HoW's Your Hair?
5owditch; Webster & Co. Announce
That They Have at Last Secured
Cure for Hair Troubles.

We beg to announce to the people Of
Augusta that we have secured the
agency for one of the greatest discov-
cries OF recent years. We refer to the
prescription of Sir Erasmus Wilson M.
D., Englands most successful special
list in diseases of the scalp, who was
knighted for his many successes in the
treatment of skin and scalp. Upon the
death of DR.. Wilson this prescription
was secured by American chemists and
is now offered to the public under the
name of Dr. Wilson's English Life to
the Hair. This preparation will grow
hair on bald heads even after all else
fails. Unlike other hair preparations
it is not sticky or greasy, but gives a
live and glossy appearance to the hair
Miss Cornelia Stevens, Smith Ave-,
Boston, Mass, says: CDR. Wilson's
English Life to the Hair grew a mag
nihcent head of hair for me after I
was told that l was becoming hopeless
ly bald. My hair now reaches nearly
to my waist and is heavy and glossy.
I cannot too highly recommend it," If
you are growing bald, troubled with
eruptions. dandruff, scales or any scalp
troubles try DIR. Wilson's Life to the
Hair. Albert Chemical Co.. Boston,

Pound-Cranberri and Sweet
Potatoes Are In Sharp
Demand

Members of the produce exchange of
Los Angeles were afforded another en-
tertainment of interest at the call ses-
sion of the board yesterday when rival
dealers in the potato market got to play
ing the game There was very little
doing until Caller Holmes struck the
potato section of the board. Then the
commission men and brokers We're made
to sit up and take notice. Oflerings of
to $l.45, with no sales, although bids
were made for ten carloads at d421a.
That seemed to be the limit for the
house that annexed eight carloads
Wednesday at $1.4O and Sl.421s.
Later five carloads of Diamond Joe
brand of Burbanks on track were sold
lat $l.45.
Brokers assert that there is no occasion
for extra comment over the desire TO
buy spuds but the dealers generally
make the activity of potatoes subject
of general gossip.
Other sales of the morning were five
sacks of garlic at sac pound; five
barrels of cranberries at S11 a barrel, and
fifty sacks of sweet potatoes at Sl654
.1.70.
Trade was brisk in the market. To-
matoes are weaker, jobbing at 4Od50c;
peas, &c; beans. &C. cucumbers, SIPS box;
lemons, $3.50 to $3.50 a box.
Predictions are made that turkeys viii
retail at 35c a pound for dressed stock
before Thanksgiving day. Jobbing prices
now are 24025e for live turkeys; 26lD2Ic
for dressed turkeys. The present sup
plies appear sufficient for the demand.

AGES OPERATORS
Hill People Attempt to checkmate

Standard Oil Stocks.
Money Is Quiet
Bv Associnted press-


NEW YORK, Nov. 2s.-The unsettled
and irregular tone Of the stock market
continued In evidence today. The uncer.
tainty of the price movement discouraged
operators and the consequence was
dun and sluggish tendency AS is usua
in neglected market there was enough
selling by tired holders to cause an under
tone of depression.
The downward movement was neither
universal nor marked. There were strong
spots in the list but they were among
the least influential stocks. Nearly al
the stocks were selling at low prices in
the market, many of them not paying
dividends.
The stiffness OF the money rate offers
plausible grounds for favor toward low
priced stocks. To carry them on the
market requires a much smaller sum OF
money. while a movement of a point in
the price offers as large a profit on spec
ulative holdings as would result from a
similar movement In the very high priced
stocks.
There was a story of Hill buying Mis-
souri,. Kansas & Texas to account for
the rise in those stocks, said to be for
strategical move against the Hartman
control of Illinois Central

The evidence of realizing in Union Pa
cific was of more effect on sentiment.
The only explanation offered for 1t was
the assertion that the forthcoming an
only routine official document rather
than a brilliant exponent of the road S
future, as the spectators have been con-
tending for some time.
The heaviness of Union Pacific had an
additional influence from the fact that
the decline in Standard Oil shares on the
curb market was resumed, the price
yielding at one time to 500. Supporters of
stocks had to contest also with the ef-
feet of further realizing in Great North
ern preferred and the fall in the price
Of ore certificates, which were dealt in
on the curb when issued.
The call money market showed no sign
of disturbance. The market for time
loans. however. was characterized as
stringent and brokers reported that the
market was practically bare of offerings.
The estimates of the weeks currency
movement proved unsatisfactory to those
who had been counting on a large cash
gain, none of the computers showing
more than a million gain in cash by the
banks. OF this the sub-treasury opera
tions account for nearly half a million
dollars. Last week the gain on the in
terror movement was in the neighborhood
of million dollars A turn in the cur
rent at the expense of New York is
therefore indicated.
