There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, aud until the last few
years was supposed to be lncurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be constitutional di-
sease, and therefore requires cOnstitu-
tional treatment Hairs Catarrh Cure,

HER OPINION OF THE MONARCH
View of a Spinster on the Subject of
Man.

A Taylor strest damsel, who has long
failed to get in the matrimonial boat,
defines man as two legged animal
that chews tobacco and walks on fork
ed ends. Most men, she admits, were
born. She never heard of but one that
wasn't, and ne was made of mud-just
for a sample. Man is found IN most
parts of the world. He roams at will,
feeds in the daytime and sleeps at
night-some nights. He is very tame,
You can 90 up to him and put your
hand on him anywhere; so you don't
put it IN his pocketbook, he has under
such conditions been known to kick.
Mans life is full of disappointments,
patent medicines and conceit. He
goeth forth like lion in the morning
and leaves the wood for his wife to
chop. In the evening he sneaks home
with his pants ripped and raises cain
about hard times. Man is like dog,
he bowls a great deal and runs around
at night. Little things worry man
worst-twins for instance. Man may
enjoy taking his sweet heart upon his
knee, but after marriage he doesn't
like to be sat upon. Man fourishes
like ragweed today and tomorrow the
undertaken has him sailed away in an
ice box. Now, as to what a man is
good for, anthropology is still in the
dark. Being stong, he is used to
draw pictures, carry news and revoly
ers. Properly trained, man can Jump
higher than any known animal; he has
been known to Jump board bills. Al
though IN many ways man is like 9TH
err animals in one respect he differs
from all: He lies while standing up

NOTHING DONE AT PosToFFIcE.
The Appointment ofPostmasterH Hangs
Fire.

Contrary to expectation, the appoint
ment of postmaster for the Americas
office continues to hang fire, though
it was generally supposed that the case
would have been disposed of ere this.
The delay, no doubt, is due to the re-
cent illness of the president, who fills
the vacancy here by appointment, and
the pressure of more important business.
In the meanwhile Assistant Postmaster
F. P. Mitchell is discharging the duties
of the Office satisfactorily, and business
in all the departments there is running
smoothly. It would not be surprising
in the least if the appointment was
made some time this week.

AMERlcUs HAS GOOD RECEIPTS.
Cotton Came to Warehouses Lively
Yesterday

Yesterday.
Americas warehousemen were dispos-
ed to feel good Yesterday at the manner
in which cotton receipts piled up, the
total running high in the hundreds as
seen by the market report elsewhere
today.
For week of bad weather the re
ceipts yesterday were very good.
Three or four days of rain interfered
greatly with picking, but the farmers
managed to work to good advantage
anyway and the feecy came rolling in
just the same.
There was sharp advance in the fu-
lures market yesterday, January con-
tracts going as high as 50 and closing
very steady at SIS This, no doubt,
was the result of the low bureau esti-
mate of the day before.
While the contract market thus NOV
ed up peg the spot market was un-
changed, local buyers paying 81 cents
for the best grades.
Up to last night the six Americas
warehouses had received little over
$4,000 bales of wagon cotton, which is
1000 or 5000 more than was received
here at this date last season. Good re-
ceipts indeed.
But the crop is rapidly being gather
ed and the bulk of it will be picked and
sold a month hence.
