Butter shows little change except for factory 
which Is higher, and best State dairy which has ad¬ 
vanced one cent. The market generally is well sup¬ 
plied and there is no disposition to make heavy pur* 
chases. The only encouraging feature of the market 
is the cooler weather which favors trade. A large 
part of the arrivals are below the quality that In¬ 
sures good sales. Export business Is small.

but they are now doing better. Cranberries are sell 
ing moderately. Gooi table prices are In demand.

Poultry Is doing better especially for prime quali¬ 
ties. Receipts have been moderate all around and 
demand good for all excepting chickens and geese. 
Many of the arrivals of turkeys, especially If fine, are 
held off the market for Thanksgiving trade, which 
makes the stock small. Next week is the time for 
the rush. There is no telling what the market will be 
then, but choice stock which arrives in fine shape, 
never goes begging. The weather for the past few 
days has been favorable for handling dressed stock.

A POPULAR FAMILY. 
Jennie: “How is it, Kate, that you alw*y» 
Beem to ‘ catch on ’ to tho last new thing ? Do 
what I may, you always seem to get ahead 
of me.” 
Kate : “ I don’t know: I certainly do not 
make any exertion in that direction.’’ 
Jennie : “ Well, during the last few months, 
for example, you have taken up painting, 
without any teacher ; you came to the rescue 
when Miss Lafarge deserted her Delsarte cluss 
so suddenly, and certainly we are all improv¬ 
ing in grace under your instruction; I heard 
you telling Tommy Eames last evening how 
his club made mistakes in playing baseball: 
you seem to be up on ail the latest * fads,’ and 
know just what to do under all circumstances; 
you entertain beautifully; and in the last 
month you have improved so in health, owing, 
you tell me, to your physical culture exercises. 
Where do you get all of your infoi'mation 
from in this little out-of-the way place?—for 
you never go to the city.” 
Kate: “Why, Jennie, you will make me 
vain. I have only one source of information, 
but it is surprising how it meets all wants. I 
very seldom hear of anything new but what 
the next few days bring me full information 
on the subject. Magic? No! Magazine! 
And a great treasure it is to us all, for it 
really furnishes the reading for the whole 
household: father has given up his magazine 
that he has taken for years, as he says this 
one gives more and better information on 
the subjects of the day; and mother says 
that it is that that makes her such a famous 
housekeeper. In fact, wo all agree that it is 
the only really family magazine published, 
as we have sent for samples of all of them, 
and find that one is all for men, another all 
for women, and another for children only, 
while this one suits every one of us; so we 
only need to take one instead of several, and 
that is where the economy comes in, for it is 
only $3.00 a year. Perhaps you think I am 
too lavish in my praise; but I will let you see 
ours, or, better still, send 10 cents to the pub¬ 
lisher, W. Jennings Demo rest, 15 East 14th 
Street, New York, for a sample copy, and I 
shall always consider that I have done you 
a great favor; and may be you will be cutting 
us out, as you say we nave the reputation of 
being the best informed family in town. If 
that bo so, it is Demorest’s Family Magazine 
that does it."
