COTTON WENT TO
NEW LOW LEVELS
Toward End of Week, However, Market
Recuperated and Reactions Occurred
New Orleans, Dec. 26 --Decline of
the last week sent the price of cotton
to new low levels for the season, but
toward the end there were evidences
that the market was gaining good re
cuperative power and there were peri
ods during which substantial reactions
occurred. Liquidation of long con
tracts, hedge selling on a large scale
and offerings for short account from
traders, were unfavorably impressed
by the breaks in the stock market aid
by the failure in this country and
broad. 'were responsible for the down
ward movement of values. At the
lowest levels. the trading montlis were
at net declines of S4 to 151 points, with
January down to 12.79 and July dowr
to 13,.-5. January closed at 1:3.62 anw
Juily at 14.20. in the net result in the
spot market middling lost 75 points.
closing at 1-4.00. Contracts closed
to 6S net lower.
This wveek. the market is bound to
bo influenced more or less hy the ll
idays and most market circulars o~
this last week-end reflected the opin
ion that trading would probably slow
down somewhat.

A Happy New Year Letter To All
DifAR. SIR:
In a navei-v. ;In el, t hey are all grumblers---that makes
Hell. Grumbling is tne' vivhrasteristie that belongs to universal humanity. The first man in the Garden
of Edeni had every' want fulfilled, had every privilege accorded to him, but the eating of the fruit of one
Iree. le grimble'd heause he did not have that, and his grumbling eost him Paradise.
Ihe first thing a baby does is to raise a howl and make a kick. We are all born kickers--Nobody
likes his bisiness, no mat Ir what that business is. To hear men talk, they are all losing money. The dry
"'ods manl say5 bliness iN not what it used to be, he is losing money every year; he wears fine clothes
his wife wears diamonds; tthey own their own automobile, and have a cottage by the sea-side;--still he
S losing money. It i the saie with the doctors, the lawyers, and men in every profession. Then, the
farmler, the man you think would be content, is the greatest grumnbler of them all. If the season is dry,
We will not make se d this year;" if the Heavens pour abundance and the barns burst, "We will not get
anything for our stiuli, there is no use having it." Nobody wants his son to follow the same line of busi
ness. There are grumblers in every vocation and loca tionl. There are more grumniblers in the home than any.

You say it is a hard lot to b shut up within r-' k walls, that it would be delightful to get off some
where and enjoy 'resh viands and pure a:ir. You -when you get there, the place is beastly, the peo
ple ai:e then most vulgiair you ever saw, the food is stale, the little room where they have put you is an old
garret, id you just wish you had stayed at home, and so does every one else.
Everybody know. how a work ought to he (lone, except the poor wrtehes who are doing it. Is it not
stranfe, that as you improve. everybody else and everything else seems to improve at the same time?
IHerei are some prescriptions for ehronic grumbling:-Try to live right. The best way in the world
to lbe sweet-spirited and gentle is to live right. When David was not living right, he was ready to kill
the man who had slain a little l-amb; lie himself had taken another man's wife, and killed tile man besides
-that made him savage. Live right:---aud you will have the charity, that suffereth long and is kind.
Have the home as beautiful as you (an make it. If you are a husband, praise your wife, praise her looks
OVen if she is rather homely. Praise her eooking though it choke you. Give her the sam1e love-like at.
