September s:
Twelve beautiful carnations midst
wealth Of green,
Seemed to my tired eyes the pret-
tiest ever seen.
September Il:
Twelve beautiful carnations, bring
ing cheer til late
Four grew sick Of ether and then
there were but eight.
September 13:
Eight beautiful carnations still smil-
ing as OF yore-
Four grew weary OF hospital sights
and then there were but four.
September Is:
Four fading carnations, still said
that it was fun,
But three grew tired just overnight
and then there was but one.
September 16:
one dear. true carnation. faithful to
the end,
Reminds me of my Priscillas whose
prayers for me ascend.
Later:
Poor tired fading carnation. now It
is sleeping, too,
But it has shown us plainly what
Gods sweet flowers can do.
And now my beautiful carnations are
Just a memory dear.
But may it keep me faithful to Him
who's been so near.

i models give the comfort and
protection of a closed car-with all
the advantages of an open car, plus
the good looks, riding comfort, in
terror finish and fittings that no open
car could ever givel
Yet the price is no higher than thar
of an open car.
The appeal of its simplicity, con-
venience and durability is instant and
decisive-with a touch of the hand
you draw down the four roller en-
closures and in thirty seconds your
airy open car is a snug, comfortable

enclosing sides can be rolled up into
the roof and you have an open car

The Duplex body is especially built
for the roller side enclosures, the
roof is framed and shaped in steel
permanently beautiful and steel
strong to support the rollers, and
the upper part of the Duplex is in
tegral with the lower part. 1t is a
unit body which harmonizes per-
fectly in beauty and function.

PORKERS RESUME
SENSATIONAL RISE
Top of 1925 Reached on
40-Cent Advance,

With hog receipts too small to
satisfy the demand at the local live
stock market, prices hit new high
levels for the year with an advance
of % to 40 cents Tuesday. The
market was a two-priced affair at So
09.15. The receipts were estimated
at $1,000 Trading opened and closed
strong with everything sold. Heavy
weights, and medium mixed hogs
were moving at $9Q9.15. The bulk
of sales was made at the same
figures. Pigs were higher at $40
SIS. Sows were higher at $8@S.25
for smooth packers and $7.S5QS for
roughs. Porkers in the light light
class sold at SS.75Q9.15. A top of
1926 was paid for several loads of
good cornfed hogs weighing around
300 pounds. There were very few
really good hogs offered. The ma
jority bore evidence of being grass
fed. Traders characterized the
market as a wild fray" making too
rapid advances to last long. In
dications seemed to point to a slight
steadying down within the next few
days and then, should receipts con-
tinue light, another rise; or II a
marked increase in receipts, a sud
den slump.
Good receipts was the steadying
factor in cattle trading. Several
loads Of good dry-fed steers brought
as high as $10.35. AS usual light
stuff was moving slowly. The bulk
of good COWS were moving at $3.50,
although there were several that
brought 81. Most of the good hcif-
ers were selling at So with a few
extra choice head reported sold at
$3.50. Trading was active. Receipts
were estimated at 1,400.
Speculative pressure brought a
half dollar drop in calf prices. The
market was classed as so cents
lower although there were several
choice veals sold at $1,000 The bulk
of good calves were moving at $3.50.
The ordinary top was SO. Re-
ceipts We're estimated at 500.
With demand unable to keep pace
with receipts of 500 sheep and
lambs, so cents was cut from top
lamb quotations. $12.5o was the
best paid for lambs. Sheep held
steady at a top Of Sc, They sold
down to $3.50.
