The following i3 an account of the bidding ceremony, an old custom which is said to be celebrated even to this day In rural parts of Wales: The bidder goes from house to house with a long pole and ribbons flying at the end of it. and standing in the middle floor in each house he repeats a long lesson witl great formality. He mentions the daj of the wedding, the place, the preparations made, etc. The following is a specimen : "The intention of the bidder is this: With kindness and amity, witl decency and liberality for and he invites you to come with your goo.' will on the plate.

Nov the little woman was far more famili with the classics than with roasts ap stews, and she was not a little dism;i; ed when Mary Innocently put the que tlon: "An how will ye have the beef ccjV ed, mum?" For the merest instant she hesitated Not for a fortune would she have tin old servant suspect her absolute ie norance of cookery. But her years ii the schoolroom had not been in vair.

THE MULE INDUSTRY. THE FARRAR MEMORIAL.

Kan iiaa City tbe Greatest Male Market In the "World. Growing mules in Kansas and Jlissouri is now one of their leading Industries, and Kansas City is the greatest mule market in the world. Raising mules has many advantages over the horse industry. The market for mules Is as staple as that for hogs or cattle. They are ready for market at three years old or before. They do not have to be broken, but are just driven to the station and shipped like cattle. They are usually sound and seldom get hurt. They seem to know enough to steer clear of barbed wires, and if they do get against it they stop, never get excited and tear themselves to pieces. Just now they are in great demand at good prices; $100 to is about the price paid. It costs less to raise mules than colts, and they are more quiet and seldom give trouble by breaking out of inclosures. Weaniii mules readily sell at S50 to S75, and $20 is considered ample pay for cost of keeping until reaay ror market. They can never be induced to eat as much grain as a horse and seldom eat enough to hurt themselves. As soon as they are two years old they are kept on the best pasture and fed about all the grain they will eat, and as soon as fat and slick they are ready for the market, and buyers are always ready and waiting for them. For these reasons it will readily be een that mules give, a far more certain and greater profit than horses, and I often wonder that eastern farmers do not give them more attention. E. P. Snyder in Ohio Farmer. A Cribbing: Horse. Here is a remedy that never fails, according to a Country Gentleman correspondent: Take some strips of fur, such as are made into robes, or almost any kind, tack on the edge of the manger, and the horse will never crib while in the stall. THE SHEPHERD A flock of sheep Is the best helper in keeping up the conditions of the land without any extra expense. Advantage of Sberp. With wheat growing a prominent factor, mutton production will always be found a profitable supplement. These two industries go admirably together. Among live stock sheep are pre-eminently soil renovators, and with one possible exception, that of butter, no product of the farm takes less from the land in proportion to its market value than wool and mutton. The excreta from sheep are more perfectly utilized as fertilizers than those of any other farm animal. This is due to their comparatively even distribution over fields that are grazed by these an imals. J. Withycombe, Oregon. Tails Unnecessary. Tails are unnecessary appendages to modern sheep, says Wing, and are apt to become fouled. A docked lamb has a square look and seems fatter than one with a tail. Water Always Wanted.. While the theory that sheep require but little or no water has been exploded, there are still some who through negligence or ignorance still hold to it. There is in reality nothing that sheep require for general health and development more than water. Almost all the food provided them is dry in its nature, and unless water is furnished in suitable quantity the food is neither digested nor assimilated. Baying and Selling;. After harvest is a gaod time to buy sheep. . By getting them early they may be managed so that they can be put in fine order for winter. If there is an odd one in the flock make it Into mutton. An even flock Is always attractive. Keep the best and the market will come to you. Have you a good head for your flock? If not, take a trip off to some good sheep grower and buy a thrifty, hearty young ram. You will surely never have cause to regret doing this. If you are going to buy sheep, buy good ones. About as poor stock as a man can have is a lot of old, poor, run down sheep. Don't let a buyer cull the flock. Grade them yourself, and sell them in a bunch. Farm Journal. ' Mutton Chops. A great call for rape seed. Sheep times were never better. Keep sheep and keep them well. It is not yet too late to sow rape. Weeds and sheep don't get along together. Water and shade are, very Important at this season. Don't allow your sheepi'to drink from stagnant pools. To sell or not to sell is the question with the woolgrower. You can afford to attend to both form and fleece these days. Don't forget that water is half the heeps living in summer. The Dorset is worthy of more advertising than he's getting. Salt is as necessary to the sheep in summer as in winter and perhaps even more so. It's a great mistake to suppose that sheep do their own shepherding in summer. Don't expect your lambs to keep In bloom when confined to dried up shadeless pastures. It's a long time since so many high class sheep were Imported from England as this year. None shone brighter than . the si shepherd In patriarchal days, and today Is by no mens dingy. American Sh Breeder. NOTICE TO CONTRACTOS.

