AT FIRST GLANCE

1t Would Appear that Local Remedies
Would Be Best for Cure OF Catarrh.
1t would seem at first glance that ca
tarrh being a disease Of the mucous mem
brane that salves, sprays etc. being ap-
piled directly to the membranes of the
nose and throat would be the most RAJ
tional treatment, but this has been proven
not TO be true.
The mucous membrane is made and re
paired from the blood and cutaTh Is Il
blood disease, and any remedy TO make a
permanent cure must act on the blood, aud
when the blood Is purified from catarrhal
poison the secretions from the mucous
membrane will become natural and heal
thy.
In this climate thousands OF people seem
scarcely ever free from some form Of
cataTrh; It gets better at times, but each
winter becomes gradually deeper seated,
and after time the sufferer RESIGNS him
self to 1t as a necessary evil.
Catarrh cures are almost rs numerous
as catnrrh sufferers, but are nearly all so
lnconvenlent and ineffective as to render
their use a nuisance nearly as annoying
as catarrh itself; anyone who has used
douches, sprays and powders will bear
witness to their Inconvenience and failure
There are numebr Of excellent inter
nal remedies for cHtarrh, but probably the
remedy, composed OF Red Gum, Blood Root
and similar antis@ptic remedies and Other
valuable catarrh specifics.
This remedy is in tablet form pleasant
to the taste and sold by druggists under
the name OF Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and
anyone suffering from catarrh may use
these tablets with absolute assurance that
they rontain no cocaine, opiate nor any
poisonous mineral whatever.
A leading druggist In Albany speaking
lous catarrh cures for years but have
never sold any which gave such general
satisfaction as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
They contain IN a pleasant, concentrated
form al! the best and latest catarrh rene
dies, and catarrh sufferers, who have
used douches, sprays and salves, have
been astonlshed at the quick relief Int
use OF Stuarts Catarrh Tablets" Al
druggists sell full-siSed packages for nifty
] cents.

mand was oiled the restricted demand for
spots and the bearish weekly statistics oc-
cnsioned a break OF @ 20 I points from the
top, making the net loss 3 to points On
the day.
Rains we're general in the western por-
tion OF the belt, while cloudy weather pre-
vailed over the eastern. The temperature
Is above 60 degrees over the western sec
tion and Is generally about 90 in the east
ern. Showers are predicted TO occur over
the greater portion OF this district tonight
or Saturday and the temperature will fan
over the northern portion, otherwise II Will
remain stationary, The heavy rains prcva-
lent in Texas for the past week or ten
days have retarded picking and made roads
impossible, therefore Il IS anticipated that
the movement from that state during the
next fifteen days viii be much lighter
than last years. The brisk demand FOR
spots, which existed for week seems to
he about Oiled. Exporters claim that spin.
ners refuse to follow the advance and VIII
only buy ON a declining market, as they
believe the crop "a large. rho premium
ruling In deliveries over spots, ana the
apathy shown by spinnera whenever values
are advanced precludes any marked en-
hancement. Large purchases have been
nndo on the expectation of q small bureau
estimate on December 3. We again sug-
gest working on conservative lines after
such a sharp advance.
The receipts weather and the demand for
spots VIII continue to govern.
