In every country 1T is we'll known

universally a popular difficulty. Many

TOUCH DELUSION.

A Simple Experiment Which Produces
Astonishing Results.
The various "optical illusions" by
means of which straight lines are
caused to appear crooked, and objects
of equal size are rendered, to all ap-
pearance, decidedly unequal, are more
or less familiar to every reader, but
there are other equally striking de-
ceptions of the senses that are not SO
frequently experimental with. A
French savant, says Youths Com.
panion, has recently pointed out sever
al surprisingly easy ways In which we
are misled in our perception Of heat
and cold and of pressure.
A simple and convincing experiment
of this kind may be tried in the follow
ing manner: Take two silver dollars
and place one of them upon marble
table, or mantel, while the other is
rubbed brislxly between the hands. In
this manner a slight difference of
temperature between the two pieces of
metal will be produced.
Then ask some one to incline his
head backward closing his eyes. Lay
the warm dollar upon his forehead for
a moment, remove it, and quickly sub
be able to ca avince him that they are
of equal wcic ht. The cold piece al
ways seems 20 be much heavier than
the other.
The explanation of this phenomenon
is that the metal which has been
rubbed between the hands has assumed
nearly the temperature of the body,
and when it is placed upon the fore
head the sense of touch is affected by
the pressure alone.
But the metal which has been
cooled, being at lower temperature
than the skin, affects the sense in a
double manner, and the subject of the
experiment, not being able to distin-
guish clearly '>etween the effects, in
stinctively ascribes the entire sensa-
tion to pressure alone.

 Chicago, Dec. 10.-The bull campaign in wheat which seemed yesterday to be on the verge of success, took sudden grief and at the close holders had almost lost all the profits from the advance promised them. There was all kinds of selling to be seen, the most notable being that of the elevator concerns and the big professionals. Ar mour was a conspicuous depressing factor, whilst Linn and Gudahy were credited with being almost equally influential on the sell ing side. At noon Bradstreet'S report of a decrease of 475, ,000 bushels in the worlds vis- ible supply was received. It was viewed as a bullish document, but the crowd was gen. orally long of wheat and was willing to sell some. Prices did not rally much on the figures. May wheat opened at 62l2c, sold between 625s and 6l7sc, closing at 62e, 7sM1c under yesterday. Cash wheat was 12a%4c per bushel lower
 Corn-Oecasonal moments of moderate activity were seen in corn but the average was not quite up to the ordinary mark. The corn that was bought yesterday in the mar ket in the hope that the purchases would prove remunerative was sold today, and in some instances the transactions showed a loss rather than profit The trade was local mainly, very few outside orders com ing to hand. The tone of the market was defined by that of wheat. May corn opened at 29c, declined to and closed at 2S4c, asc under yesterday. Cash corn was steady to a shade lower.
 Oats-The oats market presented the same characteristic as corn, and in that line were dull. May oats closed 3sc under yesterday. Cash oats were steady to fractionally lower
 Provisions-Some effort was made to sus- tain provisions at the start, but 1t was un- availing, and at the close lower prices pre- vailed. The hog market was firm, and that was the main influence early, but the de- clining tendency of grain eXerted a more pronounced effect later At the close May pork was 7lac under yesterday and May lard and ribs each 2l1sc lower.

Sln's Cotton Review.

New York. Dec. 1O.-The Suns cotton re- view says:
 Cotton fell points, but recovered this and advanced 12 to IA points, closing steady, with sales of 295 300 bales New Orleans was stronger and moved upward. Liverpool ad- vanced points and then lost point of this.
 Today's features: There was a slight de- cline early in the day, due o the fact that the Liverpool news was not quite so bulish as had been expected, but for all that Liv- erpool sent buying orders, and this. together with heavy buying by New York and New Orleans and other points in the south, speedily turned the tide and prices shot up- ward. A bureau report was issued which points to a crop of only 6,350, 900 bales. More over the spot demand in New York, the south and Liverpool continues on a very lib- eral scale, affording very substantial basis for a rise. The rise is not predicted on speculation or wild guesses about the crop: It is based on a good demand for actual cotton, confident with the reasonable cer- tainty that the crop is decidedly smaller than that of last year. New York bears were nervous and bought freely, Southern banks have plenty of money and they are lending it very willingly. The bulls are standing by their guns, for they think it is a rock-ribbed market against which the bears will dash themselves in vain.

THE MARKETS.
Cotton Letter.

New York, Dec. 1O.-(Special.)-The active demand for spot cotton by American and foreign spinners has put a new face upon the market here. Speculative buyers seem animated by a confidence which they have hardly felt since the big October break and the bears seem more unwilling to sell than at any time during the present year. The government bureau report today, estimating the crop at less than 64OO,00O bales, sharpen ed the demand for cotton, but the market was already very firm. March opened at S.32 and advanced to S49, closing steady at S47dS.49. After the close bidders were offer ing higher prices We think well of the present advance. based as it is upon confi- dent investment buying by the trade. The advance may be slow and broken by reac- tions, but we expect the general tendency to be upward, and on all declines we advise buying for a mode rate profit.
