Poisoning by Primroses.

1t seems incredible that the hand
ling of that pretty and apparently
innocent flower, the primrose, should
poison anybody; but it is fact that
certain persons are susceptible to
this extent. says Lcslc's. A charm
ing lady in a western city has just
been i'll for weeks with painful and
disHguring rash upon her hands, arms
and face, and after trying several
physicians, who could not diagnose
her case, discovered at last that her
Havoritc primroses, fresh punches Of
which were placed about her house
every day during the season, were
to blame for it. a girl in her flor
lists shop suffers every year from the
same trouble. 1t is like the straw
berry and sea food poisons, which
fortunately, as in this case, affect
comparatively few persons. Deco
sionally nasturtiums produce SINH
lar effect.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. Ii
Nationwide prohibition Is bound to
come, but just wien | cannot tell"
declared Senator Borah Of Idaho, in
an address at mass meeting here
to further the campaign for a consti-
tutional acendment for national pro-
hibition. Senator BoraE urged his
hearers to keep up the fight and said
he would lend his support. He pre-
dicted that labor troubles would con-
tinue until prohibition was an ac!
complished fact.
Representative NJ. Clyde Kelly Of
Pennsylvania, said he was in entire
sympathy with the movement for a
constitutional amendment.
Senator Sheppard introduced the
proposed constitution amendment IN
The senate. The galleries We're only
half full, but his address in support
of the amendment was plnctuated
with outbnrsts Of applause. which
Vice President Marshall made no cf-
fort to stop.
prohibition will embrace the
United States within comparatively
short time" said Senator Sheppard.
The movement is 50 strong through
out the nation that nothing in the
world can prevent its ultimate COM
plete SUCCESS"
Senator Sheppard declared "thc
only safe way to handle the liquor
traffic is to destroy IT,"

the education Of the general public
to the end that sanitary reforms will
not only be accepted but will also be

Slow Progress.
"Our slow progress in the direc'

due to the fact that the people have

Gals. Neither have they demanded
Legislation and appropriations which
are essential to the successful prose

are two main causes for the paucity
of sanitary Legislation, public indtf'
ference and economic opposition.

All Options Break Into New
Low Ground for the Season.

There was another slump in the cotton
market yesterday. prices touching the
lowest level reached since last fall, with
heavy offerings on both sides OF the mar
kct Selling was particularly active in
the late trading. when there were rumors
that long straddles were being lquidated
IN the near months. aided in their in
fuencc by reports OF labor troubles in
Lancashire. talk of easier Southern spots
and reports of showers IN the Southwest.
An easier turn in Liverpool just before
the close there gave ground for the i'm
preston that the English market. after
having held steady for several weeks,
was beginning TO take all unfavoraoie
view of the situation. The selling OF old
crop positions on the late break. however.
was regarded az too general to be entirely
FOR long account. and an extension OF the
short interest might become source of
strength II liquidation should slacken or
the expected May notices fail to cause
weakness Southern spot markets were
unchanged to isc lower and the local mar
ket dropped 10 points to l2Ooc for mid
ding upland. no sales. Local contract
prices.
