TWO WAYS OF VISITING THE SICK

There are people who visit the

injunction. Eli Willis was sick unto
death. He had been unable TO pre-
pare his land for crops, and there
promised to be distress. A number OF
neighbors came by appointment, and
brought their dinners with them. Be
fore night they had plowed ground,
narrowed it, planted corn and a gar
den, and the cotton land was ready
for planting. A tearstained face at
the window spoke thanks of neigh
bors, and the thank you, boys" was

THE COTTON MARKET.

The cotton market has remained
dull throughout the past week. both
sides of the speculative element wait
ing and watching crop reports, while
on the one side the mills were demand
ing spot cotton, on the other hand
selling was brisk for this season of
the year. In fact it was source of
commert~in the daily press Tuesday
that Texas sales were so large as to
cause the spinners to estimate an I'M
usually large crop. Thus it will be
seen that the early sellers are depress-
ing prices and throwing away their
own money. Nobody is predicting low
er prices, while ii is well known that
the crop cannot possibly exceed the
strong demand. For your own sake,
if not for your neighbor, hold your
cotton off this low market.-Co-opera

parts of the State and being cured.
The curative properties of the mud
do not appear to be confined to rheu-
