TRADE IMPROVES
Weather Has Bad Effect on
Handicapped Reduction
in Egg Prices

Morris avenue yesterday was some
what buster than ON the previous day.
but the demand is not yet up to eN-
pectations. The unreasonable weather
of the past few days has been a great
factor in the lassltude that pervades
the buying end of the market, and al
though prices are now steady, the
market generally is not any too firm.
The only feature of yesterdays trad
ing was a reduction of = cent in the
price OF creamery butter. making this
product now S6 cents a pound
If the present weather continues a
drop in the price of eggs is confidently
expected. The supply in the last few
days has taken on a new squirt, while
the demand has maintained its normal
strength. Prices now range from 81 a
sac and the market tends downward.
Produce men say the supply of Ice
has been replenished in their stores al
ready this week and unless winter re-
gains lost prestige and supplants the
springlilxe weather of the last few days
they will lose money. The demand is
only fair and the supply normal.

z TO APPOINTS NET
ADVANCE IN COTTON
The Market Comparatively
Quiet; Buying Checked
by Ginning Returns

New York, January 20.-Cotton was COM
paratively quiet today. The buying move
ment, which has recently shown itself
on more bnllish view ON general trade
conditions and reports of an improved
spot demand, appeared to be checked by
rather heavier private ginning returns
than expected, but no important selling
pressure developed and prices closed
steady at net advance of to points.
The market opened steady at unchanged
prices to a decline of points. There
appeared to be few overnight selling
orders which were attributed to yester-
days ramors of large ginning returns and
an apprehension that yesterdays freer Of
ferings of March might mean reduction
in leading long lines. otherwise there was
little pressure against prices, and the
market soon rallied on short covering,
and buying, inspired by steady Liverpool
cables, more bullish private advices from
Manchester and continued reports of
good southern spot demand.
Active months sold about to points
net higher during the middle of the morn
ing. but prices turned easier shortly after
midday on private report that 13,545,0oo
bales had been ginned to January 16. This
evidently indicated a heavier ginning for
the first part of January than had been
anticipated. and caused some scattering
liquidation, while there was also a little
selling from Memphis. Offerings were
readily taken on a reaction of or I
points from the mornings high level,
however, and the market later rallied on
renewed covering or little bullish sup
port.
Al other private ginning report, issued
later in the day, made the ginning to jan
uary 16 1353o,O0O bales. or a shade under
the earlier figures. which may have been
disappointment to some of the midday
sellers. Southern spot advices continued
bullish in late trading. and some attention
was attracted by rumors of a spot short
interest for January shipments.

MESSAGE LEADS TO
SPURT OF BUYING
RumOr Huerta About to Re-
sign Also Has Effect in
New Orleans

New Orleans, January 20.-The cotton
market had a good undertone today, but
no great buying power. Accounts from
the spot market were the main underlying
influence and they were bullish The long
side, however, made little attempt to take
advantage of them.
President Wilson's message was con-
sidered favorable to trade in general and
led to a squirt of buying late in the ses-
sion. feature of the morning session
was the report that Huerta was about
to resign the presidency of Mexico and
turn the government over to commits
sion. This resulted in buying when the
market was at the lowest levels of the
day.
Chief bearish influences were poor
cables and private bureau reports show
ing over 100000 bales of cotton ginned
during the period between January 1 and
January 16.
The market opened steady at a loss of 2
to points on the poor Liverpool market
and stood at a decline of about points
in the early trading on gossip concerning
ginning. Late in the morning the market
acted rather soft, but Mexican news
braced it up. The most strength was dis
played late in the day when trading
months were points over yesterday $
last quotations. The close was steady at
a net gain of to points.

CLOSE STEADY IN
SPITE OF BULGE
Bearish Prospects for Win
ter Crop Has More Than
Counter Influence

Chicago, January e0-Bearish pros
poets for the winter crop in the United
States always had more than counter
balancing influence in the wheat market
today. There was an effort to uplift prices
because of unusually cold weather as5
lack of snow protection in western
Europe.
Despite an early bulge the close was
steady as the same as last night, to a
shade decline tonight
Other speculative articles all showed a
net loss, corn asc to sc. oats lsc to l4c
and provisions 7l5c to 1sjSc
Surprise over unexpected strength at
Liverpool gave the wheat market ten
deney at first to bulge.
After shorts had covered the buying
furry ceased and traders took more notien
of domestic advices, particularly the
Ohio state report, which estimated the
condition of winter wheat TO be 4C1
against 80 one year before.
hadlcal depression in the value of RED
winter grades at Toledo was regarded as
significant and was coupled with news
from Kansas City that red winter prem
iulns there We're fading away on account
- y, SiS haii VI tle receipts being OF
that grade.
Smallness of arrivals northwest acted
as a check on the wheat bars. Blizzard
weather in that direction was expected
TO reduce further the amount of fresh
supplies.
In the corn crowd belief that colder
weather, although tending to increase the
demand for feed, would soon start shelter,
again to work, led to heavy snellers tolls

