The nations of the world "seem

Better Than Sanger

tude OF skepticism about Mar

will learn an excellent moral les
son from her new book: RE

that malice is an excellent
purge for whimsicality and sen.
timent. and is a fine basis for a
book. Miss Kennedy isn't nearly
as malicious as erset
Vaughan, but she knows a
thing or two about successful
authors. and the story she tells
mere, OF one who felt that he
had to pose his way through
life, is witty and a little moving.
I would not be either depressed
or interested in the vague sug-
gestion that the principal char
acter is a well-known dramatist
whose name sounds something
like Noel Coward. It's not i'm.

A Great Radical

So it was that the paper
which the righteous would not
be seen reading (although they
probably read it, unseen) di-
rected a vicious attack upon
John Humphrey Noyes, founder
of the Oneida Community and
creator of a system of ascend.
ing and pluralistic marriage.
"Men and women" said Noyes,
"find that susceptibility to love
is not burned out by one honey
moon or satisfied by one lover.
Here every man becomes the
husband and brother of every
woman, and every woman be-
comes the wife and sister of
every man. Exclusive idolatro
attachment is unhealthy and
pernicious." And so on. It
happens that economically and
socially the Oneida Community
was one of the most intelligent
efforts made in an era when
hundreds of colonies were
founded to create a better life.
But the sexual theories and
practices offended the world.
and nothing now remains of
the religion of Perfectionism,
except the factories established
under Noyes' beneficent rule.
Are You Sincere?"
I doubt the sincerity of the
Police Gazette in it's attack. The
subject was as good in it's day
as weird love cults" and nudist
colonies are now. The Police
Gazette had no higher moral
standard; but it knew that by
pretending to be shocked by
open defiance of the conven-
tions it could get away with
murder in other fields. The free.
dom 1t gained resulted in a dis.
torted record of American life
which now, when we do not
check the accuracy of every &C.
c1dent and scandal, is vastly en-
tertaining.

the second series equal in merit
to the first; and Ripley has a
pleasant way of making you
feel that he is as surprised as
you are by his discoveries. he
r. er patronizes you OR leads
you to think that he is
peculiarly gifted, learned, or
even adventurous. All these
things account for his success.
But as one who used to read
him in the long-defunct New

The exact form of the ques-
ton I do not know; it may be
Lardner'S What of It?" or the

Nash's idea that the ladies of

troubled by the sinus of the

is q social discovery of the

Superior Morals

the Police Gazette took high
moral stand. The eager read
ers in barber shops might think
that all these sexual vagaries
were reported for their own
sake; but the official attitude
was one of shock. The Police
Gazette disapproved. And like

the most vicious attack on the

CATTLE SLOW;
HOGS STRONGER
Cattle Market Generally Sow at
Steady to Weak Prices; Hog Market
Rules Strong to Csc Higher; Sheep
Run Largest of Season.

tBy U. S. Bureau Of Agricultural Eco.
nomics and Minnesota Department OF
Agricultural
South st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. z, 1881:
A slow weak market ruled at the
opening in the cattle division this
week under the combination of rela-
lively plain quality and a weak to
lower trend in dressed trade. Fed
offerings centered at the $3.50 to
$3.50 terms, some few lots selling on
up to $500, grass fats clearing main
ly at $500 to $500, Montana rangers
to $3.50 to $3.50 Grass cows CEN
tered at $500 to $3.75, heifers $3.50
to $3.50, cutters $1.75 to $3.50, bulls
$500 to 1925 for weighty kinds, while
vealers continued at $500 to $3.50.
A strong to in spots 25c higher hog
market ruled at the opening today,
the upturn applying to packing sows
and light lights mainly. Better $50
to 24O pound weights cleared at $500
to $6.1O, light lights mainly $5.75,
$40 to 1876 pound averages from $500
to $500, packing sows mostly $3.75
to $500. Pigs centered at 1918, a few
choice light kinds to $500.
Despite the fact that sheep receipts
were the largest of the year, the mar
ket was established quite early and
ruled fairly active at fully steady
prices. Bulk of the better native and
Dakota lambs cashed at $500 to $40.
closely sorted KINDS $7.25 to shippers.
Medium grade lambs cleared largely
at $5.25, throwouts mostly $3.50, ewes
continuing unchanged at $3.50 down.
Feeders and Suckers.
Feeder and stocker trade was very
uneven, better grades showing little
change, palmer kinds ruling weak to
Csc lower. Fleshy we'll bred feeders
scored to $6.75, light stockers $6.25 to
$3.50, bulk all weights $500 to $5.25.
