Nothing so promptly cuts short a

Hot water taken freely half an hour
before bedtime is an excellent cathar-

it has soothing effect upon the storn-
ach and bowels.
This treatment, continued a. few
months, with the addition of a cupful
of hot water slowly half an hour be-

to diet, will cure most cases of sdys-s

Several times the EHTERpRISE has

that she has drawn the cotton

This is 327 bales more than twice
as much ss was sold here last
yeRr up to the same date.
On one day last week 325 bales
were sold here and 1,136 bales
were marketed here during the
week. There is no doubt but
that Lancaster has drawn the cot
ton, and the reason she has drawn
it is that she has paid more for it
than any other market in this

still doing it, and the cotton
