1t pays to tie to home people every
time. There is no place like your
own family to go to. They are there
true and firm in foul weather as in
fair. Your joys are their joys; your
sorrows theirs.
Other friends come and go, but
your home family is friendly forever
Their words of good cheer are best;
their criticism kindest, and only for
your own good, Stand by your family.
The closer you are tied to them the
safer you are.
And then stand by your home pas
tors. They are nearest and dearest
to your people. Others may come in;
criticise them and you make them
think you are not doing their whole
duty; make them think you are not
walking in the straight and narrow
way; make the world think that both
are far from right, but it will pay you
to tie to the home pastor. 1t is easy
to find fault. He don't try to do what
is easy, find fault with you, but tries
to lead you kindly to the kingdom of
Christ; that is the hardest but best
way.
Yes, stand by your home preacher.
When others are gone, he is here to
share in your sorrow; to go to your
bedside in sickness or no pay
he goes to the death chamber of the
poor as readily as the rich. When the
hand of grief bears heavily upon you
his sympathies are measured not by
your dollars. but by your sorrows.
Yes, stand by your home preacher, he
is the best.
Stand by your home merchants, too;
they are the best. Their prosperity
is your prosperity. They help to build
up your town, they respond freely
when your friends are needy or in
trouble. When one is in want of the
kindly assistance of his neighbors the
home merchant is called on first,
oftenest and hardest and he responds
freely. When you want anything see
if your home merchant has it or can
get it for you, and merchants stand
by each other.
Stand by your home officials. Up
hold them in their duties. Give them
encouragement in making it law OBJ

Cotton Letter.
 New York, Nov. 20.--(Special)-The mar aket had a more hopeful tone today-the first snews from Liverpool was disappointing and brought in flood of selling orders. which sforced January down to sos on the opening scall, but after these had been executed sprces rapidly improved, and the advance was not checked until January sold at SlS xrealizing sales then caused a reaction in zshich January sold back to SIP. but in the final trading the demand again improved .and the close was steady with January at iS15dS.16. The trade is still very undecided sas to what the crop shortage is going to be tby the end of the year. We hope the receipts .svil have conclusively settled that point and then we shall expect material advance, smean time we shall probably have fiuc- ftuating market and we advise those of our 1friends who are content with a moderate lprofit to buy cautiously upon weak spots.
