bic brief space Of time long web or bolt
OF cloth is produced. The different charac-
tiers OF the fabrics made depend upon the
number and motion given to the sheaths of
harness." through which the threads of
the web passes. Plain goods require but
two sheaths, "twills" three to four, accord
ing to character, ''fgured" require from
four to fourteen, according to the kind of
goods.
Such is a very brief description of the
process of the manufacturing Of cotton
fabrics of every character. Purposely
as few technical terms as possible
have been employed. Even describing the
parts and functions of machines, we have
avoided the use of other than the terms
which our readers will understand. The
description, though not minute, is sufficient
for our purpose.
1t would take two columns of the AUa-
Lageche to enumerate the names of all the
fabrics made OF cotton contained in the dry
goods lists OF merchants. 1t is sufficient to
say that three-fourths of the entire human
race are habituslly clothed in garments
made Of cotton cloth. The bride In beauty,
in the very centres of civilization, goes to
the hymeneal altar to plight her vows, clad
In garments made OF the flores of the cotton
plant. From the highest to the lowest, the
learned and the unlearned, the rich and the
poor, the civilized and the enlightened, and
even the savages Of "dim swarthy Africa"
or which the poets sing. as well as the 'lofty
savages," like Oh-no-We-ah and General
Sitting Bull, wear cotton garments.
But even this is lot all. The sails which
''whiten every sea-" and the cords and
twines and threads which are employed in
making them, all are products of the cotton
plant.
Many as are the blessings which mankind
have derived from the product of the cotton
plant-the blessed gossypium herbacium-
they are destined to be greatly multiplied.
Already the sweet, clean oil extracted from
the seed is forming an important article of
food, one which is rapidly supplanting ami
NAL fats in the domestic economy of the
people, not only Of the United States, but
OF the civilized world.

A NAPoLEoNIG STORY. -When Napo-

little money was made in France unless
by himself or with his permission.
This Ouvrard found out. Ouvrard,
who, born of humble parents in ITO.
was worth 10000, 900 francs by 1900,
was a creditor of the government for
100000 in 1912, and was ruined in
1920,
He was rival to the Emperor in the
affections of Mile. Georges, and one even
ing had arranged with her to sup with
him at his villa of Rueuil, when he re-
ceived a note of regrets, as she had
received an invitation equal to com.
mand from Napoleon. Odyrard's reply
was that she would find a check for
100, coo francs under her napkin at sup
per that evening if she supped with him,
whereat she invented an indispo;ition
and threw Napoleon over.
Next morning 0uvrard was summoned
to the Tuilleries.
chow much profit have you made out
of yonr army contract this years"
"Four millions of francs, Sire"
"That is too much. You will pay half
of it back into the treasury. Good morn.
