 Pursuing the policy of frankness. which endeavor to follow in reference to my operations, I desire to stase that l have to- day covered the bulk of my short interest in the market. My reason for taking this action is my fear that the forthcoming esti- mate of the Agricultural Department Will in indicate a crop of under ten mfton bales. While personally believe in much larger crop than <nis, and while all my study ot the question: supports that belief. It IS idle to ignore the fact that the size Of the cotton crop has today, become a political ana sectional issue, rather than statistical or s commercial fact and political forces are not amongst those that l care to contend

WHEN NATURE
is MILLINER.

1t is such a beautiful old world,
it's a shame not to enjoy it more.
It's an artistic old world, too, but We
who live in the towns do not stop to
realize the harmony with which ma
ture blends all her effects.
When a woman gets a new hat, or
a gown, she gives up her whole soul
to a wrestle with the problem as to
how to make the colors harmonic.
Nature takes any old colors, orange
green, pink, blue, runs them together,
and you can't pick out an inharmo-
NOUS square inch.
You can see this during these Oc-
tober days by taking a trip on the
steamer Crescent through Dunn's
Greek and gazing at the foliage of
the trees against a background of
blue sky and tinted clouds.
What would one woman think of
another whom she saw trying to
wear combination of brown, red,
purple, yellow and sky blue?
Horrible? But if you will look at
the autumn forests to day you will
see the same combinations, only
more so, and yet you hold your
breath in rapture.
Curious, isn's it?

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

The prudent man opens his eyes and
shuts his mouth.
Treat every one as though you ex-
pected him to some day be your en-
envy.
If there is a dog in the manager
throw him out He doesn't belong
there.
Are you as active in paying a bill
you owe as you are in collecting a bill
due you?
If it were not for the fact that most
people ask too much indemnify there
wouldn't be much use for courts.
You can get up a quarrel, but will
you be any better off after you have
quarreled so fiercely that peace will be
agreeable?
1t is a good plan for a woman to &C.
casionally let her husband have his
way without giving him look that
will take the pleasant taste out.-Atchi-
son Globe.

FOR YOUNG MEN.

John Henry Broadribb died last
week.
Perhaps you never heard of him.
Few persons have.
You knew him as Sir Henry r.
wing the greatest living actor.
There is comfort and hope for
struggling young men in the career
of this man who came up from a ju-
nior clerkship in a London shop to
be the foremost tragedian of the
Victorian era.
He was born John Henry Broad
RIB and poor. 1t was only after he
had made great name for himself
that Queen Victoria made him the
first actor-knight.
Here is the encouragement to
young men in the life of this illus
triOus actor and scholar whose ashes
now repose in Westminster Abbey.
When he made his first attempt to
act part IN local lyceum he funk
ed. Stage fright prevented his open
ing his mouth. He retired in dis
grace without speaking a word.
Worse still:
When he engaged to play part in
1.-THE Winters Tale" he was literal
ly Kissed off the stage.
That would have settled it with
most young men.
But this young man knew what
was in him and he was bound to give
expression. He studied constantly
and spouted in his room before
mirror. He drenched himself in
Shakespeare. And he would take
any part, however low, in the cast to
get a chance on the stage. Finally
Dion Boucicault discovered the ge-
MUS that was in him and the rest
was easy.
The story in the story-with varia-
tions-of every man who has got on
in the world.
Men make themselves great by
persistence.

DIETARY STANDARDS.
What Observation Indicates to BE the
Average Mans Daily Food Need.


Accepting the daily dietary stand
ards which are based upon observa-
tions as to what people are accustomed
to consume, it is plain that the average
man doing from light to moderate
muscular work must take each day
approximately 116 grams Of proteid
matter as grams Of nitrogen, with
sufficient fat and carbohydrate to yield
a total fuel value OF. 1880 large Gallo
ries. The usual proportion Of carbohy-
drate mostly starchy food is about
500 grams to 5000 grams of fat. In
other words, the average man needs,
according to the above hypothesis, APP
proximately 100 grams of proteid, 500
grams of carbohydrate and 90 grams
of fat for his daily ration. In order to
obtain these amounts of nutrients he
would require per day three-fourths OF
a pound of ordinary roast beef, one
pound Of boiled potato, one-half pound
Of white bread and one-fourth of a
pound of butter. Naturally much
greater variety of food might be adopt
ed with the same nutritive values as
the above, but these figures will suf-
fee to give some impression of the
quantities of ordinary cooked food
stuffs required to yield the nitrogen
and the total fuel value called for by
the above standard dietary.
A more elaborate diet, one in large
measure free from meat and having es-
sentially the same content of nitrogen
and with total fuel value of approx
mately 5000 calories, would be as fol
lows: Fried hominy, six ounces; sirup,
three ounces; baked potato, eight
ounces; butter, one and one-half
ounces; baked spaghetti, ten ounces;
mashed potato, ten ounces; boiled tur-
nip, six ounces; bread, two ounces; APP
pie sauce, eight ounces; apple tapioca
pudding, twelve ounces; fried sweet po-
tato, eight ounces; fried bacon, one
ounce; fruit jam, four ounces; coffee
one and one-half pints, and tea, three
fourths of a pint. Such a diet, owing
to its vegetable nature and lack Of con-
centration, is naturally quite volumi-
nous. \ greater concentration of diet
is easily obtained by replacement of
a portion of the vegetable matter by
meat, and this the ordinary man, with
his highly developed palate, usually
prefers to do because of the increased
flavor which his acquired taste now
calls for. Further, the resources at
the command of the civilized man rem
der possible great variety in matters
of diet, but whatever the character of
the daily food Or however great the
number and variety of the ingredients
it will be found that the nitrogen con-
tent and fuel value of the daily food of
mankind will in general correspond in
large measure TO the dietary standards
usually adopted throughout the civiliz-
ed world.-Russell II. Chittenden in
Century.

PRAISE THAT is UNKIND.

some time ago Margaret Martin,
an Illinois girl, went to Paris to
study vocal music. Admitting
friends had helped her convince her
self that she had learned all there
was to be learned of voice culture in
this country.
Perhaps you remember the story.
How she embarked all her little for
tune in the venture and finally Sc
cured a hearing before a famous
Partisan master. How he bluntly
told her that she had no voice worth
cultivating. To him it was only
an unpleasant but very common in
cident 70 the poor girl, who had
staked all her hopes and all her
means, it was the climax of a life
tragedy. With her one great hope
suddenly swept away from her she
went hopelessly insane.
1t is but one case in a thousand
If we wept for allin whom we our
selves have thoughtlessly helped to
stimulate false hopes by insincere
praise our eyes would seldom be dry.
1t is not always kind to Isl FAX
kindly True kindness often lies
in frank criticism. In speaking kind
ly too many of us flatter or Jolly, :"
imagining that to please for the mo-
ment is to render permanent service.
There is nothing better in the
world than kind word. 1t never
dies. It's good effect never ends.
Like a sunbeam it casts into the
world warmth that never again
goes out of it But the really kind
word often seems very unkiud. In
real kindness there is discrimina-
ton. The man or woman whose
Judgment, in praise or blame. is
worth anything weighs it carefully
and speaks it conservatively.
There is just one type as senseless
and contemplate as the chronic
''knoeker,n and that is the chronic
'jollier," who is ever effervescing
with admiration ne does not feel.
Sincerity, truth, genuine sympathy
and real helpfulness lie in the gol-
den mean.
