Nelson. Give today to the virtures ; let to morrow have yices. G. H. Seager was in Cody this week on business. James and Eosn. Mone expect to move to Cody this full.

Chas. Sellers says he isn't going to bach long. Get your tambour ines ready. W. H. Sellers stopped all night with Mike Mone last week and had a good visit. Graft is amazingly infectious : one don't have to be exposed to catch it and have it hard. John Bishop and two of his friends were out to his ranch taking in a few grouse ibis week. Every day adds thousands to list of those who regret that their dead were not treated more considerately while living. JTwas ever thus : Over a century ago it was written thieves at home must hang ; but he that puts into his over gorged and bloated purse the wealth of India's province , is honored , The man who plunders his fel- lowmen of millions in business and gives away a few thousand is a philanthropist and a Christian ; he who steals a dollar and gives noth ing is a thief.

Decem ber 2nd to Jth. The International Live Stock Sbow opens this year under condit ions more favorable than ever. TL e Coliseum , a handsome new structure built for this purpose , will be com pleted and used for the first time. The display of live stock is to be so complete that it promises to ev en excel the perfection of former years. Professor Herbert W. Munford of Illinois is quoted in the following short but pithy comment on the International : "It is at the International that breeders and buyers mingle to mut ual advantage. Tbe breeJer becomes better informed as to approved market types , and thus the Inter national becomes a potent factor in giving direction to the breeders' ef forts toward live stock improve ment. " Low rates over the North-western Line from all points west will be announced soon. Weather Data.
