COTTON SUFFERS

NEW YORK. March 4-There was
a further decline in the local cotton
market today. 1t was sympathetic
with the further decline in sterling

The factors contributed to unsettle
the market and caused considerable
further liquidation. 1t was mostly

among the foolish human
clan he really stands alone. Far
uack in eighteen forty-two he
vowed he would forget all dismal
sights that came in view, all wor-
ry, care and fret. Said Bill: Il
know that up to now I've not ac-
Complished much; I've worn a

cned every day and worried fit to
kill. But now, I've turned a BRAN
new leaf; I'll try another tack, and
on each growing gloom and grief
I'll always turn my back" Bill
Smithers stuck to his resolve, and
from that very day YOU should
have seen his cares dissolve, his
troubles fade away. Where once
his life had been a mess of things
to fret about, filled up with bother
and distress, with measles, mumps
and govt, ii now is like a holiday
with song and fragrant bowers; for
him each month is fair as May and
weeds have turned to flowers.

MAKING OF A MAN


But the serious matter for all
us parents is this: Our hlgh
schools everywhere are filled with
"Fattys." They are not usually
so big and overgrown as the boy
here mentioned, but they are
quite as soft, as weak and as in
active as he was at fifteen. The
lack Of stamina in the body is n
sure index of the lack OF the
same thing in the mind and
morals
Your boy cannot be studious,
brave, honest. self-reliant or pro-
gressive in spirit so long AS he
is housed in a sluggish, under
developed physique. A virile mind
must have a virile body to work
in. Morals during youth are part
ly a matter of muscles. Soft, I'M
exercised tissues are a sure index
of a stupid mind and a negative
IL not a positive immortality.
We have here evolved one OF
the most trying aspects of modern
parenthood. With the old wood
yard gone, not a wheel to turn
or perhaps not even a hod Of coal
to carry, the ordinary city boy
is made the victim of a vicious
influence of our refined civiliza-
alton.
This typical big softly is not to
blame for himself. He does not
even know what 1t is to feel
strong, morally courageous and
mentally alert. for he has no ma
ture muscular tissue within his
under-exercised body and thus is
unable to speak to a properly
aspiring soul.
But what practical thing is in
sight for relief of the WEAKNESS
of the soft flesh Of youth?
Eight hours Of common labor
on Saturday would be a blessing
for every common high school
youth. Through such a course
he could combine health, morals,
mind improvement, vocational
training, and thrift.
A woodpile and bucksaw
would be fine present for a soft
boy, provided you could induce
him to sweat out his baby flesh
one hour per day with ease.

pleasure; but now, with his old
friends beside him and the
thoughts which their coming had
brought, the sharing of her glory
for the first time began to cloud
his mind. He was a strong man,
and had dreamed dreams. Ought
he not to make glory for her in
stead Of being contentent to share
that which she had so hardly
earned?
The next morning he babe her
good-by for three months, and went
thoughtfully to his shoe and leath-
er office. 1t was now a good time.
The manager could look after the
business. He would throw himself
into the thing Of which he had
dreamed, with his full strength,
When she returned the glory of 1t
should be hers.
Both of his friends were now on
a Western syndicate of news
papers, and soon they began to
see paragraphs that made them
look pleased and thoughtful.
Look here, Allen" exclaimed
the college man one day, as he
raised his glance from an item, do
you suppose what we said in the
theater that evening had anything
to do with his skyrocketing? He
seemed so hopelessly buried in his
shoe and leather business, you
known"
Certainly not, decidedly. Bouck
is too strong man not to come
up Of himself when ready. What
little you and l might say wouldn't
matter. But this thing of his is
rather Quixotic, don't you think,

the ideal lover.
The Woodworking, straight-fOr-

hasn't much chance to study the
gentle art of love making. He
doesn't cultivate charm. He doesn't

The man who has respect for
women and himself can't feel that
il is worth while to spend his days
studying methods of stimulating
emotion. He isn't observed by
desire to fed his own vanity or to
appeal to his jaded appetltes.
The worthwhile man likes folks.
He wants friendship from the
world. He demands respect. He
is simple and honest and direct in
his dealings.
When an earnest, ambitious,
fine-principled man who is devoted
to his mother and sisters meets
women, he approaches them sim

kept it up. 1t was at first almost

been torn out and carried away by
the exercise, while new solid one
has been built in.