Tablet to the Memory of tbe Dean of Canterbury. The memorial to the late Frederick W. Farrar which was recently placed in the nave of Canterbury cathedral, England, will be an object of interest to many American taurists, as the great English preacher and writer had many admirers in this country. He was dean of Canterbury when he died, but was best known in the United States as Canon Farrar," as he was canon of Westminster for many years before

He was an exponent of liberal theology and was widely known for his writings and addresses In opposition to the doctrine of evei lasting punishment. Ills "Life of Christ" is considered one of the greatest works of the kind ever published. His literary labors were voluminous and embraced many subjects. WILLIAM HURRY'S GRAVE.

PATRIOT'S TOMBSTONE. humble though patriotic citizen, but it is at least obvious that the country li as not been In a "hurry" to honor his memory, for the spot where his body was laid to rest was for many years forgotten. Last spring the sexton of the Pine Street lresbyterian church, Philadelphia, found the tomhstone originally erected at the head of his grave. It had become half buried in moss and undergrowth. The local chapter of the Daughters of the Amer ican Revolution became interested in the discovery, and as a result a suitable monument is at last to be erecte4 over the resting place of the man who rang out the glad ne-ws of the birth of a jaew nation.

Sometimes the tiny globules of the mercury appear in the interstices of the rock, but usually it is found ir. the form of cinnabar, a chemical com pound containing 13.8 per cent of sulfhur and 8C.2 per cent mercury. When pure and reduced to a powder It is a bright red color. The principal uses of quicksilver are for removing free gold and silver in placer and quartz mining, for manufacturing vermillion paints and dyes. for backing mirrors, for making ther mometers and many other scientific in struments. What Water Did. A certain liquor dealer, a hard head ed old Scot, grew rich in the trade. After he had grown rich the old man built himself a fine house, a limestone mansion on the hill, with a park around it, with conservatories, stables and outbuildings in a word, a palace. One day the old Scot rode In the omnl bus past his fine house. A temperance man pointed up at the grand edifice and said, with a sneer, "It was the whisky built that, wasn't it?"

When you place AT THE THEATERS Vaudeville at the Phillips. After a week devoted to repertoire, vaudeville was resumed at the New Phillips Monday afternoon and night, pleased audiences of good size being present on both occasions. The bill this week is notable for the large amount of pleasing music that it affords, and this is a fact that will be especially pleasing to many patrons of vaudeville who are attracted to the entertainment largely through a de sire to hear the tuneful airs that are given by the various teams. From a standpoint of acting, the special feature of the bill is the work of Ether Barr and Company, who present the comedy drama, "The Third Generation." This is the story of a crab bed old man whose son has married against his wishes and thus soured him on all humanity. The son dies in the war and the little grandson is sent to the grandfather to make peace in the family. This he succeeds in doing and it is a very affective and touching, bringing tears to many eyes. The letter from dying husband to wife, and later sent to the grandfather, is a pathetic composi tion that reaches the heart In addition to this the program calls for John Murtha, instrumental, singing and story-telling comedian; Waller and Magill, in a juvenile act entitled A Pistol Card;" Harbach and Har ris, in a novelty singing sketch; Miss Powell, singing and talking comedienne; Miss Ruby Cohn, presides at the piano and also sings the illustrated songs, which this week are "Dreaming Love of You" and "Starlight;" and the Philoscope, showing "Wet Paint," "Motor Car for Sale" and "Rival Brothers." Friday night will be partly given over to amateurs. On Saturday there will be a special matinee for children, at five cents, and at all other matinees the admis sion will be ten cents except to children under five years. Souvenirs are given at the Wednesday matinees. Pete Baker Gennett. A clean comedy production of the brightest description, rich in humor, embellished with several song hits and a well developed plot, at times strongly dramatic in dialogue and situation, called "A Race for a Widow," comes to the Gennett Wednesday flight. The company is said to be excellent, which adds to the popularity of the production. Pete Baker, the "fam ous comedian of Chris and Lena fame, is a star and he will no doubt get the most cordial sort of a greeting. Wilton Lackaye Gennett. Both Wilton Lackaye, and his manager, Wm. A. Brady, are sticklers for accuracy in both costumes and scenic environments. When it was decided that the actor should appear in his own version of Victor Hugo's celebrated novel, "Les Miserables," an American artist in Paris was commissioned to secure sketches for both scenery and costumes. The museums were ransacked and by good for tune, pictures of the very houses of Paris in lS15 and 1820, in which the scenes were laid, were found in some old books. These sketches were forwarder to Mr. Brady in New York, and corresponding scenery was imme diately built. "The Law and the Man" will come to the Gennett on Friday night of this week and the indications are that it will be the event of the season at that house. The seat sale is on tomorrow. Bryant's Extravaganza Phillips. Harry Bryant is a comedian who understands thoroughly how to hit the foibles of mankind in a pleasant manner and without offending good taste. As an actor manager he believes in keeping abreast of the times, discarding all mildewed ideas and old traditions and replacing all them with new, fresh and up-to-date material. While Mr. Bryant is the star, he does not arrogate to himself the right to furnish the whole show, but on the contrary, has surrounded himself with artists of ability and a large chorus of girls. Many of the features peculiar to vaudeville, comic opera and musical comedy, will be found In the entertainment given 'at the New Phillips, where Bryant's Extravaganza will be the attraction Sept. 20th, Thursday night.
