Watklna Chronicle, "Heart smashing Is bound to end In Imsliiiinl hunting." proclaimed Charles Darton, tin- c.Milc "What do you know about ll? Yon ticvt'i" had n heart to .smash," taunted Hilly Drew. I'.ort Temple, (he host mid presiding genius at inii'.iy :t sinoko-tulk in the. eozy bachelor iptailors, pricked up his ears, for his friends were getting on a subject which had aeiiulreil a new In lere.st for lilui. He had lately (Vscovcred that lie had a heart, and he was Inclined to feel it hit heady over It. "you are wrong, Hilly," Charles as serted, "for It was a woman's perlldy that bleached my hair years ago," "Story I old brand of romance," an nounced Drew with a wave, of his fat hands. "I fall to sec any romance about the process of Retting Htting at a time of life when a decent young chap of a mushy temperament thinks he Is In love for the only possible time, and the girl plays up the delusion until she llnds what a boob he Is and then lets him drop. "That, in suhstahce," continued the cynic, "was what happened. I was the boob and Miss Doris Ward was the perfidious maiden, ami It happened eight years ago, when I was twenty two. Chortle over It If you Hud It hu morous, because I see the Joke now as plainly as you do. I also see how Miss Doris Ward comes to Dunhury for a winter of sport husband hunting." They laughed at the story, of course all except their host. Ho had been' poking the lire and ho dropped the poker as If it had burned his lingers. The party broke up and no note was taken of anything unusual In Temple's innnner. "Charles, the cynic, Jilted eight years ago by Doris Ward !" mumbled the host as the door shut out the last of his guests. It was like a clip from a blackjack to the senses of Hert-Temple. Twenty-minutes ago the memory of Doris Ward's voice was thrilling through his soul, as he had listened to that voice the evening before. Sure enough, at the ripe age of thlrly-slx he hud fallen heels over bead at tlrst sight. Al though they had been hardly two hours in each other's society he had as good is told her that she was "the wonder ful woman," and that he was prepared to cloe up a marriage contract for the curliest date that could be tlxed upon compatible with the conventions. Now Temple felt sick, dizzy, he- wiiucreii. i was uie oooit ami .miss Doris Ward was the perlldloiis maid en," were the words that bored Into Temple's consciousness. In other words at the callow age of twenty two Charles Darton hud been Jilted by .Miss Ward, ami now he, Herlram Tem ple, nt thirty-six, laid betrayed the same brand of callowness a that youngster, whom Temple had never particularly admired. Now, according to Charles, the cynic, this young woman, whose unique i harm had appealed to Temple's un tutored heart, was a husband hunter. That meant that she was done with the royal sport of killing for amusement, and had taken up the practical voca tion of hugging the game. And It seemed that sin- had marked him Jlert Temple, age thirty-six as a like ly mark. There was little time in which to make up his mind what to do. In an hour he was to call at the Inn to take .Miss Ward motoring. There wasn't time to think out a really good jlan for showing Doris Ward that he was aware of her little scheme of inarrjiiig the tlrst man in Duiihurv whom she chos, to smile up- ... ... i . . . "ii. rM' lie got on; ins car a. in nsi;cu Mollie Clews to go with ll'lil. Temple in his racer, with :li chat tering little magpie snuggled m the seal l.esitle him, slackened the pace in ti"iit of the inn. lie could see .Miss W.i'd at the foot of the walk, wailing for him. He meant to slow up Just enough so sh" would he sure to see how pretty nnd happy .Mollie looked, and then, like a cad, he would speed on and leave the husband hunter to guess what had happened. Chug 1 Tlie racer stopped short. The en gine went dead. At that Juncture Charles Darton came up with his car, and In a twink ling he had .Mollie beside lilin. 'You didn't speak to your or Charles Darton," stammered Temple as Doris took Mollle's place In the stalled motor. "Was Hint Charles Darton?" she ex claimed. "Ueally, I had the itnpros blon he was tall and blond." "lie fjd us' Hort persisted, "that you Jilted him eight years ago. And now you would pretend" "It was my cousin Doris who did the Jilting. She told me all about It. She called him No. '2, If I remember rightly. She Is lots older than'I am nnd different about about lllrtlng." They were still sitting beside each other "in the stalled racer when they were aroused to the passage of time by the purr of Darton's motor return ing with Mollie alter at nours spin. Iu confusion Doris Ward tried to get out and (lee Into tho house. Hut Tem ple, recklessly hilarious and brazen, would not let her go. "lie said you were a husbnrtd hunt er," be told her. "I'm not one any more!" she protested.. (CopyrtKht, I916, by tho McClure Newspa- OHr Avnrtli'ar Kansas City Market Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan. 22. li)l.

A good many cat tle have gone on feed In the last six weeks, and commission men say the run of short fed and warmed up steers may be fairly liberal, with some slump in the price. STOCKEHS AND FEEDERS Feeders continue to get the strong est call, sales of regular feeders mainly from $8 to $11, and frequently above $1), up to $U.f)U, with weighty fleshy steers for a short feed up to $10.4o last week. Stock steers find a ready outlet, at $7 to $8.50, a few cattle tinder $7, and fancy ones above $8.50, some good red 700 lb. steers this morning at $7.50, called a dime liwer than last week. Cows and hei fers sell at $5.35 to $7.50, fancy bred stock heifers last week up to S8.75 HOGS. Receipts continue to run slightly less than corresponding time a year ago, and the market grows stronger, up 25 to 30 cents last week. Quality is better, and range of sales is get ting pretty narrow, bulk today $10.75 to $11.00, best heavies $11.05. A feature today was a car of 2KI lb. pun fed Colorado hogs at $11, only a nickel under the top, and four loads of same class at $10.70, 197 lbs. Light hogs sold up to $10.85. Actions of buyers denote that they need hogs, although stocks of meat are greater that at this time last year. Increase of av erage weights signifies that owners are not rushing their hogs to market, but there is doubtless a disposition to ship as soon as a decent finish has been reached. SHEEP AND LAMBS Regular advances followed each other from day to day last week and prices are about steady today at the extreme top reached, $1 1.10, paid for lambs, $10.20 for ewes, $10.25 for wethers. Pea fed lambs lacking a degree of finish sold at $111.75 to $ L'l.Do and feeding lambs bring up to .'illJ.uO.
