In Which Betty Blake Gets a Shock.
Fifteen minutes had hardly passed
since the little room witness "a the
metamorphosis of Jim Bruel, when the
stiffness was broken by a second
knocking on the door. No response
was forthcoming and Miss Betty Blake,
like the uneererhonious young person
she was, called impatiently:
"Jiml 1 say-ohl Jim!" Then in
absence of any reply to her hail. she
threw open the door and hustled in
side. It needed but glance to con-
vince her the room was unoccupied,
and muttering her Impotence she sat
down to await Bruel's coming.
Now it CHANGED that above all things
Betty Blake disliked waiting. espe-
peially waiting for Jim Bruel. Perhaps
that was because in certain other
matter Jim had kept her waiting so
long that hope and patience were near
to running out together. She had
watchfully waited for Bruel to perfect
his storage battery, set some Of the
worlds miscellaneous affairs in order,
and then perhaps find time to make the
momentous discovery that there was
another sex in the world-and that a
certain representative of that sex car
ed not q snap of her fingers for per-
feet storage batteries for the affairs
Of The world or for anything except to
be looked upon by Jim Bruel as d bit
more important TO his happiness than
any of he things that had engrossed
his mind since the days when they
went hand in hand to school.
Betty lake was born and raised in
Millva1e, within a stones throw of the
little cottage where Jim and his moth
er lived As children they had been
inseparable. When, IN the mimic war
fare of childhood Bruel held the snow
. fort against a half dozen others. Betty
Blake was his faithful ally. She It
was who, after a hand-to-hand tussle
with the school bully, bound up Bruels
wounds. They had studied from the
same books and held one hymnal at
prayer meeting. With the coming of
womanhood. this childish friendship
had ripened to more tender form in
Befty's heart Bruel was +he constant
tenant OF all her dream castles. But
to him. Betty Blake had never grown
up. She was still, an promised al
ways to be. the same faithful comrade
he had always known.
Bruel's complete absorption IN his
battery may have been partly account
able for his failure to realize tt; t
Betty had become woman; but nn
dourtedly this lack of perception was
In some measure also due to the fact
that Betty still was as careless Of her
! own appearance as In the days when

WEEKLY REVIEW OF
 THE COTTON MARKET
Good Demand and Drouth Put Prices Up 20 to 25 Points-- Trade Uncertain as to Effect oi the Mexican Situation.

New Orleans. La., March l9-Mod- crate advances resulted from a good inquiry for the actual cotton in the market here last week. Drouth in the vest also was a bullish influence, but the market was held down to small gains because of the constant appear ance of the bearish rumors regarding foreign affairs. On the opening ses- sion of the week prices fell to points below the level of the previous weeks close. From this there was a recovery and advance which carried the trading months % to g points above the preceding weeks final quo- tations The close was at net gain of 20 to 25 points.
 Almost all sections of the belt re- ported spot cotton in demand, with prices showing an upward tendency. Locally spot prices went above the level of contracts, middhng on Thurs day being advanced to 1l.94c. while the March option at it's best that day touched 11.64.
 The market almost constantly felt the weight of unfavorable rumors and reports concerning international poli- tics. The trade apparently was un- certain as to the effect of the Mexican situation. This week the Mexican news, the developments around Yer dun and anything relating to the sup posed negotiations between Turkey and the allies probably will have a quick influence on prices.

1t is hard to preserve the figures of a
