 net advances and net declines today. Dur ing the strongest periods, prices were at

BAPTIST DEACON AGE T, FEELS
 LIKE 70 AGAIN Rid of His Rheumatism of the. Joints, He Says He Can Do As Much Work As Anyone--All Praise
 For Dreco

"Although I am n years old, feel like I am 20 again, and can do as much work in the field as any young man, and all this is because of the splendid results I got from taking this new med icine Dreco," are the very words of MT. z T. Weaver, who is well known man all over his state MT Weaver lives at Jacksonville, Ala, and is a prosperous farmer and deacon in the Baptist church.
 After so many of my neighbors had told me about Dreco, and advised me to take it. I took their advice, for l was badIv in need of something that would cure my rheumatism and stomach trou- bIes The food l ate didn't seem to do me any good. l got no strength from it. My joints ached from rheumatism, and my muscles were sore and still l couldn't bend over without great pain, and climbing the steps was an effort. But today I feel young and spry, full of life and energy, and I haven't a pain about me. I can stay in the field with the young fellers and do as much work e as any of them. l feel good and am proud to tell anyone that Dreco did it for me, and I urge them to take it also. : It is not strange that so many per cons openly praise Dreco, for when they find out the virtues of this great rem edy and are returned to their old-time health and strength, they tell others about it; that is why the sales of Dreco grow 50 fast. If you are thinking about taking Dreco don't hesitate, get it today.
 All good druggists now sell Dreco and 1t is highly recommended in Birming- ham by Norton's drug store, Halls phar- macy, Ensley; Fulton Bros, Bessemer; Central pharmacy. Wylam.-Adv.

Over Private Wires
w. E. Campbell & Co.'s Cotton Letter

w. L. CdmpDell & 10. COJtOn LetteI
 The cotton market was a thing of lidui- dation from the start tosthe final gong After opening 10 to 15 points decline, the market made a new high for all options and then after holding this for a while, those that bought cotton at much lower prices, decided the technical position war. ranted taking in little profits, and this resulted in some lower prices for the clos . ing, December in New Orelans closing at 32. 92d32.33. Our private spot advices were extremely bulsh from all sections from Texas to the Atlantics. One prominent spot house in this state told the writer he was being offered 150 points on Decem- Der, f. 0. b. his town.
 In New Orleans we find spots marked up g points with splendid sales, amount ing to 10 5f9 bales. We are enjoying the very largest spot demand in the history of the market and we strongly advise our friends to buy this market. We are look ing for December cotton to sell 34 cents by Saturdays closing, as Sunday and Monday finds all markets closed on ae- count of Columbus day, with bad weather creeping in from the far west. The best we can wiel for the bear is steady prayer. W F. Campbell & Co.

BEST PLACE TO LAND

I was also endeavoring to keep a close lockout on Fearless" Tinney who was making a brave effort not to come down on the>xpidway It was the best place for him to land with his own safety in mind, but he hegoically wiggled his body and somehow managed to get be- yond the fair grounds and last glimpse got of him was when he disappeared in a clump of trees. I thought certainly he had wrecked his parachute and broken a limb or two or even his neck. but it would have taken me 20 minutes to have raced to him. Just then Lock- lear came down and told me that Tin ney had fallen on a house and that his parachute was suspended from a tree.
 Two of those I was striving to keep up with had at last reached mother earth, but O Sullivan was still up in the air, and he was giving me the most concern of all for I knew that he had been through a gruelling, nerve-rack- ing experience Which would last him through life. He landed and his face was one greasy spot, for when the ship turned upside down he got dose of oil which blackened and smeared him from head to foot He was one sight The stuff was in his eyes and he was most uncomfortable but happy to be alive.
 I had just gotten through condoling OSullivan, for he had endeavored to change from the front to the rear seat against my earnest wish, as it was a new stunt for him and I wanted him to wait until the wind was not so bois- terous.
 Tinney. who weighs only 112 pounds. informed me that when he jumped the draft from the ~propellerS of the air. plane nearly tore him in two.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-10-10

front to the rear just after Tinney went overheard his foot got caught in a wire and having lost control of the machine it took downward plunge of nearly 2000 feet
 All eyes were on Tinney as he leaped for no one wanted to miss seeing his parachute open out. had watched him pack it about himself as he climbed in. The thing which attracted my attention most was an open knife tied 10 a string which was 10 be used by him in liberat- ing the ropes which held the parachute together. I admit that felt a tingling of my nerves at the thought of that knife hanging between a man and his life.
 I shook his hands and away went O'Sullivan. Some wondered why he hopped off so soon after Lock1ear didI for those who were out before knew that Elliott did a lot of fancy stunts, and then Short went skyward with the man who introduced new sensation to the world and that for a time both planes gave exhibitions of what past masters can do with airships.
 The reason was quite simple for OSullivau had to climb 5000 feet and it takes time to reach this altitude. He figured on getting high enough in 25 minutes, but I timed him and it took just half hour. All the time he was holding the nose of his machine heav- onward. Locklear was doing the things which has given him a reputation in a class by himself for sheer courageous devf1trv

