Cotton Letter.

Americua, GA March 29.-The mar
ket, after showing nGrv usness and q
slightly nervous temperament, deve,-
oped weakness end by noon had lost IL
points. the whole list being weak, with
drawal of bull snrpor, leav ng prices
to drift to lower basis and encourag-
ing some short selling of all positions
Cables were few; Liverpool spot sales
were good and Manchester a3vices sat
isfactory, and yet there was general
lndIsposltion TO take any part except
on the bear side. Bad weather con-
ditiors were encouraging to bulls early
in the day, but later it was rumored
that more or less cotton was coming to
this port from New Orleans and Savan-
nah which might be delivered en- May
c)ntrac 8 and this did much to with
draw support from all quarters. ALI
though there was no confirmation of
the report, another report was that
the South was Offering more freely of
stI1ct low middliug, butthere was moth
ing to show that this was anything
more than an isolated instance. The
general disposition was to sell, but this
was mainly owing to the withdrawal of
the bull clique for the time being. Liv-
crpool is due to come to lower to-
morrow. j. s. MOREE & Co,

Not Worth
The Living.
Sorry Condition of MANY Today. Lib.
eraI Offer BY J. c. podson.

Those who never have any stomach
troubles and whose digestion is like
that of an ostrich cannot possibly
understand the sorry condition of many
in Amerie US today.
Life does not seem worth the living {:
they bear up with nervous irritation,
sleeplessness, pain and misery in the
stomach, headaches, and nave con-
slant fear chat what tn y eat is going
to disagree with them and causes still
greater distress.
In Mi-o-na there is a remedy that
restores the functions of the digestive
system, revives tagging nutrition, and
aids in the assimilation OF food. This
remedy soothes and heals the irritated
and infamed walls of the stomach,
strengthens the nerve centers of the di-
gestive system, and makes permanent
and positive cure IN all forms of stom-
ach trouble, excepting cancer.
D0dson's Pharmacy makes a very
liberal offarin connection with Mi o-na,
giving guarantee with every so cent
box they sell that If the remedy does not
give satisfaction, it will cost nothing.
Begin it's use at once, and see how
quickly you will get relief.

CONSUMPTION
PREvENTABLE
DIsINFECTIoN IMPoRrANr.
Results Obtained in a Large institution.

The Importance of disinfection is shown
by the results obtained at the Brooklyn
Home for Consumptives, the finest institu-
ton of the kind in New York. A letter
from the President is quoted:
'We have used Platt's Chlorides in the
Brooklyn Home for Consumptives for more
than ten years, and find it not only COM
fort but necessity. Through its use we
defy the germs to make any inroads on
the nurses and employees who are in con-
slant attendance upon the sick. one hun
bred OF whom are now in the institution.
One nurse has been there well on to ten
years, asocond almost as long, and not one
person ever employed in the Home has de-
veloped lung trouble. Mrs. S. V. White,
President, Kingston Ave-, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Platts Chlorides is an odorless, colorless
liquid disinfectant which instantly removes
any foul odors and destroys disease-breed-
ing matter. A quart bottle will last an
average family a month and it can. be
obtained at all druggists.

The Right Idea.

One would think The Laxative idea in
a cough syrup should have been ad :
vaneed long before it was. Itseems the
only rational remedy for Coughs and
Colds would be to move tho bowels and
clean the mucous membranes of the
throat and lungs at the same time.
Kennedy's Laxative Honey and Tar
does this. It is the Original Laxati We
Cough Syrup, the best known remedy
for Coughs, Colds, Group, Wnooping
Cough, etc. Tastes good and harmless.

be Travelled With boats and in vehicles.
The cellars OF all the stores on the north
side OF Old street are flooded with back
water from the river. The Petersburg
Crystal Ice Factory, located near the
wharf, was compelled to shut down yes
terdsy on account OF water ia The boiler
room being knee deep. The APpoma,-

which is stored 600 TINS of ksuite, valued
al about 5000, is filled with water
three feel deep. Last night the river
was still rising, and the water 10 within
few feet of the Union Depot. All oil
the tracks of the A'lsnlic Coast Line and

late on account of washouts. Tracks
generally have been much damaged, and

more serious consequence have resulted
and that there has been no loss OF life.

cloudbursls, in Wilkes and Surrey coun.
