jay Bond & Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, Feb 15.-In the early
part of the week the cotton market
registered its lowest prices for the de-
clining price movement, but in the last
few days the, tendency has been sse=dy,

spicuous, but short interest was also
built up. The heavy movement en-
couraged the belief that the crop

of large receipts. British trade re
ports show that business has been
good and less Importance is attached

ONE HUNDRED YEARS
AGO TODAY
FEBRUARY Is

One hundred years ago today Paris
was in a state of great agitation, the
ieople realizing apparently, for the
first time, that the city seemed des-
tined to fall into the hands OF the
allies. The news reaching tic cap
ital was daily of a more discourage, e
nature and rendered to increase the
agitation and fears of the populace.
The negotiations for peace, which it
was hoped would be concluded be
fore the allies reached Paris, had
been summarily broken off. Within
the week Napoleon's most skilful
maneuyers had met with succession
of checks. The allied Prussians, Aus
trians and Russians were hourly
shortening the distance between them
selves and Paris. And now, to add T.
the general gloom, the arrivals from
the south of Frances brought word
that Marshal Soult with the only
French army which still demained
complete, was falling back before the
advance of Wellington and the Eng
lish.

SUPPLY AND DEMAND

A certain good woman Of Americus

we do not serve. Sumter county pro-
ducts and Georgia products on our ia

And the good lady is correct.
And right there is food for another
thought Why is it that we cannot
get Sumter products for our tables?
And this leads up to the subject for
this article supply and Demand"
e 1t is the first law of the simplest
economics that these two factors go
hand in hand. Demand for an article
always governs the supply Merchants
carry the goods that their customers
demand. Storekeepers carry in stock
the goods that will please the ultimate
consumer The women of Americus

OUR BEST FRIENDS

The Columbus Enquirer-Sun pub
lisches an editorial that should be
read and needed by every one. 1t is
an article that will be help and
benefit and it follows:
Our best friends are those who
point out cur mistakes says a great
man
He was correct, if he meant those
who point out our mistakes to us in
stead Of pointing them out to other
and particularly to those who would
take advantage OF them and use them
to our injury.
IF our friends win show us where
in we are wrong, doing so in a spirit
Of friendly helpfulness and concern
for our improvement, they will be do
ing us an inestimable service.
But if they shall do so in a fault
finding way, irritably and unreasona-
bly,, then, perhaps, they have been OF
little help to us in correcting the err
TOR into which they have fallen.
The fault-fnder is of little if any
use to the world. He is more of .
hindrance. No man likes him, and all
would avoid hm.
But the man who comes to you
with love in his heart and an earn
est desire to help you, and will show
you in kindly way where you have
committed an error, and will show
you how to avoid it in future, will win
your lasting gratitude. You will re-
gard and esteem him as the real
friend that he is. And you will profit
by his help.
The man who makes no errors is
either in his grave or he is doing
nothing. He is dead either the one
way or the other. To err is human,
We are told, and our experience teach
es us that it is true.
If a brother be overtaksn in a
fault go to him in the spirit of frank-
ness and good fellowship and help
him to overcome it. If it be a weak
ness in that brother give him your
strength and support to the end that
he may be strong.
But for goodness sake don't nag.
Don't be fault finder. If you do you
will not only fail to help him, but
will give him cause to dilike you.
Remember that sometimes you
make mistakes yourself"

gia products and the merchants will
get them.
Imagine the effect it would have L
every patriotic woman in Americas
were to demand that she be supplied
with Georgia or Sumter feed stuff3.
The grocerymen would heed their de-
man and look around for the supply.
The farmers would heed the call of
the merchant and plant feed stuffs.
And then the boil weevil could come
and Georgia could laugh in his face.
The good women. of Americas do not
realize the opportunity that .they have
to make their county self-supporting.

organized DEMAND fer Sumter
