COMPLETE TREATMENT, $1.00.
f The agonizing Itching and burning of
the (tda, ai In ocema tha frightful
scaling, u In psoriasis; the loss ol hair
and eras ting of the scalp, as in scalled
head; the facial disfigurement, at in
ptaplei and ringworm j the awful suf
fering of infants and the anxiety of
worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tet
ter and salt rheum, all demand a rem
edy of almost superhuman virtues to
uoeetsfaHf oope with them. That
Catienra Soap, Ointment and Pills are
such stands proven beyond all doubt.
No statement is made regarding them
that is not Justified by the strongest
evidence. The purity and sweetness,
the power to afford Immediate relief,
the certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy, have made them the standard
skin cures and humour remedies of the
civilized world.
Bathe the affected parts with hot
water and Cutlenra Soap, to cleanse the
surface of crusts and scales and soften
the thickened cuticle. Pry, without
hard robbing, and apply Cutlenra Oint
ment freely, to allay itching, Irritation
and inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and, lastly, in the severer forms, take
Cuticura Resolvent Fills, to cool and
cleanse the blood. A single set is often
suffluient to cure the most torturing,
disfiguring and humiliating skin, scalp
and olood humours, with loss of hair,
when all else falls.

Market Letter on Cotton.
By Private Wire to J. E. Latham & Co.
New York, March; 12.- At one time
today tho bottom seemed to havo drop
ped out of the market. In every way
prlccB crumbled in a more sensational
way than on tlio previous break. Taking
the break from about ft ,90 to 970 OA this
decline, and we believe leas cotton was
sold on the previous docllno. In early
dealing May ran from 9.79 to 9.89 and
then the break started. Before traders
knew what was going on, May was 9.68
After a 10 point reaction, the afternoon
brought out more prcssuro and low
prices were reached. It will require a
lot of buying to get cotton back to pre
vlous high prices. An oveiflow mij
turn prices up, and people here may.buy
on a further break to hold, but each day
means nearer spring and the load will
Increase. We don't want lo buy cotton
and believe In selling August on a'l ral
lies at present. The south will plant
for the biggest crop ever seen, and this
will be a fear argument. We would
rather take chances on the short side on
every advance toward BJc for the flnan
clal situation is not favorable for hnyors
at any such prices as we are having now
Later In the season ll may turn rut that
the crop la moderate and this will mean
higher prices, but we can't but help
think that cotton, especially August
should be sold on all bulges.
