NEW ORLEANS COTTON.
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. I Ad rn.no es In
the early trading In cotton today ware re
placed by losses In the afternoon. In the I
morning there was a feeling of aauarac-
thn regardlner the way this country reacts I
to the derman note but In the afternoon
the hear view that the coming; reply must
be regarded as unfavorable again came
to the fore and. in addition, there wii
aelllne- based on reports that the Carolines I
trmt mills in that section were shorthtind- I
ed because of the prevalence of Influents!
while bearish traders ctalmod that Into lor I
spot markets were weaker. At the high
est the trading months were r,i to 801
points over yewteirday's close. The telling I
of the afternoon carrted prices 48 to 51
points under yesterday's finals. The close I
wns 43 to 51 points down net.
The market acted over-wma in the I
momlnn and shorts betrayed nervousness
ovor heavy rains in Texas and private I
rorecasts or a cow wave wwnin tne next
few days. A steady tone was maintained I
up to the middle of the dav. but. In (he I
afternoon the market lacked substantial
support. Locally spelts were steady endl
unchanged at 83.83 for middling, which I

OUT goes the dirt. Grandma sees to
that. Those great, big, bubbling,
cleansing Grandma suds just surge
through the clothes and not a bit of
dirt can stay. No rubbing necessary.
Ml
Just spripkle Grandma in the tub and then, like
white: magic millions of glorious suds in an instant.
It's wonderful how Grandma does the work. It
makes no difference if the water is hard, soft, hot or
cold, the result is always the same. Grandma is the
greatest 1 'all round" household soap of the age it's
powdered. No chipping or slicing. No whole bars
wasting away when Grandma is on hand.
