RECEIPTS Oil ALL ' STOCK DECLINES DUG LAST KEEK

By WILLIAM R. 8 AN BORN - A total ef 114,000 lass cattle. 121.000 less sheep," and 138,000 fewer hogs were recelred at the seren principal : markets last week, compared with the totals for the week ending Saturday, - December 20. The combined total ot ; lire stock receipts, 808,000 head, show.ed a decline of 374.000, as compared with the previous week, when 1,190,000 head were marketed in the central west.' . '! .:,-' . A comparison of holiday week prices -With those prevailing one year ago will . also be interesting. Hogs advanced to '814 at Chicago on Saturday, against ,817.80 on the same date in 1918. During this week the average price - of hogs In that market was 817.60, as against an average price of but 313.52

during holiday week this year. The

sz difference in cattle averages ft not so

marked; these being 813.90 last week, v compared with 816.40 for the same

week in mg. Sheep and lambs both

- ruiea . nigner by comparison with - a - W go; sheep selling at an average of 810.10 against 89.75. and . lambs

E averaging 817.70 against 814.85 dur-

mg enrutmas week In 1918. : t. , Cattle Tod Heavy.

2T Without attempting comparative de-

7, xavs, a review or the 14 principal markeU of. the country, east and west, r: chows that the flaures siren in a com-

Z parlson -of 1918 and 1919 Uve stock

- prices at Chicago will apply, as to

values and differences throughout all

tne territory east of the Rockies. Cattle acted ton heavy at Chicago on

r Saturday, but made an actual gain of - from 50 cents to 81.25 during the

- week. The average, price of hoss. at

-413.83 on Saturday, was the hiarhest

T average of the week, but the week's

average price was about 40 cents lower than In the previous week at 313.62. There being a sharp decrease in the receipts of hogs at Indianapolis on Saturday, only 6,500 head, prices were maintained on a parity with Friday's figures, In spite of a very limited shipping demand. The bulk of all good hogs sold at $14.25. or just 50 cents higher than the prevailing figure on Saturday, December 20. The lively demand for pigs on Saturday advanced prices at the week end, the best ranging at from $13.75 to 314.26. Common, thin pigs sold as low as $13 and packing sows brought from $12.60 to $12.75. The bullish feature at Indianapolis last week, as elsewhere, was a curtailment ot all live stock receipts on account of the holiday celebration.

GLEN MILLER MARKET Holiday week receipts at Glen Milleft were very small, compared with the week ending Saturday, Dec. 20. The amount paid out for hogs' last week fell just under $7,000, and the total payments were under $10,000, as compared with $40,000 for the week preceding Christmas. In addition to the 211 head of hogs marketed at the local yards last week, 20 veals, weighing 3,065rpounds, and costing $486, went over the scales, together with a few cattle. It Is expected that receipts will be heavier this week, but by no means as large as the average for the first three weeks of the month.

She Married An Average Man v . - BY ZOJi BBC3XOT

I-

A Constantinople telegram announces the engagement of Princess Sabiha, the Sultan's youngest daughter, to Prince Eumer Faruk, eldest son of Prince Abdul Medjid.

I am out of the" frying pan of suspicion into the fire of new complications. Jim's story of that horrible night-(U-seems . month ago., but was little more than a week) proves, as Athena said, that "everything la possible, and. that a man hasn't necessarily taken a drink because . he emerges from a cafe wiping I his mouth!" . : . l-. - It seems a friend telegraphed Jim there was a position open as . manager of his plant about a hundred miles from New York. If Jim would come down Immediately by tram and talk things over, Mr. Oakes would drive him down tftat evening In his car. '

Jim, hurrying for the train, left

word with Miss Mollle, at the office, to telephone me he would be home as early as they could motor back from Hammond's Corners.; With true melodramatic Instinct, fate arranged that particular morning to have the switchboard at our' apart

ment out of order. Miss Mollle fully

Intended sending the boy uptown later with a message. But she had a date with ' the bookkeeper for a "Tabble-dote" and theatre afterward, and, being a perfectly human young woman, forgot all about my message! While I worked myself into a fine

frenzy over Jim's failure to come home, Jim and Mr. Oakes were struggling with a broken axle on a country

road three miles rrom a human habitation! - " "I got home at half-past three In the

morning," Jim said, recounting the

story.- "The elevator boy said you

had gone out at midnight, with a bag. leaving no message. Now, when a man comes in worn to the bone with

fatigue, cussing automobiles and milk

trams in all tne languages at nis com'

mand, needing eats and a bath and

sleep, it Jars him, Ann, to find a dark

fiat and a wife gonel

"I knew something, must have gone wrong with the message, and that

your Imagination, full of Fanny Frls

bie as it was, bad conjured up a nice.

Juicy scandal. I knew that '

"Never mind the rest, Jim," I Interrupted. "Let's not be bitter. And

by the way, what did you mean by saying over the phone that you were

going to leave me here at Athena's? I'm so eager to get home, Jim. Of course yoji were Joking." "No, I wasn't Joking." said Jim. soberly. "I've done a heap of think-

tag alone there at that flat, Ann. As I told you, I was on the point of going away when you called me up. I I may still go to look ever the situation at Hammond's Corners for a few weeks. - You'd be better off here." Jim paused, evidently expecting a reply. But I was too dumbfounded to speak. With a steady gate 1 forced him to dontlnue. :-Ji There are reasons," he struggled on "why I rather wjsh to leave New York. Things are rotten at the office. The managership Oakes offers me

looks good. It would lead to an inter

est in the works." Jim said more, but I dldnt listen. Something kept shouting In my brain, "Fanny Friable Is one or the reason he wants to go. Let him! Ldt him! Jfe the best way!" And he has gone to take the midnight train. And I am still at Athena's, dased, stuplfied. Out ot the complexity of thought I am plunged into at Jim's sudden going, after I had supposed everything was cleared, only one tact comes: I shall die if we have to go to Hammond's Corners! (To be. continued.) Grace Pastor Talks

on New Year's Ideals

' - 1 r "Art- Adequate New Year's Ideal

was the title of a sermon by the Bev. A. H Backus at the Grace M. E. church 8unday morning. The text

"For Me to Live Is Christ,- was used by the pastor. In part the Rev. Mr. Backus said: "This Is one of the finest utterances of a completely surrendered life that can be found anywhere in the entire word of God. To Paul Christ was all In all. How appropriate for our meditation when, at the close of the old year we are asking ourselves such questions as these: What, Is my life? What is my conception of it? What is my personal relationship with God? What is the record of the past? What are my plans tor the future? "One and only one conception of life is adequate. It is that which centers about Jesus Christ as man's perfect ideal of human life and conduct. We derive our life from Christ, he is the sustainer of our life, and he is the inspiration and dynamite back of our lives to make efficient our Christian activities."

Organ Recitals at 6rcte '' -. Cksrch tlease Aaditres ;' Large audiences heard both recitals of Gatty Sellarsi British organist, at the Grace Methodist, Sunday after, noon and evening. Mr. Seilars" performances pleased his audiences In both recitals..
