 New York, June 9.-This was the livellest days trading that the cotton market mas seen in some time The bullish undertone that has besn surrent here for d week or more assumed definite shape today, and prices went up easily. Liverpool advanced one and one-half sixty-fourths this morn ing. The opening here was thres' to four points higher in the early trading, the mar ket showing a disposition to hat, but liberal buying orders from New Orleans turned the scale in favor of the bulls, and undsr heavy local covering prices took anotheT jump. The late months in which the shorts were most numerous, displayed7the geatest strength. The government. crop bulletin reported good progress for. the week, but complained of 1routh in some isection~ As these neighborhoods have mostly been visit ed with rains since Sunday, this feature should not have been alarming. August opened at 7.31, declined to T.7, advanced to 7.36, reacted to 7S1 and closed at 7.34 to 7.35, with the toue of the market steady. We think tho sho't interest was much cut down today and we have little faith in higher prices. RIORDAN & co.

FOR WOMEN ONLY.

An Expert Diagnosis Made Free and
 Brought to Every Home
 Many women are sick, More than one half of the women are at least not well. The great majority of these can find no permanent cure. Only those fortunate enough to have access to the most skill ful diagnosis can hope to find cure. Only a small majority of women can do this Either their means or distance from an eminent physician prevent 1t. One of the most eminent physicians in this line is Dr. Hartman, of Columbus, Ohio. During the hot months Dr. Hart man treats diseases of women free. On receipt of letter explaining the particu- lars of the case he prescribes medicine that can be obtained at th9 nearest drug store. Each patient is expected to report once a month, when she will receive such additional instructions as may seem nec- essary. All letters strictly confidential. Mrs. George B. White,a of Petosky, Mich, writes: T will now say that I have not been as well in eight years as I am at present. For eight years have not been able to attend church, but this summer I have walked to church, also down town and back, without stopping to rest, which is about mile. keep the Pe-ru-na near me, and if I do not feel well take little.
