ITO this affliction was added, some
years ago, trouble with my heart that
was very painful, accompanied by a
smothering sensation and faintness.
Dyspepsia, also. came to make life
harder to bear. took all sorts OF pat
ent medicines but none of them helped
me for any length OF time.
1.-The doctors frequently told me that
coffee was not good for me; but with
cut coffee felt as II had no break
fast. I finally decided about two years
ago to abandon the use Of coffee en-
tirely, and as had read a great deal
about Postum I concluded to try that
for breakfast beverage.
Il liked the taste Of it and was par
ticularly pleased to notice that 1t did
NOT come up. as coffee used to. The
bad spells with my heart grew less and
less frequent, and finally ceased alto

sick headache for more than a year.

REDUCTIONS BY AMENDMENT

PASSAGE TODAY.
FIRE DEPARTMENT TAX
TO CARE FOR THAT FUND
Sum Of $1,000 is Appropriated, Instead
Of $4,000, Fixed in Original Draft

Revised.

The city council today made three
changes in it's appropriations ordi-
nance, which was passed to its final
adoption this afternoon with these
changes incorporated. The appropria-
lions are less by $4,000 than as shown
by the original draft a week ago. The
appropria tons total s40S00 out Of the
moneys derived from tax levies for the
different fluids.
The most radical change, and that
due to the fact that the city levy for
fire purposes was overlooked and the
full amount needed appropriated, is IN
the fire department For this fund, in
stead OF an appropriation for $4,000,
as made originally. the amount is cut
to $4,000. as the tax levy amounts to
S9,3S7.90, and this, with the $4,000 APP
propriated from the general fund.

year.
The appropriation for salaries Of Of

streets and alleys from $4,000 to $14,-

Mayor Jones and Councilman Her
man are both OF the opinion that the
city attorney. whoever he may be. be
hired by the year, at fixed salary OF
$1,000, instead of permitting him to be
on salary OF 800 per year and then
charge fees for the cases in which he
is employed. Last year, according to
the mayor. the city attorneys bill was
over $4,000, and both the mayor and the
councilman believe that a good attor-
ney can be secured to take charge OF
the c!ty's legal business at much
smaller sum. The appropriations for
salaries and officers. at $500. con-
templates the payment Of $1,000 as sal
airy for the city attorney.
Police Left the Same.
The appropriation for the police de-
partment, in the sum Of $4,000. was
left the same as last year, altho the
present administration expects to make
a saving in this department. despite the
fact that it inherits $1,000 expense from
the preceding administration for the

n1ent appropriation was overdrawn last
year in the sum OF sS12.53. which in

WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW.

New York, June 16-Weekly Cotton Re-
view: otton advanced sharply early in
the week thoua profit-taking and a sharp
natural reaction occurred later. The long
side had become congested on a rise
of nearly 81 4 boIe. Liverpool's spot sales
have continued small. Curtailment of pro
worthy factor.
Trade in cotton goods has continued
Tor the most part quiet Many favorable
rlouS parts of the cotton belt not except
ing Texas. The acreage is unprecedentedly
large and cultivation is unusually thorough
generally clean and a dry May is sup
posed by some to have helped Il good
deal towards the raising Of a big crop.
The short interest in the new crop months
has naturally been reduced on the big rise
ana the discounts too are not so glaring
as they were only a short time ago.
Though rain is desired in many sections
some reports insist that little or no actual
damage has Yet been done by the dry
weather. Three adverse weekly govern
ment weather reports in succession lead
needed in Texas. Oklahoma. Louisiana.
Tennessee and mississippi. Temperatures
of 100 to Jos have prevailed over a wide
range of cotton territory at the South.
The South is not as a rule selling the
next crop. Others are selling them from
time to time and are rounded up every
now and then partly on drought reports
and aggressive bullish operations by New
York. Chicago, New Orleans. Memphis and
Texas people. Spinners and spot houses
have been buying the new crop options
for months past at big and tempting dis
counts created on the assumption that 4
big acreage generous fertiliZing and care
full cultivation would mean a big crop. But
bulls think that the crop has not had a
really good start. that at any rate it is
now late, and that a big crop is indispen-
sable; that if the yield is about 1900. 600
bales it will Justify present prices and II
it is only 1900 600 it will be regarded rs
something very much like a partial fail
ure if not worse. Besides they point out
that the South has become used to IS and
16 cent cotton, and. being more prosper
Gus than ever after selling the two last
crops Tor approximately s1.soa0cO.Oo 900
it is in a position to hold back the next
crop if it is SO disposed. OF late how
ever. rains and the over-bought condition
of the market have led TO lower prices.
SO has heavy liquidation of the old crop
months. They have helped to pull down
the new. On Friday. prizes rallied on dry
weather and maximum temperatures in the
Southwest of 104 to 100 and elsewhere 90
to 105 which are considered bad at this
time of the year.

which promises well for the future. A

chase Of sixty locomotives.
In dry goods. there is more improve

the increased confidence is based upon
the siren 9Th impaired to the situation
by the low stocks and unOE the effect
of bright crop prospects. The actual de-
mand is much below the normal point but
gives evidence of some expansion. The for
eign trade is. however. largely in excess
of last year and this is. next to faroring
| agricultural conditions. the brightest spot
in the whole business situation. The strong
sta tistical position of stocks in first hands
and the notable curtailment in production
which still prevails in dry goods lines
confirm the feeling of confidence In the
quiet. Demand for future delivery is slowly
increasing and selling agents are making
ready for openings of new spring lines in
woolenS. worsteds and underwear. The firm
knowledged sub-normal demand in retail
and jobbing departments Is becoming a
more noticeable feature.
