The many friends of Mrs. Lu- cia Hobgood will regret to learn that she is seriously ill in St. Louis. Mrs. Hobgood accompa- nied by her brother, Judge E. L. Boyce, left here ten days ago for Rochester, Minnesota for treatment at the Mayo Bros. Sanitarium, but received no en- couragement from the noted specialists as to her condition, and was on her return home.

 selves and are carried off their feet by an assumption of a rash statement intended only for po-
 litical effect. The truth is the government statements have with rare exceptions, proven re- liable, as shown by the fact that almost invariably they tally closely with the actual yield at the close of the season, exceed ing the output, now and then but little, and in a few instances being less. The spinners' esti- mates of the growing crop are almost invariably too high, while just as invariably the estimates made by the growers are too low. It is not difficult to see the why of this discrepancy. Ii is to the spinner's interest to ere ate the impression that the out look for the crop be made as promising as possible. By this means he endeavors to bear the market. On the contrary, it stands the cotton grower in hand to underate the outlook of the growing crop, for in market parlance he is a bull. The gov ernment, being a disinterested party, is interested only in get ting at true conditions, and this it usually does
 But it is desirable from the
 standpoint of the cotton grow CT that estimates of the growing crop should be made for by this means only can there be obtain ed reliable knowledge as to the probable supply. This knowt edge enables him to determine the intrinsic value of the crop. Without it the grower would be entirely at the mercy of the spe- culator.

 w DC growing fields of the
 north, less dependent upon the
 whirhs of the markets than he
 is. }When the farmer in Minne-
 sotA Wisconsin or Kansas sees wheat declining he has but to
 close the doors of his bins and
 wait until a rebound in the mar
 ket makes it profitable for him
 to sell. He has corn, hay, oats, hogs and cattle to turn to. He has plenty of these to sell. Not so with the cotton grower. The bales he has raised represent his years work. His cattle are
 rarely more in number than will
 suffice to supply the family de-
 mand for milk and butter. His pig pens rarely furnish enough bacon for his winters supply, l while his corn crib is usually empty within a few months af- ter the crop has been gathered, l His wife needs a new dress, his children new shoes or school 1 books. He needs clothing for himself. He has nothing to sell to procure these articles of ab- solute necessity but his cotton, therefore, the cotton must go, no matter what it's price may be. He would like to hold it longer, until he can secure for it a price that will remunerate him for the labor incident to it's production but can not do so.
 The convention fixed upon fifteen cents as the minimum price for this years crop. This may be a good idea and it may not. Much will depend upon the
 extent of the crop and the de-
 mand for same. Much also will depend upon the purchasing ca pacity of the consumer. At
 tempts to fix prices, regardless
 of the memorable law of
 supply and demand, are rare- ly successful. our years
 ago the farmers union tried holding their cotton until the
 price of fifteen cents was reach ed, and the result was disas- trous. Too much cotton had
 been produced to justify the price. Mills could not secure orders for goods at prices that warranted the payment of ff- teen cents for the raw product, and the cotton remained in the warehouses, and much cotton

Attention OF the mystically inclined
seems 10 be centered at present upon the
work OF Mr.. Clay Burton Vance, who.
although laying claim TO no special gift
OF supernatural powers. attempts TO reveal
the lives OF people through the slender
clue OF bi-th dates The underiable accu-
racy of his delineations leads one TO sur
mise that heretofore palmists. prophets,
astrologers and seers OF divers beliefs
have failed to apply the true principles Of
the science OF divination.
IL is not to be denied that astrologers
have excited the interest OF enlightened
people OF all ages. but there have been

science. One can only Judge the potency

I'D YER Using TALKS
BY WILLIAM c. FREEMAN

Have you noticed in newspapers general
ly the recent piano advertisements? They
are quite different from piano advertise
ments of old. are they not?
You don't read any claptrap nonsense
any more. Only here and there hobs up
a firm which claims the earth and tries
to make you believe it-but you don't

as there are many fine automobiles Ev-
cry piano that has merit can be honestly
advertised, and its makers or agents will
sell to a certain percentage of people.
Every automobile that has merit can
be honestly advertised. and 1t will get a
share Of the public's trade.
When I came to buy a piano for my
home, some twenty-five years ago /
bought one that we liked. We used it for
twenty years, and then exchanged it for
another of the same make. 1 always like
to read the advertisements of this plano in

friends who do, although I haven't any
two friends who own the same make Of

me.
1t is all a matter of choice. and since
all people do not think alike every good

The people are unit, however. on get
hi6 what NhtN pay lOIs they uOn want
any misrepresentation about it.
There are pianos-good ones, too-that
sell at low prices; they may not last as
long as some of the more expensive ones
and we are now being told the truth about
pianos in advertisements, with the result
that we can buy whichever make we want
and feel certain that we are not getting
fooled.
Confidence in advertising is a great
thing. The piano people are getting it,
except in rare instances. Those that still
exaggerate are not doing any business to
amount to anything.
