The Guarantee,

William J. Burns. the famous de-
tective. was talking In New York

Coffee Ais Vanish Before Postum.

It seems almost too good to bs

troubles vanish when coffee is dis

which causes the trouble. but Postum
contains only the food elements in

Good Eatlnn.

"Metchnikon. the Metchnikon Of
sour milk fame, is soon to celebrate In
Paris" said a Paris correspondent on
furlough In New York, his seyentieth
birthday.
Since his sixtieth birthday. when he
began his sour-milk regime, Metchni-
koff has not aged. On the contrary, he
has become rejuvenated.
ITO the committee that has in
charge the splendid honors OF his
birthday celebration, Metchnikoi1 gave
some advice on the benefits OF frugal
eating-the benefits of taking no alco-
hol, very little meat, and an abundance
OF well cooked green vegetables. And
he ended his lecture with this crystal
OF wisdom:'
GOOD eating makes more pessi.
mists than bad luck

HAYWARD 4 chA Y 60, I, &c,

NEW ORLEANS, March 26.-The
market opened about 4 points lower this
morning on further weakness In New
York and seems again entirely under
the control Of the Northern market cen-
ter July tn New York Is now 100
points under the price quoted for spot
middlng. and stiii the intention there
is again reported beariSh, with the bear
element apparently experiencing no ops
position IN shaping the course Of the
market to their liking. Why the sum
mer positions can be. or should be, at
such an enormous discount under the
actual price Of cotton, Is a puzzle TO
many, but the very fact Is intlnidating
and tends 70 suppress support all
around.
May and July are 1--WE TO eight dollars
under the cost OF cotton in the South
and this fact should attract mills TO
secure their supplies by taking up fu-
lures
Local railroads received word that
the line between Laredo and Mexico Is
open and that large shipments Of cot
ton which had been held back for
months win now 80 forward. This Will
increase consumption statistics. The
fnto-sight for the week looks around
l6a 000. against t{0.i05 last year and We
compare with mill takings Of $4,000
bales last year.

also bought May and July. Norden and

ing them at a discount OF $50 points.
BY the law Of probability the South
should produce bumper this year, sim
ply because the crops OF 1912 and 1918
were moderate, not to say small, as
measured by present day standards. But
the law OF probability does not always
work out in farming and the exceptions
not only prove the rule, but break the
speculator who banks on the system. =
