FINAL TONE STEADY
(By the Associated Press

New York, August Sarge num-
Der of Western and a considerable
number of Southern merchants visited
the dry goods market today. On all
sides surprise was expressed at the
scarcity of cotton goods and the very
high rates demanded by sellers. Few
manufacturers are able to contract for
early delivery and those houses who
have stocks on hand are doin~ profit
able business. China has taken no
goods for a week, but this is not at
tributed by business men to the boy
colt but to natural conditions.
New York Cotton.
New York, August S.-The cotton
market was rather more active after
a quiet forenoon and prices in the
late session ruled steadier on covering
and a little bull support inspired by
an unfavorable Interpretation of the
weekly bureau report, and the close
was at a net advance of to 10
points.
The opening was steady at an adj
vance of to 6 points in response to
higher cables. but showers were re-
ported in sections of the belt that have
been complaining of lack of moisture,
and during the morning prices sold
off to a net decline of about to 4
points. Later prices ruled about
steady within couple or points OF
last nights level. with trading around
midday very quiet until the weekly
crop report was issued, after which
demand increased and in spite of con-
tinued pressure on the part OF local
bears prices worked higher toward
the close. The final tone was steady
at the advance.
Sales were estimated 1T 100000
bales. Houses with Southern connec-
tons had supporting orders after mid
day. following private reports that
planters were organizing to prevent
a decline Private cables from Liver
pool were bearish and stated that
strike now seemed more probable.
Receipts at the ports today 1883
bales, against 12,476 last week and
400 last year. Estimated for the week
5000 bales. against 1880 last week
and SIT last year. Today's receipts
at New Orleans 4.217 bales. against
none last year and at Houston 4,35s

Especial to News and ObserVer)
New York, Aug. 81 notice in the
New York Sun of this morning a dis
patch dated sherman Tex, in which
Col. b. e. Smith, President of the
Southern Cotton Association, is report
ed to have received a telegram from
his New Orleans representatives stat
ing in substance that "Theo H. Price
had wired parties in New Orleans to
the effect that he had Wall Street
solid at his back in a determined eff
fort to force cotton to nine cents and
lower this week" The dispatch, it is
said, was concluded by the statement
that "the Southern Cotton Association
must be crushed now Permit me to
say that | have sent no such dispatch,
nor have | in any way so expressed
myself On the contrary | believe that

Col Smith represented can be made

planters in the handling of their crop.
Further, / am not engaged in any eff

of euuipoise and the stability that
ought to be equally satisfactory TO
both producer and consumer if main

HOLLOW CHEEKS.

what to Do 10 Make Them become
Full and Plump.
Hollow cheeks are something no wo-
man wants, and it is not hard to rem
edy them. To impart firmness facial
gymnastics and massage, accompanied
by good prepared skin food or cocoa
butter, will prove beneficial. The skin
food is to be applied just before retir
ing and the exercise to be induged in
both night and morning for about ten
minutes. To exercise the muscles first
compress the lips, fill the cheeks with
air and work the jaws in chewing
movement, putting the cheeks outward
as much as possible and keeping the
mouth closed.
Before applying the skin food pre-
pare the face to receive it by a thor
ough washing in warm soapy water,
followed by cold rinse Dry and with
the tips Of the fingers stroke the mus
cles of the cheeks upward and back
ward with gentle pressure after plac-
ing the thumbs at the base of the ears.
Anolnt the hollows with the cocoa but
ter and execute rotary movement,
beginning by placing the finger tips at
the corner of the mouth and following
the jawbone to the temple.
Start again at the corner of the
mouth and work upward through the
middle of the cheek to the outer corner
of the eye. Repeat each movement ten
times keeping the pressure firm but
gentle,

The only way in which a fowl is
usually made tender enough to eat is
to cut it up and cook as fricassee, roast
chicken being considered possible only
when one wishes to pay the extra price
for young birds. 1t must, however, be
the toughest of hens or roOsters which
does not succumb to the pot roasting
process if carefully done, Prepare as
for roasting and place in a pot deep
enough to hold the fowl without crowd

pounds of chicken. Cut up an onion
and let it cook till brown, when add

WANTS A GOOD
ROAD SOCIETY

A. |. Mason, who lives in that enter
prising road district, Pine Grove, which
has the enviable reputation of voting
the only special road tax in the whole
state--not once, but twice-is anxious
TO see the organization of a good roads
association in Hood River valley.
There is an excellent chance of the
the good roads bill passing congress this
session, which would mean an appro-
priation of $40, 900 for good roads in Or
egon. II Hood River expects to get her
share OF this fund she must be organ
lied. The money cannot gd TO districts
that have no organizations, says Mr..
Mason.
"Furthermore, there will be an effort
at this coming session of the Oregon
legislature to pass bill for road ex-
tending all the way from Portland to
San Francisco. The people of Caliior-
MIA are willing to meet us at the state
line. II the Oregon legislature appro-
PIRATES any money for this undertaking
we shall have to pay our share of the
taxes, and why not have an organiza-
ton here SO We may get the benefit OF
good roads legislation in the future"
MIR. Mason is very enthusiastic over
the subject of good roads. He is anx-
ious that there be a mass meeting in the
city in the near future to perfect the or
ganization of good roads association.
Mr.. Mason is a strong advocate of the
convention of road supervisors. He be-
lieves such meetings would be very BEN
eficial to those who have charge OF the
road work in the various districts of the
county and state.
"Why not have the road builders get
together and talk over the best and lat,
est methods of construction, like the
school teachers talk over the latest and
best methods of instruction, or the
meetings OF the newspaper edltors2
There are 30 road districts in Wasco
county, and if the road supervisors
got together there would be quite
convention"
