.dBOUT COTTOH.

II has been a week Of rather
startling developments in the cot
ton and grain markets. Cotton
has touched l0c for the first time
In nearly 10 years. This is the
logical and inevitable result of the
position, aided and fastened per-
haps in some degree by speculation,
which intelligent observers have
forseen for many months. The
trade is going out Of the present
season with practical exhaustion of
the supply. In the face Of certain
shortage in the growing crop the
price is reasonable if not low. The
hope that farmers will rush
their cotton TO market as heretofore
leads spinners to expect a lower
range of prices during the early
months of the new crop. That is
all that prevents prices on future
positions from reaching If not ex-
ceeding the present level.
With these conditions and these
known facts, it rests with the farm.
ers and their friends, the bankers,
to say whether the FIRST bale Of the
new crop shall not be forced to the
real velue Of limited supply. II
they will cooperate and feed the
market judiciously 8 cents will be

A Neglected Industry.

1t is astounding that in state
like Texas, the greatest cattle pro.
ducing state in the Union, that so
little attention has been paid a
very important industry, and one
which has proven the salvation of
the farmers in Kansas, Iowa,
Wisconsin and even the more
populous States Of the middle west.
This industry is presented by the
butter and cheese interest, and in
Iowa alone, the product is repre-
scented by over s20,00O,00O.
The natural grasses Of Texas in
its favored grazing sections are
equal in nutriment TO the celebrat-
ed grasses of Kentucky. The
lugunes thrive wonderfully well in
the rich lands of the central aud
southern portions Of the State,
while in the North aud West, the
natural forage is capable Of sup
porting the very finest breeds Of
cattle. This is evidenced by the
magnificent herds of Hereford and
Durham cattle which have, in the
past generation, taken the place OF
the long horned Texas steer.
1t is safe to assert that not one.
twentieth of the people of Texas
use butter on their tables. The
bulk of the so.called butter OF
commerce which finds ready sale
at high prices in the Texas markets
is manufactured product in which
the COW plays but q small part.
This condition can only be due to
either a lamentable ignorance or a

DANGER FROM OVEREATlNG.
Insanity often Caused by Too Lfber-
al Indulgence. In Food.


1t is well known to the few medical
men that many cases Of insanity are
directly due to overeating and the con-
seQuent absorption into the circulation
of toxic matters from the intestinal
tract. and melancholia, whether in mild
or severe form, is generally due to this
cause. Violent paroXysms of temper,
whether in children or adults, are often
properly referable to bad state Of the
blood from this auto toXemia, as are in
deed the exceedingly eXuberant spirits
of old or young at times. Just as we
observe In alcoholic poisoning, some
individuals are made temporarily jolly
and good natured; others are made
ugly and unreasonable.
In view of this condition Of affairs
isn't it rather a wise plan for us all to
consider rather the needs Of the or
ganism for food than the mere ques-
ton of palate tickling, to aim to eat
good instead of bad food and enough
Of it-that is, not too much-tO have
the conditions about right when we
take our meals; in brief to try and
treat our bodies decently even though
we act from a purely sensual point of
view? In no other way can we secure
the highest possible degree of pleasure
on the average. while by acting thus
sensibly we may enjoy practical i'm
munity from disease.
The more exercise we take under
proper conditions, the more we are ex-
posed to cold, and the clearer we keep
from excess in clothing the more we
may eat: hence in order to enjoy the
fullest measure Of table pleasures, we
must live actively. wear as little cloth
ing as is consistent with comfort and
do considerable "roughing sometimes
called hardening. With all this we
should take our meals at times when
the body or brain is NOT oveltired, and
when we have leisure to digest" and
Of all things, we should never eat I'm
less we are hungry. To eat without an
appetite is self abuse Of the most
stupid sort. since 1t affords no pleasure
and is productive Of disease.-Physical
Culture.

The NEGLECTED. Voice.

The voice is the most common and at
the same time the most complex Of hui
man faculties When we listen to it,
we realize nothing Of the many influ-
ences at work in its use. Yet it repre-
sents the character. the mood. the tenn
permanent and the health Of the individ-
ual when left to run in its own way.
If uncontrolled. it will develop much as
q flower garden will develop; the rank
and wcedy nature will come to the
front, and the tones Of exquisite beau
ty will be obscured. Bad daily habits
in the use of the voice will give II
many disagreeable qualities. If con-
trolled, the voice will keep its weeds in
the background and permit only its
beauties to be known. II cultivated,
the weeds will be taken out and the
flowers developed. Press.

JACK TAR'S GROWL.
A Story illustrating the Sailors
Habit of Grumb1ing.

The author Of "From Edinburgh to
the Antarctic" writing of the sailors
habit of grumbling, says: "The dinners
are all the same-that is to say, Mon
days dinners are all alike, and what
we have today we shall have this day
six months hence. Jacks forefather
this day 100 years ago had the same
menu and made the same uncompli-
mentary remarks about the dishes, and
100 years hence on this day Jacks chill
dren will growl over their salt horse
and plumless duff" The author also
tells this yarn" to illustrate that
Jacks habit of grumbling can't be
cured and must be endured:
Once upon time there lived skip
per whose wife said to him that If she
went to sea the poor men would never
find fault with their food. Her hus-
band took her with him on a voyage,
and the good woman attended to the
cooking in the galley herself.
The scouse was thick with fresh veg
cIuDlcS, the DItuu W us Nllltc anu Wilt
out weevlls, the meat was good, and
the duff was almost half plums, but
still the men grOwled.
Then the shippers wife thought Of
the hens she had brought on board to
lay eggs for her husbands breakfast
She took them out Of the coop. wrung
their necks with her own fair hands,
plucked them, roasted them and sent
them to the forecastle on the cabin
china.
Now the men," she said to herself,
Twill know how much we think of their
comfort"
At eight bells she stole forward to
the forccastle to listen to the praise of
her skill as a cook. She looked down
the hatch and saw a big black fist
plunge n fork into the hen and heard a
hoarse voice growl. 81 say. Bill, what

NOT IN THE PLAY.
A Case Where Two Actors Displayed
Presence of Mind.

Presence of Mind.
A short time ago a great historical
play was being given in an Italian
thcater The king had to read his
speech from the throne. Ho was sur
rounded by the court. all the repre-
sentative mobiles of the nation. the gov
ernors Of the provinces and the heads
Of the army.
Clad in his magnificent robes Qined
with rabbit skim he stalked majestic
ally across the stage. and, with fitting
hauteur, slowly assembled the steps
leading to the throne. Every one bowed
low, and the chancellor handed to his
majesty the parchment roll from which
to read the royal speech.
All waited attentively to catch the
words from the royal lips, but his maj
esty found, to his chagrin, that the
roll was blank. The speech was long
and had not been committed to men,
DRY.
1t was impossible to get through 1t
with the aid Of the prompter, for he
was too far away to render the need
full service. a bright thought passed
through the royal brain.
Having glanced over the roll as If to
gather the gist Of the speech, he again
folded it and handed it back to the
chancellor with the command:
You read it."
The chancellor was somewhat put
out, but dutifully took the roll and
opened 1t, only to discover the royal
pleasantly, whereupOn. again rolling
the parchment up and taking from his
breast the Respondent tin order, he
laid them together at the kings feet,
with:
"Your majesty, as l cannot read the
speech, | tender my resignation" and
walked off the stage.
