A Good Deed.

"A Good Deed" she said, turning to
Sue.
"Wen," said grandma, when silence
was restored, II will begin again. once
upon a time, a very long time ago.
a little brother and sister lived in a
little fishing village with their mother,
Mrs. Brown. They were very poor.
for Mrs. Browns husband had been
drowned at sea, and his ship had
never come home, so little Fred and
Mary-the names of the brother and
sister-often had to go without their
dinner.
zone day a bright thought occurred
to Fred. Why should they not go out
on the cliffs and search for birds eggs
and sell them to visitors, and even
to some of the school children? Mary
hailed the idea with fervor, so next
day saw the two children searching
carefully for seagulls' eggs in the clefts
and lodges of the cliffs.
saThey were very successful for
day or two, when a little boy friend
of Freds said:
| "Fred, if you can find me cormo-
rants egg I will give you a whole
shilling, for cormorants' eggs are so
scarce
"Fred fastened home that day and
told his sister Mary all that the boy
had said. Mary was also overjoyed,
and both agreed to look next day for
one. Next day they searched the cliffs
for a cormorant's egg, but did not get
one, Every day for whole week they
searched high and low but cormorants'
eggs as Fred's friend had said, were
very scarce.
"One day Mary happened to notice
one. but. to her great disappointment
there was only one, but still, one was
better than none at all, SO Mary
screamed to her brother.
"'Look. look, Fred! cormorant's
egg. a cormorant's. egg!
Erred looked round and noticed the
egg. and with cry of joy he sprang
to get it, but what was his annoyance
when Mary suddenly held him back.
"'Don't, Fred she gasped, don't
for it is the mothers only one. Look
how wistfully, she Is looking at me

erable. She first stood on one leg

MAN NEED NEVER GROW OLD

Debutantes Come and Go, but the Popu-
lar Beau Lasts Forever.
The popular man as the seasons re-
peat themselves is apt to feel a little
lonely. Where are they all. the old
familiar companions?" he asks himself
as he looks up and down the dinner
tables and sees every year the fresh
new faces of a new set of debutantes.

but a surplus of women Is fatal to
any entertainment. The so-called old
er girls therefore feel that it behooves
them to withdraw in favor OF the
younger sets which each year come to
the fore, demanding recognition, and
to. find their winter entertainments in
the auieter functions, consisting OF
theater parties, dinners with their own
contemporaries, the opera, etc. What
is called a fourth winter girl rarely
appears at any Of the dances or din
ners given in honor of the younger
oncs, although their man friends are
all expected to be present.
"There is no use denying the fact
that the world has much more use for
the men than for us, and that they

Uncle Sans Coffee Bill.

It is estimated that the people Of the
United States drink 1,50O.OOO,0 900 gal
Ions of coffee in the course of a year,
at a cost of about 10 cents per gallon.
The importing cost of the requisite
quantity of coffee berries for this sup
ply at cents a pound, is about $751;
100000. From this it appears that
preparation, package, distribution and
dealers profits make the prices to the
consumer about double the importing
cost.

BROKERS VIEWS ON THE
WHEAT AND CORN MARKET.
War News Was the Important Ipnu-
ence in Wheat-May Made Advance
of 2 1-2c Soon After Opening.

Meyer e. Kiser.
CHICAGO. Jan. 6.-wheat was solely a war
market to-day. Nothing else counted Routine
news and the personality OF the buyers and the
sellers were of no moment Sellers of calls
and commission house orders furnished the
urgent buying at PIC advance at the opening.
After reaction realizing the market ruled
strong. but was very nervous at about &c over
the pervious close. The anxiety. the far
Eastern situation seems TO be universal. Liver
pool, London and Paris markets all closed
higher. Wall street was weak and British
sentiment was reflected by drop of 5-l6 to 7-l6
in consos. The Southwest is without moisture
and the total primary receipts were consider
nipeg were 103 cars, against 424 a year ago.
Liverpool closed higher and Paris also higher
While the war news was influential in the
corn advance, the legitimate situation was also
a feature. The supply continues light and the
South is still an urgent buyer Of corn The
export demand undoubtedly stimulated by
the war possibilities and fair business was
done direct, and ten loads reported the sea-
board. Spot corn at Liverpool was quoted at
equivalent 10 46c track Chicago. With the
Argentine and the Danube out of the way until

PRICES OF PACKAGE
COFFEE ADVANCE 1-2 CENT
Strength OF the Market Is Due Primar-
lily tn short Crop, but Immediate
Cause Is Speculation.

Package coffees have been advanced another
1kc. This puts the city price Ariosa at Il. Toe
Lion at 12 75c Jersey at L. Toe Caracas at 12 25c
and Climax Java blend at l.. 75c.
Coffee prices generally considerably higher
than the quotations at this time last year. The
advance this week Is the third or fourth the
past six weeks. A short crop year is the
real cause for the advance, but the immediate
cause is the manipulation OF the coffee market
by crowd of Eastern spectators who have

The general wholesale grocery line continues
firm at present prices. The volume OF trade
Is not as large it before the first OF
the year Of course. but this dullness is only
temporary and jobbers generally are looking
Tor a large trade in short time.
ON COMMISSION ROW
With the milder weather business on Com
mission row is considerably more lively There
is a good. substantial city trade. and the coun-
try business Is OF a satisfactory volume. The

The only change Of Importance in the general
produce list yesterday was an advance of soc
per barrel on fancy apples TO ST. This advance
had been predicted by leading iObbers for some
time Bulk apples are about out OF the local
market now. and the fancy product is in a
position TO advance still further.
