Tho Kind of a Frisnd to Have.

] have friend who calls on me
every now and then and always gives
me a new lease on life. He makes me
think more of myself: makes me more
ambitious; more determined to see my
opportunities and to make the most of
them. His calls are like the coming of
spring after a long. cold winter, which
awakens the sleeping buds and calls
out the flowers. The sunshine of his
cheerful mind. the alchemy Of his op-
timism, awakens me to renewed effort
and encourages me to outdo myself.
1 am never too busy to see him, and I
always urge him to stay, because his
presence makes me larger man,
makes life seem more worth while
than ever. He helps me to get new
grip upon myself He arcuses me, so
that 1 feel equal to any task when he
leaves.-Christian Herald.

A most difficult art, one that requires

in given spot, forty or fifty feet away,
where bass may lurk-not near the
spot but right in 1t, mind you--to land
that lure SO as to simulate a frog or
minnow naturally leaping or jumping
to escape possible attack by a bass;
to do all this with short rod and
high speed reel-casting the lure as a
small boy throws an apple from the
end Of stick-to do this with accuracy
and deftness is no unworthy ambition.

SAVED HIMSELF, UNAWARE.
Showing How tho Eye Sees More Than
One Thinks It Does.

Writing on psychological subjects in
the Ladies' Home Journal, III. Adding
ton Bruce says:
From DR.. A. II. Of PENNSYLVANIA
one of our well known psychologists,
1 have received this impressive piece
of testimony to the power of the eye
to see more than one consciously ap-
prehends:
Three summers ago, when 1 was
on visit to my old home town,
took short cut across familiar fields
where u fair growth Of weeds covered
the ground. l was going along at q
rapid gait, with my mind wholly oc-
cupied with matters other than my
my left foot, instead of going down on
the spot where it should, jerked itself
over to the left, and 1 went on fully
ten steps before 1 realized that had
made the sharpest kind OF an Offset in
my path. I wondered what made me
do 1T, turned, retraced my steps and
found an adder still coiled and ready
to strike, exactly, as 1 judged, where
my foot would have gone
''Dr. A. H., recognizing the correct
explanation Of his fortunate misstep,
adds:
During my boyhood summers
used to so barefooted much Of the
time. Through sad experiences with
stubble fields, brier patches and stony
paths learned automatically to pick
my way without giving thought to the
matter. AS result, I find myself
frequently in my walks avoiding OBJ
stacles which at the moment 1 do not
consciously discern"

Tobacco Production.

India, second only to this country in
the production of tobacco, consumes
most of its own product and imports
very little. Russia is third and raises
practically ell her supply, importing
and exporting only a small quantity.
Austria Hungary is the fourth produc-
Ing country, importing more than a
fourth as much as it raises and exports
one-eighth Of its own crop. Germany
is an extensive grower Of tobacco, but
imports two and half times as much
as 1t cultivates and does not export
any. France raises considerable tobac-
co under government supervision and
imports great quantities Of the milder
Virginia tobaccos to keep up the quail
ty OF the cigarettes and other products
made under the state monopoly. Both
France and Spain keep buyers in this
market.

KING COTTON is RECUPERATING

The sudden rise in the price of cot
ton Friday "a rise of a dollar and a
half a bale, stimulated the business
condition of the South, already in a
healthy state. The trend of the mar
ket for the past two months, in spite
of speculation, has been steadily up
ward.
The prime cause back of the rise is
he short crop that has been raised
his year. The cotton crop of the
South in 1915 will be one of the
smallest marketed in years; it will
probably be less than 100000 bales.
A contributory cause to the increased
price is the Strengthening out of GER
tain export tangles, Notwithstanding
the declaration by Great Britain that
cotton will be contraband of war in
the future. If 100000 bales of last
years crop had not been carried over,
cotton would be selling for Is cents a
pound.
Our people should bear the 3,0OO,-
600 bale excess surplus of last year;
it is improbable that cotton could or
viii So &c the prices at which it stood
before the outbreak of the war. The
world last year during war time con-
ditions assimilated only 100000
bales of the crop. The consumption
this year may and probably will be
increased, but the increase could hard
ly amount to 100000 bales. The
largest increase will doubtless be in
the cotton to be bought for storage by
nations now at war which can not OBJ
tain cotton-Germany and Austria.
1t will be remembered that w. p.
G. Harding, in his speech to the
merchants convention in Birmingham,
intimated that Germany and Austria
would take steps to Immediately re-
vive their trade as soon as the war
was over. In preparation for this,
he expected Germany, forehanded
and careful nation, to buy up cotton,
to be held in storage in the South un-
til the war was over. In short, Ger
many, like England, would benefit by
the present low prices.
The people of the South, dependent
upon the cotton crop ARE better off
at this time than they had any reason
to expect. A year ago the cotton ex-
changes were closed and the cotton
market was paralyzed. For the first
time in a hundred years farmer
would bring his cotton to town and
get no offer for it. The buyers did

BENEFITS FROM BOOKS.
Travelling Along tho Roads That Lead
Us Into Other Worlds.


