Today Cooper had fled from a flood "of questions with a parting cheerful 'admonish to "wait and see." The first concrete blow to the fortune story was the occasion for a newspaper extra branding the entire tale a hoax, and citing several merchants as creditors who had advanced money on the strength of the "fortune."

We speak of fading beauty, a fading mind or body, but nobody wants te fade. There is a hint of late autumn in fading leaves, of waning powers, as when Macheth exclaimed, "My way of life is fall'n into the sear, the yellow leaf." i Yet leaves do not always fade in {such a manner as. to warrant somber 'veflection. Many leaves fade amidst "a glory and beauty such as fills the western sky when there is a red sun- iset. Some leaves fade in color that jare enchanting, a sort of mid-autumn"s i day dream. Were it not for the fading ileaf the splendors of autumn would be lost and gone from the landscape the splashes of crimson, glorious hues of orange, anu more sedate shades of maroon and russet. Autumn "Turned my maple's leaves to gold; The most are gone now; here and there one longers, Soon these will slip from out the twig's weak hold. 1 ] Like coins between a dying miser's i fingers." i THLE WORLD SERIES. 4 People who never attend a world "series all game have little idea of the thrill of suspense that sways that vast assemblage as those decisive innings [slip away. The low scores suggest the (intense concentration with which every nian is playing. {It is not mérely a beautiful demon- stration of athletic skill, but a wonder- tial display of disciplin. If the instant , obedience given to the leader of the 'team, and the absolute submission to the laws of the game, could be trans- "planted to the industrial and social world, this would be a different story. SELF CONTROL IN SPORT One of the finest manifestations of the world series games, is the display "of self control by the players. Those fellows realize very keenly how much depends on their ability to think quick "and carry out their thoughts. It is net merely the money they can make by winning, but the effect on their prestige and future sporting career. But in spite of the intensity and y anxiety of the moment, these fellows J play with calm and self-assurance. t Thereby they give a lesson to ambiti- ous folks in the amateur games that self-control is one of the biggest things in the world, and lies close to the heart ci all success, CHASING LIQUID GOLD Particularly valuable to those who ale tempted to sink their savings in "wildcat" oi! ventures in the hope of garnering vast riches. is a bulletin issued by the U.S. bureau of mines, which estimates that $30,000,000 is spent annually in drilling holes that vield no oil. In the last two years 014 dry holes, representing an average cost of $10,000, have been reported. Of ccurse anyone at all acquainted with the oii producing industry knows that failures are frequent and that the Lusiness is attended with hazard, but since the successes are widely pro- claimed, and the dry holes get little advertising, it is likely to be assumed Ly the uninitiated that the rewards are more certain than. works out of practice. The findings of the bureau of mines may sonstitute warning against undue hope in wildeatting but is not likely to affect it greatly. The possibility of great gein, even though remote, is a lure that eppeals to men and it is probable that there will be future iosses in dry holes much as in the past. Those who do invest in such enter. prises have the joys of pursuit for a time, even if they realize no other re- ward. H) 1 EXPORTS OF BUTTER & CHEESE In the twelve months ending with the sixth month of the present year, accord ing to the Dominion Dairy News Let- ter Canada's export of butter decreased close upon twe and a half million pounds compared with the previous year's returns, but a cent and a half per pound increase in proce to some extent counterbalanced the deficit. On the other hand the total export of cheese increased by over twelve mil- lion pounds and by almost three cents a pound in price.
