WTine Words ipid is a crank The exception is the rule The real hero is born that way The weary sinner is the surest penitent Some hearts grow softer by hard knocks The wilder the species the read ier to produce The loveliest things are those somebody else gets Every positive delight is a cause for possible repining Kioses are the pouctuation marks in the charter of love Suspicion is the fire at which fools light their intelligence Womaun hysterical tendency has lost her many a kingdom A man loobos everything when he wins a womans contempt The re ellion of the body is pun ished with disinheritance of the soul A man must ask for a womans hand but the heart goes without the asking The procrastinator will get to the graveyard just as soon as the man who hurries No one can tell what toy will de light the heart of the child or the soul of a man There is about as much rejoicing over a good man lost as there is over a bad one saved It is only in popular quotable documeuts that men are born with the constitutional blessing of free dom and equality

Coutona During the week under review the only signi ication change in the con dihlns surrounding the cotton market has been the appearance of Eiglish and Continental spinners as large buyers of actual cotton Sales of spot cotton in Liverpool since Friday the 13th inst are estimated at 54000 bales as against 43000 bales for the preceding week This icreaie in the demand for actual cotton is attributable to a disposi tion on the part of spinners to give inore credence to the reports of crop damage on this bide the water The result of this increased demand for cotton has been to stimulate pri ces and yesterday the high water mark for the week namely 8 27 for January was reached On Friday last January contracts sold at 8 19 but mnder liquidating sales induced by the lack of speculative demand jfr cotton prices gradually receded until on Monday the 16th inst enlee were made at 796 Snite that time however Europe appears to have awakened to the fact that perhaps after all there is more truth in the reports of crop damage then they have heretofore be willing to acknowledge This fact is evidenced by their increased purchasea
