Nov. 21.—Ginning was slightly above expectations but still so small as to confirm strongly the lower estimates bf the Crop nnd it is pointed out that if ginning for the balance of the season should exceed last year by a quarter million the crop would barely reach nine one-half. Mills still complain loudly of inability to secure business on a satisfactory basis and the air is full of talk of curtailment. That will be compulsory even if not voluntarily adopted if consumption is to be two million less than last year which is about what it will have to lose with a supply so limited as that in prospects. Private advices however assert that re gardless qf price Lancashire will use 15 to 20 per cent more than last year and It is generally felt that domestic trade will take a distinct turn for the better after the turn of the year. There are rumors that considerable cotton will reach here for delivery on December but with conditions as they promise to develop it looks that it will be readily taken care of though heavy tenders on . u - • - A—», _ THE CONC9RD TRISyif? the first notice day might weaken that position temporarily. The undertone of the market remains surprisingly strong and though there must be a breaking point somewhere no one seems confident where it will be found. POST AND FLAOG. Famous Metropolitan Will Be Re modeled. New York, Nov. 22. —As soon as the big golden curtain* swing down on the last performance of the season next spring, the Metropolitan Opera House, which has been New York's home of grand opera and fashion for four de cades, will be remodeled. Plans call for extension by six to eight feet of the dress circle, balcony and family circle, tq provide 1,000 additional seat* and improve the visibility of the stage from the upper tiers. The picturesque orchestra circle, flanking the parquet, and the grand tier boxes, just above the famous diamond horseshoe, may disappear. The change was decided upon to meet a de mand for lower priced seats. There are believed to be 8,000 dense* in the eye of the ordinary house-fly.

Co-operative Selling Proves Successful With Portuguese. Washington, Nov, band of 100 Portuguese farmers, who can neither read nor write English and who are work ing out their economic freedom through co-operative marketing,/is engaging the attention of the Department of Agrienlr ture. . Officials here say these Portuguese, who" live about Cape Cod in Massachusetts and call themselves the Cape Cod Straw berry • Growers’ Association, understand the true principles of co-operation. The secret of their success is a high quality product, carefully graded and itaeked which has created a demand that takes practically all the berries the associa tion can market. This year more than a million quarts of berries were marketed with a gross re turn of $133,000. The association has been in existence eight years. Chief Justice Taft) Denies He is Dead Washington.

Nov. 21.—Convicted of assault with deadly weapon on three Kay street school boys, Rev. Thomas 0 (.amok. wealthy retired Baptist minister, was today ordered to pov ?22i> into the eourt to defray the ex pense of medical treatment for the boys and to pay the costs in the case. This judgment was rendered shortly before t» o clock this afternoon bv Judge Horae* Haworth, who heard the case. The trial began thfls morning and con sumed all of the court’s time today. Much interest was shown, the court room being filled with spectators. The 74-yoar-old ex-preacher, who is well known throughout this (Action, was indicated for shooting John Wiles and Gilbert Hoskins, two Ray street school boys, near his home lat Friday. It also developed at the hearing that Duncan Bain, another school boy sustained a superficial wound on the bark as a re suit of the hooting. Testifying in his own behalf the aged minister said lie shot to mark the boys and not to kill them. He told virtually the same story as that given In the in terview published in the Daily News last Sunday morning. Mr. Garrick declared that for some time he had been annoyed by boys who stole his turnips, broke off tiie limbs on his trees and damaged his property in other ways. He declared that he had .used his shotgun in protecting his turnips only after he had appealed to the police and to the school authorities and they hnd given him no relief. He reiterated the statement that he did not shoot the boys to kill them. “If I had wanted to kill them I ltad a gun better thnn that, iie said. John Wiies and Gilbert Hoskins, the two boys shot, were not seriously injured and unless there are complications they will recover, physicians testified at the trial today. One of the largest, pictures in the world is a representation of the funeral of M. Carnot, painted by a French art ist. The canvas measures one hundred and fifty square yards. RENEWED TESTIMONY Ho one In Concord who suffers backache, headaches, or distressing urinary Ills can afford to ignore this Concord woman’s twice-told story. It Is confirmed testimony that no Con cord resident can doubt. Mrs. J. W. McClellan, 154 E. Depot Bt., says: “Some yeare ago I waa all run down and had no ambition. My back ached fco I could hardly move and felt weak and it was hard for me to stand. My kidneys didn’t act right and I felt dizzy and ner vous and couldn’t stand the least an noyance. I couldn’t find anything to give me relief ’until I began to take Doan’s Kidney Pills, which I got to -Gibson's - Drug Store. The first box did me a'lot of good and Aft er I h»d taken three boxes of Doan’s I waa practically cured and never felt better in my life.” Mrs. McClellan gave the above statement on March 13, 1915, and on Jan. 23, 1922. she %dded: “My kid neys haven't troubled me for some time now and I give all the credit to Doan’s Kidney Pllla.” 60c, at all dealers.

DARKEN YOUR GRAY HAIR Use Grandma’s Sage Tea and I] Sulphur Recipe and Nobody II Will Know The use of Sage and Sulphur for re storing faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to grandmother’s time. She used it to keep ner hair beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mix ture was applied with wonderful ef fect. But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a bottle of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound,” you will get this famous old preparation, im proved by the addition of other ingre dients, which can be depended upon to • restore natural color and beauty to the hair. Well-known druggists say it darkens the hair so naturaily and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, it becomes beautifully dark and glossy. I Rub Rheumatism or I Sore, Aching Joints!
