New YORK, Aug. S-The Suns cotton
review says: Futures opened buoyant, and so
continued until near the close of change then
partially declined, closing steady at 9ol1 points
advance from yesterdays closing prices The
early buoyancy was due mainly TO sharp riss
in Liverpool, where the bears appear to have
put up that market 4-6425-64d. The details of
the weather for July published in this morn
iug's Financial Chronicle were rather unfavor-
able to crop prospects and aided the rise But
when September sold at isc and January at
&c, there was some selling TO realize and
tpe bears pl0cked up courage to put out lines

THE PRINCES INCOME
He Gets a Lot of Money, But Has
to Keen a Princely State.

He Gets Lot of Money, But Has
to Keep Princely State.
The Prince of Wales budget consists
of 100000 of civil list and the revenues
of the duchy of Cornwall, amounting
from e3S,000 to 100000 a year. The
princess, on her marriage, received a
more than modest dowry from her
father, the King of Denmark, and she
would have been positively poor in her
own right had parliament not voted in
her behalf civil list of 100000. Each
of her children receives from the cOun-
try an annual income of $4,000.
He has three fixed residences, besides
the houses he temporarily rents on
given ons-MarlbOrOugh House,
where only the building is looked after
by the state; Sandringham, in the
Scotland, which, although in the gift OF
the queen, has to be kept up on his pri
vate purse. These three residences ell
tail the presence of an army of retainers
-caretakers, coachmen and grOomS,
keepers, heaters, gillleS, gardeners and
| hangers on.
Independently of these the household
of the prince consists necessarily OF a
great number of functiOnaries and Of
ficials with whom he is bound to sur
round himself. He has comptroller
treasurer, who is no less a person than
a lieutenant general; three chamber
lains, four equerries in chief and six
others who are supplementary, private
secretary and librarian, superin-
| tendent of the household, with two as
sistants; a house and three honorary
chaplains, three house and five hon
orary doctors, three surgeons and a
substitute and dentist with yearly

Dancing Men to Order.

1t is proposed in London, says a
writer, that, owing to the scarcity of
"dancing men, in proportion to "danc-
ing girls,' there should be recognized
professional purveyor of the male arti-
cle-one who would keep sort of house
of call for eligible dancing men. A
needy fioater in the swim might make a
good thing by acting on this suggestion
and furnishing suitable light-footed
gentlemen and secondhand cavaliers to
assist some of our fair ones in eking
out their existence at the suburban re-
sort, at most of which there is woeful
lack of men. The girls might get up a
dance, for instance, find out how many
men Short they were, and wire to the
establishment in this city for flour
blondes; three tall, one short; mus
taches, sentimental" OF whatever other
style of cavalier they wanted. This is
a great scheme, worthy of Ward Nc
Allister.

morning dresses when simply made
with belted waist and nearly straight
skirt. A plated frill trims the neck and
wrists, and double frill is down the
front of the waist; wider plating
forms a flounce at the foot. Open
patterned white embroidery or the new
square-meshed laces are sometimes
preferred for trimming. A white silk
belt or sash of black velvet ribbon
completes the dress.
New dresses of white English serge for
the country, for mountains and sea-
shore, are very simply made, and are
kept white throughout. The trimming
is white braid third of all inch wide,
tubular OF basket woven, put in frogs.
in disks, or bombes, as the French say,
or else wider white Hercules braid is
used in parallel rows OF graduated
widths.
Chiffon gowns are ideal dresses for
summer dances aud dinner parties.
Young ladies wear the entire dress of
white, pink, yellow or blue chiffon.
with low corsage, pulled sleeves and
gathered skirt over satin Innings. The
sleeves may he quite short or else the
length of the ann. with an open " ii
space on the outside, extending from
the top to the elbow. Young matrons
wear chiffon or silk muslin gowns OF
pale gray or black striped throughout
with very narrow satin rlbbOnS-mauve
ribbons on gray and pink on black.
Collars continue to grow in height. In
the back they often reach to within an
inch of the crown OF the hat, leaving
barely space for the Psyche knot to
peep forth. A good plan is to make
white wool dresses with a coat bodice
with jacket fronts that open on remova-
BILE vests of crepe de chine, or OF the
deeper crinkled japanese Grape, of
which there should be three or four
one white, another yellow, and third
pink or green. as best suits the wearer's
complexion. The coat is rather short,
and is even all around. The lining s
fastened down the front to the waist
line, while the jacket fronts meet only
at the throat and fall straight thence:
they are lined with white silk and
trimmed with eight brandebourgs or
frogs of white braid, each of two rows
of braid, four inches long, curled in
three loops at the ends.

country. like everything else, has its
counterbalancing disadvantages. and
often one OF these is the distance from
a doctor. Before leaving town, the
mother should ask her family physician
for few powders of pepsin and bis
muth, or any simple remedy he may
wish to prescribe for indigestion, with
full directions for its use. She should
take with her a bottle of lime water
and another of pancreatin, or one OF
the other preparations for peptonlzlng
milk, SO that she may be prepared Tor
emergencies.
The purity of milk. even in the best
surroundings, is always open to queS-
ton, because it absorbs germs so read
lily. That used for food for a baby
should be steriliZed to make it perfectly
safe. This can be done in the morning
and evening by putting the milk, fresh
from the COW. in bottles of size to
hold enough for each meal. Place these
in a saucepan filled with cold water and
set it on the stove. where it will heat
gradually. After the water boils for
short time, cork the bottles and let
them remain in it for half an hour. Re
move from the stove, and when the
water is cool take out the bottles.
If no ice is to be had, stand them in
stone jar containing water, and wrap
the jar in wet flannel. or put it in a
brook in shady place. When bottle
is opened and all the milk is not used,
throw away the remainder.
Keep the baby in the open air as
much as possible, but do not have it out
il the evening when the dew is falling.
If hammock is slung in the shade it
will sleep better there during the day,
covered with mosquito net, than it will
i'll hot room.
Dress it loosely with gauze flannel
shirt next the skin, and no tight bands.
