cember. 29.49.
There was renewal Of yesterdays
buying movement at the opening of the
market today. with first prices steady
at an advance of 6 to IL points. High
er Liverpool cables. the absence of
March notices and reports that large
orders for cotton duck were pending in
the goods trade for Navy purposes
were factors on the advance. At 31.24
for May and 30.S4 for July, however.
the market met good deal of real
izfng, while there was scattered south
ern and local selling. which appeared
to be inspired by better prospects for
rain in the southwest. Prices soon
reacted. with the more active deliver
les selling to 10 points lower before
the end of the first hour
NEW ORLEANS, February 27-Cot-
ton opened steady. Opening bid: March.
3015: May. 30.12: July, 29.70; October,
2S.75 asked; December, 2s.52
Lack of rain in Texas lifted the price
of cotton to points around the open
ing of the market here today, but re-
ports of another price-fixing bill in
Congress caused a selling wave soon
after the opening. At the end of the
first half-hour prices were 10 Ito 10
points under yesterdays close.
The selling movement continued until
prices were 80 to 35 points down net.
Toward noon a fresh demand was met
and the market reacted 20 points from
the bottom.

Conservatives OFFENDED

If this development is to bear fruit
good will on all sides is an essential
condition. The vice chancellor's speech
offended the conservative sections of
the reichstag seriously, judging from
the comment upon the address in a
Berlin dispatch to the Koelnische
Volks Zeitung, which says:
1T was known that Won Payer desired
to settle accounts with the conserva-
tives and he did SO perhaps more than
1t was good for him to do. A passion
ate outbreak accompanied this part of
his speech from all the conservative
sections of the reichstag. That Won
Payer should have put these political
groups on the same level with trait
ors like Liebknecht and Dittman ESQ.,
cialist leaders imprisoned on charges
Of melting treason), and with those
who fomented the traitorous strike,
provoked tremendous outbreaks of pas
sion on the entire right.
There were frequent scenes OF
tumult, seriously interrupting the de-
livery OF the speech, and at it's close
his friends were fain to drown the
misses in the house and in the gall
leries by clapping and shouting"

OKLAHOMA SCHOOLS WILL
 MEET ARKANSAS STANDARD

Fayetteville, Feb. 8.-Several SUI perintendents of schools in Eastern Oklahoma are taking advantage of the Bureau of Educational Research of the University of Arkansas and are joining with school superinten- dents in Arkansas in staudardizing their schools. The fact that schools in Eastern Oklahoma will be stand ardized will be a decided advantage to Arkansas teachers for it will mean that the class of work done in the schools of both states will become more nearly the same. Grad uates of the University of Arkansas who take schools in Oklahoma will thus be quite familiar with standards that prevail in those schools and the methods by which they may be attained

New York, Feb. 6-The shops are showing such bright hued frocks and suits. the materials are so gay and springiIke, one almost forgets the bitter cold weather we are having at the present time It would seem that the very colors of the materials were doing their best to make us forget the gray war cloud that hangs over US If we must have clothes, let them at least be gay Trimmings we can forego, wool be sparingly used, but the example of Paris, Paris in wartime. has shown us clearly where our duty lies. Never have there been such fascinatingly simple nodes Perhaps it is the coquette in the woman which makes it necessary for her to prove she is as fascinating in calico as in velvet; perhaps the motive is deeper one: st any rate there are new and be- coming styles, styles that improve the appearance on account of their very simplicity.

SAGE AND SULPHUR
 DARKENS GRAY HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe to Restore Color, Gloss
 and Attractiveness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur. properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and trouble some. Nowadays. by asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound" you will get a large bottle of this famous old recipe, im- proved by the addition of other tn- gredients, at a small cost.
 Don't stay grayi Try it! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does 1t so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears. and after another ap- pl.cation or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark. glossy and attractive.
 Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire dark hair and youthful appearance. If is not i'm tended for the cure. mitigation or pre- vention of disease.

de chine or Georgette crepes are the favored materials for the most part, and every detail is carefully studied. Braiding is effectively used on these simple frocks. Braiding in narrow stoutache, very flat and artistically arranged Sometimes there are pan els on the skirt, side panels with large designs placed near the hem. Sometimes the waist has braiding on the collar with perhaps a touch of hand embroidery to embrace the effect. We look to Washington for our examples in things of national importance and we find our answers there
 Clingingly feminine are the new modes, so the materials chosen must, of necessity, be soft and clinging. Foulards crepe de chimes and Jap anese silks are the fayorites. The designs in the foulards are rather more interesting than those of other years. The combination of colors. too. are more artistic, for America have devoted much time and study to dyes. and the results are very sue cessful The model illustrated here is of creamy yellow foulard with a Chinese blue figure in it. The inter- esting collar. buttoning onto the belt, and the Cdd cuff arrangement are of the same shade of blue in heavy sat in The skirt is caught up in the back with two rather wide tucks to give the hustle effect.

Of course, whole dresses are made of this crisp ma terial. dresses for morning. afternoon and evening, depending on the way they are trimmed for their place in the fashionable wardrobe.
