Cotton,

The cotton market showed increasing
strength and activity yesterday, with
all deliveries making new high records
for the season. Nlarcn contracts, for
instance, sold up to 3169, or SO points
above Mondays closing prices, and
closed at 31.59. Other months closed
at net advance Of II to 43 points.
The more optimistic view of peace pos
sibilities, which has been more or less
in evidence for the last several days,
appeared to he strengthened by the
definite outline of Allied peace terms
in tho Presidents address to Congress,
and the highest prices of the day were
touched during the afternoon. Selling
for profits caused reaction later, but
there was good demand on the dips,
and the close was within 8 or 10 points
Of the best
from the beginning, owing to the
strong average Of spot advices, re-
ncwcd trade buying and the continued
dry weather in the Southwest. After
opening l 70 "A points higher, prices
reacted several points under scattered
selling, part Of which was supposed to
be liquidation OF hedges against pur
chascs OF spot cotton in the South on
Monday. The offerings were soon alb
sorbed, however, with the buying ac-
companoG by reports that New Eng
land spinncrs were fixing prices free
ly, and inc demand broadencd on the
announcement OF Allied peace terms
in Washington. Exports fo, the day
were 21,l55 bales, making 2,141,52S so
far this season. Southern spot mar
kets. officially reported, were un-
changed, to SO points higher, generally
25 10 so points higher, with continued
good volume Of business.

Of business was small and the same

about some sort OF peace move. and
1t was the consensus OF opinion that
anything of this kind would have 1t

CLEVER RUSE

He had been married about year
and had taken to spending his even
ings downtown with the boys. One
night his conscience worried him and
he thought he would phone his wife
and get her to come down to meet
him and have dinner with him. So
he called her up.
"Hello, kid" he began. "Say, slip
on some old clothes and come down
and meet me on the quiet. Well
have a good dinner and then we'll
get machine and smear little red
paint around. How about it?
an be delighted to join you,
Jack" was the reply. "But why not
come up to the house and get me?
There's nobody homer
AS the young husbands name is
Tom, he spends his evenings at home
now.
And his wife wears a queer little
smile when he isn't looking at her.
