FREE CURE FOR MEN.
a Michigan Man Offers to Send His
Discovery Free.
Claims to be Benefactor to Weak
ened Mankind.

There is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free
but somtimes a man so overhows with
generosity that he cannot rest until his
discovery is known to the world, in order
that his fellow men may profit by what
he has discovered. 1t is upon this prin-
cipal that a resident of kalamazoo,
Mich. desires to send free to mankind
prescription which will cure them of any
form of nervous debility; relieves them
of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and
restores the organs to natural size and
vigor. As it costs nothing to try the
experiment it would seem that any man,
suffering with the nervous troubles that
usually attack men who never stopped to
realize what might be the final result,
ought to be deeply interested in a remedy
which will restore them to health,
strength and vigor, without which they
continue to live and existence of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was
the result of many years research rs to
what combination would be peculiarly
effective in restoring to men the strength
they need, it would seem that all men
suffering with any form of nervous weak
ness ought to write for such a remedy
at once. A request to I'll. @. Odds, Box
1922, Kalamazoo, Mich, stating that you
are not sending for the prescription out
of idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make use Of the medicine by giving it
a trial, will be answered promptly and
without evidence as to where informa-
ton came from.
The prescription is sent free and al
though some may wonder how, Mr.. Olds
can afford to give away his discovery,
there is no doubt about the offer being
genuine. Cut this out and send to Mr..
Odds so that he may know how you came
to write him.

NEW Y0RK sToCK MARKET.

New York, Dec. S-The stock market
to-day was to a considerable extent per-
functory. Dealings were materially
lighter than for a long time past, and
the professional, while inclined to the
bear side, displayed a vaeillating tenn
per. The results was a poorly distri-
buted and irregular speculation within
narrow range. Dealings for foreign
account, while moderate in volume were
mainly for the long account, the Presi-
Dental message apparently being favor
ably received in London. The local
traders, however, made their usual at
tacks upon the specialties for effect upon
prices generally The results achieved,
however, barely justified even the moder-

New York. Dec. S-After opening at
a decline Of 204 points, the cotton mar
ket further declined 304 points, then
returned to the opening figures, after
which there was sharp break which
carried prices 15M17 points below the
level of !. yesterday. The large move
ment of cotton indicated for the week
at interior towns and ports and the lack
of outside speculative support caused
active liquidation and for the most part
a weak and unsettled market, offsetting
Indication of liberal sales to spinners at
Liverpool and restricting buying of flu
ture contracts ia the European market
generally. Much of the selling pressure
came from Liverpool and New Orleans
to-day. A partial reaction followed the

HUBBARD BROS. & CO.'S LETTER.
New York, Dec ESPECIAL Our
market has been under the influence of
the daily receipts, which are thought to
indicate a heavier movement Of the crop
during the week to come than has been
decidedly less than last week, but as it
has shown an increase at the interior
market. it is accepted as indicating con-
tinuance of the heavy movement and all
have been tempted to liquidate their
holdings Stop orders being caught Mt
each point on the decline and no buying
power appears to absorb the offerings,
in short, it seems to be a liquidating
market regardless of the merits Of the
situation. Every effort being made TO
prevent further loss rather than to regard
the market as presenting opportunities
for cheap purchases. The trade has be-
come bearish on the outlook and does
not see any indications of the decline be-
ing checked. The market to-day has
suffered from having too many friends
anxious to liquidate their holdings at the
same time and closes steady ut shade
better than the lowest The crop move
ment will show about 100000 to $4,000
bales for one week, against 100000 last
year. but the desire to liqui9ate holdings
was too great for the market to digest.
