Disappearing Home Life
(Fortnightly Review

The flat dweller ought not to
keep dog, prefers not to keep a
cat, cannot have a garden has no
chance of keeping house, has no
possible place for memories, and,
most emphatically of all, has no use
or accommodation for babies. AL
though it may be possible to make
homes without kittens, or babies, or
flowers, or memories, or cupboards,
the spirit of home is hard to WOO and
win without any of them.

COTTON PRICES
LITTLE EASIER

The local cotton market did not
display much activity yesterday. Sales
were generally made on a basis of
s "a cents for good middling. Among
the buyers was an unwillingness to
take blue cotton or any of the lower
grades except at considerably greater
discounts than have prevailed thus
far. The receipts are largely of the
poorer grades, and these can only
be sold by liberal mixing with good
grades Quotations are reduced Il of

for the day were 168 bales and the

DON'T
BLAMIVE Her

For she cannot help it. Women are
often cross, irritable, hysteric, and
declare they are driven to distrae-
ton at the slightest provocation.
Men cannot understand why this
should be so. To them it is mys-
terry because in nine times out of
ten this condition is caused by a
serious feminine arrangement.
A remedy is necessary which acts
directly upon the organs afflicted, re-
storing healthy normal condition to
the feminine system, which will
quickly dispel all hysterical, nervous
and irritable conditions. Such is

The Pathetic Sequel to Tragedy Of
the Alps.
Many years ago / read a pathetic

mind as the duties OF this compilation

years and reperuse the long closed let
tiers Of my beloved and live over again
the happy days when we were all In
all TO each other. | do not remember
all the details OF the incident which SO
impressed me, but the chief facts were
these:
A married couple were crossing one
OF the great glaciers Of the Alpine re.
gions when fatal accident occurred
The husband fell down one Of the huge
crevasses which abound on all glaciers
The rope broke, and the depth Of the
chasm was SO great that no help could
be rendered, nor could the body be re-
covered. Over the wife's anguish at
her loss we must draw the veil OF ST.
lence. Forty years afterward saw her,
with the guide who had accompanied
them ut the time of the accident, stay
ing at the nearest hotel at the foot Of
the glacier, waiting for the sea Of Ice
to give up It's dead, for by the well
known law OF glacier progression the
form Of her long lost husband might
be expected to appear. expelled from
the mouth OF the torrent about that
date. Patiently and with unfailing
constancy they watched and waited,
and their hopes were ut last rewarded.
One day the body was released from
It's prison in the ice, and the wife
looked again on the features OF him
who had been so long parted from her.
But the pathos Of the story lay in the
fact that she was then an old woman,
while the newly rescued body was that
Of quite young and robust man, so
faithfully had the crystal casket pre-
served the jewel which 1t held so long.
The forty years had left no wrinkles
on that marble brow. Times wither-
ing fingers could not touch him in that
tomb, and so for few brief moments

youth as he was In the days which
