30 She stood before this last %store--it
was a Jewelry store-and, oh, how
beautiful the jewels looked-sapphires
ana rub'es and d.amonds-how they
entered. The sight was enough to
iascinate older eyes than Annie's.
PRESENTLY something in one corner
Oh the window caught her gaze-it
wasn't a jewel, It was a switch of love-
~ hair; not one, but several, and be-
low them in pretty, shallow, satin
hned boxes, were clusters of curls. A
sudden thought came to Annie; she
pressed her little hands together and
nerd her breath, then paused a mo-
ment to gain courage, and passed reso-
lutely into the great store. A kind
looking man came forward to meet her
and said: what can I do for you, lit
tie lady?"
DO you buy hair?" she asked.
sometimes, little one; why do you
ask?"
"Will you buy mine? See, I have
plenty!" she answered, taking off hel
hat and shaking her curls down ovel
her shoulders, and looking up will
anxious eyes.
But, my little girl, are your curl
yours to sell?"
"Oh, yes, sir; ii you only knew VIII.
| must sell them, I am sure you woul'
buy them. Teddy is so i'll hat he need
things, and mother" and here sh
choked up 81 she could say no more.

New York, December 14-Advices from Liverpool early In the day covered only up to the close yesterday, when prices were up a shade. So long as we keep without regular Liverpool cables we m ust continue dull. Bulls fear to buy and bears hesitate to sell without co-opera- ton with Liverpool. Bullish sentiment continues unabated, but without result on the market. Some hesitation is shown because of the fact that the coming weeks movement will compare with very small figures of last year, when the in- sight was only 3S7,000, on the other hand. bulls of the rampant kind prefer to com pare with the same week in 1898, which was AGO, 900. As we neared our opening Liverpool reported to decline, and New York responded with to decline, most of which was quickly recovered and the total sales were small.
 Receipts at all ports were 4s.o0o, against 5000 last year. The Chronicle weather report of the week says that the weather has been fairly favorable, rain has been quite general except in portions of the Southwest and Mississippi, where the rainfall has been light
 Reports from many points denote that picking is finished or about completed, and marketing is said to be fairly liberal The total visible supply is now 3S20, ,000, against 3,794,OO0 last year. including B. 33S 900 Am erican, against 3,223,000 last year. The Chronicle figure for the in- sight to date is 5,576,000 against 5724,- 900 last year. What the movement will be from now on is the great question.
