A preacher who was crank on

constantly harping on baptism. A
brother that longed for rest handed

Friends" said the preacher. there
are three things suggested by this
scripture: First. the transgressor.
Second. his conversion. Third. his

two and come at once to the third"
Many reasons why people should
trade at home rather than send their
money away have been given, but sup
pose we pass them all by and come at
once TO the one vital reason:
II is the right thing to do.
For after all the fundamental dues-
ton In every transaction IL whether
II Is right or wrong. Not will save
money. but Is II Just? Not Is Ii more
convenient. but Is IL fair? Not
whether is II good business, but
whether II is good morals?
For you and l know, and all the
world Is coming TO know, that not
one dollar is ever saved or made BY
unfair means that does not curse the
possessor. And a man may be as dis
honest In saving money as In getting

II is right TO spend our money with

A new era has dawned upon the
production and trade of cotton.
No better evidence OF this can he

warehouse movement, the main
project of which is to improve the
preparation OF cotton for market,
and do away with injurious meth
DDS of conducting the trade. While
the whole cotton belt is i'll a way
interested in this departure, more
progress has been made in Texas,
which now grows nearly one-third
of the crop, than anywhere else.
But one of the first difficulties APP
