Cooper's claim that the human stom-
ach is degenerate is distinctly veri-
fed
"One of the most unusual state
ments was made by Mr.. C. w. Woods,
of 1913 South Highland Street. He
said: For four years my wife was in
very poor health. She was weak and
thin. with a hectic flush and cough.
Physicians said she had consumption,
and [ was inclined to believe them.
1t certainly looked as though her
days were numbered, and there APP
peared to be very little ground for
hope.
Shortly after Mr.. Cooper came to
Pittsburg | began to hear of wonder
full results that had been obtained by
persons who had tried his medicine,
so l got some for my wife. She had
taken it only two days when she was
relieved of tapeworm AZ feet long.
She began to improve immediately
has gained seven pounds since she
began taking the medicine. She
feels splendid and looks very much
better. If any one doubts this state
ment | would be pleased to have them
call at my house and verify it,"

COTTON CLOSED AT
SHARP NET LOSSES
Local Buyers and Sellers
Apart in Price Views.

Though stimulated by a somewhat
publish ginners' report and b va firm
Liverpool, the cotton market yester-
day closed the session with sharp
losses. The government report plac-
ed the amount of cotton ginned to the
middle OF this month at 1927 900
bales, which was some $4,000 gain
since the figures for Jan. l. The
market responded by opening II to
II points up for the active months, but
in little while turned lower. Prices
gradually yielded during the morn
ing, with occasional rallies of small
proportions, but in the afternoon the
active positions were very weak Some
recovery was made before the close.
1t was rumored that the recent bull
pool was closing out their holdings
and the trailers lost heart. Stop loss
orders were caught as the market de-
clined, accelerating the downward
movement.
The New York market opened
points down for July, but II to II
points up for other active positions.
Prices worked lower by small grada-
ton until in the afternoon, when the
decline became more rapid Cover
ing in the last hour lifted values 5
to 9 points from the lowest, the close
being barely steady, 1 4 to 10 points
net lower for the day Spot prices
were marked down 80 points New
Orleans opened l to 13 points up for
the active months and ruled nervous
during the morning In the afternoon
decline set in which left prices at
the close II to Is points below the
final for Wednesday. Spot quotations
were unchanged.
Liverpool opened 1 point lower to
1 point higher. Little change was
made during the session, the close
being steady, unchanged to 1 point
above the close for Wednesday. Spot
prices were advanced 2 points, the
sales being 5000 bales.
Buyers and sellers were so far
apart in their price views in the local
spot market that business was prac-
tically suspended. The losses in the
controlling markets resulted in an
unwillingness among buyers to take
on supplies except at material re-
auctions from the values recently pre-
vailing, while the holders were firm
in their views. The quotations are
reduced IA of cent in all grades

WIVES PLEDGED
JEWELS FOR CASH
Helped Husbands in Recent
Financial Stress.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-(SpeciaD-
Stories are being told of how jew
els helped out things a bit for har-
raised husbands in the days when
800 in cash looked bigger than a
81 900 check
In at least one instance the owner of
a well-filled jewel case found to her
surprise that in this city the women
who have the largest amount of easily
got at cash are not always the best
known. Oftener than not they are
the women who pay little attention to
style and who live perhaps in rooms
in one of the tenements they them
selves own and who like to keep half
a dozen savings bank books in COM
mission-Women who once a month
at least have string of cash poured
into their laps, for few tenement
dwellers pay their rent by check.
In one of the tales referred to a
money lender Of this class figured
prominently A woman of reputed
wealth, after watching her husbands
anxious face across the dinner table
and hearing him declare that he
would give a good big bonus for the
use of $4,000 in cash for few hours
racked her brains for some means of
helping him She recalled a state
ment of her dressmaker that when
ever she got in a tight place she
borrowed from her sister, who lived
near Tenth avenue in tenement she
herself owned and was rolling in
wealth.
Help from the DreSsmaker.
Calling up her dressmaker she got
the wealthy sisters address, and TAX
ing with her a diamond and pearl
necklace worth five times $4,000 drove
early next morning over to Tenth
avenue, and before noon had the sum
mentioned and the promise of an
other thousand if she required it. The
sister of the dressmaker could not
herself lend another thousand, but
she knew a woman living not far
away for such excellent security and
an equally liberal bonus would be
glad enough to lend that sum.
The extra thousand, however, was
not needed and in few days the
necklace was back in its owners
keeping. The borrower then told the
story to some of her friends, with
holding the money lenders name by
the latter's request.

FOUND TRUE REMEDY
Cure Indigestion.
DOdsOn's Pharmacy Sure Mi-O-na win

In no other way can you SO quick
ly, so readily and so positively stimu-
late the stomach to good health as by
using Mona. Dodson's Pharmacy
feels so sure that this remedy will
restore to health every person suffer
ing with stomach troubles that they
sell it under guarantee to refund
the money unless it cures. This
shows conclusively it's superiority over
the ordinary old-fashioned digestives.
The underlying cause of most ner-
vous debility, headaches, sleepless-
ness and melancholy is faulty nutri-
ton, the result of a weakened stom-
ach and inactive bowels. Mi-o-na
strengthens stomach muscles, regu-
lates the bowels and thus makes the
digestion easy and natural.
A 507cent box of Mi-o-na lasts a
couple of weeks, AMI will ward off
a dozen attacks of Indigestion and
bring good health to the weakest
stomach. 22-24-29
