TORONTO, October 13th.—Therowas little doing in export cattle; prices. in the old country markets are so low that it is impos- sible to send Canadian cattle, at the present price, across the Atlantie with any hope of making a profit. Shippers have lost eon- sideeable lately. Prices to -day were nom- inally from no to 4*c or sometimes 4to per lb, - but sales were slow, and prospects are not cheering. In butcher cattle values were both better and worse ; that is to say, what little choice stuff we had here was a shade firmer, and sold quickly ; but medium and common cattle were weaker. A few choice loads sold at $3.75 and $3.90 per 100 lbabut they mostly contained a few loads. which could be exported. Medium stuff was slow at 3c to no and inferior at Teo to 21e . per lb. Fortunately, the run of cattle was much lighter thin morning than has been the, ease recently. Had it been otherseise prices would have taken a bad tumble. Good cattle are wanted, hut anything else had better be held back if possible for a little while. Bulls, stockers and milkers are quiet and unchanged. A few stockers will sell. Lambs sell fairly well at from $3.70 to $3.90 per 100 lbs. We had ample here to- day,ancl only choice lambs need come along. Shipping sheep were at from 30 to 31c per Ib; bucks are worth 2-tc. Plenty in to -day. Calves will sell if fair to good at from $3 to $8 each, but poor stuff will not go. Hogs were again weaker to -day. On Friday, the top price was 5e per ib; to -day it was 5to for choice, off car hogs, and 5c to 5to per Ib, for hogs off farmers' 'wagons. The prices may last the week, bat it is as well for the farmers to understand that the tendency of_ prices is downward, and that very shottly lower figures are sure to prevail. - A SMALL MAN'S REVE GE. Tinille* the Dignity of Two Wo en In a Cable Car. The al:nail sized, unobtrusive( man gets revenge now and then, as Was ex- emplified yesterday in a Broadway .cable oar bound down town. He got on at Twenty-third street and saws only one eacanteeat Other passenger: who stood up were clinging to the str ps in a semihypuntia condition and did not observe thelvacant place. Two wOtnen, strangera to each other, richly clad and wearing diamond earrings, were the guardians of the vacant space, which Was hardly wide enough to even admit the small man to a Comfortable seat. Zither of the women, hy moving alit - tie, cotild have Made a larger space, 'but they chose to sit as impassive as statues while the diminutive L man ,etrowded into the place. He exhibited - all the signs of beipg uncemfortable; but these implacable cosmopOlitans moved not. At Tenth street a large woman, weighing about 200 pounds, boarded the car. With the air of a '0.hesiterfie1d the small man lifted his _hat and said: "Pray, take my seat." "Thank you, sir," she replied las she started to sit down. Consternation was -depicted upon the faoes of the two rich- ly clad women as they tried to edge -away to make the apace wider. It was too late, for the heavy woman crashed into the pat and came in contact with the other women. There were the noise of crumpling elotla and the switih of .skirts as the two women tried to move from the weight pinning part of their dresses down. It was a scramble tO give the heavy woman enough room, and all dignitywas lost. The passengers united, estef none more so than the sia1l4nax, 'who had had his revenge.—New ork Commercial.

A piece, of ribbon, a feather and a flower are sewed on a hat and it is supposed by some people to be trimmed, bat -it isn't. It's hats trimmed is above mentioned that spoil the appearance of many good-looking women. When a woman comes here for a hat or bonnet we 'study .her features, her eomplexion, the shape of her head, and her general appearance, and a hat is secured that is becoming to her. A hat may be very stylish and at the same time be very unsuitable for the wearer. Many women wholookwell, with their hats off look positively homely when seen with their hats on. You might as Well have a hat that becomes you and by buying here you are guar-. anteed that your fall hat or bonnet will be satisfactory to you, and it will cost you no more than .you have been accustomed to pay—probably a little teas.
