Experience and a Mothers Love Make
Advice Valuable.

An Ills. mother writes about feeding
children:
III mothers would use Grape-Nuts
more for their little Ones, there would
be less need for medicines and fewer
doctor bills.
III those suffering from indigestion
and stomach troubles would live on
Grape-Nuts, toast and good milk for a
short period they would experience
more than they otherwise would be-
lieve.
"Our children have all learned to
know the benefit OF Grape-Nuts as an
appetizing. strengthening food. 1t is
every evening, with few variations,
like this: Mamma, let's have toast and
Grape-Nuts for breakfast; or, let's have

COTTON GAMBLERS
 HELPING FARMERS
CORNER IN DECEMBER cURTAlLs EXPORTS OF COTTON AND EN- ABLES FARMERS TO HOLD FOR HIGH PRICE.

New York, November 9-(Special)-Ihe cotton speculators who are quarreling over the December option, by their world wide advertising have led farmers in the south to believe them to be great forces in the market and by that very fact have really made themselves so Therefore when the farmers were told some weeks ago, that a pool of New York brokers had eornered the December option and would put cotton to 15 cents the farmers quit selling and held. their cotton The result has been heavy decrease in exports. The corner had not begun ito have it's effect until the first week in October. The exports for october this year are the smallest since 1900. They amount only to S15,s93 bales. This compares with the exports of 1,197 134 bales in 1903 when the crop was only 10,000,000 bales. This year the crop is 12,000 900 bales at least
 The men engaged in the corner claim that the small October exports are due to the lateness of the crop. In 1908 the crop was so late that only F GOO bales had been ginned up to September l. This year the ginning up to September 1 amounted to 196,00O bales.

The straddlers have all sold December and bought January The pool knowing that the warehouse capacity in New York is only about 250,- GOO bales, bought December and all the spot cotton and sold January.

Soda Water the National Beverage.

From the New York World
 The ,OOO onyx and bronze soda foun- tain installed in a Thirty-fourth street drug store marks for time the climax of this form of ornate architecture. It is at once the Waldorf and Singer Building of soda fountains, costing as much as a half dozen two-family suburban dwell- ings.
 The extent to which soda water has be- come the national beverage is indicated not alone by this monumental example of fountain, nor yet by the army of clerks to whom the connection and dis pensation of sweetened drinks gives em- ployment. A more realizing sense of the growth of the industry is gained from the thirty firms engaged in manufact- Ing soda water apparatus The $4,202, 452 of capital invested, the 1121 wage-earners employed, and the increase of output from $l,075000 to $3.016,4l3 within twenty years testify to the enormous demand for soda-water.
 Soda-water, as Americans understand 1t, is practically an unknown delight abroad. The London 'Arry, in spite of the introduction of few fountains in Eng land, has only lemon pop to offer 'Arriet, and the matinee girls remains content with ices.

MEN AND THEIR CLOTHES.
Americans and Others as Seen By a
 London Sartorial Critic.

From London Tailor and Cutter
 A mans dress invariably proclaims who and what he Is. It Is an index to his character. his tastes and his na- tlonallty. and without making a too ab- truse study it Is possible to indicate those features which proclaim the nationality of the wearer.
 Of course there Is an aristocracy of the nations who are difficult to dis tinguish except by some pecuiarity of face or figure. Their clothing is refined and tasteful and leads one to believe that their garments are London made, as they are free from those glaring pe- cuiarities which characterize the products of other countries
 The Americans garments are gener- ally quite two sizes too large for him, the collar of his coat is exceedingly mar row and the shoulders and back excess sively wide. His jackets are often ex- tremely long and his trousers pegtops finished with raised seams. His favorite garments are the lounge and Chester field, and these are often finished in some extraordinary way which he fancies to be original.
 The Frenchman Is dressy. His gar ments are close fitting and decidedly "waisty." He favors the frock and the morning coat, which he has finished with as much ornamentation as possible. Silk facings, braided edges and fantastic flaps are all characteristic of his dress, while he also pays a good deal of attention to his hat tie and cuffs.
 The German is in many instances a modified American He likes plenty of room, especially about the chest. which part of his anatomy he delights to make
 much of. Consequently there Is often seam up the front of his coat from the waist. In cut his garments are an- gular, and in style he favors the morn ing coat and lounge. There is lack of personality about his attire, and one can invariably detect the result of his military training in the uniformity of his garments.
 The Spanard is modified form of the Frenchman. His garments are suit able he dscards vest. and his jackets are close fitting and finished with low roll Generally speaking. there is less peculiarity to note about the Spaniard s dress than with many others. The Austrian and Hungarian partici- pate in the characteristics of the Ger
