Hubbard Bros. X Co.'S Letter

New York, September 24-(SpeciaD Liverpool was not quite as good as due this morning with our market selling off on overnight selling orders from Eu- rope and from the south. Some further short covering took place which steadied prices, but there was an increased ten dency to even up commitments before the government report. As the specula- tive interest is now long, there was nat urally considerable amount of realizing and some local selling. These offerings were absorbed by those who feel that it is unwise to- go over the report short of the market Weather conditions in the south are more favorable and while the weekly weather report was of an un- favorable character it failed to stimu- late any free buying of moment The fact of the matter is vast majority of the trade believe that for the time being at least the advance has discounted any demand which may have occurred recent ly. In fact, the report of a well-known crop estimator that there were more bolls on the plant in Texas than had been expected, and that if given an op- portunity to mature would add material ly to the crop caused many to believe that while the recent bad weather in Texas unquestionably would lower the grades, there probably was not the damage done to the yield that had been at first expect ed We look for rather quiet market before the report.-Hubbard Bros. & Co

 '.So many people were being benefited by taking Tanlac that my husband got me a bottle to try, and I began to inn prove at once. Soon could eat any thing I wanted without having any trouble afterward and now my 20 years of suffering are completely at an end.

JEWISH NEW YEAR | EXERCISES HELD
Services at Local Places of Worship-Business Houses
 Closed Today

The Jewish New Year-Rosh Hashanah which began yesterday evening at sun set and which ends at sunset this even ing, is one of the two great hslidays uni versally observed by all who adhere to the faith of the. ''chosen people,"
 Temple Emanu-El. on Highland ave- nue, and the Knesseth Israel synagogue, on North Seventeenth street. were thronged with worshippers at the serv- ices last night.
 At the Temple Rabbi Newfield off ciated. The music, under the direction of Emil Levy, organst and choir mas ter. was exceptionally beautiful, con sisting as it did of anthems, and artistic music appropriate to the joyous occa- sion. One of the most eloquent of the prayers began: Heavenly Father, in the twilight of the vanishing yeaTs we lift up our hearts to Thee. to thank Thee for all the benefits which we have received at Thy hand In the past. and to implore Thy guidance and Thy blessing for the future. Thy providence has watched over our lives and over the lives of those dear to us. In affliction Thou hast strengthened us and in sorrow Thou hast comforted us.
 Thou hast bfsnscred uor lives with the joys of home and of friendship. Thy loving kindness has provided abundant ly for our wants. and has enabled us to give of our bounty to the poor. And as we thank Thee for the joys of life. even do we praise Thee for the sorrows. Many tear has furrowed our i cheeks; many a tender tie has been Sev cred by the hand of death; but Thou l dost not willingly afflict Thy children. 1. {. May be listen to the solemn ad-
 monition of this hour May we, as we
 grow older in years. grow stronger in
 wisdom, broader in charity, and truer to
 the noblest aspirations of heart and
 mind"
 After reading the impressive invoca-
 tion of the New Years ritual. Dr. New field delivered an animating discourse in which he congratulated his hearers
 upon the temporal good that had come
 to them during the year just gone. but admonished them to strive for moral and
 lar emphasis upon the point that worldly
 gain was of little value unless it was
 accompanied by honor and righteous ness.
 Services will be held this morning al the usual hour, when Dr. Newfield vii speak on 'Our Obligations"
 The choir will render an entirely fresh programme.

JUVENILE STORE,
 LATEST INNOVATION, READY FOR OPENING
New Establishment Verita- ble Wonderland" Both in Equipment and Quality
 of Goods Carried

The Juvenile Store, the latest addition to the really big retail establishments of this city, opens it's doors to the public tomorrow. A complete stock of juvenile ready -to- wear will be carried as well as an all-year toy shop, which will have a prominent place on the third floor. Many thousands of dollars have been spent in
 refinishing and remodeling the building and in store equipment. which makes one of the best equipped stores in the south.
 While the idea of exclusively juvenile outfitting stores is not new, 1t IS an ln- novation in Birmingham, and from the comments that have been passed it is
 filling a long-fe want. Boys and girls
 from infancy to IS will be able to pur- chase anything needed. The materias handled will be strictly of the better
 grade, and it is stated that by handling
 this class of goods exclusively that
 great saving can be made in buying and,
 therefore, the retail price kept at min
 mum consistent with safe merchandis-
 ing.
 From the remodeled front of the store. which by the way is quite a novelty in itself, to the back wall one is ever con- scious that the designing was done with rare good taste. The fixtures have been carefully selected with the idea present of the use to which they were to be sub-
 jected and assist in their own way to
 add to the attractiveness of the store in general.
 It is the belief of the owners of this
 new establishment that it will aid great ly in developing the retail section of town north of Fourth avenue In a statement regarding the opening Sam Friedman. interested equally with Sol Bindly, in the new enterprise, remarked: : We will endeavor to give to the younger generation class of service in this line that heretofore they have never known. Nothing but the kind of material that
 has stood the test will be admitted "On our first floor will be found all kinds of infants wear-young women's. misses, girls and boys shoes-boys' and girls hosiery and gloves and coats and headwear for those from 2 to 6. On the mezzanine floor will be infants furni- ture and the Wentworth gift shop. "On the second floor will be millinery | for girls and young women-clothing for l misses and small women, raincoats, dresses, etc, for young ladies from to ] IA. This floor will also include a ladies rest room. On the third floor will be kept the boys clothing and furnishings | toy town and miniature auto row and 1 a complete kiddies barber shop. l For the present the fourth floor will 1 be devoted to a stock room and for use
 as a receiving and delivery department | The fifth floor will be occupied by off, l fees for the present at least We are confident that by offering a kind of service as we expect to make this that
 it will be met by warm response over all of Birmingham and, in fact, all Ala bama."
 Before entering this business both MT N.-t
