Ra,D Fur Market Report
BY BECKMAN X

Surprising strength is the feature of the
market on raw furs of all descriptions.
Due to extremely high muskrat prices some
very large users are withdrawing support,
however, no decided drop In price is pre-
dicted. Winter furs and prime skins are
commanding peak prices although the
springy condition of such furs as Coyotes,
Badgers, and Mink is influencing prices to
a downward tendency. Trapping may still
be carried on very probably, however,
especially on Muskrats and Beaver. Skunk
too, has gained considerable strength,

THE GHOST ABOVE THE TREES"

This strange picture by Frank Setback Austrian artist
shows pale moonlight night the ground and the
ghost Of living floating strangely in the air

Setback, engineer employed by the Vienna city gov

You will admit that this particular picture presents rather
our ordinary ghost idea
No white garment here slowly stepping dead
back to haunt This ghost looks like corpse
from the grave and tossed into the air.
Yet in spite Of free may be from superstition,
belief In such there is something in nearly all Of
that responds to this picture and feels curious interest in it.
What Is superstition what has caused belief in ghosts
devils witches demons vampires and all the other hdeous
creations Of morbid imaginations?
Scientists tell you that belief in ghosts in hereafter and
Immortality, came from dreams originally
Our savage ancestors DREAMED and in their dreams

Others The dead not REALLY dead They live in

Gradually there fear Of the dead fear of what might
happen AFTER death, and upon that FEAR religion was
started in the beginning and those that managed the religions
made their living by preyng upon the fears Of the others
That is the rather ingenious scientific explanation but
does not satisfy you.
Is there something In u.s. APART from what have
been told apart from Dreams apart from religious
teaching ITSELF that makes feel that there is something
strange in death, something that comes after it?
and modern religion teach that the dead
do NOT back but remain peacefully where they put

SUMS ENERGY

TINE latest, and perhaps the
Il best, of the new theories of
astronomers concering the life of
the sun-on which all kinds of

that there is in the central part
of the sun las Of other stars a
quantity of "super-radiocative
matter" which Is continually
transformed into energy, and it
is this energy that keeps the sun
going.
This peculiar super" matter Is
supposed to consist of atoms OF a
higher atomic weight than ura-
