Truth.

Many men sre false who never tell hes
in the ordinary acceptation OF that term.
Their whole Life may be lie, they may
never breathe anything but falsehood, and
yet they could defy the judges of the land
to convict them upon the charge OF eyer we
having told lie Truth is a matter OF the
inward parts; truth relates to spirit, pur,,
pose, what We would do if we could; and
no man knows what he would do II ne
could. We are the victims of our own tg-
norance: we cannot measure ourselves. A
man shall say, II know should never DO
that" he may be talking the language OF
a fool; the adequate temptation has never
assaitd him, he has never been locEed
within the environment which means fa11'
ing in that particular direction. Truthful
ness Is matter Of tone as well as a matter
of words; vocal color may tell lie without
the words themselves being false. What 1s
truth! That is the old and ever-present
and deeply penetrating question: Men
laugh hes, shrug lies, attitudinize lies, spg-
cest iea. A man may tell lies to himself.

souTH's GREAT STAPLE.
Averages Sum Of One Million Dollars
Per Dav the Year Round.

Averages Sum Of One Million Dollars
Per Day the Year Round.
Two millions Of dollars a day Is a
snug sum for the total receipts from
the sale Of single agricultural pro-
duct in a single country, even such
country as the United States, says
the Atlanta Constitutions Washington
correspondent. This is the figure
shown by the department Of commerce
and labor, through its bureau of sta
tistics, as the value of cotton exported
from the United States in the month
of October, 1903.
The preliminary statement of the
bureau for the month of October shows
the value Of cotton exported in the
month OF October to be s60,2S3,4 ALP,
against s42,OO0,oO0 in October, 1902;
$46,O00,000 in October, 1901. and $780,
474,437 in October, 1900. The total
quantity exported in October, 1903, as
shown by this preliminary statement,
was 594,540,S72 pounds, being an aver
age price Of 10.1 cents per pound.
This figure of ss0,0o0,oo0 receipts
for cotton in a single month Is not
equaled in the history Of cotton exports
except in the month Of October, 1900,
when the total value Of cotton export
ed was $60,474,437 Even the figures
Of $e0,283,412 for the month Of Octo-
Der, 1903, are subject to a slight pros
pectiye Increase, as this preliminary
statement Of the bureau Of statistics
does not include the figures Of certain
distant ports, through which small
quantities are exported.
It should not be understood from the
above statement that the value Of cot
ton exports of the United States aver
ages 100000 per day the year round,
although they have averaged 81, ,0o0, 900
per day during the month of October.
Taking the entire year, it may be said,
however, that the value Of cotton ex-
ports now averages $1,000,00o per day
for each business day Of the year. e.

Facts and Figures.

In Denmark a girl of II and boy
Of IA can marry. In most places the
limit for age is 1S for men and 16 for
women. In Germany a man can only
contract marriage before his twenty
first year when he is specially declared
of age, and this can only be doae
when he has completed his eighteenth
year. The law of France is specially
notable for stipulating about the legal
rights of each party, and the relations
Of each to the earnings OF the other.
The man who mar-ies French woman
becomes by French law liable to be
called on for the support OF his wife's
near relatives if they are In need.

ALCOJE or IRISH LITERATI RE
Proposed for Public Library-Four Irish
Plays This Week.

The Irish Literary Society, recently or
ganized to promote interest in old Irish
literature, was addressed last night in
Carnegie Lyceum by Charles Johnson a
Trinity college man and author OF history
of Ireland. He lectured on THE Irish
Literary Revival" Among other things
he said that there was in old Irish writings
and traditions material for an even greater
stimulus to world literature than WAS re-
ceived from Homer's epics and that when
the old Celtic literature was thoroughly
understood he expected TO see it do much
toward conquering the materialism of the
day and uplifting spiritual ideals in litera-
ture.
The Hon. Morgan J. O'Brien presided
He is one of the trustees of the New York
Public Library, and he appealed for liberal
gift to establish III that institution an alcove
OF Irish literature Donations have been
made, he said. by Hebrews, Germans and
others for similar purposes.
On June 3 and the society will present
three of Yeatss Irish plays at the Carnegie
I.yreum--T Land of Hearts Desire,
* Pot OF Broth and Cat hleen-ni- Hooli-

of Mr.. johnson. The casts will be made
