COTTON CONDITIONS

Charles K. oliver Gives His Views After Several Months Absence in Europe Studying I'm.

Baltimore, Md. June 16.-(SpeciaL)-- Charles K. Oliver of the United States Cotton Duck CorporatIi.on and Rio the So,, Mt. pany, after several months absence in Europe studying cotton conditions, gives to this weeks issue of The Manu- look in this country and abroad. Mir Oliver says that as a result of his observations he looks for an enormous development of the cotton goods busi. ness in this country within the next few years, and adds:
 Manufacturers here possess many advantages over their foreign compe- titors, including the raw material right at hand and the ability to obtain more accurate information concerning cotton crops. ...,,.. r,r,.nd ,ovna thirty-four new mills, with, about 5000 900 spindles, in course of building. They are principally yarn mills; some few are weaving mills, but not many. good deal of new capital Is going Into them, and those who are responsible an dmateriaH men, and Target overpro- duction is expected. It is the policy of the wise ones over there not to buy yarns ahsSs tSs as 6rssnSe Ss ssy not buying beyond what they consider good judgment. but they are selling all the goods they can. Some are sold ahead for nine months, and some for

 Business is transacted rapidly. On the Manchester Cotton Exchange I saw 5000 men trading at one time, but they all got through in thirty minutes. and the results of the trading were im- mediately telegraphed all over the world. The maximum number trading on the Exchange has been 5000, the people being so close together that you could have walked on their heads.".

 Then you seemed to stand beside me. How we'll I remember iti Twas one of those clear nights when the mooA, IS at It's full, the whole scene was one of those clear nights when the moon IS at It's full. the whole scene was one tent door and could hear the roar of the cascade in the distance: you seemed to stand beside me and your dear hand was on my arm, while your voice as clear and sweet and musical as the notes of the mocking bird. fell on my ear. Don't do that. Bertie! Don't do that or you will break my heart, for father will say, I told you so. see all the misery I've saved you from" It might have been a dream, Susie, but 1t saved me and I've lived a clean and honest life"
 I'm sure of that. Bertie."
 Well. Susie. sometime after you were married went partners with man out there. and we had great luck; he had his wife with him, delicate, refinied. little creature. pretty well gone in decline. He brought her up there because he thought the mount an air would do her good. then too, he loved her so he could not bear to be the one shanty, and how his wife de- lighted to keep 1t clean and serve up tempting meals. One day there was an explosion, and Davids. my partner was badly injured; he knew he was not long for this world. and. Susie, what do you think! He wanted me to promise to marry his wife as soon as he was dead"
 What strange notion, Albert! Why did her'
 Well. he could see that the wild mountain life was doing her good; he feared that there was no way for her to remain there unless 1t was as my wife; then. too. he knew she could never think and act for herself, as she had always leaned on him. At first I refused, but he pleaded so. saying he could not die contented with her fu- ture unprovided for. The parson came in when he was pleading with me, and well, Susie, his wife and I joined hands, and as soon as the doctor pro- nounced Davids dead, the parson made us man and wife. Did do wrong?"
 No ,Bertie; Pm glad you did it.
 Well, she died about the same time your husband died. would not come home until your father died. for fear, Susie. that there might be murder. Now I'm here. what are you going to do with me7"
 "Bertie. I'm forty now"
 Your hair is just as brown as 1t was then, your eyes just as blue and my love just as strong. Is that the beech tree on whose smooth trunk I cut out names the day we plighted our troth?"
 The very same: the names can be read if we go closer"
 They walked over to the tree and stood beneath it's branches. calling to mind the day. so many years ago, when they had plighted their troth in the springtime of life and there with the spring sunshine falling through the half-opened leaves, with the birds and squirrels as witnesses. they re- newed their youthful vows.

Hold Fast to Romance and sentlsns

Hold Fast to Romance and Semtfmemf. Life without sentiment is as insipid as savory without salt. yet when peo- pie, marry they usually settled down F which means they endeavor to look at everything from the common sense point of View and foreswear all the delightful nonsense which they indulBed in when they were sweethearts.
 Is 1t that rent, butcher, baker ana candlestick maker usurp the place giv-a ensto romance, or is 1t that people grow staider as they grow older?
 Is 1t possible that the wife cares less for love than the sweetheart used 10 do? Not in her heart of hearts: but. once surrounded by it. she grows un- conscious of 1t and imagines fit no lon- ger a6f supreme importance, even mak- ing the hideous mistake of fancyfn@ it can be done without. Familiarity breeds contempt. and so she lightly prizes love to her own undoing.
 Stick fast to the high ideals of court Ing days. Don't let yourself be per- suaded they are foolish or old fashions ed. Don't whom love becomes daily certainty fancy sentiment can be dis-l pensed with. or you will wake I'D with start one of these fine days aRd find to your cost that the future which promised to be so fair is stretching blank and desolate before you and that your husband or your wife. as the case may be. bears no resemblance to the sweetheart of years gone by.
