HOT TEA BREAKS
A COLD--TRY THIS

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee" at
any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful
of the tea, put a cup of boiling water
upon it, pour through q sieve and
drink a teacup full at any time. 1t is
the most effective way to break a cold
and cure grip, as it opens the pores,
relieving congestion. Also loosens
the bowels, thus breaking a cold at
once.
1t is inexpensive and entirely vege-
table, therefore harmless.

again become normal after the holi-
days and work is being resumed in

Liverpool shows a daily larger rate
of spot sales. Recent information
from there laid stress on the fact
that mills had hardly any reserves and
consequently must draw steadily from
Liverpool. As stock there is probably
all hedged, the re-buying Of hedges
against spot sales is having bullish
effect as shown again today by an
advance in futures 10 points above
what they we're due on our markets.
Our side is likely to experience the
same bullish effect as soon as a spot
demand develops, for the reason that
much Of the spot holdings has been
hedged by the sale Of futures during
the decline in December. Nearly every
spot purchase will mean re-buying
Of futures and as sellers may become
progressively scarce on any bullish
outlook, the effect Of spot demand on
the contract markets would be immed.

hastened out of sight. He didn't turn
quick enough however to prevent his
number being taken, which was phon-
