I.—Starting with ' ensier cables than due, our eo.toa i market has shown a sagging ten dency throughout the day, being un der the pressure of hedges and !iqu ; dation from tired holders. Worth street reports a very quipt condition with immediate distributors deodar ng the lack of need in stocking up Vforo January 1. at which date orice revisions are confidently ex nectcd. For some time past it has been very popu'ar to. ignore the steadily increasing production csti mate by the government, but iliis 's a question that in our opinion can not bet so easily dismissed- Another increase by the government on tin eighth is very likely to reveal a large quantity of cotton to be still un hedged nnd that the supply of good cotton is much greater than it hn been the fashion to believe. The mar ket may be said to have lost a grout many of its friends since the begin ning of the week and a lower range of prices seems in hand. FENNER AND BEANE.

Better than anything I had ever smoked. That’s my story and I’m going to stick to it. When siren brands try to flirt, I just give them the icy stare. I know what I like in a pipe, and what I like is Prince Albert! The instant you break the seal on the tidy red tin and get that wonderful fra grance of real tobacco, you know you are hi for a pipe-treat. Your mouth fairly waters for a taste of tobacco that smells as good as that. Then you load up and fight up—ah! • , , Fringe albert —no other tobacco is like itt P 1924, M, Reynold, Tobacco Company, Winston-Salem, tTc. panied him and remained wi® him after deputies had taken him so the county jail.

Before you do another thing, buy a tin of Prince Albert and tuck a neat wad into your pipe. Notice how mild it is, yet how delightfully full-bodied.
