FIRST BALE SOLD IN TEXAS. First Bale of New Cotton Sold Mon day at Houston, Texas, for |1,01S. The Earlie&t On Record. Houston, Tex., June 12.? Establish ing a new record by eleven days for the first appearance -of the new cotton crop, a bale of Cameron coun ty staple was sold on the Houston Cotton Exchange to-daj. It grew on the farm of Ernest Matz. Part of the bale's journey from Cameron County to Houston was made on a special train because It was reported other "first bales" were on their way to the exchange. ? The cotton was sold at $2.0f>.84 a pound, the total weight being 493 pounds and the price $1,016. This was the highest price ever paid on the Houston exchange for a bale of cot ton. It was classed as strict mid dling in Memory of Little Loomls Brady. On the night of May 30th, Just as a pew day dawned, God's angels <ami) into the home of Mr. and Mrs. It. B. Hrady and bore away the gen tle spirit of their darling baby Loom to join the heavenly host to make leaven brighter and nearer to fa ther, mother, brothers and sisters. We did not think him so serious un til Monday, as the sun rose, he was struck with a hard convulsion and we didn't think he was con scious any more. He grew worse and worse and suffered the most agonizing pain that his precious lit tle form could endure till Jesus said, come to my arms my little one. where I can shelter you from the storms of the desert for ho was too good and tender to brave the tem pest. Oh! It was heart-breaking to have to give him up; he was the pride of our homo and the roam is so empty without the cradle. Our Uome is so lonely without little I-ioomls. We long to see your bright beaming, smiling little face which every one loved so much but <!od loved you belter than we, and we know you are safe in the arms of JesuB and some day we'll understand. We would not call him back but some day we can and must go to see htm. If we only trust God and do his will. Uod help us to keep our eyes on Jesus and be consecrat ed to his service. 1.it tie l^oomls Is gone, Uod planted htm a star to brighten our way heavenward. All that loving mother, father, bro there and sister, friends and physi cians could do was only to give some little comfort here for we know he was bound to die. Loom in was a year and 18 days old, so cute and cunning in his little ways, but the clearest ones must part on earth to meet in heaven and we know when we have loved ones there that hea ven is dearer and sweeter. So good bye, darling baby, mother wants you to meet her first at the pearly gates. So sad, sad the parting here. So sweet, sweet will be the meeting there, when we meet around the great white throne.

I do not believe In the doctrine that If you want to make your wife happy all yon lia.e to do i? to give her plenty of wouey. 1 do not believe that |HWsession of money and happiness are synonj mo us Women want love flint of all If they are provided with the right Instinct*. The great problem of today Is the making of money. It is unques tionably the occuputlou that en gages the minds of the vast ma jority of people. lJut from what I have seen of life and those leading It when one has obtain ed a competency money Is ?u l>ertluous, Just like an excess of what Is not needed to round out the figure and give It a hand some appearance. Piling up wealth then becomes like piling on Hosh and greatly hinders the enjoyment of the lx>st things of this life.?John Burroughs. Standard Oil'* Wealth.

The essence of marriage is com panionship, and the woman you face across the coffee urn every morning for years must be both able to appreciate your Jokes and to sympathize with your aspira tions.
