XKTIHV not give your lad
VIII ! the same training?

when was growing lad, and came
upon many words in my reading that
did not understand, my mother, In
stead of giving me the definition when
/ applied to her, uniformly sent me to
the dictionary to learn it, and in this
way l gradually learned many things
besides the meaning of the individual
word in QuestiOn-amOng other things,
how to use dictionary, and the great
pleasure and advantage there might
be in the use of the dictionary.
Afterwards, when went to the village
school, my chief diversion, after Ies-
sons were learned and before they
were recited, was in turning over the
pages of the Unabridged of those
days. Now the most modern Una
bridged-theNEW INTERNATIONAL
gives me pleasure of the same sort.
So far as my knowledge extends, it is
at present the best of the one-voIume
dictionaries, and quite sufficient for
all ordinary uses. Even those who
possess the splendid dictionaries In
several volumes will yet find it a great
convenience to have this, which is SO
compact, so full, and so Trustworthy
as to leave, in most cases, little to be
desired. - Albert s. Cook, Ph. D., LID,

Cotton.-Prices fluctuated nervously
yesterday. leaving of without much
net change Weather advices are more
favorable The Giles report was con-
sidered bullish. Il showed decline in
condition in states during past two
weeks range from 1 per cent in North
Carolina 10 10 per cent in Florida,
Mississippi. Louisiana and Oklahoma
Georgia shows n 2 per cent improve
mont and Tennessee l per cent. Over
n greater part of the cotton belt
weather conditions are more settled
than two weeks ago and damage to
crop by rains, lack of cultivation and
boil weevi is now more apparent and
better, and more reliable opinions are
being formed in consequence.
The american Wool and Cotton Re-
porter" says: "The month of August
is usually a critical time of the year
for the cotton crop, on account OF the
weather, and the general opinion seems
TO be that the extremely high quota
fions of the past week will be replaced
bv slightly lower ones, say about 14i2
cents average. Although prices must
20 off, we shall probably not see really
cheap cotton for some time. AS is
generally the case when the price of
cotton approaches IS cents, there seems
TO be already taking place an auto
matte curtailment in the use of cotton.
Generally speaking, however, the spec
ulation in cotton has not had a great
effect upon purchases made by mills.
II is remarkable that during the past
season more old crop cotton has been
bought for immediate use by spinners
than ever before, in new crop season.
n might be added that on account OF
the unusual prices obtained for manu-
featured products the high cost OF the
fibre does not affect the mills as much

Curb Market

Yesterdays session on the Broad
Street curb was productive Of a gem
eral advance in prices, and trading in
the more important issues was active.
There was considerable irregularity at
the start, but the list generally de-
veloped strength in the afternoon
period, and final quotations in many
instances were the best recorded for
the day. The most active stock in the
industrial section was Aetna Explo-
sives, which ended at 12b, high for
the day. a net gain of nearly 2 points.

Philadelphia, Aug. 1s.--The Phila-
delphia wool market developed very
little change this week. Though the
mills were busy, most OF them had
ample supplies Of raw materials for
current needs and the demand was
light. Prices Of desirable woods, how
ever. were firmly maintained and hold
ers are confident. In less attractive
stock there has been some weakness
and rregulsrity, dealers generally
have been asking az cents for three
eighths and al cents for choice quarter
blood feeces, but buyers have been
unwilling to pay these figures. sPulled
woods and noils have been quiet, but
steadily held, and foreign sdvices are
firm. We quote.

xor,hv that existing uncertainties have

The number of automobiles in the
Netherlands, while still relatively small,
has doubled in the last four years. II
is now 7,000-not large for a popula-
ton Of 100000, but the increase is
noteworthy. II would have been still
greater had not the war caused serious
difficulties, especially in importing
tires. Many people refrain from buy
ing automobiles simply because no
guarantee can be furnished that they
will have a continuous supply Of tires.

Metals.-Another advance in the
price OF lead was announced yesterday
by the American Smelling and Refining
Company. The metal is now quoted at
Ga cents a pound, an increase Of =
of a cent. Copper prices are firmly
held in the face of large domestic
demand and heavy foreign inquiries.
Some interesting figures on copper
production were issued yesterday.
Twenty leading copper companies oper,,
ating IN this country, Canada ana
South America produced approximately
sos, 100000 pounds of copper in the
first half of 1915, an increase OF wv
100000 pounds, or so per cent, over
the corresponding period last year.
Anaconda made the largest individual
increase 300, 1000 pounds more than
year ago
. OF the iron and steel market, the
DAILY Iron Trade" has this to say:
Fairly heavy demand for steel max
ing, pig iron is developing at Pitts
burgh, and increasing volume of in
quiry appears at New York, aggregat-
ing 100000 tons net, including inquiry
for half that amount. Eastern finished
steel consumers are hurrying to cover
nseds into next year, and Pittsburgh
sheet mills are under heavy pressure
for material for first and second
quarters. Connellsville furnace coke Is
selling slightly higher, with production
barely exceeding shipments"
The foreign demand for shell steel
il far from satisfied. Inquiries from
France ard Italy aggregate nearly
100000 tons, and from $4,000 to lOO.-
600 tons more bars are wanted by do
nestle manufacturers of war NUM-
tons. although the latter interests
have bought about 100000 tons in the
last ten days. II is an interesting fact
that several of the mills of the United
States Steel Corporation are now able
TO roll she'll steel bars up to nine
inches. This is a manufacturing feat.
Until within the last two months seven
inch rounds were the largest that
could he rolled All the larger shells
were necessarily made from forglngs.
Russian government agents have
closed additional contracts for rails
with American mills. Recent negotla-
tons nave been for 10000 TO 10000
tons. About half Of this tonnage has
been secured, making total Russian
purchases of rails and track supplies
475.000 tons. The rails are understood
TO have brought $50 per ton seaboard.
France is actively negotiating for So
coo tons Of rails. French purchases OF
American rails in the last nine months
have been between 100000 and 100000
tons. Italy is inquiring for 10000
tons new rails and for 10000 tons OF
old sections. Italian interests also are
urgently in this market for 10000 tons
Of low phosphorus iron, for 500 tons of
ferro- manganese and for 1000 tons of
spiegeleisen.
Prices current for few of the prin-
cipal metals and metal products, com
pared with those prevailing at the cor
responding time of last year, follow:
