THE GREAT FORCES OF LIFE.

10y LIZ I1uSA SdDOC IN Golfers.
The great moving forces Of life are
hunger and the sex instinct-self- pres
ervation and reproduction. Surpris-
ingly enough, we have dealt very diff
ferently in our developing civilization
with these wv great forces. We have
dealt carefully, thoughtfully. and intel
hgently with the production and over
sight Of our food supply. and though
much still remains to be done in this
direction we have gone q long distance
in guarding ourselves against those
diseases which arise directly, or indi-
rectly. from this cause.
With the other great moving force.
the sex instinct. we have dealt. as 1t
seems to me. with a surprising lack of
intelligence. In fact 1t can hardly be
said that we have dealt with it at all,
since we have persistehtly refused to
look the facts In the face and to deal
with these facts In the same scfen-
tific spirit which we apply to other
problems Of far less Importance. For
centuries. practically for all time, we
have allowed the great forces of sex to
play without guidance and have trusted
to a blind instinct to guide those who
can be guided only by specific knowI-
edge. We have pursued the policy of
silence and suppression end II anyone
results of this policy let him loo well
to his facts. among the o obvious
and striking OF which are the preva-
lence of venereal disease and h pro-
fession Of prostitution.
In any civilized community years are
spent in the instruction Of the young IN
regard to the management of h in
stinct Of hunger. We literally beat IT
into their heads that II they eat green
apples they win have a stomachache.
we have q sound realization Of the fact
that the care Of their bodies In general
10 essential to their economic utility
|, and we have for years passed laws and
expended money in teaching the dire
/ results which come from the consump-
ton OF alcohol. On the contrary. In
/ regard to the equally vital question Of
/ the management Of the sex instinct We
! not only give substantially no instrrc-
ton, but with our full knowledge and
! consent allow the paths which our chill
/ dren must travel to be beset with man
traps. Sensual plays. books. pictures
| stimulate sex without feeding it. create
| hunger but point no road to it's salts
faction. We have apparently no real
izing sense that unless the forces thus
brought into play are guided by knowl-
edge and warning. by precept and ex-
| ample. they can hardly fail to end II
| disaster.

economic justification.
Many people claim that an increased
assessment upon unimproved lands
would go far toward making up n
deficiency. arising from the abolition
OF the business tax: that under the ex-
listing system men are punished" for
building homes. stores or factories or
Tor raising crops or cows. The excep-
lions to this are temporary exemptions
as a special privilege extended some
times by a certain locality as an in
ducement to some large enterprise to
establish a plant there. The provinces
that have been wise enough to refuse
to tax improvements. are reaping bene-
fits therefrom. They are making eff
fective use of this feature in advertis-
ing for settlers.

MAKING INVESTMENT
FIT THE CLIENT

Copyright. 1914, By c. VI. Keys. New York;
An old woman, owning some per cent
bonds which she has had nearly twenty
five years, found out recently that these
bonds were going to be paid of in Jam
banker asking him to suggest to her
some more bonds just like them which
would pay the same rate of interest
In his reply the banker gave her a list
of bonds every one of which was either
a 3 l-2 per cent, I per cent bond selling
at a discount In one column Of his list
he had the rate of interest worked out
1t was per cent or a little more in each
case. One of the bonds. for instance. was
a , l-2 per cent issue which had twenty
years to run, and for which she could
buy at Il, or $40 for a thousand-doIlar
bond. The yield here was stipulated as
being per cent. She took the trouble
to divide Il into $50 and discovered that
the answer to this simple problem of
arithmetic was 49. She therefore replied
to her banker to the effect that this bond,
as well as all the other bonds in the list
did not yield per cent. This one bond
she figured yielded less than per cent.
The banker in his reply, OF course, ex-
planned quite clearly that in addition TO
the income of S35 a year from each 1900
bond the client would also obtain $50
at the end of twenty years because the
bond. which would only cost her $40
would be paid OF at s., 900. This ZAP
probation" he explained. is always reck-
oned as part of the return on a bond in
vestment. Similarly, IL the bond cost

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET.

