EFFECT ON COTTON.
Arkansas Merchants Ship to Memphis
 to Secure Insurance.

Helena, Ark, April 20 An unex- pected effect of the anti trust law has developed in this city in the con- duct of the cotton business. Here tpfore merchants, planters and cot ton brokers have had no difficulty in placing all the Insurance they want ed. The stock of cotton is now about 5000 bales, and policies of in- surarea are expiring every day.
 Nss=rs c L. Moore & Bros, the ta &'s receivers of cotton in this { tl anped eco bales to Memphis last eek, and are billing out anoth- CT lot today, making more than GOO bales. Other merchants are shipping smaller lots as their policies expire, tor in Memphis they can insure and here they cannot. One merchant, who is a stock1older and director in thp Helena compress, told me today that the compress had lost fully $l,500 in compress chargts on the cotton already shipped out.
 Another instance showing the far reaching effects Of this law transpir- ed today. It was the case of P. A. Luke. a farmer. Luke owed Cald- well & Smith of Memphis, a sum of money, and bis farm was advertised for sale. He arranged f0i a loan from George Walker. real estate agent, a part of the considerat tion to be policy of insuran'e oL his gin and sawmtll. The policy could not be obtained from any source and to- day Luke's farm was sold.

KISSES SENT BY MAIL.
Invention of a Washington Girl for th.
 Benefit of Lovers.

Benefit of Lovers.
 Since the day the first love letter was entrusted to the mail4-and that is q very long time ago-sweethearts all over the land have mourned the truth of the sorrowful axiom that "kisses can't he sent by post
 Now, those sorrowful ones can take heart, for there has arisen a guile to point a path through the desert ofab- scnce. \ Washington girl has in vented a method of sending kisses by mail Never again need the signing but distant maiden place an inky cross al the bottom of her letter as the con. ycntional symbol of a long-distance kiss, for this Washington wonder worLerha devised a method by which she can present to the favored one the living image of a kiss from her own rosy lips. Itis a sort of sign label, in. capable of forgery CT successful imi. tation It Is the yeritable docu- mentary evidence of kiss given and received, and 1t may yetproye to be of vast legal import.
 Like many another good thing the mallable kiss was discovered by acc. 3ent-at least that IS what the in. 3entress says. She also declares that II Vas first imprinted upon paper, but that also, ls statement unsupported by independent testimony. The first kiss ever successfully sent by mail is m evidence, but where are the papers showing the experimental stages: Even paper, be t remembered, was originally parchment-and pareh mcnt k skin.
 According to the inyentress the method of the discovery was this: II happened one day that she wished to write a letter 10 him" It was a ehil. ly day and a blustery-she says-and 10 protect her carmine lips from the salute of the winds she reached for little box of saIyc upon her dressing table and herewith liberallyanointed her lips And in that salye there was considerable percentage of rouge.
 The letter having been finished, il was adorned al the foot with the con. yentlonal brace ofinky crosses. Now. she hadn't seen him for very long lIne, and the last letter he wrote was really mce one, so that it was under. standable that, the crosses bavino been made-and blotted-she should press ,,,, her lips just once to the letter.
