on
apace: that IL expects woman to hold
her own In the worlds work.
No. my dear man. girls are not less
serious minded than they were in the
olden days. IL It could be measured
II would most likely be found that
they are even more sen sible" than
their ancestors, since the opportuni-
ties for their coming in touch with the
events OF the day are ever present.
Still. II you insist on knowing girls
of your own serious bent, seek and
you shall find.
There are hundreds OF them in the
offices, In the stores and in tho fac
tories, in the settlements and In the
schools. But take care that you do
not let youth slip away by insisting
on the worldly things before the time
that nature planned. She Is the safe
monitor.

1t was his tender regard for the mis-
