early settlers turned to cover, while there
was continued demand from trade sour

was steady. and at practically the best
figures reached on the recovery.

MARKET STEADY
BY Associated Presa.

New Orleans, Oct 11.-Cotton futures
opened steady at a decline Of to
points in sympathy with lower trend
In New York. Liverpool was somewhat
higher than due to meet the fluctuations
In this market yesterday afternoon. After
the call, selling for both accounts was
general and prices were put II to 10
points under yesterdays close on the
more active months. At these levels bulls
began to take on cotton again. basing
their buying on kilograms from Texas
complaining Of too much rain. Tho rest
Of the cotton belt experienced favorable
weather. but the forecast Promised un-
settled weather and showers for the west
ern belt to night which overbalanced any
favorable features in the weather news.
Around the middle of the morning the
market began to show strength and prices
from then on until noon made a gradual
advance until almost complete recovery
had been brought about. Buying Of
strong character was in evidence. com
ing chiefly from professional sources.
Commission houses had few buying orders
to execute, but rather seemed to be exc
cutting profit-taking orders from their
customers. who were apparently in
fiuenced by the general talk Of the proba
bility Of a wide reaction. At noon the
market was quiet and steady with the
trading months unchanged to 2 points
down, compared with yesterdays close.

READY FOR HIS
FLIGHT ACROSS
THE. ATLANTIC
WALTER WELLMAN ABOUT READY
FOR HIS DARING ATTEMPT TO
CROSS THE OCEAN IN A BAL.
LOON.
Special to the Journal.

Atlantic City, N. j., Oct u.-There
will be no eight hour day for the six
men who are about to start on a trans
Atlantic trip to London in Walter
Wellman's airship, America" Eigh-
teen hour shifts will be the rule, and
with the multiplicity of engines, ropes,
instruments and apparatus to watch
they will be busy shifts. Yet the crew,
the captain, and the engineer are i'm
patient to begin these labors.
The big dirigible with it's 22S-foot
gas bag and its 156-foot car. has been
tested in every detail, and now swings
uneasily in it's shed here, ready for
the Journey with its wireless equip
meut installed and its supplies all
stored.
Our estimate of the time for the
flight" said Mr.. Wellman today, 'is
somewhere from six to eight days, it
conditions are decently favorable, but
We will have provisions for a thirty
days flight and emergency rations for
thirty days more. That is a safeguard
against the thousand chances that be-
set an enterprise like this.
"Mr. Melvin Vaniman, the mechan-
zeal genius of the expedition, has done
everything that skill and foresight
can do to make the airship fit for the
Journey and though failure is not
unlikely, we believe we're going to
demonstrate that a dirigible can cross
the Atlantic in the same time or even
less than the liners"
The aviator, who is to write the
story of his trip exclusively for Hamp.
tons Magazine, bases his belief that
the trip will take about week on
two factors, the engines and the
winds. One gasoline motor Of so
horse power will turn two propellers
$50 times a minute, giving speed OF
20 miles an hour There is also an.
other motor of 9O-1oO horse power
driving two other propellers. The
larger motor is to be used alternately
with the other, one running while the
other cools.
A careful study Of air currents has
shown the prevailing winds at this
season of the year to be in the di
rection of the airships projected
course. In still air the aviators can
| make a speed Of 20 miles an hour
with one engine and any favorable
wind will increase the speed by the
velocity OF the breeze. TO keep the
| dirisible at the desired distance above
the water, Mr.. Vaniman, the engi
neer. has designed what he calls the
"equiiibrator," which is a series OF
cylindrical gasoline tanks strung like
beads on q long steel cable. This is
controlled by means of a winch or
the car.

THE FLAVOR OF LIFE

Inc haYor OF the peach, the perfume
OF a rose, is a subtle thing. You can
not weigh the flavor or the odor.
But favor is real thing.
So of the favor of ones life. 1t is
subtle, but real The flavor of your
life is what you really are. your per-
sonality
What you say or do, the opinions you
hold, the position you occupy, the
clothes you Wear-none of these things
counts when put beside your real per-
sonality, the flavor of your life.
"Your actions speak so loud cannot
hear what you say said the native to
the missionary.
know minister who breaches bet
ter sermons out of his pulpit than in
it. When ! am with him / feel like
virtue is gone out of him into me-
Why?
Because of the flavor Of his life.
Because what affects me is not what
he says as a minister, but what he is
as man.
The flavor of the fruit is part and
parcel Of the fruit. It cannot escape
from the peach or the peach from it.
It pervades the fruit and is Of the es-
sence of it.
So of the flavor of your life
1t is part and parcel of you. You
cannot assume it and throw it off at
viii. 1t pervades you as subtly. but
as really. as the perfume of the rose
Personality we call it that for want
of a better term-is the flavor of self.
Great men are great because of per-
sonaliry. the favor of character. They
do not pretend to be great or assume
their greatness. They are great The
flavor is of their real essence.
Lincoln. Grant, Lee. three great men
of a single epoch, had the flavor of
greatness. There was nothing artif-
cial about them They were single In
motive, not posers They were genu-
inely great. and the flavor Of their
lives was genuine flavor Their per-
sonality exhaled greatness because it
belonged to them
What is the flavor of your life?
There is nothing complex about it.
If you appear to be kind and courteous
and just there is no flavor to your life
unless you really are courteous and
kind and just.
You cannot create favor of life by
assuming to be strong or honest or
loving. You must be honest and strong
and loving or there is no real flavor.
To put it Seripturally, favor is the
salt of character.
"But If the salt hath lost its SAVIOR,
wherewith shall it be salted?''
