Cuban DiarrhOea.

U. $. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what this
disease is, and that ordinary remedies
have little more effect than so much
water. Cuban diarrhoea is almost as
severe and dangerous as mild attack OF
cholera. There is one remedy, however,
that can always be depended upon as
will be seen by the following GER
tifcate from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs
of Houston, Texas: al hereby certify
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy cured my husband Of
severe attack of Cuban diarrhOea,
which he brought home from Cuba. We
had several doctors but they did him no
good. One bottle of this remedy cured
him, as our neighbors will testify.

New Orleans, July 5.--The sensation
al surprise in the cotton market today
was the selling by w. H. Brown, the
bull leader, of many thousand of bales OF
July or spot cotton, some fourteen points
below the board quotations. This sell
ing began just after the weekly weather
bureau report was read which was ex-
tremely bullish, and put prices up some
Is points. Brown says that while he is
a bull be takes this mode of saying en-
phatically that prices are going up too
rapidly and faster than any judgment
could wish.
