Some men respond more slowly to
the touch Of a woman's hand dis
played in their homes and upon their
surroundings. The task may seem
hopeless TO the wife at times. But
sooner or later the effect will show
itself There is something in every
man which responds to a higher and
gentler influence. Let his home be
rough and he will be rough. But in
fuse into that home a softening touch
be II ever 80 simple, and the man
feels it even though he may not dt
rectly notice II. He imbibes il I'M
consciously and its effect is sure up
on him.

We fear many good housewives
make a serious mistake in giving too
much time to Sunday cooking. 9th
ers perhaps are equally In error by
oyer-working on Saturday. so that
they cannot properly rest or enjoy
the Sabbath day. Parents and chill
dren ought to be more to each other
on that day than on any other. A
day of uplift and delight II ought to
be made In every home.

While we carefully guard whatever

be trained to more OF fibre and firm
ness. Educate them to self-denlal II

them to be or service la the house

themselves. Such girls. when portion

when the father would be home from

NEW YORK COTTON.

 The opening was steady at un- changed prices to decline of three points and the market sold 8 to Il points net lower right after the call under overnight orders. Fairly easy Liverpool cables and continued ner- yousness over the European political situation combined with the ap- preaching holiday encouraged con siaerah hle local pressure while. foreign houses and the south were active sellers.
 Todays advices from the Balkans were considered more favorable and an optimistic view of the foreign political situation was encouraged by a decline in grain and the flTmer tone of stocks. The feature of the news most emphasized. however, ap- peared to be the small local supply reports of activity on the part of do mestic mills and claims that eastern spinners were but poorly supplied with raw material
