we would state that they have worked to our
entire satisfaction. and are certainly superior
to nything Of the kind we have YET tested, As
our shipments of cotton have been light
during the period named. our hands have
not rs yet had sufficient practice to rem

Fuller, but we think 1t quite safe TO say
that we can turn out five hu 1dred bales per
working day Of ten hours. We have not had
an opportunity OF testing the actual gain In
storage. but are confident it 4, fully swelve to
fifteen per cent We will use the Puers upon
our three presses and feel confident that a fair
trial is all that is necessary to secure their gem
eral adoption.
The Grip s'rie IL certainly the strongest and
best tie we have ever used, for in spite Of the
greater tension of the bands. none OF the ties
have broken. and very few bands break after
leaving the press. It's general adoption by
planters would secure the delivery OF their
cotton in better order, and would effect o saving
In the cost Of compressing, as all other ties have
to be thrown aside In the compress when the

THE EARLY RISING DELTSIOy.

For farmers and those who live In localities
where people can retire at eight or nine o'clock In
the evening, the old notion about early rising Is
still appropriate. But he who is kept up TIL ten,
or eleven, or twelve o'clock, and then rises at Ave
or six, because Of the teachings OF some old ditty
about "early 10 rise" is committing sin against
his own soul. There is not one man In ten thous-
and who can afford TO do without seven or eight
hours sleep. All the stuff written about great
men who slept only three or four hours night is
apocryphal. They have been put upon such
small allowance occasionally, and prospered; but
no man ever yet kept healthy In body and mind
for a number Of years with less than seven hours
sleep. Il you can get to bed early, then rise
carly. fyou cannot get to bed till late then rise
late. II may he as proper for one man 10 rise at
eight as II is for another to rise at ive. Let the
rousing bell be rung at least thirty minutes be.
fore your public appearance. Physicians say that
sudden jump out Of bed gives irregular motion
to the pulses. 1t takes hours TO get over a too
sudden rising. II is barbarous TO expect children
instantly to land on the center Of the floor at the
call OF their nurses, the thermometer below zero
Give us time, after you call US, to roll over yare
at the world full in the face, aud look before We
leap.
