Lemon Should Always Be
 Served With Iced Tea
Care Needed to Prevent Getting
 Either Tea or Lemon Taste Too Strong

Lemon should always be served with Iced tea. Care should be exercised however. to get the proper blend be- tween the lemons and tea flavors. Neith- CT flavor should be allowed to kill the other. The proper summer tea drink is one with just slice of lemon to cut the stringently bitter tea and make the beverage smooth and refreshing
 In serving iced tea. much depends upon the manner of service Great care should be exercised to present the guest this cooling drink In daintness Also plenty of ice should be in each glass, a good idea being to let ice stand in each glass for several minutes before the tea is poured in This puts beautiful and inviting frost on the outside of each tumbler
 The most beautiful set for serving cool drinks Is the water set now being distributed to readers by The Age Herald It consists of a three-pint pitch CT and six glasses, each of which holds half pint. Each piece is decorated and initialed in Venetian gold. Readers may get as many extra sets of glasses as they wish. How to obtain thls handsome set is explained in display announce ments and in Water Set Coupon appear ing elsewhere in The Age Herald daily

HEAVY REALIZING IN COTTON MARKET
January Cotton Sold Within One Point of Yesterdays i
 High Record

New York, September 23.-There was heavy realizing in the cotton market today. but offerings were very we'll ab actions. and prices closed steady at a net advance of from to points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of ' points to a decline of points Liverpool did not fully meet yesterdays local advance. but bnllish sentiment was encouraged by unsettled weather in the southwest. and there were a good many overnight buying or 'ders on which prices quickly sold to 12 points net higher. This advance car ried October contracts up to 11.2sc, while January sold at 11.SSc. or with in point of yesterdays high records, Liverpool was heavy seller, supposed ly on the wider differences, and the market soon turned easier under this pressure, combined with more or less general profit taking or selling for reaction. As prices worked off a few stop orders were encountered, and the selling seemed to be accelerated by a somewhat easier turn in the stock market accompanied by rather vague rumors of a hitch in the negotiations over the foreign loan. On a break to 11.09c for October and 11.61c for Janu- ,ary. however, offerings were very we'll absorbed and denial of the loan rumors were followed by a renewal of commits sion house buying and covering by ear ly sellers which sent prices back above last nights closing figures Bullish southern spot and crop advices helped the advance and so great volume of long contracts was taken out of the market on the decline that offerings were comparatively limited on the late advance. The increasing export move
 ment also seemed to be factor on the bull side, and there were reports during the day that domestic spinners were becoming somewhat uneasy owing t. the increased demand for goods and the continued strength of the spot mar
 kets with bulls predicting an increase demand from that source on any de, cline. Exports for the day were BOOST bales. making 40S,900 so far this sea

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. September as.-(Special.) ) Cables this morning were better than due. although spot sales were only 5000 bales and Liverpool showed tendency to hesitate just before our opening. There was heavy realizing in our mar lxet early and also free selling of ar bitrage here at the narrower differ ences between the markets. This cotton appeared to be absorbed by fresh out side purchasers and also by the trads who are concerned over their more im- mediate requirements. The feature oi the market continues to be the com
 paratively small volume of southern hedge selling, and southern markets art reported strong on the advance The market closed at the best prices of the season, despite the growing feeling that the advance has been so rapid that ths natural course of the market would ht to hesitate at this level. More rains arc reported in Texas. where they will in- terfere with the picking and where they are also not needed by the new growth

Denmark and Sweden
 Are Prepared for War

Berlin, September 2s-(By Wireless to Tuckerton.)-The Overseas agency quotes as follows from an editorial in the skanska Aftonbldet of Malmo, Sweden:
 Nobody knows whether the waves of the world war some day will reach the Swedish shore Sweden and Dem mark are now well prepared and would be of great assistance If they should join either side.
 If England does not perceive the moral reasons which should prevent her from violating continually the rights of northern countries. she should be impressed by material reasons. She should be reminded that if Sweden Is compelled to participate in the war 1t certainly will not be on England's side. The energetic pro- English, propa ganda will not change the feeling of the Swed : ish people. who related racially to the Germans. their sympathies belong with the Germans.

Censorship Defended

London. September 2a.-(s:10 D. m.)-Sir John A. simon. the home secretary, re- plying today in the House Of Commons to criticisms of the censorship, said that Germany had sought to use the press bu- reau as 8 medium for advertising the German government in every neutral country. but this mission he had refused to perform. He added that the necessity for censoring certain parts of the Ger man official communications had been confirmed both by the cabinet and the admiralty. Concerning the reports of the explosion of intuition factory near Pe- trograd, which had been the subject oi sensational stories, the home secretary said the government was without infor- nation whether the reports were true.

PTOCK TRADING | UNUSUALLY ACTIVE
Denial of Friction in Anglo French Credit Negotia-
 tions Steadies Market

New York, September e3.-Uncertain- y respecting the status of the Anglo Trench credit negotiations provoked ome unsettlement in the stock market oday. Rumors more or less plausible. ut emanating mainly from frresponsi- le sources, suggested a disagreement etween the contracting parties as to ertain fundamentals. Denial of any fiction or differences was made later y the commission and. resulted in par ial recovery, with investment issues in he van.
 Trading was again on very unusual cale of activity, transactions approxi- ting million shares, but dealings vere under greater restraint in that fluctuations were less violent In place f the 10 to 20 points advance or de- lines which characterized recent tur- ulent sessions. changes rarely exceed xceptions, however.

