PRICE ON The JUMP
The DIME IN SIGHT.
Soaring Went Values at a
Clip.
HALF A CENT IS THE NET GAIN
Bullish News Sends Prices OF Cot
ton to The Highest Point in Weeks.
Americus Buyers Pay Advance OF
Hall a Gent on Monday.

Almost to ten cents pound went the
price of cotton at bound yesterday,
and as the ticker told the Geographic
tidings the face of the man behind the
cotton bale was study. In two big
bounds the market leaped three-fourths
of cent upward.
Close to the dime notch it rested, and
may go beyond it today.
There will be no more nine cents cot
ton this season. Ten cents or better
will soon be the cry, and the farmer
who has the confidence to bide his time
and wait will get it.
AT the opening of the market yester-
day there was gain of % points, and
this balloOning was continued through
out the day until, at the close, spot
cotton sold in Americas at 90 cents or
better, and was hard to buy at that
fancy figure.
And there was joy in cotton circles
all along the line.
The recent tornado along the gull
coast destroyed uncounted thousands
of bales cotton in the fields. To this
calamity is added the general crop de-
terioration, as shown by the ginners
report. Price, also, issued a very bull
lish circular.
This advance yerterday puts spot
cotton full cent higher than it was a
week ago, and ten cents will soon be
the figure demanded.

Wounds, Bruises and Burns.

By applying an antiseptic dressing to
wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries
before inflammation sets in, they may
be healed without maturation and in
about one-third sof the time required by
the old treatment. This is the greatest
discovery and triumph of modern sur
gerry. Chamberlain's Pain Balm acts
on this same principle. It Is an anti
septic and when applied to such injuries
causes them to heal very quickly. 1t
allays the pain and soreness and pre-.
vents any danger of blood poisoning.
Keep a bottle of Pain Balm in your
home and it will save you time and
money, not to mention The inconven-
fence and suffering such injuries entail.

miles west of Americus,is to be sold or
