the necessities for camp life and go
either to some northern Minnesota or
Wisconsin lake or to the Rocky noun
tains. This year they are planning
a trip to Wyoming, and the camping
outfit, thanks to Mr.. Whites nimble
fingers. is almost completed. The
White family are, as you may imagine,
lovers of the great out-of-doors, and
on these trips they pitch their tents
and sleep out under the stars every
night, being entirely independent OF
hotel accommodations and the cook
ing characteristic of country town
hotels, as well as the hot and dusty
trains filed at this season with crowds
of tourists.
Just another example of the back
to-nature call, and most delightful
suggestion for other out-of-door
and fresh-air fends which may prove
especially interesting to the business

eleven months out of the twelve.
Louis St. Cyr, veteran box Office
man at the Orpheum theater, has a
hobby of collecting relics and curios.
Some are grewsome and others are

A nurse may have a hobby just
as we'll as any regular human being.
Miss Bessie Randall, superintendent
of the Visiting Nurse Association OF
Omaha has hobby and she is proud
of it. Her hobby is concentration.
She uses her leisure moments study
ing concentration. Il have learned
that my reading was faulty because
/ did not concentrate and that when
in conversation | did not get the
most out of it because | did not con-
centrate as much as !, should have
done. Concentration strengthens the
memory" stated Miss Randall. In
memorizing the spelling and meaning
OF words she finds that concentra-
ton is helping her considerably. To
get the best out of life, she says,
one should concentrate all faculties,
whether at work or play.

Even Caesar did not start life with
an ambition to be soldier, much less
an emperor.
Few boys nurse the ambition to be-
come what fate finally kicks them
into. Why, Caesar carved himself out
for oratory, rather than warfare. 1t
was because he sailed for Rhodes to
study oratory under Apollonius Molo
that he got switched off into fields of
war. Pirates snatched him from the
high seas and held him for ransom.
Caesar always had temper, so he
swore, believe me, guys, when | get
my liberty, | will have you all cruel
fed"
They laughed, His ransom was
finally paid, and as soon as he got
ashore he forgot all about his orator
ical ambitions, but instead Quilted
some ships, overlook the pirates and
spiked them hand and foot to the
clumsiest wooden crosses he could
hastily improvise.

An Old Trunk.

An Old Trunk.
Did you ever delve into an old
trunk in attic or in basement! What
tragedy and comedy, what reminls-
cences and tender memories are as
ISOLATED with the nondescript contents
of that battered old receptacle! AS
you open the old trunk your thoughts
revert back to days of childhood, or
youth, or perhaps some later period
OF life, as the case may be.
A pair of infants shoes come TO
view. Your feet, which now are
vexed by corns, ONCE wore those tiny
shoes. In them one eventful day
you wandered away from home to see
the wide, wide world alone. You
looked into the wonderful windows
of stores, with their wealth of candy
and cakes and toys. In this world
of childish imagination you lost all
sense OF direction. On and on you
travelled until the world of reality
grew dark and your feet were tired.
Suddenly you thought OF mother and
you began to cry. A man asked II
you were lost and you shook your
head negatively. He took you by the
hand and gave you nickle. After
a while your mother appeared on the
scene; she picked you up, kissed you
and exclaimed: WAS my little boy
lost?" And your mother saved the
little shoes, that some day you might
find them in an old trunk and re-
member the day when you were lost
in this wide, wide world.
You rummage through the trunk
again and your hand touches a time
worn autograph album, filed with en-
dearing sentiments and light-hearted
expressions, inscribed by the boys and
girls OF yesterday.
"Your album is a pleasant spot in
which to write forget me not" That
was written by May. Remember the
time you took her to circus and told
her the jokes about the CRATES long
neck and the elephants trunk? And
she asked you TO show her the blind
tiger, and the animal man said they
were just out of blind tigers, but they
had some dandy lions.
my pen is poor, my ink is pale,
but my love for you shall never fail." =.
And this one: Roses are red, violets
are blue; sugar is wect, and so are
you." And you recall the lines:
"How dear to this heart are the
scenes OF my childhood. when fond
recollection presents them to view"

New York Cotton.

New York, Nov. 19.-The cotton mar ket showed renewed firmness early today with active months making new high records for the season. It seem cd the recent heavy liquidation had strengthened. the technical positian and there were; comparatively few contracts offering during the. searly trading. This 4n itself reflocting an absence of southern hedging as well as asbetter lfqdfdated position, serv- cd to inspire buying and after opening firm at an advance of 25 to 38 points active positions sold 25 to '3Ss points net higher with January touching 27.S1 and March 27.62. Trade inted- ests were active buyers on the ad- vance and there was active buying by houses with Liverpol connections.
 Increased southern hedging, local realizing and selling for reaction brought about "a somewhat .(sasier feeling at midday, prices losing about half the early advance with January at PHYS. Southern spot advices re- ported strong basis, large demand and sellers reluctant.

DRAFTED ARMY IS
 A DEMOCRATIC BODY
When the Khaki Is Donned They Look Alike and Are Brothers to
 All Men.

Little Rock, Ark, Nov. 17.-A draft ed army is about the most Democratic body one could imagine. It is made up of the night and the low, the rich and the poor, and when the khaki is donned they look alike, and are broth CTS to all men. Social caste is un- known among enlisted men. The man who back home was social lion is liable to have as boon companion 8 man who was waiter or news agen. before coming to the camp. True com panionship is the result of such friend ships and there is a mutual benefit in the association.
 It is surprising to see how the men share with each other the good things of life, and how much of these good things the men have not had before coming to camp. Take measles as an instance. If a person has the measles but once, as some physicians claim, then quite a few of those coming to Camp Pike had been deprived of one of life's pleasures. The men have shared the measles with each other at Camp Pike until at times company af- ter company was. in quarantine. At one time there. were almost 1000 men afflicted with the measles, but if a man has to have these infantile trou- bles, there is no better place to have them than in Camp Pike.
 When man is even slightly indis- posed he is turned in on sick call. If 1t is the first intimation of measles, the man is segregated from the oth- CTS, and probably sent to the base hos pital. Here is every convenience known to modern hospitals. The vic tim undergoes treatment under the most favorable circumstances, and with several thousand cases already treated, not one has been accompanied with anything serious, and the men are soon back with their companies.

Chicago Grain.

Chicago, Nov. 19.-C0rn eased down in price today, influenced by an im- provement in the quality of spot of- ferings and by prospects of enlarge ed arrivals. eBsides. the government report on frost damage to corn was construed as bearish. The official es. innate of the crop was said to con tain a larger per cent of good corn than had been generally figured on. Opening quotations which ranged from IS to 1-4c' lower with January $l.17 and May. $1.15 3.8 to 1-2. were followed by moderate setback.
 No important reaction developed. Bulls were handicapped by something of an increase in stocks here and at other leading points. The close was steady, IA to 7-8c net lower with January $1.16 31S to $1.16 1-2 and May $1.55 IA to 3-S.
 Oats sagged with corn. Shipping demand was slow. Downturns in the value of hogs weakened provisions. Pork led the decline.
