OpportunltleS,

ln our Individual life there como opportunities, which we may miss be- cause we have such false standards by which we judge things. We wait for the great event and for the great oc' casioa. and We call that great which makes big splash in the world. Or. when the trial comes we shrink from 1t through false modesty, saying to ourselves that some other more worShJ instrument should bs chosen. If our general attitude were right, we woulS see the meaning of all that is called opportunity. We are not alive to the gracious possibilitiel of the unregard' ed chances of every day. We need . more solemn sense of responsibility. Eore serious view ot the ever-con. stant 1uNctures that occur.-Hugk Rlsck.

FRENCH HOLD GERMANS.
BaIgians Compelled to fan baek
 Across Yser.

London. Aug. 7.-The new German offensive in the west, gathering forge at two vital extremes of the pattN front, made itself intensely eVldenceu today when the Germans forced the Belgiars across the 4ser to the soutii of Dixmude, and the crown prince army again assaulted the French Key position on the Argonne front.
 In this latter action, drive agalnst hill No. 213, the forces under the command of the kaiser's son followed through after an intense cannonade with heavy guns and the explosion ol two mines directly under the para pets of the French advanced trenches on the sides of the hill. Two attacks by massed forces resulted i'll the Germans gaining , temporary foot hold in one of the French trenches, from which they later were expelled by French counter attack.
 For three days successiYely the ter man forces here have been beaten back in their attempts to drive Ill al opening wedge, to reach the outer works of the Verdun Notifications, but their attacks have never ceased. Constant bombardments of artillery have had the effect of keeping down counter attacks on these invaders and maintaining the crown princes forces in their offensive role.
 The steadiness with which the French have met the attacks and ln- yariably threw back their assailants, evidences, according to military ob- servers here, the preparedness or the Frnech armies to continue bhelf wearing down process and to keep the Germans from their goal at this point.
 In the Vosges today, a spirited at tack by the Germans in the valley of Schratzmaennele creek was stop ped by the now famous French cur tain of fire, and later, at the close of the day, the Germans were held back at the bayonet point, their re- treat being accelerated by shower of hand grenades.

The Saskatoon Phoenix has a regu- lar new idea regarding what to do i'll dry territory. Here it is: Buy a gallon of your favorite brand and turn it over to your wife. Do all your drinking at home. Every time you take drink pay your wife lo cents. When the first gallon is gone your wife will have $S to put in the bank and $aeto buy a new supply, each gal lon averaging sixty drinks. In ten years at your present rate you will be dead and your wife will nave enough money to go out and marry a decent man."

 Pike Shooting In Scotland.
 The killing of a fish by a sword by . lieutenant. of the Royal Engineers receives much publicity. It may not have been hard to do, for pike often move sluggishly. and on fine warm days they have a habit of basking on the surface. In Scotland people shoot pike regularly, the corpsea being brought ashore by retriever dogs But In Scotland they shoot several things that in England We kill in other ways Foxes. for example.-Lcndon Ghrou, icla.

 ROSPERITY-
EFFECT OF THE WAR ON COTTON

With the supply of cot on about g. 000,000 bales less than that of the East year ill prospect, the southern cotton belt fronts a European situa- tCn more acute, perhaps, than that Of August l, 1914, but having now the quality of certainty in one direction tha. it did not then have. More for cign buyers of southern cotton are at war, bu. it is obvious that a consid- erableE. quantity of cotton that other wis, would not have been sold be- eause of partial or complete paraly- sis of mill operations in Europe has been bought for use in the manufac ture of explosives or of other articles of wholesale demand in war. Cessa- ton from that use in the ending of he war will tend to revive the nor nal demand, if not to increase it.. says Edward Jingle in an article on "A Year of Cotton and Othar Crops" in the American Review of Reviews for August. Continuing, MT. Ingle writes:
 Other facts reduce the weight of considerations grounded in the war. There have been other years of lean prices. Between 1891 and 1889 the average annual price per pound, New nrly Tn~ dc~f fn1 9.O3 cents to 6 cents a pound, the 11,275, ,000 bales, with the seed of the commercial crop of 1S9S-99 brought 66,0OO,000 less than the $4S6, ,000 paid for the crop of S,653,OO0 bales of 1S90-91 and the average annual value per bale, with seed, in nine years was only $4129 in an aggregate value of $3,313, ,O0a.0O0 for S0,230.00O bales.
 On the other hand, in the nine years, 1906-14, the average annual price per pound was in no year less than 10 cents, and the aggregate value of 117,S7S,0OO bales of the nine crops, with seed, was $S,O33 000,0e0, or an average of &6S.14 per bale.
 Nearly 00,000,000 year brought into the cotton belt in payment for the cotton crop has decided contribu- ticn. direct or indirect, to the inrease in the tangible wealth of the eleven sta. es at the average rate of $1,9S3,- 100000 a year, the census estimate Of the true value, of property in those state showing an increase between 1904 and 1912 from $11,551,762,0 ,000 to s27,4l7,937 ,000. Of the aggregate in the latter year $14,913,45S,0OO, or nearly 55 per cent, represented the value of real estate and improve ments, live stock and farm machinery.
 Again, it is we'll to bear in endnd the volume of total production in the eleven state compared with cotton production. In 1913 the value of the the agricultural production was not less than s2,7O0,0OO, of which $1,- O0O .OC0 900 represented cotton and Its seed the value of the mineral output was $21S, 100000 and the value of the forest products of $436, 100000, to- tal value of primary products Of $S'- as400O. .OOO. while the value of manu- ' ,.factures into which such products en- tered was not less than $1,9oO,ooo'ooo of this total s5,154,ooo,ooo value of urinary and ultimate products the value of cotton and it's seed was less
