Il Petr6leo no es IN sdstituto
del Aceite de HigadO
de BacaIao

Durante la presente escaseZ de acei-
e de higado de bacalao. algunos in
dustriales han hecho grandes esfuer-
EOS para popularizar en- provecho pro-
pio el uso del petr6leo 6 parafna co
mo substantial alimenticia.
Bastante ridfculo es en- verdad, por
no califcarlo de otro modo, Ell asegu-
rar que Ell petr6leo puede SUBSTITUTE
al aceite de higado de bacalao.
La gran reputation de que goza ell
aceite de higado de bacalao es debida
sus grandes. propiedades nutritivas
alimenticias. En- verdad ell aceite
de higado de bacalao no solamente es
un alimento, sino que es el mejor ali
mento que Sc conoce en- Medicina Y
a1n no Sc -ha podido encontrar en- la
naturaleza otro alimento igual. y
anunciar Ell petr6leo como IN substi-
tuto del aceite de higado de bacalao,
contribuir al petroleo parafna pro-
piedades que no tiene. El petr6leo ca
rece de la propiedad esencial de todo
alimento, es decir, la de ser asimila-
BILE. Ell petr6leo 8 parafina no sola-
| mente no es una substantial asimilable,
sino que cuando Sc toma interiormente
es expelidO en- su totalidad pOr las
evacuaciones intestinales, causando
| indigestion, irritaci6n del estomago y
de los intestinos, Intermediates del hi
gado y del pancreas con frecuencia
diarrea desinteria.
La presente escasez del aceite de hi
gado de bacalao es un case sxcepcio-
nal que no durara mucho tempo, pero
que ha demostrado va la gran deman-
da que constantemente hay en- el mum
90 por este producto alimenticio. Mi
les de personae i6venes y ancianos,
usan cOnstantemente este aceite Y su
salud su vida dependen de 81.
Afortunadamente la mayor parte del
aceite de bacalao que Sc consume en
Ell mundo es administrado bajo la for
ma de Emulsion de Scott prepara-
ra por los senores Scott 81 Bovine
Qufmicos de Nueya York, quienes de-
bido sus muchos amos de experien-
cia en- la materia, vieron venir Ia es-
casez con muchos meses de anticipa-
ci6n 8 hicieron grandes acopios del
aceite, aunque para clio tuvieron que
pagar precios enormes. ESQ no obs
tante el precio corriente al detalle de
la Emulsion Gle Scott no ha sido alte-
rado y puede obtenerse en- las boticas
y roguerias al mismo precio de STEM
pre-
El petr6leo Paradna puede ser
bueno para lubricar maquinas i otros
usos industriales. pero la Emulsion
de Scott es Ia dnica buena para el
cuerpo humane.

any morning with the market in the
air The only thing that would IN
duce man to sell short is the pros-
pect of a surplus 1t looks like Il Sc
rious famine rather than surplus
and while trade conditions and q lot
of surroundings operate against the
bull side, it is very different thing IL
be short of the market. There is so
little cotton available that shorts may
haEe to pay fancy prices for their Get
ton when they come to cover. Whom
the market gets sold out it does not
take much buying to start things up
again. 1t is a very difficult market
to make money in. This is likely to
be the case for some time to come.
The new crop planting drags prices
down and a little later every cold wind
or hot wind or no wind at all, will
cause shorts to scramble. This is the
case when the supply of old cotton is
short. 1t will be more than ever the
case this year. For a time we would
like to see October work back to lie.
Port Receipts: To-day 5000 bales,
against 1851 bales last year.
New York Spots: Quiet and 10
points higher: middling upland 1885.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, April 27.-Spot cotton
in good demand at full prices. Sales
$3.50 bales, including 900 to arrive
and 500 fob. Quotations Lie.
The future market opened steady
and prices were from 30S points up.
Liverpool was Unexpectedly good and
New York started the day with good
advance From the opening there
was a good demand for May contracts
in spite of the fact that this is the first
notice day for that month. All notices
were promptly stopped. The Heading
bulls bought heavily and when it was
seen that notice day would not prove
bearish in its effect, prices became
strong on extensive short covering
The reaction followed OH profit-taklnS
by longs, but later there was strong
advance on short covering, both here
and in New York. In the trading May
first advanced 10 points to 1885, de-
clined to 1913, from which there was
a rapid advance to 1890. The market
closed firm, showing net gains of l6M
90 points on the old crop positions and
10 points each on the new.

stocks and Bonds.

New York, April 27.-Today's stock
market was trivial affair, from what
ever standpoint il is viewed. Dealings
fell still further from yesterdays small
total and the tone and the action of
the market were strongly suggestive
of the condition of deadlock prevailing
before the Northern Securities decis-
ion. Narrow and sluggish as today 5
movement was, it passed through sew
eral variations, showing the vacllla-
tons of opinions on the market. Lon
don helped the opening advance mere
by advancing prices or Americans
there but offered no substantial as
sistance of buying stocks in this mar
ket The heavy tone of United states
Steel preferred wds the effective fac
tor checking this advance. The weak
ness of steel had as little explanation
