Hog Downturn
Comes To AHalt
Tuesday es Sharpest
General Rise of Month;
Cattle Cain; Lambs Lose.

South st. Paul, Mimi, July Is, 1889:
Tuesdays advance of 10c and 15c
in hog prices with instances Csc high
er, provided the sharpest upturn of
the month. Improved demand from
all buying interests paved the way
for the advance, which carried the
top up to $500 after sinking to $6.75
at the start of the week. Light sows
sold freely at $500, and some good
to choice kinds late made $5O5 and
$50. Compared with the close of
last week, hog prices are strong to
15c higher.
Fed steers and yearlings secured
strong to Csc higher prices this week
when light supplies gave sellers the
whiphand, says the Federal-State
Market News Review Slaughter she
stock and bulls received good action
at fully steady prices and strong COM
petition coupled with small supplies
resulted in a strong to SOC higher
vealer trade. Stocker and feeder cat
tie brought strong to Csc higher prices
despite the relatively narrow spread
existing between fats and feeders.
Bulk of the medium and good fed
steers and yearlings cashed at $500
to 1925, while good and choice loads
scored $3.50 to $9.65, with 1914 pound
averages at the outside although trade
preference was for weights under
100 pounds. Medium to good fed
heifers brought $3.50 to $500, COM
mon grassers $500 to $500. Com
mon to near choice cows ranged from
$5.25 to $500, Gamers and cutters
from $500 to $5.25. Sausage bulls
bulked at $3.50 to $3.50, and good and
choice vealers at $3.50 to $1,000. Red
and roam stock steers bulked at $3.50
to $500, while good white-face calves
and yearlings reached $3.50. Medium
and good strongweight springer cows
sold to shippers at $500 to $500,
but local demand for dairy cows was
at low ebb.
Range lamb receipts continued to
expand locally and as a result killers
were able to force prices downward
on fat offerings. Compared with Fri
day last week, slaughter lambs fig
ured Csc to 40c lower, fat yearlings
lost Csc, and other killing classes held
steady. Most replacement stock re-
manned at steady levels with some
strength on native feeding lambs
Tuesdays top and bulk on sorted ma
tive spring slaughter lambs was $3.50,
while good to choice Washington fat
| springers were held at $500 and
above. Common to good shorn slaugh-
ter yearlings sold at $3.50 to $3.50,
with good to choice westerns eligible
to $6.75 or above. Most common to
choice clipped killing ewes COM
manded $500 to 1925. Bulk of ma
tive feeding lambs turned at $3.50
to $7.25 with westerns salable at $8.25.

ASKOV
Early Resident Visits Here.

Askov had an interesting visitor
Sunday when Miss Marie Van Bergen
of San Francisco, Calf, came here to
visit her home of 80 years ago. AT
that time she lived with her parents
on the R. P. Rasmussen farm. Her
sister is buried in the local cemetery
and was the second person to be laid
to rest there.
Miss Van Bergen remembered well
the school days in the old Assembly
hall together with the Mosbak, the
Henriksen and the Frahs children as
well as others. AS an interesting
coincidence, her teacher of those days,
j. P. Miller of Pine City, happened
to visit the village park while Miss
Van Bergen was there, and naturally
many pleasant memories were ex-
changed.

grayish- brown fox with the dress.
 At the unveiling of the Cana dian War Memorial at Ottawa, Her Majesty appeared in an off, white outfit consisting of loosely cut dress and a full length straight coat of white woolen with white fox at elbow and cuffs. On the previous day, at the laying of the cornerstone of the Supreme Court building, she wore a wool ensemble of hyacinth blue and gray, high crowned hat, also in hyacinth blue, a smoky blue fox scarf, and gray bag, shoes and gloves.
 The first time the Queen wore sports clothes in Canada was at Banff, Alberta. For the trip through Tunnel Mountain, she put on 8 long-sleeved sports dress of dusty gold flannel, with row of buttons from neckhne to hem. Later on, for a buggy ride over the country side, Her Majesty chose casually tailored suit of tweed in bluish gray, a high off-the-face hat, gray suede pumps.
 To wear with a mauve crepe ensemble of sheer wool texture, Queen Elizabeth chose a matching lowered hat and a little corsage of carnations. For State dinner.

she wore a Victorian picture frock of rose tulle, embroidered all over with silver and gold thread, and re embroidered with roses in pink, gold, blue and silver. With evening gowns, she usually wears a diamond tiara, bracelet and neck lace.
 COSTUMES ARE CORRECT FOR THEIR PURPOSE
 For daytime Her Majesty's skirts usually are nine or ten inches from the floor. She wears ankle-length afternoon clothes, and seems to pre- fer bouffant evening gowns to all other types. The majority of her evening gowns are white, with rose, pale blue and light pink vieing for second place.
 She seldom is seen without double strand of pearls and at least two other pieces of jewelry. Her hats are more pretty than smart, her dresses more queenly than downright chic. They suit her perfectly, and they are per- fectly suited to her position in life. Because they do suit her and be- cause they are eminently right for the background against which they are worn, Queen Elizabeth may be called rightly a woman with a fashion sense.

