Indian Gamesters.

Although the 1ggVe- 81 india do
not operate on the stock market. they
have adopted a unique form Of gam
bling for which the cotton market re
ports are responsible. Every day FIVE
quotations are cabIed from New York
announcing The cotton situation. The
natives looked upon this as a direct
invitation TO them to establish a sim

of gambling. The gambling consists
simply i'll guessing what the five fig

ing nearest to the right amount

Good taste is the conscience Of the
mind. Lowell's definition is compact

Good taste is q trait We all agree in
valuing though its meaning as a rule
Is rather vaguely felt; we urge its cul-
tivation and admire its exercise but
the quality itself is generally less
analyzed han desired.-Hartley Alex
