Ware & Ls1a..z Market Letter.
 Liverpool failed to furnish any market news this morning beyond quotations, spot sales and a quiet tone, these, how ever showed that nothing of special in- terest had transpired. At the close, op- tions had lost one point and spots four on sales of GOO bales.
 An easier tendency developed today, opening prices at slight decline were the highest during the session. Support resulting from shorts covering in the cur rent month hs diminishing. as the interest approaches liquidation. The spot demand is no longer keen and many believe April business in that department will prove disappointing when compared with the activity experienced during the present month. Splnners have taken SO far this year s76,000 bales more than last year, and 47,000 bales more than year before last and reports generally prove that the mill business Is most excellent.

The cotton morket for the short ses- sion today was very narrow and very dull Liverpool cables showed lower range of prices than expected. The open ing there was about points lower and the close about one point lower where an unchanged market was due according to our close of yesterday The opening here was about unchanged, May selling at 7-6S, which proved to be the highest point of the day. There was considerable short selling around this price, and 1t eased off to 759, closing at 7s0. The movement con tinues to run very heavy, and weather conditions are very fine for preparations for the new crop. While the receipts may continue to run heavy, the consumption continues to increase. The Lancashire mills are believed to be sold for export up to the limit of their production for many months to come.

London. chimney sweeps.

On May 1 all the chimney sweeps in
London were for years treated to
great feast by the Montagu family Of
Portman square. The custom originat-
ed with Lady Mary Wortley Montagu
about the year 1922. This famous Eng
lish authoress had a son - Edward
Wortley Montagu-who is known In
history for eccentric life. Having been
sent to Westminster school, he ran
away three times On one of these
flights be changed clothes with little
chimney sweep and spent long time
with the sweeps as one Of their pro-
fession. His parents hunted for him
all over the country. At last his hid
ing place was discovered, and he was
restored to them. This happened on
May 1, and In commemoration Of the
happy day Lady Montagu every year
afterward until her death gave feast
to the sweeps Of London. The Monta-
gus continued this custom through all
the following generations, and now
May ! has become general holiday
for sweeps.

The date of the laying Of the founda-

There Is Jewish legend In the Tai

Of 10000 fathoms, which Is equal to
nearly twelve English miles.
The sacred historians have not In a
single instance left data upon which
we can base calculation of its exact
height and general dimensions, and 1t
is because Of this omission that the
imaginative orientals and other an
cient writers have given such fabulous
and extravagant traditions concerning
1t. Even ST. Jerome alleges from the
testimony of eyewitnesses who claim
to have seen and examined the ruins
of the skyscraping shaft that In his
day (born 345 A. d. 1t was over four
miles high. While considering these
untenable notions 1t may not be out of
place to mention that other fanclful
writers make its height range all the
way from single furlong to 5000
miles In height. See Lawson's Bible

A British nobleman who was sued
for breach of promise declared to the
contradict lady and that therefore
he would not deny that he had made
the promise, but he insisted that the
lady had exaggerated the value of his
affections and that that value was a
fair question for a jury. The lady re-
claim, and the mulcted nobleman de-
clared that the cross examination of
her by his counsel was amply worth
the money.

The symbol Of the cross was asso-
ciated with the earliest coins in Chris

Of the coins of Spain. A cross was
cut on Anglo-Saxon and Norman
money that 1t might be readily broken
into halves and quarters for giving
change, and when cut coins were .abol-
ished money continued to be marked
on one side with the cross. like our
modern form. In this way It became
common In the sixteenth century to
say. HE hasn't a Cross" as we say,
'He hasn't a penny" Shakespeare
frequently uses 1t in this sense. and

i. Life worth Lixinxf

Those people who say that life is
not worth living find it SO because
they do not go to work to make 1t
worth living. Why does sadness over
power them? Is it SO much harder for
them than for others to see sin and
suffering? What right have they to
add their weight to the worlds bur-
densf Is 1t sign of intellect to be
cowardly? And do these people not
dream that the spiritual power which
makes such an intellectual condition
impossible Is vastly superior to any
power that the intellect alone can at
tain.--Elizabeth Peabody.
