A QUESTION OF STATURE.

The order of the president adding all inch to the height requirement of candidates for admission to West Point has stimulated historical inves tiSation as to the stature of some of the worlds famous military men.
 The order provides that from its date aspirants for West Point training. if r years of age. must be 6i inches feet and i inches-taIl and if over Is years. 65 inches in height
 The order. it may be seen. still ad- mits of the admission of comparatively short men; but il would have exclud- ed Napoleon, Lord Roberts. of the Bri- tish army. and our own brilliant Gen eral Sheridan, who was but feet, l-2 inches in height
 In the current number of the Cen tUry Magazine. David Homer Bates says that when President Lincoln first saw Little Phil" he said: General Sheridan, when this peculiar war be- gan thought a cavalryman should be at least feet 1 inches high, but have changed m.- mind-5 feet will do in a pinch" The humor of that remark appears in the light of the fact
 
 Of course in such cases there must be a standard. and whatever within reason t may be. some man of excep- tional ability may fall below it. That small men ma- be exceptionally eff cient fighters was illustrated by the Japanese in the late war with Russia. and we have recently had a famous visitor in General Kuroki. the Japan csc commander in that war. who is himself a notable example of the di- minutive in stature.
 But it is reasonable to suppose that Japan. like other powers. has her own standard for the size of her soldiers. and that some aspirants for military glory are rejected even there for not coming up to the standard, low as it may be.
 The fact has already been noted that 65 inches-5 feet inches-is not an unreasonable standard for American men. Other things being equal stature counts especially in an occupation in- volving physical conflict Under the presidents order We may miss some possible Napoleon. Lord Roberts. Sher- idan or Joe Wheeler in future wars, but the chances of it are exceedingly small.

KANSAS CITY MARKETS.
Review of Prices and Conditions of
 the Week.

! Kansas City, June 2S.-Supplies of cattle last week were fairly liberal, al though reduced from the volume of the week previous. Run today IS heaNN' at I3.OOO head. including 5000 quaran- tines. the latter mostly grass steers All grades of fed steers are steady to 10 higher best demand being for the heavy steers The medium and com mon grades of grass steers are selling weak to F lower, but have no bad ef- feet on the market for desirable steers. Cows and heifers closed last week 10 to 25 cents lower, and are shading downwards. Too many Of this class arrived last week, and few are needed this week, in view of the pres ent controversy with the packers in re- gard to buying subject to inspection. The feature of the range cattle market last week was the sale Saturday of two cars of fed Panhandle steers, one load weighing 140O lbe. at s6.25, and the other load lighter weight at s5.70. These steers were raised and fed in Swisher county. Texas. indicating the progress of the transformation of the range in the panhandle country into farms Top fed steers sold at s6.50, top quarantine fed steers s606. grass steers s3.9O to s4.70, fed heifers up to s5.25. cows s4.65. veal calves s4.50, to s6.75, stockers and feeders sS.75. to s4.S5.
 Although the supply of sheep and lambs was small last week, prices de- clined 25 cents on sheep and 35 to 50 cents on lambs, because of the glutted condition of the mutton market in the east. High prices have caused many consumers to switch to a diet of the cheaper meats. Supply today is 5000 head. and prices are still further de- moralized. good Texas muttons sell ing at s5.75, spring lambs around sS, ewes $5.65, yearlings g., goats s4.35. Arizona sheep and yearlings sold late last week at S6.5O Prices may react as soon as coolers are emptied out, although killers have lost all the snap and vigor displayed ten days or two weeks ago.

THEY HAVE TO HAVE OUR
 COTTON

The bureau of commercial statistics is able ,e tell the country that, though since isss our own mills have been taking shird and more of the cotton crop .iast year fl per cent of iO, our sales and shipments of raw cotton to ' f..relgn countries in the fiscal year ending the 5Oth inst. will total nearly 35ee. .eee. eea. The largest previous total In isesl was s4O1. .OOe, 900. It's a won lIeSfal showing. If cotton isn't king" in The sense in which the Rhetts, Yulees and Wigfalls saluted and ac- claimed h in the fifites-it maintains a royal prominence among our exports. This little table. showing the approx innate money value of our principal shipments to the foreigners this fiscal year. tells the story at a glance:
 Leather and leather goods. s45.OOO,- OOO.
 Wood and wooden things. s75,OOO.- 900.
 Copper, s100, 900.
 Breadstuffs, s175,OO0.OOO.
 Iron and steel things. s1S5.O0O,0O0.
 Meat and dairy products s2OO,OOO,- GOO.
 Cotton. $500. .0OO. 900.
 The bureau further announces that the United Kingdom has paid us this fiscal year more than s2OO,OOO,OOO for cotton; Germany more than s1e5.O .OOO,- 900: France about ssO.O0O.O 900: Italy a little more than $500 00.OOO; Spain aud Japan about s15.OOO.OOO apiece.
 After the reports which the consuls have been sending in as to the dull times in China and the overstocked coalition of the Chinese merchants. there's no surprise in the news that in ihe first ten months of the current fis- Csi year our shipments of cotton cloths [" 'hst country. fell off (as compared with the corresponding months of 1905 lses) by nearly or quite S21.OOO.OO
 We alluded a few paragraphs back {" 'he eld-time senators from the plantations; we return to them for a minute. They were firmly convinced that slave labor was a sine qua non cf the successful growing of cotton in fhe South. Yet up to 1860 the coun- fry never sold s20O.OOO,O 900 worth of ras cotton in a year to the foreign consumers. It's selling two and half times that now. Evidently black men and white men, too-are working to pretty good purpose in the cotton fIe!ds.

Three LAYERS of Atmosnhere.

II appears that in the atmosphere
there are three distinct currents OF
air, the first lying at an elevation
Of from 900 to 1900 meters, the second
at from 900 TO 1000 meters and the
upper one at from 5000 to 5000 me-
ters above the surface of the earth.
These are TO an extent separate cur
rents, flowing each with its own We
locity. At the bottom of each Of the
layers the stratus clouds are formed
and at the top of each of the layers
occur the cumuIus clouds. This sug-
gests that the stratus originate at the
bottom of a moving current and the
cumulus at the top. 1t is probable.
then, that the stratus owe their origin
to the difference in velocity and tenn
perature Of the two layers, while the
cumUlus are formed by ascending cur
rents within the layer of air.

When You Are Bilious.

The only salvation for the person
with a torpid liver, according to What
to Eat, is through a changed system of
dietectics, combined with exercise in
the outdoor air, calisthenics and deep
breathing The person with a bad
liver should habitually practice deep
and long breathing, filing the lungs at
each inhalation. The curative dietary
must consist principally of nerve or
brain food, including fish and reason
able amount OF beef, with generous
quantities of cereal foods and the
fruits that are rich in acids. In warm
weather it is best to abstain from
milk altogether. Butter and vegeta-
BILE fats, olive oil, boiled rice, baked
apples, baked potatoes, graham or
whole wheat bread, soft boiled eggs,
all constitute safe and nourishing
diet for the bilious person. At the
first symptom of biliousness squeeze
the juice of half lemon in the water
you drink just before breakfast and
before going to bed at night.
