While herculanean efforts, backed by the support of the European gov elnments, have been made to foster the increase of cotton cultivation in every available nook and corner of the world, success in that line has been woefully small. The Egyptian crcp for the present season promises 1.25O,0O0 bales of our weight, which is less than the yield as far back as 1S97-1S9S, while East India produces now barely 500.000 bales more than ten years ago. During the same ten years, consumption of the world has increased over 100000 bales, and the only available source of increased supply continues to be the southern part of the United States of America

QUARANTINE DISCUSSION.

The quarantine bill adopted by the conference of southern senators and representatives is not altogether satis- factory to New Orleans, which has in sisted upon federal control of all quar- antlne, interstate and intrustate, too, notwithstanding MT. Williams de slares that the measure voices the sentiment of the Chattanooga conven- tion.
 ln relation thereto, the Vicksburg American has an interesting explana- tion of MT. Will ans own interpre- 5ation of his amendments and their effect. The American says:
 In privately commenting on the quarantine bill, synopsis of which has already been printed in the American, Congressman Williams is reported to have said:
 "That part of the bill preceding my amendment which is principally use full Is that which makes mandatory the selction and acquisition of quar- antine stations, and makes provision aor harbors of refuge for ships found already infected; so that ships so in- lected may be sent from quarantine stations to those harbors of refuge which are distant from all land and supplied with abundant hospital re- 0urces to treat the disease and eradi- cate the cause: in other words. kill all mosquitoes which may be alive"
 The amendment, in the opinion or MT. Williams, carries out all the de- E-ands of the Chattanooga convention. It is that part of the bill which pro- vsdes that the sum of $500.000 shall be appropriated for the general pur- pose of preventing the importation of yellow fever into the United States, ard for the purpose, Gin cooperation with the state health authorities, of e1adicating it should it be imported, ef preventing it's spread to another state. and of destroying its cause, wherever it may be found.
 IT. is understood that the bill is not altogether satisfactory to those sec flons most directly exposed. the claim tejne advanced that it is not sutti- cIently comrrehensive. and makes no provision for prevention of condl-

tions resulting from a fever invasion, and which are vividly remembered as destructive of all order and busi- ness interests. The objection is not tcnable. it being evident that meas ure of a drastic character would nave failed and that MT. Williams, in hls amendment has accomplished as much as could have been hoped for at the present time. consldera- tion of the conditions and regulations of interstate quarantines, and remedy for the evils of the injurious and use less shotgun system may, and doubt less will come later. It is earnestly to be hoped that an object lesson as 10 the r injustice, futility and harmful effects may never again be presented, ut sucth an experience is by no means beyond the range of probabii- itv. Tn the light of recent scientific discoveries there is no excuse for the senseless and ruinous panics which have accompanied the appearance or his disease in the past The shotgun quarantine is utterly condemned by d, men of intelligence. Congressman Williams, in discussing the subject, uses the following sensible and time lv words:
 eff the people spend as much me and money in killing the mosquitoes, in screening and general sanitation as they do in maintaining senseless and absolutely futile shotgun patrols. they VII eradicate the cause of fever and bestow a blessing upon them selves and their fellow men, and, in the mosquito counties not only safe guard their lives but make life bear able.

A woman once wrote us that she was not going to buy Scott's Emulsion any more because 1t cost too much. Said she could get some other emulsion for less money. Penny wise and pound foolish. Scott's Emul- sion costs more because 1t Is worth more-costs more to make. We could make Scott's Emulsion cost less by asing less oil. Could take less care in making it, too. If we did, however, Scott's Emulsion wouldn't be the standard preparation of cod liver oil as it is to-day.

PARIS STYLEMAKERS DECREE PLAIN, SOFT
 WEAVES OF SILK

Though it s early for Paris to be very definite on the subject of styles, she has indicated most definitely one CT two very important things. One of these is that she is going to use pliant. soft weaves of silk, exquisitely fife veilines. silk and wool as light as air illuminated by a warp of color. Ierhaps or covered with small flower designs that could never have come back as "Dresden." but are welcome as spring in the new French weayes.
 With everything there will be an abundance of lace-Alencon real "baby" Cluny, Mechlin and Irish cro- chet in new styles. And where the faces leave off embroideries begin embroideries that actually val real laees in their claim on your attention, Eecause of their exquisite beauty.
 If you stick to the princess idea of dress, you can scarcely go wrong-if there is any confidence to be placed iE signs-for Paris is doing every thing she can to reduce hips and in- vent underclothes that will make prin- cess fashions possible.
 There are underclothes-thre pieces in one, drawers. skirt and cor set cover-to reduce the size of the hips, the most antagonistic of all characteristics to the princess styles. hips and about the wasit, above are much used. when the dress is of chif- fon meteor, surah satins. or of any of those exquisite silks that come un der the name of clair de lune.
 For walking suits broadcloth is still first, Paris having taken it into her head that broa6cloth can be made as satisfactorily for summer as winter And so chiffon broadcloth is more oh ffony than ever. When the colo is dark the style is fairly plain; wher white or delicate the style is elabo rate, and sometimes the skirt is { trife longer in the more fancy styles
 Those heavy homespun-lookin! silks that were worn a little last sum mer have been made up for women t take to Florida or Egypt; and this js hint that they will not be who'll "cutre" this summer.
 And just a word of styles that vii prevail, no matter whether tn princess or empire:
 Sleeves will be shert. They VIII b. made in thousand ways-cf lac frills aid rufflees; with cuffs and with output whatever else they are the, will be short.
 In embroidered dresses the waist and embroidery will be lifted to tn throat to form yoke and collar be ing one, without a divid ng line: an in some cases, where hand made lac or embroidery forms the yoke, the co lar will sometimes be entirely omitte
 or merely hinted at. This style, how ever requires a peculiarly fresh ski
 end pretty throat, SO that it may b confined to quite young women an girls.
 It is quite likely that this summe will see the more delicate colors rt vived, SO that white wH have to yiel ] a little to it's supremacy. Indeed, rasl lerry seems to threaten an immens
 vogue-probably following in th c.steps Of red. which stormed an won tte whole of America to 1t standard only two short winters ag Anricot and the pastel shades

