 New York. July 2.-The cotton market was easier today with business largely in the way of evening up for over the holi. days as the market will not reopen until Monday morning. The close was steady at n net decline of s81s points. Sales were estimated al 12b,e0o bales.
 The market opened easy at decline oz 7mds points and while there was a slight rally during the early session of buying py raactionists, the general tendency Of the market was downward under Wall Street bear pressure and liquidation by yesterdays buyers who were disappointed by the weak ness in Liverpool and the failure Of yes fsrday's government report to promote any Reaarat demand from outside sources. After selling off to q net loss of about lS41b points, the market steadied on covering. but showed very little raiiying power with the close only a couple of points up from the lowest on the active new crop months. Old crop positions were dull during the en- tire session and ruled relatively easy. not wifhstanding reports of steadiness in South ern spot markets.
 Weather reports were generally favorable and the forecasts indicated no change for the immediate future.
 Rscaipts at the ports today 4,sST bales, aaatnst 6s127 last week and 2i50 last year. For the week 45.00D bales. against 43.6s2 last week and 16,a2s fast year.
 Todays receipts at New Orleans zse baias against S04 last year and at Houston 1eSs bales. agatnst 1k7 last year.

OF Interest to Wives.

NrIOHl SuCCeSS Magazine.
The Reverend Henry c. Rose has
given to the world a discovery which
can not fail to be great boon to all
downtrodden wives. He calls it "the
sleep cure" and it consists in sneak
ing in when hubby is asleep and talk
ing to his subconscious self. In this
way the Rev. Mr.. Rose declares, a
woman of his acquaintance cured her
husband of bad case of going-to-the-
club.
Tomorrow night" this neglected
wife whispered into his subconscious
ear, "you will not go to the club to
drink and carouse, but you will spend
the evening with me-"
The head of the family thus taken
advantage of has completely forgotten
his club and its annual dues, and now
they have to send for a blacksmith to
pry him loose from his home. Ac-
cording to the Newark gentleman this
is only one of numerous cases where
people have been reformed against
their better judgment.
It's all very we'll for the wife. but
what of the rent-payer and provider
of material blessings? Has he no
rights which his own family is bound
to respect? Somewhere a judge has
decreed that a wife is justified in
rifling her husbands pockets for small
change. Is she also to be allowed to
take away his inalienable right to
make a fool of himself?
