st Louis, Mo-, Dec. 10, 1898.
E. w. Hall, Waco, Texas.
Dear Sir: l desire to voluntarily
give you my endorsement as to the
merits of your Great Discovery or
Kidney Cure. After suffering three
years with kidney troubles and hav-
ing two prominent st. Louis physi-
clans and one prominent doctor in
the interior of the state to treat my
case without success, besides using
several so-called "Sure Cures" with
out getting relief I was induced by
an acquaintance in Shreveport, La,
to get bottle of your kidney cure.
To say that I am glad now would not
express one iota of my feeling. After
the third dose got relief. To-day
less than four weeks-I am cured
from malady that began to think
would carry me to my grave some
day. l never believed in testimoni-
ais; this is the first and only one
ever wrote. You are welcome to it.
Success to you. Yours truly,

LETTERS ID SANTA CLAUS.
The Graphic the Medium Through
 Which to Reach Kris Kringle.

It is the usual ctstom Gf the Graphic to issue Christmas edition containing. among other things, let ters from the children to Santa Claus, but this year no special Christmas edition will be issued There ore the Graphic will begin the publication Of letters to santa Claus daily or as often as received until the 25th inst. and the children are invited to ssnd in their letters at once. These letters should be lim- itea to fifty words at most, and will be published from day to day. The Graphic was the originator several years ago Of the Santa Claus letter business, aud the children who have usad these columns in the past have found that Santa Clans reads the Graphic and almost invariably com plies with their requests.
 The children are therefore invited to send in their letters at once and should remember to limit same to fifty words.

BALES SUM OF COTTON CROP ESTIMATE MADE
 BY
Is. C. ALEXANDER & CO
River Too Low for Navigatioh--- Crop Has Passed Out
 of First Hands.

PINE BLUFF, Ark., Dec. 5, 1899 - Since our last report the crop situa- ton has undergone complete change. We have believed all along that the crop was short, but it IS falling considerably behind our expectations; picking in this state is practically finished except in 8 few spots On the larger river plan tations and the end can now ba seen,
 The amount left on plantations ginnea aud not giuned is the small est that we lave ever known at this time of the year; the weather has beeu perfect and 71 cents foA fol cotton has proved very tempt ing Tbe consequence is that plant CTS have taken advantage of the IT narket 10 sell every bale possible. at the advanced price. The Arkansas river has been too low for navigation and plan ters have hauled their cotton by wagon to the nearest market; we are per sonally aequaint ted with a number who always ship by boat to Mem phis or New Orleans, but this sea son have sold to travelling buyers or local merchants who in turn. hauled 10 the nearest railway sta. tion and shipped to Eastern miiaes or to St. Lotus.
 Prices have been quite hiph in the interior and the croa has passed almost entirely out of first haads the fields are bare and we beMa9e that fully half of tre crop has comes in sight Should this prove to be true the crop will be a round nine million bales.
 Very truly yours,