New Orleans. October 9-Liverpool this morning early reported sales of l0,O0o bales at an advance of 20 points, which were increased to 15.0O0 bales later. Flu lures there closed 25 to 50 points up.
 Our market opened irregular with Octo- Der 10 points up and later position as much as 20 down. which action reflected the belief that the urgent covering neces- sity in spots and future also might have been answered by the good advance of the past few days. The low point of the day was reached around 10 a. m, when December sold to 32 7Sc. There was good buying here and the advance which car red December rapidly up to 33.56c. As anticipated in yesterdays remarks. re- alizing became general and prices grad ually declined without material upward reactions, and after ranging within a limit of 65 to 70 points closed barely steady, 30 to 30 points below yesterday s close.

BETWIxT LIFE AND DEATH

But all this time O'Sullivan was sus- pended between life and death, for ,he was vainly striving to get back into the front seat from which he had been thrown when the machine swerved and started earthward. He only managed to crawl in after a superhuman effort, and grabbing hold of the control lever he was able by sheer grit to sail it up- side down until he got sufficient leeway to right it.
 By this time Mir Locklear and his wife had posed for The Age Herald cameraman and she had donned her aviation dress or rather put on the coat and headpiece of one of the boys and climbed into the ship as Locklear was anxious to get up to circle Fearless" Tinney before he lit. He was late in starting, but got high enough to come near him but not close enough to give him the benefit of the draft from his ship to make it possible for him to make a safe landing in the field
 I was trying to watch Locklear fos he was making the first flight with his wife since he began to do his marvellous act. and by the way it was her second flight with him. She confessed that once when he was an army aviator he had given her a Short ride which she kept quiet as it was not looked on with favor by the army aviators. She seemed charmed that all army restrictions were over so far as he was concerned and that now he could take her up when ever he got ready

GOULD NOT SLEEP FAT. NOR WORK Old Soldier, Weakened and Feeble, Is Made to Forget
 His Age by Ziron
 Iron Tonic.

Many old people are hale and hearty be cause their blood is well supplied with a sufficiency of iron. Iron is needed by the system to help keep and women strong and healthy, and iron is also often needed by the nerves. when tangled out of tune by the worries of every day life.
 MT. John Faulkner, of Augusta, Ga took Ziron to supply the iron his system needed. and says
 ..I want to tell the world that if people want something that will do them good, to take Ziron Iron Tonic. I can't praise Ziron too highly. I was so weak could not sleep, nor eat, nor work. One bottle of Ziron put me right. I am an old Soldier, [ 0 years old. but I feel as young as l did 30 years ago.
 And Zron is not only good for old people, it is valuable tonic for everybody who needs iron, young as well old. It should be tried by those who need iron to bring back their strength, by those who are pale. weak rundown and can't sleep, eat or work. Try Ziron today.

Shannon & Co.'S Letter

New ycrk. October 9.-The market mas been very irregular, being at times under a good !eal of pressure, but showing eN- celelnt ability to recover as soon as the offerings slackened.
 Spot and weather news favored ouyerS. A wire from Texas said that large sales had been made there on the basis of 5o cents and reports from most other sec tions showed that business is being done
 at prices well in excess of futures.
 New Orleans also reported that sales there had been large. A storm IS reportet I in the vest moving eastward, to De loi- lowed bv much colder weather and al though it is not expected that frost WI be reported tomorrow, it is quite posslp'e that they may occur in the next few days from present indications. It is suggested by some that as many eastern mill men and spot brokers are leaving presently to attend the conference at New orleans, there may be an increase in trade buylng after those people have had chance 'o view conditions for them selves.
 Foreign exchange was steadier later II, the day with demand sterling 4lsA ana francs SA2 There has been good deai of realizing today and hedge selling on strong spot, but the feeling Is that all ac- tual cotton of desirable grades Will Ne eagerly taken and that on declines oftsr- | ings will shrink rapiAy-Post x flags.
