ed to Mr.. Hart and asked:
why are you sorry for me-
"Why-what do you mean?" his
confusion evident.
Just what L say. Why are you
sorry for me? L know you are"
'Oh, no! 1 am sure you have no
need of pity" He had recovered him

Then why do YOU always look at
me with pity in your eyes,

Then my eyes must express some
aim to say nothing more.
After this l noticed he carefully

or feeling. She seemed not so gay.
and l either imagined it or she avoid
ed being alone with Frank. Could
they have quarreled, l wondered. Her
manner toward me carried a timidity
foreign to all our association. She
seemed to be apologizing for some
thing she could not help. l wondered
il she felt out of place in thiS-a so
much more elegant-home than she
had in the one [ had occupied when

might account for the change, and

that there had been no slightest diff

Then it happened. The elusive

cal bureau of H. T. Bachman 4 Co., of
New York report No. J. for 1919, says:
' take pleasure i'll submitting herewith
the first report of our Watkins bureau for
the season 1920. Supplementary investi-
cations will be made, monthly during the
season in advance of the usual government
reports. The indicated area to be planted
in cotton this year is 31.177,00O acres, com
pared with 37,073,000 acres planted last
year, decrease of 1913 per cent. Allow ing
l per cent for abandonment and applying
this acreage to the average yield per acre
for the past ten years of 1907 pounds the
pdica ted crop would be IL ,320, 600 bales.
Should weather conditions during the season
prove better or worse than the ten-year av-
crage the crop may be increased or de-
creased accordingly. The indicated crop
rived at by us in March, using this method
of calculation, for the past four years has
always proved III excess of the actual crop,
with the single exception of 1915, when our
March estimate approXima tely the same
as the actual crop Outturn.

GRAIN

CHICAGO, April 3.-Fresh advances IN
the price of corn took place today owing
more or less to predictions that there would
not be any big accumulation of corn here
before September. On the bulges, however,
commission houses displayed an increased
tendency to sell. Trade was fairly active.
Opening prices, which ranged from &c off
to 1c advance with May $1.5S to $1.5S&
and July 81 .451a to 81 .46 were followed by
moderate general gains, and then by a sharp
but transient setback.
Announcement later than permits for rail-
way shipments of grain to primary markets
had been abolished followed by another
sharp decline. The fact developed, however.
that permits for export shipments to the
seaboard were still Ia requisite. The close
was unsettled IA net lower TO Hc advance,
with May 81 .55M to S1.557s and July
81 .451a to 81 .45&.
Oats hardened with corn.
Higher quotations on hogs lifted pork and
ribs to the maximum

COTTON

NEW YORK, April 3.-The cotton mar
ket showed renewed strength this morn
ing owing to the continued tirmness of Liv-
crpool which reported the largest spot bust
ness in months, unfavorable weather con-
ditons in the south and increa sing exports.
There appeared OF be feeling that the
strength in Liverpool reflected more
hopeful view of prospects for an early
contamination of peace, and the advance
here also was encouraged by reports of
increasing mil lactivity a Fall River.
The opening was steady at an advance of
5 to Is points on old and of 10 to q points
on new style months, with new style May
selling at 26.0O and October at 2155 or
81 to 40 points net higher during the early
trading. New style opened 65 points higher,
selling at 22.4O.
The early advance to $500 for May and
2155 for October or 81 to 40 points above
last nights closing figures met a good
deal of realizing and there was also scat
tered selling for reaction later IL the morn
ing. Offerings were well enough absorbed
by trade buying and a further broadening
of commission house demand to give prices
a steady tone but the market showed re-
actions of 10 20 80 points around midday.
Reports that the French foreign minister
expected peace preliminaries to be COM
pleted before Easter promoted another furry
Of buying in the afternoon but prices did not
quite recover TO the early, high Level ana
