Do you know what kind of # machine I'm going to buy when | make my ple?' said the Wants-to- beCynic. ct is old jest that mon always say If I marry and women, When marry" But to offset this men almost always say When I make my pile.'')
 The Obliging Listener Ca part taken by Molly on this occasion) had all ready said No, what kind ?' while this war running through my mind "A Ford,'' said the Cynic.
 He's Going to Surprise Some People.
 And then after he had enjoyed his moment to the full, he went on, And then I'm going to take out the en- zine and put in the fastest high power engine that money can bury and that you can put under that hood. And then won't I have the fun? One of these big brutes of cars will come laundering up beside me and order me to get off the road and take their mud. And I'll just put on the power and leave them behind. I'll give some people the surprise of their 1ives.''
 I rather like the Cynic's revenge, don't you? /
 And I like the possibilities it sug- gests in a. wider application.
 To have money with all it's power and instead of Haunting it, to hide it under a modest exterior, a, quiet way of living, isn't there a fascina- ton about that?

SIDE TALKS
The Cynic's Revenge
BY nux oA1GRusoH

I love quiet wealth. I like the suggestion of hidden power, of re- straint, of superiority which it gives.
 It means that the man who has it owns his money instead of being owned by it. It means that he has other standards than those of money, She Hated to Say Haven't You Any
 thing Less Expensive?''
 One when I was a girl two or three of us were talking about how we hated to go into 2, shop and after being shown something, say, 'iavent you anything less expensive?"
 "I'd like to be able to say Please show me something more expen~ sive," said one of the girls.
 1T wouldn't say that" said another 'T'd just look at the different gowns and then I'd say. Send me that OF this without even asking the price"
 4 More Dtgnified Attitude.
 Surely that is the more dignifed attitude toward money.
 When I meet people who live rather quietly who never talk about their money, who dress well and be- comingIy. but not with any distinct effort to look expensive, and am told afterwards a that they are million aires. I feel far more impressed than when I meet people who are obvi- ousiy wealthy. Aren't you?

SIOUX CITY LIVE STOCK MARKET

better feeling in the cattle trade to-
day. Light receipts and improve

the factors. Killing grades were rat

there was a good active market for
useable grades of stockers and feed
ers. Run at hand was estimated at
1900 as against 1,453 a week ago
and 965 the corresponding day a year
ago.
Hog market drew a light run, but
business was slow in rounding into
shape. Kinds suitable for shippers
cleared at steady figures, while pack
ing and mixed grades were slow to
move and 25@35c lower. Top for
the day reached $4,000, while bulk
of mixed and packer grades sold at
a spread of 1910 @19.40.
A moderate run of sheep arrived
and the market was quoted as un-
changed with yesterday.
