other Markets Fairly Active.
Savannah, Aug. Sl.-The most interest
ing feature in business circles to-day was
the fact that it was the closing of the
cotton. year. Operators viewed the figures
of receipts, exports and prices and with
out much comment on the past, expressed
themselves IN a hopeful manner for the
coming season. They all agreed the sit
uation at this time of the year was never
better, and that it was best to 'let by
cones be by-gones" The local market
continued to hold a strong undertone.
Spirits turpentine was in good demand
but rosin was rather quiet at a decline on
medium grades. The wholesale markets
were busy during the half-business day.
The following resume of the different mar
kets will show the tone and the quotations
at the close to-day:

MICROBES OF OLD AGE
A BaCterlOlOsbt Thinks They Always

COMPARISONS WITH ANIMALS
The VeRetarIans. IL Is Claimed. Live
Much Longer Than the Car
nivorous Races Rheuma-
tism and Gout.

That bacteria have anything to do with
our age would seem to be bacteriology
gone stark, staring mad; yet such would
seem to be more than n possibility. Physi-
ologists have long known that a character
istic change takes place in the tissues IN
advanced life, and its causes form an in
teresting subject of investigation. Tho
following extracts are from an editorial
article on the subject in Modern Medicine
for November:
"A few years ago an Italian bacteriolo-
gst proclaimed that he had discovered the
germ of old age The idea was secuted
by all scientific men, but there may he
something in 1t after all. At any rate
there seems TO be good ground for belev-
ing that germs, If not a specific germ, arc
mt least one of tho most important in
fuences which brings on old age.
''It has long been known that the
ptomains or toxic substances produced by
microbes are capable of setting up vari-
Gus degenerative processes. Degenerative
changes in the joints, the liver, the kid
neys and other organs have been directly
traced TO this cause.
The writer has for some time held the
opinion that the degenerative changes in
cident 10 advancing age are due to the
same cause; namely, the toxins absorbed
from the allmentary canal. These toxins
are constantly present in greater or less
quantity, according TO the extent 10 which
Preventative and putrefactivo processes
prevail IN the stomach and intestnes
These processes depend, first, upon the
integrity OF the digestive process in the in
dividual, and, secondly, upon the charac-
ter of the substances introduced into the
alimentary canal as food.
a.
the thought that while all human beings
must necessarily be constantly subject 10
the influence of toxic substances gem
Grated in their own alImentary canal, and
consequently must grow old and succumb
sooner or later TO the degenerative pro-
cesses of old age, these processes may be
greatly accelerated by subsisung upon
diet which favors the production of toxic
substances IA the a!imentary canal.
ali this theory is correct we should ex-
pect TO find the greatest longevity among
those animals and those men who subsist
upon the simplest and purest diet, other
conditions being equal. IL would be i'm
possible TO find a sharper contrast than
that which exists in this respect between
carniyerous and vegetarian animals. Con-
trast. for example, the dog, which grows
old. becomes rheumatic and intirm in ; /

The same IS true among men. The great 4

These people have been practical vege-
tarians for so many centuries-perhap
from tho earliest ages-that anatomists
have noted a distinct difference in the
length of their almentary canals as COM
pared with those of the fiesh-eating Ger
mans, whose ancestors were cannibals.
"Rheumatism in its protean form is one
OF the most constant and distressing dis
orders of old age. The relation between
English roast beef and the gout and
rheumatism which prevails so extensively
among Engllshmen was cleverly pointed
out by that distinguished physician and
essayist, j. Miner Fothergil.
"The above considerations, If not con.
sidered absolutely conclusive, are GER
tainly worthy of thought"

The lieutenant stopped to give one swift
look about. then walked straight across
the polished floor. In front of Agnes VIII
ton he stopped and looked at her quietly
for moment before he spoke. In that
moment he had time to see that an opal
glowed like a coal OF living fire upon her
hand.
She looked up and met his glance
steadily, but she was very pale.
"There is a Legend" she said, bending
toward her, that if the love that gave it
grows cold the opal's fire will grow dim,
Do YOU believe it?''
"Yes," she answered, so low that he
could just hear the words, "but mine
never has grown dim. Its fire has warmed
me through all the long years-oh, so
long," she said, leach one longer than the
other. But knew you would come-the
opal told me-"
A little later some one said:
"Why there is Jack Phelps dancing

perately three years ago and she sent him
away. But he is back, like moth to the

"The CANDLE" said another, .'is that
