Two Golden Days

There are two days of the week up
on which and about which | never
worry, two care-tree days kept sac
redIy free from fear and apprehension.
one of these is Yesterday. lester-
day with all its cares and fretS, with
al its pains and aches, all it's faults,
its mistakes and blunders, has passed
beyond the reach of my recall | can,
not undo an act that | wrought. |
cannot unsay a word that | said Oh
esterday. All that it holds of life, of
regret and sorrow, is in the hand of
the Mighty Love that can bring sweet
waters out Of the bitterest desert
the love that can make the wrong
things right-that can turn weeping
into laughter, that can give beauty
for ashes, the garment of praise for
the spirit of heaviness, joy of the
morning for the woe of night.
Save for the beautiful memories
that linger, sweet and tender like the
perfume of roses, in the heart of the
day that is gone, | have nothing to do
with Yesterday.
And the other day | do not worry
all its possible adversites, its burdens,
its perils, its large promises and poor
performance, its failures and mis-
takes, is as far beyond the reach of
my mastery as its dead sister-Yes-
terday. Its sun will rise in roseate
splendor. or beyond a mask of weep
ing clouds. But it will rise. Until
than the same love and patience that
held yesterday, and holds tomorrow,
shines with tender promise into the
heart of today. | have no possession
in that unborn day of grace. All else
is in the infinite keeping of that Intin-
ita Love that holds for me the treasure
Of yesterday, the love that is higher
than the stars, wider than the sky,
deeper than the seas.
There is left for myself. then, but
one day of the week-today. ANY
man can fight the battles of today.
ANY woman can carry the burdens Of
lust one day.-Robert J. Burdette.

New York, September 24-The cotton

 above the low level of Monday and nearly
 3 cents per pound above the low level
 of last summer Heavy realizing has
 been encountered while there also has
 been a good deal of straddle selling here
 for Liverpool account but offerings have
 been taken on moderate reactions and
 bullish sentiment has been encouraged by unfavorable weather. increa sing con- fidence- in small crop estimates and a tendency to increase estimates of the worlds requirements. Private cables re- ported that a prominent English statis- tioian estimated the probable requirements of American cotton for the season at 15,000, 600 bales, which local bulls compare with crop estimates of about 12000, GOO and reports of increa sing activity in the dry goods trade have encouraged the bullish view of American requirements while exports have been larger and there have been reiterated predictions of a boom In foreign trade once the allied loan has been negotiated. The last weekly report of the weather bureau read un- favorable and there have also been nu- merous private advices to strengthen a disposition to compare the crop outlook with 1910. when the yield was only TO pounds to the acre. The more active
 demand and advances reported in south ern spot markets have naturally con- tributed to the upward movement in fu- lures and while some recent sellers claim that bulls are exaggeratng both the prospects for export business and unfa- vorable new crop features, most of the | req ctionary or bearish talk heard around the ring here has been based upon the rapidity of the recent advance and the | increasing new crop movement. Farm CTS are reported to have been selling free ly on the advance in the south. and 1t is said that a great deal of cotton has l been bought on speculation, attracted by l improved warehouse facilities and bank l ing accommodations.

 Trade currents are running more freely than heretofore; remaining obstacles to progress are passing; growth Is of the cumulative type; sections somewhat pes simistic awhile ago are now taking brighter view of the future, and Inter- national political and financial matters apparently have assumed more pleasant aspects, although negotiations for the huge British h-French loan have not been entirely completed as yet. Three forces loom large in the weeks expansion-cold weather, higher prices for cotton and for eign orders for munitions of war.
