Tho bulls offered the mar ket good support which offset short selling from the bears, who were im- pressed by the number of men idle in England and by the weather map, which was again dry. At the end Of the first half hour prices were BOT points over yesterdays close.
 The market had very steady tone throughout the morning, although it Was rumored at one time that cer- tain interests that have been follow ing the bull side were taking profits at every opportunity. Reports by wire were received from nearly all the States cotton belt and they show ed that farm work is we'll behind ever the best part of the cotton re- zion. This offset any bearish senti- ment based on the strikes in Eng land. At noon prices were 9011 points over yesterdays close.

 + HOT WEATHER IS QUICK < + TO AFFECT THE BOWELS 's
Well.knOwn Fact That Extreme Heat COnduceS to Chronic Constipation.

The disposition to eat cold food and indulge in iced drinks is one reason why constipation and diarrheoa is so prevalent in summer, and there is no time when people should more care fully avoid bowel disturbances, as much serious disease is directly trace able to these conditions. We need all of our strength to withstand the ener- vating effect of heat.
 To regulate the bowels and quickly relieve even the most aggravated case of constipation, the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pep sin, is highly recommended by all those who have ever used it. Unlike cathartics and violent purgatives, Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin acts gently on the stomach, liver and bowels, without gripping or other discomfort, bringing relief in an easy, natural manner. It can be used with perfect safety by the most delicate woman or child, and yet is equally effective for the strongest constitution. Mild, pleasant to take, and inexpensive, it is the ideal family laxative. By cleans ing the bowel tract thoroughly and eliminating the foreign matter and poisons that irritate and inflame, It will quickly check summer diarrhoea and restore normal conditions.
 Druggists sell pr. Caldwells sy- rup Pepsin for fifty cents bottle-a larger, family size costs one dollar Get a bottle and keep it ill the house; it will save many times its cost Ill doctor bills. A free trial bottle, post paid, can be obtained by writing te pr. w. B. Caldwell, 406 Washington 1 St., Monticello, Illinois.

 The market was dull but steady the morning through. A lttle busi- ness was done in July, which showed more strength than any other month on the board and lent color to the bullish gossip afloat concerning tha delivery. One story was that spo houses hold over 30,0OO bales of Ions July and will be obliged to ask fol delivery of the actual stuff in orie, to cover sales they have made tr mills. In the trading up to nool prices went 6@10 points over Satur. days final quotations.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portions of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin- ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have rum bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflamma- tion can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hear ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca tarrh, which is nothing but an in- flamed condition of the mucous sur faces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir culars, free.