CREDIT TO WHOM
CREDIT IS DUE

Some three months ago my wife was
attacked with something like eczema on
her feet and ankles which terrified her
night and day.
I consulted and employed one of
Bfrm;ngham's most noted regular ply
stcianB to treat her. and he continued
to do so for two or three weeks, bue she
grew worse continuously. Large sores
made their appearance on her feet and
ankles, and becoming discouraged 1
suggested the propriety of consulting a
specialist In regards to her condition.
My suggestion was ridiculed, and 1 was
advised to do nothing of the sort, but
acting upon my own impulse. I carried
my wife to Drs. Dozier & Dozier. and
placed her under their treatment
Their first prescription gave her re-
lief and in short time resulted in a
complete cure.
I, therefore, make this statement. be-
lieving that I but do justice to the doc
tors who cured her, and hereby give
nv consent to Drs. Dozier & Dozfer to
publish this statement or use it as thew
may deem proper for the benefit Of any
others who may be similarly afflicted.

TALKS ON THRIFT

cooperate SO far as present duties per.
NIT. 1t Is apparent that> the departure
from simple living standard, especially
by the middle classes endeavoring to en-
ulate the very wealthy, is having a dele
terious effect upon our national life
Governor George w. P. Hunt Of Arizona
An Illinois newspaper short time ago
printed across the top of its editorial
page this slogan: Demand causes high
prices. Individual retrenchment is the
only effectual individual defense"
This means that, in the opinion of that
editor, there is no immediate prospect of
halt In the steady rise of prices, and
that the only way to beat the high cost
of living Is to stop living so high.
An increasing number of citizens are in
uine thrift and old-fashioned saving are
becoming more popular than they have
been in these latters years of eXtrava-
CANT living In this country.
A greater number of persons than ever
before Is now making determined effort
to meet the greater demands on the
pocketbook by earning more and by saw
ing more. SO that stored up money at
interest In the bank or elsewhere may
help defray the constantly heavier ex-
penses.
Two young men. one in receipt of wages
of $12 q week and another Of twice that
amount. each eat in the same restaurant

appearance. and each of them Is reg1-
larly broke" at the end OF the week.
Evidently the actually necessary expan-
ditures of the two cannot be very differ
ent. but the ratio Of the wages each re-
ceives is vastly different.
II the one with the larger income does
not save anything. the fault lies with him
more than the high cost Of living.
The man who spends everything he
makes when ne gets 5000 a year is very
apt to spend everything he makes when
his income Is $4,000 year. without re-

MESSAGE HAS LITTLE
| EFFECT ON STOCKS
Market Moves in Same Ir-
regular Way; Small Gains
in Representatives

. New York January 0.-President Will
sons recommendations to Congress re-
garding the antitrust legislation were of
, little effect on the stock market Fol
several days previously speculation was
ourtailed and traders marked time peiid-
ing publication of the message. 1t was
assumed that the message would have an
important part in shaping speculative
sentiment, but the action of the market
was disappointing to those who looked
for an immediate response. After the
message appeared the market moved in
the same irregular way as during the
1revious portion of the session, closing
with small gains for representative stocks.
The apathetc attitude of the market
probably was due to the fact that the
message contained no important features
for which the street was not prepared.
Advices from Washington since the Pres
ident's return from the south indicated
the position he was expected to take, and
1t was these indications which were pri-
marily responsible for last weeks ad-
vance in the market The message close
ly paralelled forecasts, and traders found
in it no new features which they could
SEIZE upon lOf OASIS 1Or operations. 1t
vas thought that later, when sufficient
time had elapsed for more careful study
of the message and crystalization of senti-
nent the effect upon the market might
be more pronounced
At the outset the market was slightly
lower, but movements We're unusually
narrow throughout the early session.
Following publications of the Presidents 5
message prices rose for a time but when
1t became apparent that little progress
could be made in that direction traders
sold the market on the theory that the
effect of the message had been discounted
Prices were sent down to the low level of
the day, but in the last hour they were
bid up strongly.
Reading again reflected persistent re-
alizing such as has been in progress f,,r
several days. Canadian Pacific was af-
rected by European selling and for tiinc
showed loss of more than points. Pc
troleum shares, particularly Mexican,
were strong.
Bonds We're firm. Government, muni-
eipal and some second and third grada
mortgages we're conspicuously strong.

Cleopatra was not the only person who

paratively recently they were used medi-
cinally In the west, and still appear In

to one Chinese authority q pearl, after

of three or four feet. Make 1t into pills
and swallow them-henceforth food will
