Stockers and feeders Sold higher first of th week, but lost the bloom early, thoug enjoying a good demand all week The run yesterday was 15,000 head here, and the market is steady on everything except heavy-fed steers, which are weak to 10 lower, The crop of fin ished steers is much larger this year than in any recent year, one reason for the small premium finished steers are bringing over lighter weight short fed steers. Another reason that the beef trade is not in a very healthy state in the East.

Light weight, outs can be Sold in large quantities, but th demand forbi steaksg is dissapointing. A string of 1450 pound steers sold here today for $6.10, fed since the first of September, and the same sales man sold a lot of 1,000 pound steers to the same packer at $5.60, fed sixty or seventy days.

Freedom. Indeed, the first point we have all to determine is not how free we are, but what kind of creatures we are. It is of small importance to any of us hether we get liberty; but of the greatest that we deserve it. Whether we can win it, fate must determine; but that we will be worthy of It we may ourselves determine; and the fate of all that we can sufter is to have it without deserving it. --Ruskin.

"Spotted fever" received some queer treatment in John Wesley's day, according to Wesley's Journal of Sep tember, 1746. A man named John Trembath had the fever and Wesley wrote: "It was the second relapse into the spotted fever, in the height of which they gave him sack, cold milk and apples, plums, as much as he could swallow. I can see no way to account for his recovery, but that he had not yet finished his work." Paints and Wall Paper AT FISH'S DRUG STORE Let us figure on that room of paper or bill of paints.
