New York Cotton.

New York. Aug. 25.-The cotton
market had the most active and ex-
cited opening of the season this morn
ing with first prices showing an ad-
vance Of 23@31 points over last
nights closing figures. Liverpool fol-
lowed sensationally strong cables with
buying orders around the local ring.
while there was a further broadening
Of general demand, with bullish sent-
ment evidently stimulated by the con-
tinued dry weather in the Southwest
and reports of unexpected heavy crop
deterioration in some Eastern belt
sections. December contracts sold at
15.55c and January at 15,57c On the
call, and while realizing was heavy
enough to cause reactions of 10 or -
points right after the opening, the
market held within 5 or points of
the best toward the end of the first
hour.
Reports that preliminary returns to
one of the crop reporting bureaus in

DROPSY SPECIALIST
Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very
harmful. Just plain mulsifed cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and entirely grease
less), is much better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily,
and removes every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsi6ed cocoanut oil at
most any drug store. It is very cheap.
and few ounces is enough to last
everyone in the family for months.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Aug. 25.-The continu-
ed rise of prices in the English mar
ket caused heavy sympathetic buying
of cotton in this market in the early
trading today on which prices rose 26
OPS points to new high levels for the
season. October was sent to 15.12c,
the highest level on record for that
option.
Reports of private bureau condi-
ton estimate of only 651 per cent of
a normal sent the price to still higher
levels. By noon the trading months
were 41@43 points or 90 bale and
more over yesterdays close. The
March position touched 15.70c
Bullish traders predicted 16c cotton
for the coming week.

vance of 51@53 points. The range:

DANISH SENATE
OPPOSES SALE

Washington, Aug. "a. Senator
Stone. chairman of the senate foreign
relations committee, announced that
action of the Danish landesthing in
rejecting the proposal to sell the
Danish West Indies to the United
States would make no difference in
the attitude of the United States or
cause any delay in the effort to have
the treaty ratified here as soon as
possible.
"The action of the Danish upper
house of parliament" said Senator
Stone, "does not mean a final rejec-
