JOHN +. CLARK s. CO.'S COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, April 29.-First trades here
were at 10 TO - advance and the gain
soon increased to forty points, while New York
opened much 20 down on near positions.
They very bullish weather conditions over
Sunday and bullish dry goods reviews had much
to do with the stronger feeling which prevailed
this morning.
Severe transforms passed through the belt
increasing already unfavorable conditions.
heavy general rainfall occurred over most of
the belt and mperaturesdropped close to
freezing in the northwestern portion, while re-
ports from the Carolinas complain of damage
by rain, hail and cold weather. Map shows
rains continuing over eastern half Of the belt
IndCa tions are 70 rclearing and colder in the
northwC stern quarter of the belt, unsettled
rainy weather for the rest of the belt. There
is further less and delay to progress and de-

ditions as we'll as the buiiish change in the
crop situation. are the basis for mai erial
rallies in the market on the first good news
that may come along. Supply, no matter how
large temporarily, is much easier TO defnd at
this price level if confidence is stimula ted, as
the financial ability Of the south is beyond
question.

SHEPARD AND GLUCKs COTTON LET


NEW ORLEANS. La. April 29.-Strong in
the early session today and weak in the after
noon, cotton moved over very wide range.
Heavy rains in the belt and prospects of more
rain TO come caused buying Gu which the most
active months rose 124 to i52 points above the
level Of saturdays close. From this, in the
afternoon, around the quoting of the spot mar
koi there was severe break which wiped out
all of the gain and replaced the net advance
with q not decline which late in the session
amounted TO 40 to 80 points. Spots were quot
cd 100 points down, but with mtdding at 20. 30
cents, against about pc the price of
May, the time of quoting spots. We can
see no reasons for selling on such an adjust
ment.
Official and private accounts made it plain
that the crop is getting too much rain. Over
Sunday the central and eastern sections Of the
belt experienced a heavy downpour, amount
ing 10 over 6 inches in two days in some To-
cslitics. Fields have bSen washed and plant
ing is being yed. The critical month Of
May is at hand and should the wet spell con-
tinue into it the start OF the new crop would
be anything but favorable. The realization of
the dangers in the new crop situation caused
heavy buying movement.
The braek in the afternoon looked very arti-
fetal There was nothing in the Developments
Of the session to justify it. Such operations
make for 0versold market and the market

NOTHING TO SWALLOW,

Local Druggists Have
 Arranged to Sell 25c, Soc
 or $1.00 Packages on 30 Days Trial

Local druggists report great deal of interest, especially among mothers with small children, in the remarkable external "vaporn treatment, known as Vick's VapoRub, recently introduced here from the South,
 This treatment makes unnecessary .dosing'' with injurious medicines, using flannel jackets and chest pro .tectors, or keeping the children shut up indoors. z You can let the little chaps run outdoors and get their needed fresh .air and exercise. If colds do start, nip them in the bud'' by using VapoRub-it is externally applied and can therefore be used freely and often with perfect safety, on the smallest member of the family
 yVapoRub comes in salve form and is applied over the throat and chest covering with warm flannel cloth The body heat releases medicated vapors that are inhaled with every breath, all night long, through the air passages to the lungs. These vapors loosen the phlegm and clear the ail passages.
 In cases of very severe chest colds ou ineipient pneumonia, first apply hot, wet towels over the throat and chest to open the pores. VapoRul is then absorbed through and stimu- | lates the skin. taking out that tight ness and soreness in the chest. Ask your druggist about the 8 days trial offer.
