Lycurgps, the legislator Of Spar
ia, hourihed about 1913 b. c. On
the death Of his brother Polydectes,
Lvcurgus resolved to hold the SOW
ereignty in trust in case the widow
should e4delivered Of a son. which,
proving to be the fact, the faithful
guardian carefully administered the
government till his nephew became
Of age. After this he travelled to
study the Laws Of other countries.
and on his return he established
that system which distinguished
Sparta from every state in the
world. Having bound the people
to observe this institution, he left
Lacedaemon and is supposed to
have died III Crete.

ever eager for novelty. hailed the
innovation with momentarv enthn-
siasm and supposed it was the eos
tune of an ambassador from n poor
and struggling nation.
As a matter Of fact. Franklin had
no intention Of wearing the suit in
which he appeared, and until he
found ont it's effect he probably had
an uncomfortable time Of it. for he
was a man with All acute sense Of
the fitness Of things. Some time
before he had ordered a handsome
court suit and expected to make as
fine an appearance as any other for
eign ambassador. But the tailor
from whom he had ordered the suit
did not get it finished in time, and
Franklin had to 60 in the only suit
he had ready. He continued to
wear it after his court suit was
done. as he saw he had made an IN
intentional hit. When he was in
England he wore A handsome court
dress of velvet embroidered with
gold.-Christian Herald.

In the old DAYS when many har-

in small boats driven shoreward by
the sturdy arms of the ships crew.
The beaches upon which they land

step out into the water and drag
the boats up or the shore. Their
trousers, became very wet indeed a.

lower on later months. in sympathy with
lower cables. August sold first at 1875,
but went up in big jumps on the de-
mand from speculative shorts who found
practically nothing for sale. There were
frequently % to so points between trans
actions, and before the end of the frst
hour August sold at 1890 or ESQ points
above the closing figures of Saturday,
and the highest figure reached by any
delivery since civil war times. The bal
ance Of the list steadied up to net
gain of about 2 to 6 points, but general
trading continued quiet. and attention
was entirely conferred on the sensational
winding UP of the bull campaign In Au-
gust.
August continued TO advance until the shorts
were paying zoe per pound. or nearly Slo Per
bale above the closing figures OF last week:
At this level one Of the leading bulls Offered
to sell 100. 900 bales, which was taken to mean
that the bull deal would eliminate at that
figure, and the market later reacted with An-
gust selling off to IS. 20, while the new crop
declined to net loss Of about TO points
The market continued nervous during the MID
die Of the day and renewal of demand from
August shorts sent the MARKET up frfon. lS2O
