COTTON SPECULATOR QUITS

Theodore II. Price, the veteran speculator in
cotton, may be influenced only by desire for the
welfare of his child when he resolved to give VI
the market for a couple of years at least, and il
may be merely a coincidence that his cotton
commitments amounting to thousands OF bales
of the May cotton, will net him considerable
loss and that he would be glad to liqudate them
in any case. 1t is commented upon as significant
in the street that Mr., Price is selling his horses
and carriages and is disposng of his country
home at Tuxedo, surrounded by 10000 acres OF
land. There would be no necessity for disposing
of these at sacrifice, the gossips say, II he was

"A young woman came to our city

told us that she had scabies (the itch),
incipient paresis, rheumatism. ETC.,
brought on from exposure. Her poor
body was a mass Of sores from scratch

food. We worked hard we her for seven
weeks but we could see little improve

Cuticura Soap and a bottle Of Cuti-
cura Resolvent, and we bathed our
patient well and gave her a full dose
OF the Resolvent. She slept better that
night and the next day ! got a box Of

young woman was able to look for a
position, and shells o strong and well.

There are hundreds Of cases

who have money in the banks and are
looking for investment in lands. No
investment Is better or safer. Take,
for instance, the lands in Western Can.
ada that can be bought at from $40 to
SIS per acre which yield a revenu
equal to and often greater than their
original cost. Those lands make a
certain investment. During the past
two months large investments in
these lands have been made, some in
tending to use the lands for farming
purposes Of their own. Others to re-
sell to farmer friends. The agents OF
the Government Of Canada located at
different points throughout the United
States have in their possession par
ticulars Of districts in which there are