New York Oct. 23-Galveston reports 5000 bales
Of cotton on shipboard waiting clearance for for
eign ports. Twenty more vessels are loading mixed
cargOes Of wheat and cotton and charters have
been made for twenty-five additional cargOes Of
cotton and wheat TO be shipped within thirtT
days from that port to England. France. Norway.
Italy. Spain and Sweden. This tells the story
Of the weekend foreign trade situation as far as
it relates to cotton and grain in the Southern
ports
Southern cotton markets were lower today, par
ticularly in Texas, where quotations Of ~ aud 81
basis Of middling were not infrequently quoted
Port prizes were Hc lower to sell noninSlly Fs to
sc. Transactions amounted TO about 500 bales
aggregate at Savannah. Houston. Norfolk, and
Augusta.
Exports to date now amount to about 4oo.0OO bales
compared with 90 bales TO the corresponding
date last season. Receipts from plantations TO
principal interior towns for week 81 4l3 bales
compared with 6s5 l56 bales for the corresponding
week last year Total movement since August l,
s3s SO bales against 4Isl sl3 bales last
Feeling in cotton exchange circles is growing
daily more optimistic There appears to be no
doubt that all plans will be consummsted ReIt
week and that tie opening Of the exchange
will not be delayed unless for reasons Of policy
in connection SEth the general economic situation
and full approval Of the banEing syndicate under
writing the hquidsting syndicate committed to
take over finally al long contracts on basis
Of nc per pound.
There is some talk Of English merchants ship
ping cotton from the South to cover the Deem
Der contracts This development is not looked
forward 10 with much concern by New York brokers.

according to his lights. That his lights
were not particularly good seems to be
unfortunate for the beneficiaries, for he
discovered that his investments. when he
made them, were all in gIlt-edge bonds
selling at a very high premium. He had
paid as high as $3.50 for some 4 per
cent State bonds. The lowest-priced bend
in his list had cost him Sl.lOO for 1900
par value. When, near the time OF dis
tribution, he obtained an appraisal of all
these securities, he found that there was
an average shrinkage Of Il per cent in
the face value Of his trust When he
brought this matter to the attention Of
the writer II was to see wheher any
hing could be done to alleviate his dis
tress at being obliged to report to the
beReficlaries such a large shrinkage in
the principal as compared with what
both he and they had expected would be
distributed. He knew perfectly well that
he would have a very bad time ex-
planning to them what had happened to
the bonds. He felt that he had done
nothing wrong and that he could Jus
tify himself. but he knew perfectly well
that explanations, no matter how good
they are, do not remove the tangible
matter which made the explanation nee
essary.
Here was another case where an in
vestment made in perfectly good faith
and in the best grade OF securities
caused distress of mind and possibly,
some physical distress on the part of
the beneficaries because the investment
was not suitable for the purpose for
which it was made. 1t produced too large
income every year, which was distributed
to the beneficiaries but a part of which
actually came as the principal leaving
it depleted to that extent.
OF course, both these illustrations are
mild illustrations. Hundreds of cases
could be adduced where greater damage
has resulted than could result from
either OF these cases. They are chosen
because in neither case was there any
element OF unsoundness in the securities
bought. and all the error consisted only
in the unsuitable character Of the Sc
curity and not in its badness.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Financial Conditions Steadily Improve Rates Are
Easier-Grain Exports Increasing Mills Busy
on War Contracts Warm Weather Bars Retailing

New York. Oct. z.-Bradstreet's tomor-
row will say:
"Cross-currents in trade and finance.
domestic and foreign, give a very irregu-
lar appearance to commercial and finan-
cial affairs. The war abroad is still the
dominating element in the entire situa-
ton, and whatever dullness or. on the
other hand, stimulation is visible, takes
its rise apparently in the hostilities in
Europe. On the favorable side of the
picture are to be found the rather Bet
ter tone Of financial matters, caused bG
international efforts to bring about a re-
sumption Of normal conditions in the
exchange market, the cotton export stu
alton and the reopening of the stock
markets. Money affairs have unquestion-
ably shown easing. foreign exchange
rates are lower, commercial paper is
selling more freely. and there is widen
ing investment demand for high-grade
railroad bonds, short-tirne notes, and city
bonds. On the other hand, necessity sell.
ing still dominates the operations Of out
side dealings in stocks and prices web
below the closing quotations Of July 30
are reported for some stocks.
In trade lines proper there are many
cross-currents visible. Warm weather,
while permitting farmers to work busily,
is bar to activity in retail trade in fail
and winter goods, clothing, foot covering
and numerous other lines, North, East,
and West, while the slowness Of the cot
ton situation to right itself stagnates the
South. The war demands are an impor-
tant stimulus to meat packing, lard re-
fning. blanket. auto and wagon manu-
featuring, harness making. machine tools
Of various kinds, drugs, hospital supplies,
underwear and knit fabrics, and horses,
mules, grain. and petroleum are being
actively bought and shipped"
