Sarolina, say One OF our customers, a
Hersminent mar in this community, SUIT
fered with liver complaint. He con-
suited several physicians but they
failed 10 benefit him. We prevailed
apon him TO try the Ramon Pills and
Pellets. He sonn bought more and is
now a well and hearty man, aud has
gained in flesh. He says the pills saved
his life and the six boxes cost him only
$3.50. while his trip to New York to con
suit the doctors, cost him $4,000.

PRICE, MCCORMICK & co.'s LETTER
Acceptance of Current Prices For
Cotton Advised.

New York, March THE cotton mark
ct closed weak today. in view of which.
the following may not be regarded as
without interest: On Wednesday, the
nth OF August. 1899, August contracts in
New York, which represent the price of
middling cotton, sold at 5.o2. Yesterday.
the 9Th of March, nearly seven months
later. March contracts, which represent
the basis Of middling prices sold at 9.63,
making a net advance on less than Z
months, of about 40 points. The eN-
IRENE variation in any previous year
since 1874, according to Shepperson'S Cot
ton Facts, has been 4 161-c. in 1875, 3asc.
in 1878, 41ac. in 1879, 3 5-16c. in 1892,
3 13-16c. in 1895. 1t will thus be seen
that that seasons FORMULATION as COM
pared with any previous season for the
past % years had only been once exceed
ed and then only by about 40 points. In
most previous cases the extremes have
resulted from the secondary effect on an
anticipated damage to a succeeding crop.
In no case has the readjustment of the
relation between the demand and supply
Tor any one crop led to such an extreme
fiuctuation as we have had this year, as
a result of the shortage of the crop of
1S99-190O. In our opinion the advance in
the market has been exaggerated great
ly because of the bad distribution of
this crop. Mr.. NeillS prediction of H.
600, coo bales made early in the season
led Europe to believe that our supplies
could be secured at moderate prices, and
from nearly the commencement of that
year until a few weeks ago, foreign con-
sumers insisted upon maintaining this
position.
The result was a very small stock in
Liverpool and a very large short interest
there in the shape OF contracts or un-
covered requirements OF spinners. Du-
ring the past week, however, Europe has
recognized the perilousness OF her posi-
ton and has bought persistently and in
sistently until the position is almost re
versed. Bankers report to US that the
offerings Of bills against cotton exports
within the past 10 days have increased
very largely, and demand on exchange has
fallen from s4.S77s to $4.84A in conse-
quence.
Imports of gold in the near future
seem not improbable. Competent autho-
rites estimate that amount of eX-
change SO sold within the past 10 days,
is not far from $50, 900 900 which, at pres
ent prices for cotton would represent an
