NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The failure of
cables to meet expectations and splen-

moderate selling at the opening of the
cotton market today and first prices
we're five to nine points lower with the
tone barely steady. Later January sold
off to l212c and March to 12S0c, rep
resenting a decline of II to 10 points
from Saturdays close. The market
was somewhat nervous and sellRg
orders increased from commission
house and Liverpool sources, together
with scattered offerings from room

Trade was not so active after the
first hour and the market held fairly
steady around l199c for January and

Self-pity is INDUCED in by most men.
Some more. some less. The human
mind is so constituted that under
certain conditions OF stress. IL turns
upon itself and says: You poor.
abused thing" Tho ruination which
is wrought by II appears in the fact
that when man pities himself he
does so for the very reason that ought
to lead him to self-condemnation. He
pities his weaknesses, rather than
reforming them. He coddles his in
firmities, when they need to have the
punishment which pugilirts give each
other. No man ever pitied himself
when he ia doing the hzrd things-we
mean, really doing them. While man
is being brave the thoughts Of being
abused or i'll treated are impossible
thoughts TO him. The business man
who sits down, and while he holds his
face in his hands. bemoans: Il am
having a hard time," needs the dash
of that really cold water which ad-
versity always uses when she would
make a strong man. Self-pity un-
twists the fiber OF which manly men
are builded. Hard times make great,
robust. stalwart men-when the sub
stance is there to work on.-Bloom-
