MY LADY Loves Diamonds
WE DOUBT IF ANY WOMAN

WE DOUBT IF ANY WOMAN ever has a material possession more highly prized than dia- monds. Diamonds seem to have been created to adorn fair women. Each adds to the at- fractions of the other. The gift of diamonds conveys favor and secures regard as lasting as the brillianey of the gems. The eternal problem of "A man and a maid" can often be happily solved by the diamond method.
 Young men, and old, who wish to give the gift of supreme value must never forget this one.
 Here you have the largest stock to select from. Superior stones direct from the cutters at saving of 10 to 12 per cent on the cost. F.W.Bromberg

New York, March 19-The market to-
tions in cotton goods so far as business
actually in progress is concerned, but
no loss of strength in tone and prices
in a number of directions still tend
against buyers without open advances
being quoted. This is chiefly in brown
cottons. Print cloths are difficult to buy
on the basis of 32sc for regulars. Mems
wear wollens and worsteds are quite
without change in price. Wooden dress
goods firm in all staple lines, worsted
dress goods quiet.
COTTON.
New York. March 19.-The cotton
market opened steady with prices 1 to 2
points higher and changed but little dur
ing the balance of the session. The COM
mission house contingent had very few
orders in hand and from the first business
was very quiet. Early news favored a
higher market; Liverpool was fully one
point better than expected with spot
sales in that market reaching 10000
bales at full prices Again receipts gave
year several thousand bales, spot
market news was firm and cotton goods
accounts were very encouraging. The
official estimates for tomorrow's New
Orleans and Houston receipts capped the
climax, indicating sharp reduction in
the movement generally. But with all
this array of bullish conditions the
market showed little desiSe to work
higher; in fact the failure of prices to
respond created a feeling OF distrust
among conservative longs, and they
made haste to unload as a matter of
precaution. Persistent Wall Street sup
port under $50 for July held the market
tolerably steady until the last hour,
when prices slowly eased off under
steady realizing by commission houses.
At the close the market was quiet and
net unchanged to points lower. Some
five thousand March notices were issued
early in the day, but were readily taken
up by prominent spot cotton houses.
