New York, February S.-The feeling now
prevailing IN the cotton market Is well de-
veioped and the strength that IS shown at
every surn speaks decidedly well for the
future. that is II the market can only be-
con e a real one ana have spectators ana
Investors to buy ana sell and make quota
tlons In the matter Of those who are
dealing at present 10 New York It Is per
haps the smallest number that has ever
attempted to carry on cotton market In
this city. The sales are exceedingly lin
tied and those who make the attempt OF
having any participation in tho proceedings
are very few. Nevertheless the number
Of outstanding contracts has grown ana
as the dealings have been With the Idea
that the market was going 30 be stronger
there has been little ringing out OF cons
tracts, but rather the continual estap-
fishing OF new ones. In the carrying out
Of this policy there mas DE some DIG &c

IN THE NURSERY.
Some Learned Advice for the YOUNG
Mother Regarding Food for
Children

The second year of childhood,
dreaded by all mothers as the most
trying IN the baby's life, is rendered
more 50 by the difficulty Of adjusting
the diet for a proper transition from
milk to solid food. The tenement
house mother of the New York for
eign ward solves the question very
promptly and simply by setting the
yOungster at the table with the rest
and bestOwing upon him sauerkraut,
watermelon and any other deIectable
dainty that may happen along, says
the Tribune DR.. Henry Dwight
Chaplin, one of the professors at the
New York postgraduate school and
hospital, gives the following menu
for the second year:
Fruits of various kinds are early
allowable, such as apple sauce, baked
apple, stewed dried apples, stewed
prunes and orange juice The skins
Of fruits should never be given. Ali
vegetables should be cooked until as
tender as asparagus tips
Begin the year with one soft, semi
solid meal a day, TO take the place Of
one bottle. Gradually add a second
and third meal A good mixture for
the very first solid food is stale
bread crumbs or zweiback soaked IN
hot water and served In milk. a
fresh egg, boiled for two minutes and
mixed with crumbs, is good, and
cereals cooked to a jelly and served
in milk Choose the higher grades of
oats, which have less husk, and
change from one cereal TO another
for variety.
Meat broths, preferably mutton or
chicken, may begin the second year.
Between IS months and two years the
meats may begin, sparingiy and al
ways finely minced Scraped beef,
rare roast beef, brOiled steak or mutt
ton chops, roast lamb, the white
meat Of the chicken, and fresh fish,
boiled OF broiled, may be given, IN
amounts varying with the amount OF
exercise and outdoor life the child
gets. No fried food OF tea, coffee or
beer should be allowed. Any succu-
lent vegetable, very thoroughly
cooked, or any milk pudding, may be
given. At the beginning of the sec
Ond year the baby viii want one
night bottle, and a child can have a
bottle once or twice a day If he cares
for 1t until ne is three or four years
old. New articles Of food should be
introduced into the baby's diet tenta-
lively. Find out what his majesty
thrives on and let him have it. A
great variety Is not necessary.

BITS OF FEMININITY.
Some Of the New Things That VIII
He seen in the Costumes
for Winter.

Considerable vogue is predicted for
seaIsllin this winter, both for long
cOatsand blouses, says the Detroit Free
Press.
Wool Iaces are very much used on
cloth gowns, and the grape pattern IN
clusters of rings is the fayOrite-
BOas entirely Of pinked taffeta ruff
aes tumbling over each other are among
the autumn novelties
"Moleskin brown is one of the novel
shades for wool dress materials, which
tints, adviees from Paris state, may be
appropriately trimmed with the skin
of the namesake animal.
Cape collars Of every conceivable
style and depth enter into the finish Of
almost every imported gown in sight,
while the sleeves, very close at the top,
Just below tn; point Of the shoulder,
continue the line by swelling out into
varied proportions below the elbow.
The skirts of afternoon frOcks, while
not so long as those Of recent seasons,
do not clear the ground They just
touch on the front and sides, and dip
/ enough at the back to give them an out
curving effect. Evening tOilettes, din
ner gowns, tea gowns, etc, are even
longer than they were a year ago.

was the second wife Of J. P Wells and
the cause Of desertion was that she de-
manded that be put out the children Of
the first wife which Mr. Wells refused
to do. The case was that Of the step
mother.
In the case OF Exline against Winters
there was rendered a judgment for the
plaintiff for the sum of S249.63
In the case Of Hoyt Andrews against
John F. HestOn to quit. title there was
judgment for the plaintiff and title
granted.
In the case of Retta Farley, nee Retta
William, against the National Mutual
Protective association for damage by
fire there was filed a demurrer to petit
ton which was sustained, plaintiff being
granted until July 1 to amend petition.
This case was suit to force collection of
insurance on furniture and FILINGS of
the Commercial hotel which was de-
stroyed by fire on the night Of August
Il, the defendants claiming that the fire
was Of incendiary origin and was set by
the plaintiff herself. 1t is claimed that
there were suspicious circumstances
surrounding the origin of the fire sufi-
Gent to justify the withholding Of pay
ment Of the insurance. While such an
impression prevails. it is a hard matter
to prove and the company may be com
PEELED to pay the loss.

the two factors that cause silver TO

INVERTED.

Youth has its griefs, its disappOintments keen,
Its bafiied lOngings aud Its memories;
Its anguish in joy that might have been,
Its languid settling in a sinful ease.
And age has pleasures, rosy, fresh and warm
And glad beguilements ana expectaucies;
Its heart OF bOldnes for threatened storm;
Its eager launching upon suny seas.
Youth has its losses sad and desolate;
Its wreck Of precious freight where all wa
sent;
Its blight Of trust. its helpless heart Of fate.
Its dreary knowledge Of illusion spent
For life Is but day and dawn or eve,
The shadows must be lnng when suns are low
Old age may be surprised and 10th 20 leave,
And youth may weary wait and long 70 go.