SOME REASONS WHY YOUR
 PLANTS DON'T THRIVE

The amount of pleasure derived from growing plants depends entirely on their condition. A hardy plant i'll tin can is more hopeful and in- spring sight than mighty palm with yellowing and dejected edges.
 Here are some of the reasons why plants refuse to thrive indoors:
 Plants in bloom that have been bought of florists have been forced into flower by means of artificial heat and moisture. To keep such plants they must be moistened frequently, letting the pot rest in basin half full of water until the plant has absorbed enough water and the top layer of earth is damp The leaves should be sprayed with a flower spray or gently washed oil, according to their size.
 When the plant has not been forced watering must be adapted to it's individual needs. A cactus or ether succulent plant requires less water than robust foliage plants, for instance. Many of the slow growing cactaceae need hardly any water dur 'ng the winter months unless they are in very warm rooms. Ferns. however. need to be watered and sprayed frequently. and the slightest neglect in this respect VII do the plant great injury. The water should if possible be soft. Rain water, col lected for the purpose, is best for or dinary use. Palms and foliage plants require spraying every other day in winter, if kept in rooms where the temperature IS high. The proper tenn perature of the rooms in which plants are to thrive should be between 65 and 70 degrees. This will suffice for all plants even tropical ones. The atmosphere is often too dry in the American dwelling-house, and many kinds of insects attack plants in a dry atmosphere. Frequent spraying helps to overcome this trouble, but when the green fly makes it's appearance on the house plants it must be fought either with strong tobacco smoke or by dipping the foliage in weak tobac- 1 co water Young shoots should be dusted with tobacco powder.
 The red spider which attacks plants if kept too dry can be got rid of by washing with q strong solution of fir tree o.l.
 Diseases arise from injudicious watering, draughts, previous attacks ] ef insects or bad drainage.
 Aildew on the house plant is paused by sudden chills. It attacks 1 young shoots particurlarly.
 When the leaves of the plant turn sickly yellow something is generally the matter with the root and the plant i sl0uld be turned out and examined. Ii the cause is not apparent removal oi the old soil, repotting in fresh and suitable soil will effect a cure.
 Roots of house plants are often found to be rotting if the plant is al- lowed 10 stand in water.

CAUSES OF DAME
 FASHIONS TYRANNY.

Two friends were looking over a collections of photographs. Salh cne: Doesn't Noni look absurd i'll that kettledrum hat and that ridic- ulous, sawedoff effect of bodice? I remember that that gown was my particular despair; it made m ne look SD ordinary, and everybody thought her so bewtching the season she wore that Franchise hat
 Heres the date on the back of the picture" said the other. Do you req lize that it was taken only four years ago. How soon fashions become ob- solete'
 Hereupon they entered into a dis crssion as to what cCnst tuted the beautiful in dress To this question it was found there could be but one answer-viz., the fashionable.
 To find reasons fer this one need not seek far. Shakespeare dictum tfat '.the apparel oft proclaims the man. is true in wider sense than that n which it was originally intend- ed. since the dress Of time is the outward manifestation of the mind Of the time. Just as a style of afchl- lecture springs up suited to the age and condition of the country-that Of broad. marble surfaces to repeal the light in a hot, bright country ot abcunding quarries, and that of slant l ing roofs, pinnacles and many Win dows in land of forests where snow falls and light is needed-so stlye in dress is a manifestation of the people.

The flowing robe was the natural express on of the languid life that stunned itself by the side of the blue Aegean. Adopted by Philadelphia Quaker. however. moving with ostrich grace among the creations of Felix, Worth and Paquin that adorn a mod ern ballroom. this expression of an alien life s as out of place as the re clining posture would be at a modern dinner.
 Efforts having been made at times to usher in a style of dress conceived by certain coter es as mere artistic CT more rational than the prevailing fashion such as the striving after the Nicturesque some years ago in London hy the followers Of Oscar Wilde, Or the attempt of Susan B. Anthony and other enthusiasts is this country who sought to inaueurate al age Of boomers. Like all efforts working out side the ma n current of human life, these could not have been otherwise than destined to failure. A prevail ing mode in derss is simply one phase of a general, we'll ordered pace of life to run to counter to which, as is oft en done for instance by certa n self congratulatory, self-styled bohemians, is to strive to create rowdyism rather than culture.
 The result is ouly disastrous in it's effect upon the aliens themselves. for so great is the force of the conven- tional that the one who rad cally de- parts from it in even such a matter as the often considered minor mat. ter of dress challenges those powers against which the individual is not strong enough to stand
