Squaws Love Deeply.
York Post

4 story of Indian love and death is
told of Coffin Point the gruesome ap-
pellation by which a little neck of land
at the very head of the CohGnsey Riv-
er is known.
Tradition has it that an Indian chief
found his last resting place there, the
box, or coffin, being placed in the
limbs of a tree. Here, the story goes,
a Young sQuaw, beautiful and popular
among her race, would come day af-
ter day and night after night and main
tain her sorrowful, weary vigil AT
length. worn out by grief and harrassed
by the opportunities of a young brave
of her tribe, who was her devoted ad-
mirer, but whose arGor met with no
response in her own heart she deter
mined to end her wretched existence
and join the great chief whom she loved
in the happy hunting ground.
Stealing to her retreat at break of
day. when the braves, squaws and pap
pooses We're all wrapped in slumber
and in their blankets, she cast one de-
spairing look at the coffin 'above her,
plunged dagger into her heart and
fell and expired directly beneath the
silent form overhead, where she was
afterward found by the young lover
whom she had rejected and who had
come to seek her.-Philadelphia Press.

Communion Wine.

1t has always been our opinion that
we should not use fermented wine for
communion purposes if the pure juice
Of the grape could be procured. We
should use such rs has no alcohol in it.
Recently in this state-Cleburne
county, company has been organ
lied known as the Fruithurst Grape
Juice company. This company
presses the grape, gets the pure juice,
and Immediately bottles it, making
the bottles air tight, and so long as
the bottle is kept tightly stopped the
contents will keep pure and sweet.
We take pleasure in calling the at
tention OF our preachers and deacons
to this grape juice that they may Sc
cure it for communion purposes. Let
us not put any strong drink to the
mouth of our brother, for we know
not to what it may lead. Let us not
tempt him by using fermented wine.
| This grape juice can be purchased
from the above named company. Let
US suggest that you write a postal
card to E. B. Hammitt, manager,
Frui.hurst, Cleburne county, Ala, for
prices and circular. II you do this
we feel sure that your church will use
the juice instead of the saloon wine,
which intoxicates. Alabama Baptist.

COTTON.
New York. July 20.--Interest in the cot
ton market showed abatement today and
a large portion of the business done rep
resented Withdrawals by operators from
each side. The course of pendulations
was too erratic to afford bulls or bears
marked advantage and increased the
timidity in outside speculative circles
caused by the sensational political news
from China. The opening was easy with
first sales showing drop OF from SIX
to eleven points. The weakness did not
eliminate until August had fallen to 9.O7
and January $40. The South, the West,
the foreign element and the room trad
ers all sold freely on the slump, traders
giving special attention to the August
option The cables received just after
our opening conveyed the impression that
longs in Europe were distrustful and in
clined to unload as a matter of pre-
caution. But with startling rapidity SEN
timent in the Liverpool market swung
completely around near the close and
badly frightened shorts here.
Prices advanced with a rush, August
climbing to 1927 and January to SIG be-
fore a breathing spell was taken Be-
fore midday a partial relapse set in.
Rumors gained circulation to the effect
that influential European bulls had formed
a strong clique to bulge the summer
months. This story lacked confirmation.
but kept shorts on the uneasy seat the
greater part of the session. Market closed
quiet and steady with prices net un-
changed to eight points lower.

1t was upon this stage of the specula-
ton that there came the sudden and
unexpected news that United States Min
lister Conger had been heard from by the
State Department The bears hastily COW
cred their short contracts when this be-
came known. But the publication of the
text of the message which quickly fol-
lowed, caused a chill to speculative senti-
ment as it did to warmer sentiments of
humanity throughout the world. The
market did not relapse to the low level
again and was held by the notable buoy
ancy in different portions of the Indus
trial list. American Sugar was the CEN
trail feature of the market all day, the
dealings in the stock far outnumbering
those in any other on the list. The
ground for the advance was the very
large business reported in the Sugar in
dustry. Other points of strength were
the Tobacco stocks, on talk Of a good
forthcoming statement, the New YORK
public utilities on the hope of defeating
assessments under the new franchise tax
law, the Leather stocks, the RUBBER
stocks and Peoples Gas. The Steel stocks
were generally strong at advances OF from
| to 23k the argument, being that the
troubles in China would increase require
ments for that product. There was late
advance in Lackawanna of 31a and in New
Jersey Central of IL. With these eXcep-
tions the railroad list shows no striking
net gains The whole market turned
downwards in the late dealings when
profit taking became evident in Sugar.
That stock lost about two points and
reactions in some other stocks extended
from / to points. The closing was
thereby made heavy and the net changes
were reduced to fractions except in few
of the Specialties mentiond.
The foreign exchange market was
strong and moved up Ac but the foreign
exchange houses report that Paris is still
the point of greatest attraction for gold
and that the next shipments will prob
ably be made there instead of to London.

tomorrow.

is IT RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent Med
icines?

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, N. T.
1t may be question whether the editor
OF a newspaper has the right to publicly
recommend any of the various proprietary
medicines which flood the market, yet
as preventive of suffering we feel II
a duty to say good word for Chamber
lain's Collie. Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy. We have known and used this medl-
mine in our family for twenty years and
have always found it reliable. In many
cases a dose OF this remedy would save
hours of suffering while physician is
awaited We do not believe in depending
implicitly on any medicine for cure, but
we do believe that if bottle of Cham
berlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept
on hand and administered at the incep
tion of an attack much suffering might
be avoided and in very many cases the
presence of physician would not be re-
quired. At least this has been our exper
fence during the past twenty years For