A SIMPLE. DRESS WITH SUMMING DETAILS
PATTERN 791

PATTERN 1S1
 Claire Tilden Slimline Fashions have always had "a way with" the stout figure. They conceal and soften and prettify over-generous lines-and they do it all with nice simplicity. Every 34-to 48-er will &C., claim Pattern 791 as the perfect af- ternoon style. So simple to sew, too, if you follow the complete Sew ing Guide. The full skirt has two front panels to give you tall, slim lines. Unusual softness at the bod ice is held in effectively by shirring or gathers on the shoulders, and tucks at the waistline release even more fitness. Follow your own tastes in its making; use revers or a plain square neck, puffed or open capelet sleeves a simple belt or a stitched on waist girdle. But don't fail to trim both the neck and sleeves with lace for its softening effect.
 Pattern 791 is cut in women,s sizes 34, 36, 38, 40, A, A, 46 and AS. Size 36 requires 4 yards 39 inch fabric and 2% yards lace edging.
 Send FIFTEEN CENTS (15c) in coins for this pattern. WRITE CLEARLY SIZE, NAE, ADDRESS STYLE NUMBER.

New York, June 7-The mere fact that she is there makes every function Queen Elizabeth attends important and more or less formal. And that she is well aware of this is evidenced by her choice of clothes. She is always-in an American sense" dressed up."
 Her Majesty likes jewels and flowers, dressy hats, pale, soft colors light furs longish coats rather than brief jackets, and accessories which exactly match her dress. She prefers sheer silks which lend themselves to soft draping rather than fabrics with slightly more body. Woolens for her coats usually are sheer and soft looking. She se- dom wears tweeds.
 Even on trains and sightseeing motor trips, Queen Elizabeth may modify but not abandon her rule about dressing up" She went aboard the

mama, then Cne MAAS. AsVu child himself is the most miserable creature on earth, but that doesn't hurt anyone else, and it only adds cruelty to suffering to tease them or to scold. However, most fears are nor- mal enough. You are afraid to die. perhaps, and afraird to go to the doctors office lest you hear
 bad news. Suppose someone were to make sport of you for that? It would do no good and you would only be thinking how unfair and heartless people can be. CERTAIN FEARS
 ARE INBORN
 Fear is largely matter of ex- perience, but certain fears are
 born in the child that he, never loses. The acquired fear can be dealth with through understanding and kindness. I was about to say that quick forcing only deepened
 the dread, but there are times when growing child suddenly thrust into an awesome situation, finds that he Is not hurt or any the
 worse for it. In that case he may lose the fear of the untried. But it is risky business with small
 children as shock may deepen the
 timidity to a real and fixed phobia
 that can never be dealth with hap oily.
 Most mothers know now, I think,
 that with little tots afraid of this
 and that, maybe water, darkness. i dogs or sudden loud noise, gradual introduction to the danger in home
 opathic doses is the best way to
 overcome it all.
 But if, after trying sympathetic,
 kindly coaxings the child still re-
 tains his pet fear. he will just have
 to go on with it in his system. The
 years will help, no doubt, and by and by he may be wondering what
 he was afraid of.

 For the official drive through Quebec the day she landed in Canada, Queen Elizabeth wore a cape ensemble of pearl gray triple sheer, with a wide band of smoky fox about the hemline.

The First of Series of Three
 Articles
 Notwithstanding tales of persons achieving reduction of obesity of long standing in a few days or weeks by this or that method, in actual practice the only reducing systems that give enduring results without impairing health or good looks are those which bring about a loss of not more than two or three pounds week. Rarely does any one gain as much as pound a week. In most instances the accumulation of excess fat occurs at the rate of ten or twenty pounds a year. It is a pretty good idea to take it easy when you are trying to get rid of surplus fat. Reduction of more than two or three pounds week is like ly to leave you with an assortment of wrinkles and sags which you can avoid if you follow rational regi- men.
 About the end of the second week of regimen of low calory dieting the patient is likely to experience a let-down due to lowered rate of me- tabolism, slower oxidation or com bustion. This general depression has defeated many well planned courses of reduction. The metabo- Ism may be improved in two ways, either by increasing the amount of protein-lean meat, white of egg, cottage cheese in the daily menus, protein being better stimulant of metabolism than either fat or car- bohydrate, or by bthe judicious use of minimu mdaily doses of thyroid. Of course the use of thyroid re- quires medical supervision. Wheth- CT the doctor adjusts the dosage of thyroid by basal metabolism test or by examining the patient at reasonably frequent intervals to gauge the effect, the essential pur- pose of thyroid is merely to bring the metabolism rate up to normal, and NOT to reduce weight. The use of thyroid is incidental and supplementary. and not at all es- sential in most cases.
 It is generally more effective to take four or five light meals a day than 1t is to skip meals or to take only two or three meals day, for fairly frequent light meals satisfy hunger or the sense of emptiness and ward off the distress or vaguge foreboding that occurs in many in- stances when the amount of sugar in the blood declines below the normal level. Instead of one or two large meals take two or four smaller meals, consuming the same total quantity Of food in tht day.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Kindly state whether vitamin A is of any help for a child ten years old who has what the eye doctor calls myopia or nearsight. (F.C.P)
 Answer-There is no convincing evidence that it would be. Numer- ous oculists have obtained what they regard as superior results in the treatment of various eye condi- tions when the paSent receives a liberal ration of vita ain A daily say two or three capsules a day, each capsule containing 5000 units. Some oculists believe dropping a drop or two of 1:1000 adrenalin solution in each eye daily the year around for two or three years ar rests progress of progressive myopia in childhood. This is harmless at any rate, provided the solution does not become contaminated and spoil -too old solution may irritate the eye.
 Diathermy of TonsiIs
 Had diathermy of tonsils by Dr. IT,. throat fine for four years. Then had sore throat. Family doc- tor says should have tonsils cut out says diathermy will never be suc- cessful. (H. O. K)
 Answer = If they were my ton- sils I'd return to the diathermy man for whatever further treat ment he thinks necessary. I'd give any doctor wide berth if he seem- ed too cocksure that diathermy can never be successful, for that is as sensible as 1t would be to say that one of these crazy ten ton airships can never rise into the air.
