New Orleans Cotton.
December

New Orleans, Jan. 29.-W hlle there was selling pressure in the early trading in cotton today the market steadied later on fresh buying for long account, recovered it's losses and moved up to net advances. Price changes were not wide at any stage of the session and the close was 5 points down to 5 points up net tor the day.
 Around the opening the m&rk ct was nervous and unsettled, despite a very good Liverpool. Selling was encouraged by better weather over the belt and by the pessimistic view taken of the money situation. :.
 Reports of broader business in the spot department and the recov- cries in foreign exchange commences to help the market to gradual i'm provement.
 In the spot market transactions were put through in both low and high grades and one lot of long staple cotton was sold at 90 cents a pound, new high price for this ma rke.

As time went on we became more confident. of the success, attending our efforts at reconstructing our life. This was frequently proved to our happy satisfaction by the indul- gence of pleasantrias at the expense of the life that had been. We had approached things cautiously at first. but, findings TO 05sdangers. Turk ing there, grew b0lder. And this is a thing can recommend in, practical ly any situation. We found it em- inently successful.
 I once had professor who told us of the psychological effect of ridi- culing ones difficulties.
 "Laugh at the things that bother you," was his advice. Make fun of the difficulties that beset your path. Belittle them scorn them' jeer at them, and they will disap- pear. Also as their strength dimin- ishes under the attack your own ing always"
 All of which is true enough for the individual. How it succeeds with two individuals can only be ascer- tained by putting it to the test.
 We had many laugh in this way: Crittenden and I, who had learned to laugh at the difficulties which we now told ourselves had been eradi- cated, or, rather, left behind. It be- came the special delight of each to ridicule the things for which he or she had been responsible. I trust am not boastful when I say that Crittenden had more fun out of this than I.
 Crittenden hurt his finger one day, pinched it badly in closing the window. He came to me and bandaged it.

EARLY DECLINE IN
 COTTON MARKET lS
 FOLLOWED BY RISE

New York, Jan. 29.--An early de- cline was followed by rallies in the cotton market today. New crop months were relatively easy. how ever, and there were reactions in the late trading, with the general list closing 20 points higher to 22 points lower The firmness of Liverpool seemed to make very little impression at the opening. Liverpool was buyer but there was consider able scattered selling for southern account as well as some pressure from loca land Wall street sources This decline reflected continues ner- vousness over the money market and general conditions by the offer
 ings were comparative light and the absorption of old crop contracts by Liverpool buyers during the early sessions seem to leave the maiket in a firmcr technical conditions. or ferings were lighter during the mid dle of the day and prices advanced rather sharply on covering. There was selling of the new crop months by houses with southwestern con nections which prevented response to the near months strength and the whole list slipped off several points in the late trading when the lmmc- diate demand from shorts appeared to have been supplied, while there may have been some liquidation on the advance in call money rates.

 Then he laughed in genuine en- joyment.
 "You were a silly boy, Critten- den," I agreed. "But I did things that were silly. So, you were not alone in your foolishness."
 But I did crazier things than you and more of them," he insisted. Nov if you don't think this was a de- parture for Crittenden, to admit things like that, you don't know him yet. But I appreciated just what it meant, for I was fully aware tha this way was to admit nothing, to demand everything, to override ali objections, to crash through. For he was Hayes of Kentucky like his father was before him. His natural tendency, without the supreme ef- i feet he was making at last, was to make me "yes, dear" wife as his mother had been to her great sor- row.

 "One cannot describe the need of immediate relief" declared Secretary Glass, reciting conditions related to him by American officials just back from Europe. "This relief is the humanitarian and safe thing to do It is the plain, practical common sense thing to do, even if we don't get the money back. But we hope to get some of it back.
 "Men, women and children, cspec- IiaIly children, are dying by the thousands. One man, just returned from Europe saw 27 bodies lying un- buried in street in an Austrian city"
