COTTON.

New York. Jan. 23.-The cotton mar
ket was dull and uninteresting today.
Traders were mostly professional and
price fluctuations were narrow. The dull
ness was due to unfavorable advices
from the English market. persistent ru-
mors to the effect that the British had
suffered another setback in South At
RIGA and lack Of business from out
side sources. When the market opened
but little resistance was made to the
half-healtcd efforts on the part of shorts

revealed Il decline of one to three points
and As the morning advanced the breach

A NATTER EXPLAINED.

The periodical drinker argues that the
Kelley Cure will do him 10 good as he
quits himself and frequently goes SIX
months without drinking. AS he would
be away from the institute when the
desire for whiskey came on, he says the
treatment would do him no good. There
the falacy comes in. Alcoholism Is
treated as a disease ut the Greensboro
Kelley Institute. The enfeebled nerve
cells are built up so that the desire or
craving for strong drink will never re-
turn. Many who have been cured, will
bear testimony to this.
