 Thank you---dont bother" he pro- | tested falntly 'Oh. 1t is no bother. I know what headache is. Have you seen today's paper7 The description of Maria's dress is enough to make her tear her hair"

 TT you will slice the ham while I stir up the eggs" It was a square meal before they got done with 1t. and the strong coffee cleared Ailan's head like magic. when 1t was all over and he was leaning against the mantle with his cigar. AL Ian looked down on Myrtle in chasten spirit. It was a fine face that he looked at: full of womanly gentle ness and intelligence. Mobile, with tender lips and steady eyes. Tn its repose there was @ suggestion of wist- fitness. The fact of a woman who has long known self-control.

inc south to come into sight for the ha,anre of the season. More cotton came into sight last March than there ia now left in the hands of the spot holders on plantations and at interior uncounted towns The spot holders will continue firm and remain un- shaken while the exporters who are fcreed to the ports to beg. borrow or buy supplies for immediate require- ments. The worst of the depression is already over
 The combination of spinners. specua- tors and buyers have played their last cards. and the holders, by remaining steadfast In the possession of their sta- pie. will soon be able to dictate prices and force the market to i5 cents. Cot ton goods are weekly advancing in price, and the demand cannot be filled, many mills having already taken or der5 as far ahead as December and into next year. Mill sales are based on the future price of spot cotton as spin ners realize prices will advance in the near future. Remember that last March with cotton at cents, in the fase of 14. .000, GOO bale crop. those who held received 10 1-2 cents early in July. Do not get discouraged
 Mill men say raw cotton is worth Is cents~and that they are prepared to pay 1t if they cannot get 1t for less. If the staple is worth it, every interest In the South should assist the holders to get 1t. Let there be no break in the ranks. The supplies from the interior of the Southwest are practically ex- hausted. and all buyers must soon turn their attention to the holdings In the old States. Do not get panic stricken. but have only one price in view for the balance of this crop, namely. FIFs TEEN CENTS.
 Plant less cotton and increase the food supply crops. Curtail the produc- ton of cotton. so that what is grown will be absolutely required by the con- su,ning world and will. therefore, com mand profitable prices The slogan for the next two months throughout the entire cotton belt must be DIVERSE FICATT0N, less cotton. more food sup plies, and an absolute refusal on the part of spot holders to market their middling cotton for less than 15 cents. Show the world normal acreage and a fixed determination to demand Is cents for the balance of this crop.

Atlanta, Ga, March 2.-(speoial .)- The following has been made public:
 Notvithstanding the recent heavy and unauthorized depression in the iority of spot holders have stood firm speculative influences, the great ma pority of spot holders have stood firm and refused to be panic stricken over the extreme tactics pursued by the large cotton buyers and exporters to shake out cotton from the interior Of the old States. We are now facing comparisons with enormous receipts one year ago. Last March there came into sight 1,200OOO bales and in April s66,000 bales, or during those two months as much cotton as there is in
