Cotton factors advifo farmers to hold
their cotton for higher prices, which

will not bear prices while tho old ui

they must replenish their slock, and
if fanners hold their cotton off tlio
market for u month or two, prices
niU.t advance.

insincere woman does to the man who
loves her. For tho distrust cf her
whole sex which grows upon him and
tho conviction that neither Phe nor
her kind aro woi thy of the best that
is in his nature, she is lcsponsible.
The disdain which lie may feel toward
her cannot greatly injure him. Jiuti
iiiu Spink 111 which tie regains tiie
tendency in his nature which looks
to woman for the truest support of his
life, and tho systematic harden
ing of those finalities in him which
reach out instinctively to the
feminine side of humanity are soul
hurts which aro not healed when the
pain of tho deceived love hao passed.

of tlio woman who lias most deenlv
interested him. Thus it is that tlio ph.
quette, by lowering tlio whole stand
out 01 won.annoou in tiie eyes of man,
injures her own sex as well ns tlm
other.
The forms of ponuolrv nr.- mflnifniv
varied, ami somo of them nro inimh
more vpienensioie than otheis. The
woman who undei takes conquests
simply for the glory of displaying at
the wheels of her chariot the "captive
slio holds by the rosy bonds of love,
is tho commonest type. Ah her eo
quctry is of tlii most patent kind, its
wounds ate rarely severe or lasting,
and yet there is a certain vulgarity
about tliis sphit of conquest which
inakoo this type of women dangerous
to both men and women.
A moresubtlennd dlsastrousintluenco
is wielded by tho worn 111 wlio is bent
on tiie scientific analysis of thovarious
effects produced by the tender passion
on men of different character and 111
ture. She has little pigeon-hole
marked with different ciiamcterlstlo
name:?, and Into these she chv-sillesev-ety
new specimen. Tho co
quette is apt toon to
discover that tho pigeon-holes may be
very few, and that nearly all thu men
she meets will fit exactly into ono or
another of them. When sho lias nr-1
riven at tills conclusion shoisatlslied,
two or thiee good specimens of every
sort having been coolly analyzed nnil
propeily pigeon-holed. It la variety
niul not quantity she desires, and, hav
ing uireauy uccomo quite familiar with
the manner in which a certain specie
of the genus homo is af
fected by the gteatcst of passions
she allows many possible victims to
pass by without an efl'01 1 or desire lo
nun ninu iu uur collection; out it a
specimen nitiierto tinclasillcd crosses
her path, she is ready with her little
deseeting knife to peer into the
labyiinths of a new phase of human
nature.
Another cia-s, perhaps tho most
dangerous one into which wo aro di
viding coquettes, inelttdod those
womea wlio fancy themselves in love
with each fresh lover. Theoaro emo
tional and sympathetic women, wlio,
being incapaole of stiong feelinc;
themselves, aro borno along by the
force of pasalon which fascinates them,
and which thoy would gladly recipro
cate, in their often renewed disap
pointment at finding that the now
lover cannot luiko them forget them
selves, thoy feel a sense of injustice,
and never dream that they uio not the
Injured ones.
