nator w. ]. Thoms wrote OF his friend and
contributor Charles Wentworth Dixie. might
well be applied to the journal they both loved:
The distinguishing feature of his character

it's value and importance, even in the minutest
points and questions Of literary history In all
his writings the enforcement Of this great prin-
ciple as the only foundation Of literary honor
and responsibility was his undertaking aim and

Test of the Roundlap Cotton Bale In New
England Mills

Test of the Roundup Cotton Bale In New
England Mills
Mr.. VIM. G. Lowering a lead
ing New England Cotton manu-
facturer says:
The Roundlap Bale of the Am
erican Cotton Company continues
to win favor with the manufac-
turers of New England as well
as with the splnners Of Europe.
You can readily understand why
this should be SO, in view Of the
fact that after making a very
thorough investigation in one OF
nv mills last summer l found
that the average breaking strain
of yarn spun from this bale is
about 25 per cent greater than
the strength of the yarn spun
from the old bale.