FISH ARE SCARCE ON
 MORRIS AVENUE
Another Advance of p
 Points in the Local Cotton Market

With the continued cool weather.
 oysters and fish on Morris avenue yes-
 terday experienced one of the best days
 of the year, and the market now is
 practically bare of fish. Storms on the
 coast are responsible for the short-
 age in large measure, but the demand
 had a part in it also.
 Cotton again advanced 25 points, and strict good midding now is quoted at 1fc a pound, with corresponding ad- vances in other grades. It was re ported locally that 100000 bales of long" cotton was sold yesterday in New York, and the bullish tendency oi the market was not even strained by such large profit taking. Twelve cent cotton is expected to become a reality before the end of the week.
 Today's quotations follow:

STRENGTH COTTON
 MARKET VERY GREAT
Prices Advance in Face of Tremendous Liquida-
 tiOn

Advices from New York late this aft- ernoon said that over 10000 bales of long cotton were liauidated in the days trad ing.
 A market that can absorb such tre- mendous amount of selling as this. and close higher than the previous day indi- eates the underlying strength which must always be behind a bull market in or der to assure it's success.
 This underlying strength consists of the strength in the cash article.
 Sold out bulls are as anxious to bring about a decline as the bears. and are cir culatns rumors of poor spot demand when as a matter of fact spot buyers cannot buy from the farmer at prices they offer. This indicates that much of the so-oalled "distressed'' selling. which is always present in the early movement is nearly over. Furthermore, it suggests the farmer is marketing his cotton slow ly and Is well posted as to the pros peetive shortness of the yield.
 The contracts were taken readily in small lots all over the ring, and it is my opinion if the bulls don't succeed in talking 1t down. they will replace their sold-out contracts at any price at which they can get them.
 In passing, l would like to remark that
 talking market down is a difficult undertaking.
 Believe the situation has been mate rially helped by this profit taking and what has been gold out at profit Is prospective buying power behind the market for at least the number of bales sold.
 There are two Fundamental facts that should be kept in mind and which will ultimately dominate the price. First--The crop Is very short. Second-The worlds consumption will demand a million bales more than the American growth of this and the sur plus from last year can supply c. F. AVERY

WHEAT CONTINUES
 DOWNWARD TREND
Bearish Effect Proves Far. Reaching and Plunges
 Prices DOwngrade

Chicago September 2S.-Wheat prices suffered sharp break today largely as result of the purchase of Canadian wheat to be imported in the United States. The market closed unsettled. 1kc to lssa 1lac net lower, with December at Sic and May at 96stc. Corn lost 1saSc to l, oats finished 1-16c off toA4sse up, and pro- visions at rise of 2la420c.
 Despite the fact that the actual amount of Canadian wheat bought for import was only 500C0 bushels. the bearish effect on prices proved far reaching and quick. The market. which previously had been on the advance owing to fear that con tract stocks would prove too meager to fill September deliveries, was plunged downgrade. Subsequent rallies failed to overcome the greater part of the decline. contributing reason for sentiment turning against the bulls was the an- nouncement that large elevator com pany here was proceedings to clean 500, coo of number 1 velvet chaf before Septem- Der options expired. In such a case, any question would be avoided as to whether or not the delivery would be valid, regard less of how the board of trade directors might rule as to velvet chaff which had not been cleaned. Country offerings of spring wheat in the northwest increased materially notwithstanding that early in the day reports were current that con- signment notices at Minneapolis showed falling off. 1t was said that one of the principal northern railways handled more loaded cars of wheat than ever before in the history of the line and that greatly enlarged receipts, were expected at Min neapolis next week.
 Liberal tenders from first hands weak ened corn. The weather was favorable and eastern inquiry slow.
 Oats held within narrow limits. There seemed to be no pressure to sell. Higher prices for hogs strengthened pro- visions On the bulge, though, packers unloaded quite freely, the January op- tions in particular.

PRICES F[UCTUATE AND COTTON DROPS None of the Excitement of Early Sessions Marked
 Trading

New Orleans, September 23.-Cotton ex- hibited nervous fluctuations today and felt the pressure from almost constant liqui- dation There was moderate fresh buying when the market acted soft and pre- vented wide net declines. It was a fairly large market but none of the excitement of previous sessions of the week marked the trading. The net results Of the ses- sion were loss of l to points,
 Around the opening values were lifted 10 to II points, after recession of l to ? points on the most active months, by buy ing stimulated by poor crop accounts, in which especial mention was made of dam age in Texas and Georgia. Telegrams from Texas said picking was being brought to a close in some of the south ern counties. On this rise burst of sell ing came from the long side. in which bull leaders appeared to be most prominent One trader was credited with having un- loaded large line of cotton in a very short time. Prices dropped 19 to % points to a leve. 5 to 14 points under yesterday close. Partial recoveries and small sags featured the market during the remainder of the session.
