New York, Sept. 21.-The market for dry
goods continues quiet. In cotton goods
the demand is limited, although dealers
have no fear for the future of the season.
They look for a lull in trading during the
present and the approaching week. Later,
it is believed, the recorder business will be
in fun blast, and returns will be adequate
in both cotton and wooden lines. The
market is active among jobbers and, al
though the demand Is scattered, it contin-
ues to make a fair aggregate in all divis-
ions of the market. The export trade is
still quiet Buying for South American
use still continues in fair proportions
Staple cottons, specifically, are steady and
firm Print cloths quiet at 25s cents for
extras Odd goods are steadily bought
at well-sustained prices Printed and
woven cotton goods are firm and in active
demand. Wooden and worsted goods in
all grades are firm.

Advice to Brides.

In an editorial in the Richmond
Christian Advocate Rev. j. j. Latter
ty says: 1.-The usual wedding
epidemic is upon us, and prospective
brides in a tender mood are asking
our advice and blessing. We would
say: Expect happiness, but don't
forget to help make it. And expect
much of the man who has proved his
good sense by asking for your hand,
but don't forget that he is suscepti
BILE to East winds and liable to fall
upon days when there is no comfort
tor mortal except in being cross. A
prudent woman forseeth the evil and
hideth herself. That is to say, she
becomes nil-passes off into thin air,
as it were. Don't say word, not
even tender word; he does not want
it; he only wants TO be alone. By
and by the mood will change and the
demons will leave him, and he will be
found sitting clothed and in his
right mind"
