‘‘The currency bill amended by
the Senate Is a good bill, and I hope

Maddox “The success of the bill, if
it is adopted by Congress, depends
ntirely upon the confidence shown
in it by the national banks and their

to nettle things for a while and give j

believe thAt h regional reserve bank

That there would be a derided set

with the adoption of the bill by the
House was the opinion expressed by
Mr Hawk tun.

Mias Mary Lea Davis:
A most appropriate gift for a
wife to give her husband would
be a picture of herseir nicely
framed for bim to keep on his
desk or to take with him when
he has to leave home. If she will
present this to him with her
sweetest smile, and endeavor to
allow him In every way that he
has the love and devotion of (he
original, lia should be a happy
man, especially If lie Is in love
with his wife, as all men should
be
LIFE INSURANCE.
Mies Mary Lea Davis
\ life lnsurat.ee policy appeals
lo me as a very appropriate
Chriatmas present for a man to
give his wife, for It is not only a
constant reminder of the giver,
but allows forethought, and Is
also a source of satisfaction to the
giver to know that the one best
loved by him Is protected even
after his death. I think mv wife
will appreciate this more than
anything else 1 could give her
USEFUL ARTICLE.
Miss Mary Lea Davis:
At present we are struggling to
pay for a home and take care of
three little ones that must al
ways be remembered at Christ-,
mas; so neither of us will be able
to buy a present for the other.

knew from past experience.
REAL SENTIMENT.
M; nk M ary I yea Da v i s
Eighteen years ago 1 married
a farmer's rosy-cheeked daughter
I brought her to the city to live,
but she never seemed lo like it
here. Hhe 4iad been used to an
outdoor life. Visits lo her old
home brought the color back to
her cheeks and happiness to her
heart. This Christmas I am go
ing to give her a deed to a 165
acre farm which I purchased last
September and which I will stock
with cows, ohickenif ducks and
pigeons — the things I know she
loves Then we’ll all move back
to the country, ^nd I pra v that
the loses wili bloom again and
for all time in her dimpled cheeks!
THE RING SHE WANTS.
Miss Mary I^a Davis:
The wedding ring that 1 placed
on mv bride's finger fifteen vears
ago this month is too small for
her now. She was obliged to put
it away two months ago because
it was too tight for comfort. She
prized the ring highly because of
the sentiment attached to It, and
although siie didn't say much
about it, 1 know that she misses
1 sadly, for several times! have
noticed her looking at the rlng-
less finger In an absent-minded
way. For a Christmas present T
am going to give her another
ring as near like it as possible,
with the same motto engraved in
side J know she will be pleased
HER PHOTOGRAPH
M ias Ma r v *Lea Davis:
I shall give rny husband a dain
tily framed picture of myself. Per
haps !o many that would seem ex
travagance touched with vanity,
since we have only a very mod
est tncomf. But I have saved the
amount necessary for the gift
from my allowance during the
\ear by practicing bits of self
denial so small 1 can hardly re
call them. My husband Is blesaed
with mu appreciative nature, so
any gift 1 chose would be happi
ly received. But f am giving him
rny picture because it is the per
sonal note in n man’s married life
as well as in Ills benedictine days
that appeals to Ills best nature,
for, after all, the usefulness of <$,
gift must be judged by the heart
chord it strikes
VERY PRACTICAL.
Miss Mary Den Davis:
The most suitable gift a hus
band can give his wife la one that
she can enjoy in after years as
well as now. I think a life insur
ance policy for as much as one
can carry would be the most ap
preciated of all. Then she can
say, “He lived and died for those
he loved."
A REMINDER.
Miss Mary Left Davis:
In naming my choice of a gift.
1 have tried to select something
that would be acceptable to all
men as well as being within the
means of all wives. A dainty pho
tograph of herself for his office,
set in a frame In keeping with
her own individual finances,
would, to me. be *he most appre
ciated and tenderly sentimental
gift a wife could bestow—useful,
too. because in moments of dis
couragement and perhaps tempta
tion it would be a spur to better
effort and a constant reminder
of her love and trust.
NEW TORK. Dec. 20.—Prices went
down with a bang at the opening of 'he
cotton market to-day on the publication I
of the bearIsfi Census Bureau figures
on cotton of the 1913 crop tflnned to I
December 13. The first transactions]
were made at prices 10 t 20 points under 1
Friday’s closing After that the market j
steadied for a breathing spell and then j
<iacked wide open under a wave of 1
tremendous selling orders While the
selling movement was at Its height ,
prices broke $1.35 to $1.80 a hale lower
than Friday's final.
The ring crowd sold aggressively j
Wall street, the South, the uptown
crowd and lon^s were noticeable on the
selling side No one seemed Inclined to
support the list and the break made
without a pause. Leading hulls and !
some of the larger spec houses who
nave supported the list for the past few
da\s were not In evidence and the bears
hammered with confidence January
was the weakest option of the list, drop
ping to 11.89.
The Census figures exceeded the gen
eral expectation by 200.000 hales. Just
before ihe opening guesses ranged from
12.450.000 to 17.798.000 bales The report
seemed to put an end to the hone of a
commercial crop under 14,000.000 bales.

The Chicago Inter Ocean-says: “Bulls
in wheat said they would not he sur
prised to see some little break, but ad
vised buying on every decline to around
90 cents for May. Bulls on the deferred
futures In corn picked up courage after
the close, due to the rally and antici
pate that the movement will fad off
shortly; that the cash demand, which is
usually dull at this season, would re
vive before long, and that it would take
a substantia! advance to start country

By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, Dec 20. Announcement
In Washington of the agreement reached
between the United States Government
and the American Telephone and Tele
graph Company, hy which this corpora
tion is to relinquish its control of the
Western Union Telegraph Company,
caused u tremendous rebound in Ameri
can Telephone and the opening of the
stock market to day.
American Telephone, which had closed
at 117% on Friday, opened at 120%. but
within half an hour had touched 124
for ft net advance of 6%.
Western Union did not respond as
sharply as American Telephone, open
ing at 61 for a gain of 1 point.
T raders regarded the Washington an
nouncement with great optimism for va-*
rious reasons. They believed that it
had temporarily checked the movement
for Government ownership of telephone
and telegraph lines, and it was evident
that it forestalled long atxl bitter liti
gation and legislation under the Sher
man anti-trust law
Trading was so vigorous at the open
ing of the stock market and the con
fusion was so great that the floor com
mittee of the stock exchange had to
hold a special meeting to determine
upon an official quotation as the open
ing price of American Telephone
It was finally decided to make the
opening price as follows:
"Two thousand shares of American
Telephone and Telegraph traded in at
from 120% to 124."
These 2.0(H) shares, however, came In
lots of 500. 200 and 100
The strength in the wire stocks was
imparted to the balance of the list. and.
taken all in all. bigger overnight gains
were recorded than at any other time
for two years.
At the end of 46 minutes American
