Bottles for babies date back TO re.
mote antiquity, Most people are of the
opinion that feeding bottles for babies
must be an invention OF modern times.
According to Professor Mosby, how.
ever, this is not the case. This gentle,
man, who was lecturing before an anti
quarian society, stated that 1t was the
custom among the Greeks for the
nurses TO carry sponge full OF honey
in small pot to stop children from
crying. The professor went on to say
that there are two Greek vases in the
British museum dating from 700 B. c.
which closely resemble the feeding bot
ties used subsequently by the Romans.
In the old Roman cemetery of st. Sep.
ulcher, Canterbury, a feeding bottle
of bright red polished ware was dug
up in 1861, and Professor Mosby came
TO the conclusion that this bottle must
have been buried with the little Ro.
man child to whose wants ii had min.
istered during the child's lifetime.

unmarried woman of yesterday. It is
the married women who are the most
popular with men. II is the married

The Cotton situation.

New York, Aug. 21.-Miller & Co.
in their weekly cotton review say:
The report that rain has fallen in
certain sections of Texas which had
suffered from drouth, has stimulated
trade by the belief that the cotton
prospect in Texas has materially i'm
proved. The advices from Tennessee
are also more favorable, but it would
be advisable to await more definite
reports before accepting the theory
that the changes in the weather will
cause any material change in the cot
ton crop. New cotton is beginning
to move quite freely and a large in
crease in receipts is expected before
the beginning of next month. So far
this has had no particularly weaken
ing effect upon the market.