The benefit Of literature can hardly
be overestimated. Books enlarge a
mans horizon. They raise a mirage of
water brooks and date palm to travel
ers in the desert. They are "the sick
mans health, the prisoners release"
Shut within narrow routine of dull
necessity, sad at heart in a world
where wrong triumphs, where beauty
has no assurance Of respect, where hui
manity tolls terribly merely for its dai-
ly bread or the satisfaction Of trivial
appetites, the earthly pilgrim need do
no more than pick up book and, 10, he
steps into another world.
Here he is free from sorrow and care,
free from the burden of his body, from
envy, jealousy, contempt, self satisfac-
ton, from vain regrets, from wishes
that can never wear the livery of hope.
from narrowness Of soul and hardness
Of heart.
He may mingle in the society of the
good and great; he may listen to the
wise man and the prophet; he may see
all the conditions Of human happiness
and misery; he may watch the human
spirit in its strife with circumstances
nobly conquer or basely succumb; he
may go down through the "g.te of q
hundred sorrows'' or accompany Dante
and Beatrice through the sraeres of
paradise.-Atlantic Monthly.

not know what cotton was worth.
For the first time in nearly cen
tury farmer could get nothing from
the bank on a warehouse certificate.
The bankers were not to blame; they
did not know what cotton was worth.
On July 20, 1914, cotton was worth
in the Liverpool and New York mar
kets, IL 3-4 cents a pound. The next
day war swept over Europe and no.
body knew what cotton was worth.
Three weeks later cotton was quoted
at z cents a pound. In the middle Of
October it had dropped to 6 cents.
But now, with the new crop at
hand, October delivery is quoted at
1910 cents a pound. 1t is but rea-
sonable that Southern business men
should be optimistic. The present is
the cheapest cotton crop raised in
10 ears. Ready money should and
will be plentiful, but until the war
is over it would be foolish to expect
cotton to be to IL or Is cents.-Mont
gomery Advertiser.

A LESSON FOR THE NURSE.
Sho Didn't Like II Whom She Was Paid
In Her Own Coin.

In Her Own Coin.
A mother overheard her nurse girl
talking to the child she was putting to
sleep, and among other legends Of the
nursery in which she was INDUCED was
this: eff you don't go to sleep this very
minute a great, big, awful, black bear,
with eyes like Goals of fire and sharp,
white, cruel teeth, will come out from
under the bed and e-a-t-y-o-u-a-l-r upv'
The poor little thing nestled down un-
der the clothes to dream Of horrid
bears eating her up.
That night when the stolid nurse had
composed herself in her own comfort
able bed and had put the light out
there came a sudden rap at the door,
and the voice Of the mistress called
loudly through the panels: Maggie!
Maggie! Get up as quick as you can!
There's burglar under your bedr' at
the word burglar" the girl sprang
screaming from the bed. tore open the
door and fell into Mysteries in the hall.
= The lesson was more instructive than
the mistress designed, but when the
girls fears had calmed she said to her:
"You did not hesitate to tell my deli
cate child, who could not possibly
know that it was lie, a cruel story
about bear under her bed. Now,
when treat you to the same kind Of a
story, you are nearly frightened to
death. Tomorrow you can go into the
kitchen and work there. You are not
fit to care for little children."-St. Lou

WRECKED THE THEATER.
When London PIaysoers Ro,e Against
an Increase In Prices.

H..
There occurred in London something
over a hundred years ago series Of
riots called the 20. p. riots" which
grew out of an increase In theater
prices.
In 1909, after Covent Garden theater
had been burned to the ground and re-
built, it was reopened under the man
agement of John Kemblc. one of the
Kemble family of great actors, with an
increased scale Of admission prices
The new theater was all right, and
kemble was popular, but the theater
going public resented the increase of
prices.
On the opening night when Kemble,
who was to play Macbeth, attempted
to make an explanatory speech he was
hooted down by demands for "olG
prices" and night after night people
crowded the house, danced on the seats
and interrupted the players with cries
of 20. P.," old prices.
The disturbance continued for sew
eral weeks, the people wearing 20. p"
badges and displaying big 20. p" plac.
ards. The theater was closed for. sew
eral days, but when it was opened the
trouble began again. Seats were de
stroyed and windows broken.
Legal proceedings were taken and
failed. The municipal authorities, as,
sisted by Il governor of the Bank of
England, finally brought about a com
promise.-Philadelph Press.
