Why the Golfer Married.

Miss Charlotte Dodd, the champion
woman golfer of England, was talking at
the Philadelphia Country club about golf
in Scotland.
Golf in Scotland is almost a disease, y
she SAID. I heard not long ago of an
elderly bachelor i'll Edinburgh who had
played golf from his boyhood up. He
had never courted a girl because, he said,
golf hadn't allowed him the time.
Hence, everybody was surprised one
day to hear that the crusty old gentleman
was to be married. A caddie-the cad
dies are men in Scotland-went to him,
wrung him by the hand and said senti-
mentally:
Man. I'm glad yer goin' to wed. 1
think We must love her dearly. [ know
your life will be all bliss and sweetness
now, and I envy We the golden days O
romance in store
Pooh, pooh, Robert said the other.
It's nothing of that sort. Macmann, the
champion, took a wife last year and it
improved his game l am just taking one
in the hope that it will improve mine "

BOOKLET MAKES A SENSATION.
w. G. Vanderbilt Tells How He Made a
Million by Investing a Thousand.

novel booklet is creating a sensa-
ton in financial circles in New York city

N-RAYS SHOULD BE PINK.
They Indicate a Good Life, Says Dr.
Hooker

The Lancet publishes a letter from DR..
Hooker on the results of three years ex-
periments with the Blondlotz Mays
emitted by the human body. Dr. Hooker
says he has established the fact that
these rays differ in color according to the
character and temperament of a person,
and also that the rays are not merely
heat vibrations, as he proved by passing
rays from his own hand through the fore
arm Of a corpse to prepared screen
which Immediately showed increased lu-
minosity. In reference to the differing
colors of the rays DR.. Hooker says:
rays emanating from a very passion
ate man have deep red hue. One whose
keynote in life is to be good and to do
good, throws off pink rays; an ambitious
man emits orange rays; deep thinker
throws off deep blue; lover Of art and
refined surroundings, yellow; an anxious,
depressed person, gray; one who leads a
low. debased life, muddy brown rays; a
devotional good meaning person, light
blue: progressive minded, light green. and
physically or mentally i'll person, dark
green rays.
DR.. Hooker admits that his statement
may be received at first with a smile of
incredulity, but he is confident it will
sooner or later be accented as a fact He
further says he has proved that N-rays
arr not only given off by the human body,
but by objects which have been in con-
tact herewith He obtained this impress
sion from a letter thirty years old, which
proved that the rays are radioactive and
retain their power on the paper on which
writing is made.-London Gable TO the

CoCOANUT BUTTER.
A Table Compound to Be Made of This
Vegetable Oil.

a new butter is now being made from
the milk of the cocoanut This milk,
when subjected to a temperature of over
Is c., runs into a yellow oil, which is
imported in great quantities from India
and Africa. The better qualities of it
are obtained from Ceylon, Cochin-China
and Australia. The nut produces so per
cent. Of oil, and one acre OF land planted
400 pounds of oil. This has hitherto been
oil and the better qualities employed in
the manufacture of textile goods.
In France this oil is now subjected to
a special treatment and converted into
butter
DR. Heuner a German chemist, pro-
poses to buy up all the cocoanut oils and
transform them into what he terms
vegetable butter
The cocoanut butter, like that made
from cows milk, contains per cent. Of
soluble acids. 1t will keep from fifteen
of acid reaction, and it contains from
twenty-five to thirty times less water
than ordinary butter, while its slowness
in oxidizing makes it specially suitable
for pastry and cakes, as they will not
get stale so quickly when made with it
as with other butter.
Another advantage claimed for cocoa
nut butter is that it seems to be an anti
septic medium, while milk is most favor
able to the culture Of microbes.
At the Central hospital of Vienna and
in various hospitals in Switzerland ex-
periments have been made with this new
butter and the results have been pro

THE OLD YEAR.

What is the old year IT'S book
On which we backward sadly look,
Not willing quite to see it close,
For leaves of violet and rose
Within its heart are thickly strewn
Marking Loves dawn and golden noon;
And turn down pages, noting days
Dimly recalled through Memory's haze;
And tear-stained pages, too, that tell
Of starless nights, and mournful knell
OF bells tolling through troubles air
The De ProfundiS of despair
The laugh, the tear, the shine, the shade,
All twiXt the covers gently laid
No uncut leaves, no page unScanned:
Close it and lay it in Gods hand.

THE MAIN STREET GROCERS.
Tuesday, March l, 1904.

The following cotton letter was
received through The Columbus
Commission Company yesterday;
There was a steady opening to
the cotton future market today.
Although the first level of prices
was 6 to ) points lower there was
heavy selling. and the fact that
the market did not show greater
weakness encouraged supporting
orders.
The estimate ia receipts at va
rious points for the morrow were
quite substantial. while the
ports for the day fxured more
extensively than looked for;
there was not much show of bull
support early and naturally
some interests were inclined to
take the short side for turn.
However on the dips there was
good buying of a quiet character
and shorts eventually worked to
get under cover. In some in
stances they found offerings quite
small to their surprise. 1t was
evident that some of the bull
leaders were satisfied to work for
an advancing tendency though,
at the same time, some interest
were disposed to work for a level
of prices to attract fresh buying
on the better levels throughout
the day. There was a moderate
run of realizing; bull leaders, at
times, were quite aggressive and
under the circumstances some
Of the shorts were not inclined
to be too bold However, as the
day wore on there was quite a
good deal OF scalping, and the
general movement of the market
was disappointing to many.
Interior spot markets were
quiet and without feature, with |
only moderate demands. On the
close there was more or less
mixture of opinions.
