We will not see any 5 cents tjtton in any event, but if the crop pVospeets improve, it will not pay to jjjld cotton for higher prices, although 5$ie may he obtained in the spring summer.

Then, again, there is just now a peculiar need for calm study of the environment. In the furor of an upward movement as in the dead calm of a dribbling de cline, the average man takes a great deal too much for granted. It does not necessarily follow that the unusual period of rest will enable anybody to see through the millstone, but the bliss of acknowledged ignorance may come with the protracted pause. The devel opments of the hour teach the need of caution as to estimates of the crop. ! For example the statement of the New York cotton exchange shows that no less " than 10,741,000 bales have already come into sight for the commercial year which is about to end. The explanation of this unexpectedly large total is found in the allowance of 1,974,000 for southern consumption. Mr. Hester will publish his figures on Monday next. If his report confirm the statement just noted, Mr. Buston's forecast of 10,750,000 minimum will re ceive historis seal. If a deduction for new cotton brought into sight during August be made, the estimate of this journal's correspondents (10,400,000) will come pretty close to the mark. Mr. Price and the agricultural bureau are among the horses which "also ran." After all, crop guessing is no depart ment of Astronomy and each investiga tor should be content to give his infor mation for what it is worth. In such a case pride of opinion is simply pre postrous. As a rule the composite pho tograph of a crop affords the best like ness. CHARLOTTE COTTON. Corrected Daily for the News by tleath-Reid Jobbing and Commission Company.

They have dispelled the silly notion that one kind of food is Heeded for brain, another for cles, and still another for bones. Ax correct diet will, not only nourish a particylar part of the body, but it Will sustain every other part, et, however good your food may be, its nutriment is destroyed by indigestion or dys pepsia. You must prepare for their ap pearance or prevent their coming by taking regular doses of Green's Au gust Flower, the favorite medicine of the healthy millions. A few doses aids digestion, stimulates the liver to healthy action, purifies the blood,, and makes you feel buoyant and vigorous. You can get this reliable remedy at Fitzsimons Drug Co.'s. A Noted Detective of tfre South. Testifies Mr. J. Samuel Wilkinson, 5011-2 N. 28th St., Says: "I was cured of a very bad case of stricture with three bottles of L. J. Hayden's Wonderful Indian Herb Medicine, after having been operated on by three different doctors that only gave me temporary relief. I was advised by Mr.. J. J. Graves, Justice of the Peace for Jackson Ward, to o to Mr. Ii. J. Hayden, 404 West Eroad street, Richmond, Va., and was cured without any instrument. I most cheerfully recommended his medicine to all who. are suffering from this cause, and will, with pleasure, give any information as to how I was cured." Very respectfully, J.

FOR MALARIA, CHILLS AND FEVER, TAKE Hancock's Liquid SilpKir, . : : Nature's Great Germicide. A guaranteed cure for Eczema and all blood and skin diseases. The therapentic value of sulphur is too generally known and too widely recognized to enter into a long history or explanation of it here. Sulphur in a powdered form for many years has been prescribed by physicians in all parts of the world for a great variety of ills mankind in heir to. Owing to its insolubility no one has ever been able to apply it in sufficient strength to bring into action a hundredth part of its power. By the late discovery of Hancock's Liquid Sulphur all obstacles hereto fore encountered have been removed in obtaining in a liquid the full strength and effectiveness of sulphur. If sulphur is a specific, then one can very readily see why the liquid must be much more beneficial, as the skin absorbs it the instant it is applied. At the present day authorities on. skin diseases concede and have dem onstrated that skin diseases of every nature are caused by microscopic germs, baccilli, bacteria, microzyme, or other forms of animal decomposi tion. Hancock's Liquid Sulphur ar rests animal decomposition in every form, and is an absolute destroyer of all germs in such diseases as eczema, tetter, pimples, acne herpes, salt rheum, ringworm and open suppura ting sores.
