A Riddle for the Cotton Grower.

A bale Of cotton, weighing 500
pounds, will make about 5000 yards
Of calico.
To make the calico, at ne present
prices Of cotton, will cost about
$102.50 in all.
Let us say that the spinners only
gets an average Of cents yard for
his calico or $3.50 for the 5000 yards
In that case, he clears a net profit Of
$41.50 on each bale.
On a crop Of 100000 bales, the
spinners will make a profit of $49S,-
100000. At cents per yard, he clears
$216. 900.
What do you think Of that?
/ can understand we'll enough why
the spinner puts himself to some ex-
pense and trouble to meet the grower
in conference.
He has natural curiosity to see
what such blamed fool looks like.
The thing which puzzles The Jeffer-
sonian is this:
How on earth does the spinner
manage to keep his face straight when
he meets the man that he so easily,
so constantly, and so numerically
robs?
This calico cost you from to 8
cents per yard. Therefore, you sell
500 pounds Of cotton for less than $50
and buy it back at more than $3.50.
No wonder you are so prosperous
that all the Plute newspapers are ask
ing you to ring the bells, light the
bonfires, toot the whistles blow the
bugles. and do everything else in God
Almighty's world excepting just one
thing:
Don't study the construction of the
trap in which you are caught.
Keep selling a bale OF cotton at $50
and buying it back at $3.50.
That's one way to please the Privi-
legged Few who pocket the $120 which
you lose on each bale.-Exchange.

WOMEN IN PROVERBS.

standing of woman in the estimation
of the various peoples of the earth a
German paper writes: THE fair sex
play an unenviable part i'll many lands,
as you may see by the weil-known
adages. The Spaniard says: Women
and mules will do our bidding more
readily when we stroke than when we
strike them; 'Woman's tears are worth
much and cost little; The fox is sly,
but woman who loves is more So The
Arab says: Mans beauty is his soul
woman's soul is her beauty; ASK your
wife's advice and then follow your own
Judgment In India they say: The
coauette is like a shadow; follow it
and it fees, fly from it and it will fol-
