Blood

This is also the reason for the great popu-
larity of Hoods Sarsaparilla as building
up medicine. BY making pure, rich blood,
it gives vigor and vitality even in try

ished blood, thousands are complaining OF
weakness and WEAKNESS, lack of energy
and ambition, and that tired feeling.

New York. Nov. 22.-Thfs was the dullest day in the cotton market that aas been seen for a long time. Liverpool was practically unchanged when our market opened this morning. But there was apparently no disposition to sell here, and our opening was from 1 to 5 points higher. After the opening the market became very full and advanc somewhat in the absence of any selling pressure and on limited nvestments buy ing; estimated receipts for tomorrow at Houston and New Orleans were extreme 1y large and resulted in the loss/o of most of the advance. in the afternoon. Janu- ary opened at 569, advanced to ETA, de- clined to 5.7O and closed at 571, with the tone of the market quiet. Receipts to- day were full.

Cotton Letter.

New York, Nov. 22.-The Liverpool cotton market opened about poirt low CT this morning than the last sale of Sat urday, but closed about the same as Saturday after losing points conse- quently without any material news from the cotton belt. our market was but lit- tie affected. Our January option opened at 5.1O and after having gained 1 points, sold back to 5.70, and remained around this figure most of the session. with a dull trade. The port receipts today were rather large, but they did not seem large enough for the bears to take advantage of this item, being s5,00o bales. The weather throughout the cotton belt has been very good for the past fsw days, and we may expect some heavy port re- eeipts for the following week if this kind of weather continues. though hard ly enough to-ssnd the market much low CT. Spot cotton was steady and un- changed from Saturday.

Grain Letter

Chicago, Nov. 22.-May wheat opened at 9OA. Kc higher than Saturdays close. and sold down to S97s, but rallied and closed at 9O5s, with the tone steady. All the markets here were dull today, with very little trading and consequently but slight fluctuations. Corn and oats were steady and unchanged, with the feeling a little bearish, while provisions were slightly higher on Fighter hog receipts. This market looks low enough. and if bought now and held for 8 short while will realize profits. The grain market depends almost entirely upon weather reports at present, and if we have a sudden change in weather and few freezes we will see wheat considerably higher than present prices.
