GRIPPE Is CONTAGIOUS.

New York, March 2.-Dr. Cyrus
Edison, III discussing the present
epidemic of grippe III this city, is
quoted to-day as saying:
Grippe Is contagious, aud II the
public were fully aware Of that
fact many unnecessary infections
would be avoided. Ths grippe
forms spirillum or bacillus, To-
mtes itself principally in the mu-
cous membranes Of the respiratory
tract, and it is au air borne disease
one acquires it by breathing in
the germs. Ample evidence Of its
contagiousness is fonnd Ey it's pas
sage through Il family, II city or u
section af the country, travelling
the ordinary lines OF travel. 1t is
in this way hat it was brought TO
this country somefifteen years ago,
coming IN steamers from Europe.
"a great mistake is made by the
man who returns to his work too
soon after an attack Of grippe.
"To avoid catching the grippe,
keep ont of the way of people who
have it, keep warm and keep your
feet dry Sleep in well-ventilated
room, but avoid draughts. Ii your
baby has the grippe, don't kiss it.
If your stenographer has the
grippe, send her home until she
gets well. II your friend has the
grippe, send him flowers and re-
grQts, bnt don't call on him until
he is well. Don't get tired, and
above all keep warm and dry.
When you do get the grippe take
a laxative, go to bed aud send for

"When Ind an attack of the grip last
winter (thc second one) l actually cured
myself with one bottle Of Chamberlain :
Cough Remedy" says Frank W. Perry,
Editor OF the Enterprise, Shortsvillc, N.
Y. "This is the honest truth. ut times
kept from coughing myself to pieces by
taking a teaspoonful Of this remedy, and
when the coughing spell would como on
ut night would take dose and 1t seemed
that in the briefest interval the cough
would pass off and would go to sleep
perfectly free from cough and its accom-
panying pains. To say that the remedy
acted as most agreeable surprise is put
ting it very mildly. l had no idea that it
would or could knock out the grip, simply
because had never tried 1t Tor such a
purpose, but it did, and II seemed with
the second stack of coughing the remedy
caused it to not only be OF less duration,
but the pains were far less severe, and
had not used tho contents Of one bottle
before Mr.. Grip had bid me adieu.' For

The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall Street.

The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall Street.
New York, Dec. 19.-The upward
movement in stocks received somewhat
of a check this week from free realizing
sales and from unsettled conditions in
the steel trade. No change, however,
could be detected in the undertone of
the market, which has plainly improved
owing to the conviction that the worst
of liquidation is over and that prices
must recover from the abnormally low
level induced by that liquidation. A
very fair recovery had already taken
place, gut 1.-THE pace seemed too rapid
to last and was confined to only few
stocks. There has been in consequence
a good deal of profit-taking, also
disposition to invest in stocks which
thus far have not proportionately
shared in the advance.
General business is fairly active for
the season. Clearing house returns and
railroad earnings show only slight re-
dictionary tendencies, generally explain
ed in the first case by lessened specu-
lation and in the latter by smaller iron
shipments. The West seems to be en-
joying uninterrupted prosperity, and
over the high price of cotton and the
consequent prosperity of planters. The
burden of dear cotton falls with special
severity upon the mills, some of which
may be forced into temporary curtail-
ment, but the South as whole is likely
to have more money to spend in 1904
than ever before.
Cotton also proved to be an impor-
tant factor in our exports. Last MONTH
November our merchandise exports ag-
gregated $780, 900, or S5,000,000 more
than in the same month last year.
Nearly the whole of this increase, $780,
500, 900, was in cotton, and was due to
high prices and backwardness of the
crop.
AS the close of the year draws near
activity on the Stock Exchange is like
ly to be confined within moderate
limits. Closing of accounts and all the
movements incidental to the end of the
year continue to divert attention from
the stock market. The possibility of a
slight furry in the money market also
restraints speculation Nevertheless,
there is a more confident undertone to
the market and the release of about
S145, 900, 900 for dividends, etc, after
Jan. is an important factor in the in
vestment demand, especially as the
amount will be in excess of last year S
payments.
The Savannah morning news., 1903-12-21

The French naval engineer, Renaud,
calls attention to the fact that cap
tive balloon rising to a certain hight
may be employed to discover the pres
ence of rocks beneath the surface of
the water.
Every sailor knows that in certain
parts of the seas shadows can be de-
tected in time by the coloring of the
water so that they can be avoided.
From certain nights shadows are
shown still more plainly. as, for in
stance, from the hills surrounding the
entrance to Brest. From this it fol-
lows that from a captive balloon at a
certain hight above the water, especial
ly in waters containing many sub
marine rocks and tortuous channels,
shadows can be located with the eye,
and better still through photography.
In some localities it will only be
possible to correctly ascertain the chan
nels and shadows by means of a bal
loon. Mr.. Renaud expresses the opin-
ion that the balloon will become an
important part of the equipment Of
survey ships. Richard Guenther,
Consul General.

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
By VIM. T. Williams.

By VIM. T. Williams.
The cotton market was rather quiet
early in the week, but later developed
strength, and advanced eXcitedly.
During the latter half of the week the
excitement was fully as great as at any
time of the long campaign, and was
started by a sudden jump of 20 points
Thursday morning in Liverpool. EARLY
on Saturday prices showed gain for
the week of nearly a cent, but this
was followed by reaction of 10 to 20
points, with a declining tendency at
the close. Final quotations show an
average advance for the week of about
rs points.
Liverpool advanced about As points
for futures, and 3S points for spot cot
ton, closing at the top. New Orleans
closed about 70 points higher, having
reacted a little further after New York
closed. New York was also reported as
weaker after the close. To respond to
the late movement on this side, Liver
pool will have to be at least 10 points
lower Monday morning.
Receipts continue quite heavy the
amount in sight for the week exceed
ing 100000 bales, and as yet there are
no signs of any sudden let up. How
causing a general abandonment of es-
Inmates under 10,50O000 remains to be
seen. OF course, after the holidays the
usual decrease must necessarily be eX-
pected.
Statistically, the strongest feature in
the market is the heavy exports to the
continent; it looks like the continental
spinners are not going to allow any
kind of price deter them from buying
all the cotton they want. Evidently
they pin their faith to the short crop
estimates. There is more talk of a con-
certed effort toward reduction both in
Great Britain and on this side 1t is
said some Southern mills are already
reselling cotton, preferring to realize
the speculative profit in the raw ma
terial.
Speculation is so wild and rampant
that the market has passed quite be-
yond the control of legitimate infiu-
ences. Big operators plunge in lots of
$4,000 or $4,000 bales or more, and a
countless army eagerly follow. One
set after another the shorts are forced
to cover before the tidal wave, and
the bulls say the end is not yet.
The tension is enormous, and it is
probable the ensuing week-ending on
Thursday-will be fraught with highly
sensational developments. The writer
would favor cautious selling at favor
able moments, but with protecting
stop order not too far off.
