ANTI-OPT|ON BILLS
STRONGLY OPPOSED
COTTON EXCHANGE DEFENDED
BEFORE HOUSE COMMITTEE
George Neville, President New York
Cotton Exchange, Declares Deal
ing in Future Contracts is Essen
tial to Maintain Equilibrium.
Associated Press.


Washington, ID. O., April IL
George Neville, president Of the New
Mork cotton exchange, defended
that institution today against the
anti-option bills pending before the
house committee on agriculture.
Neville said the privilege Of
hedging and dealing in contracts in
future market were necessary to
retain the equilibrium of maket
speculation.
He said it was a necessary condi-
ton to provide a free market at all
times of the year.
Mr. Neville declared that he
thought the bills would mean the
abolition Of the cotton exchanges
and the consequent Generalization
of the cotton industry in the United
States.
Geo. r. Rembert, Of Columbia,
South Carolina, a lawyer, admitted
he was a cotton speculator, pure and
simple, and that when he raised
cotton he went into the market to
take a chance. He said it was the
speculative class that kept the mar
ket alive.

A PENALTY OF AGE

The tendency Of advancing years to
restrict activity and exercise is re-
spcnsible for the constipated condition
OF most elderly people. The wear of
years impairs the action Of the bow
els and the digestive organs are more
sensitive to the demands upon them
and rebel more quickly. Cathartics
and purgatives are violent and dras-
tic m their action and should not be
used to correct constipation. A mild,
yet positively effective remedy, and
one that is recommended by physi-
clans as we'll as by thousands who
have used 1t, is the compound of sim
pie laxative herbs With pepsin pre-
scribed by Dr. w. B. Caldwell over
thirty years ago and now sold by drug

Perhaps the smallest farms in the
world, each four by eight feet, have
been devised by Mrs. Henry Parsons
for the international Children's School
Farm league, and demonstrated In
New York. Each child becomes owner
of his diminutive farm, in which he
works, grows and harvests seven diff
ferent kinds of vegetables; and these
are borne by him in triumph to his
family. About each farm is an 1S-inch
path, which he keeps in order; under

London, Nov. 19.-Any idea that the
Turkish government may have had of
benefiting by continued resistance
must be shattered by today's news of

of that important town the Servians
took three pashas, including the com.

greatest individual success of the war.
Monastir was the second city of inn

passes completely out of Turkish
hands.

capture has not been ascertained. 1t
