MY FIRST SHAVE

strong as wire by the time the first safety razors were offered for sale.
 Tn many previous efforts to shave myself with the old-fashioned razors I had cut my face often, and spent sc much money for honing that I gave il up and returned to the barber every day for years. I also tried many SO
 called safety razors" They would not cut the beard but uld cut my fact in several places,' besides making tht skin sore through scraping of the blades which were set at right angles with the handle. So I again gave ul the idea of shaving myself until 2 friend induced me to try the Durham Duplex, a-reaI safety razor, one with long double edged blade, set in reg ular old fashioned razor way, with c proper guard, so I could shave with
 an eblique stroke without cutting the
 skin. That shave was a comfort an6
 delight.
 l Thousands of barbers, some good ano
 many bad, have tortured my face foi years. The best of them never gave
 me such a light clean shave, and now
 I'm a convert to the Durham Duplex | for the rest of my days.

RULE NUMBER ONE
By Edmund Vance Cooke.

This is the faith bring you, This is the hymn sing to you, No matter what you preach, or where you pray; There is no lasting victory, No final valedictory;;- You've got to save your soul every day. There is ancient patitude, No formal fearing attitude, Will save you from the bumps along the way; No philtre or phylactery Is safe or satisfactory You've got to save your own soul every day. Nor is there much security In some remote futurty Some dead dull heaven where pallid angels play What were a mere vacuty Of torpid ambiguity,
 Which did not save it's own soul every day?

 Come tricking down to feed the river, That sing unheard Save by poet and bird
 Each little gver
 To the great river The Seine and the Thames Have lordly flames,

 And knows Would I could make A song for their sake, But I myself go singing unheard, Save once in a while by poet and bird.-Richard Lee Gaienne in Harper's Magazine

The Exchange Situation

1.-The exchange situation is attracting
like a speculative feature to their pur-
chases." said NJ. II. Sterne, Of Ward,
Sterne and company. Due to the dis
count on foreign exchange, securities
can be purchased at prices that will
pay good rate of interest and at the
same time offer an unusual prospect
for enhancement of principal.
? can investment in French govern
ment securities is outlined to show
what the proposition is:
Francs normally worth 1913 cents, are
now selling about 12K cents. For that
reason. 1000 franc French government
per cent loan of 1917 can now be
purchased for about 800. The bond
will pay a return Of 40 francs per an
mum, (being free from all present or
future French taxation) which would
be about $500 a year at present ex-
change rate. In addition. there is an
opportunity for an enhancement in the
value of the investment up to 1913.
which the bond would be worth if sold
at par with exchange at the normal
figure.
.The discount on pounds is not nearly
so large as on francs, but is still large
enough to offer good field for specula-
ton.
"A new speculation that has develop
ed in Wall street, according to the Wall
Street Journal. is the purchase Of calls
for 100000 German marks, good for
nine months, for $3.50 the call price be-
ing 5% cents against the present rate
of about ~ cents. Each cent advance
above 5% cents means $1,000 profit"

COTTON DROPS MORE

CONDITION REPORT
General List Closed Steady
at a Net Decline of IS
to 80 Points Under
Last Week

New York, September 1.-THE gov
eminent crop report was followed by
a very sharp break in the cotton mar
ket today. December contracts sold
off from 52.20c to $4,000, or more than
cent a pound below the closing price
of last Friday, but at this level there
was some trade buying and there were
rallies on covering. December closed
at 31.17c, with the general list clos
ing steady at net decline of IS to 80
points.
The government report making the
condition ola and the indicated crop
11,230,000 bales was very closely in
line with private reports recently is
sued and the general expectation of
the trade. Its publication, however,
removed an uncertainty which had
probably restricted selling previously.
and the moment the figures appeared
offerings became heavy.
The early market showed consider
able firmness. Liverpool was reia-
lively easy over the local holiday AMI
the weather map was favorable, but
after opening IL to II points higher,
the market here sold about 20 to IS
points above last Fridays closing fig

ket encouraged the more OPTIMISTIC
view of labor conditions. and there was
probably some buying on a possibility
that the government report would
prove more bullish than generally an
ticipated. January sold up to 32.15o

predictions of heavy hedge selling

of some Is to IS points from the early
