Eye Trouble? Try
Camphor & Hydrastis

For most eye trouble there is
nothing better than simple camphor,
hydrastis, witchhazel, etc. as mixed
in Lavoptik eye wash. One business

improves sight. Another case OF

About Perfumes.

Women OF discriminating taste
know that the perfume they use is
more expressive Of their personality
and character than any other single
item OF their toilet or wardrobe.
They are learning to select their per.
fume as the Frcnchman has learned
to select his wine.
The blond woman nearly always
prefers a more delicate. elusive fra.
GRANGE than the brunette, who gem
orally prefers the heavier and more
clinging variety. Caresse d'Amour,
Lilas and Chypre are much sought
by the women OF light coloring, while
Jasmin is favorite dark" perfume.
American women who have gone
abroad come back with the know
ledge that imported perfumes may
be purchased as advantageously at
home as afar. The costly perfumes
grow more and more popular since
it is learned that their odors last
longer. that smaller quantities and
less frequent applications are neces-
sary and that they retain their fresh
ness of fragrance until the odor
fades.

 News developments were mixed. export demand continuing slow, bu; the weather map showing that west ern Kansas received little or no moisture overnight. One authority pointed out that Liverpool remained strong despite large Argentine and Australian shipments.
 Corn was influenced by wheat, but when the cash markets failed to re- spond to the advance in futures there was less inclination to run prices up, and trade remained within narrow limits.
 Oats exhibited some strength that was all its own and was helped by some switching of corn holdings 70 the oats pit. Trade in provisions was not large and was easily influenced by the strength in live hogs and in ths grain pits.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
 Rx AasociafAd Prnsa

New Orleans, January 21.-It was an evening up market in cotton to- day, covering from the short side fur nishing support In the early trading, while in the later session liquidation of long contracts caused small sags. The close was typical of tho rest of the day. the list being 1 point up to 3 points down. compared with the close of yesterday. The closing bid on March was 16.7bo.
 Early gains amounted to to points, carrying March to 16.s5c and the moderate amount of new buying that came on the market arose from the favorable opinion entertained of weekend reviews of trade in general which were held to show small but healthy improvement. Further en- couragement was found In teleErams from Dallas reporting more activity in the spot market there than in any preceding day of this year.
 The evening up on tho long side carried prices to 6 points under the close of yesterday, March dropping to 16.72c. This liquidation was along very moderate lines as most traders felt that the ginning returns, due the first thing Monday morning, would be very small although there was some disposition to think that private estimates indicating only about 20,o00 bales ginned this last period were somewhat too low.

New York. January 21.-(SpeciaI.) ) Our market opened few points over last nights close on buying from commission houses. probably short covering before the weekend. Out side of this the market remained fea- tureless. Interest is being centered on outside conditions. The trade Is eagerly waiting the effect of the wage cut throughout New England mills. The New England mills con tend that reduction is necessary be- cause or the lower wage scale throughout southern mills.
 Then there is possibility of a miners strike. In short, things out side affecting conditions generally are against the market, at least tenn -pofarily Therefore. we expect the market to ease off until a good de- mand arises and outside conditions become more settled.-Hubbard Bros. & Co.

Late in the morning reports from the local cotton goods market were received. indicating that most of the buyers who had been here at- tending the convention earlier in tho week were returning home without placing large orders. and that second hands were shading prices.
 These reports had an unfavorable influence on sentiment, and probably accounted for some scattered selling There was no change In the news from the southern spot markets. and local brokers reported very few or-l ders from the south either way.

GREAT HOPE HELD
 OUT IN ALL METALS FOR B|G EXPANSION
Predictions Claim Big Busi- ness Hanging Fire and Due to Lift Markets in Not
 Far Distance
By Associated Press

New York, January 2i.-In absence of the increase In business expected after the holidays, the steel mar ket at the moment is being sustained by hopes that the predicted expan- sion Is not far distant In view of the number of building projects in contemplation and the needs of the railroads, these hopes would appear to be well founded, although 1t is now conceded that there Is little probability of much activity during the present month.
 The pig iron market is also in waiting position and buyers appear to be holding off in the hope of a reduction in prices.
 Copper has remained quiet. Some sales are being made by the Copper Export association for shipment to Germany and. France, also Italy and Holland, but the business has been comparatively small. Otherwise, very little, if any, export trade is reported, and there has been no revival of demand from domestic buyers
 Meanwhile. secondhand and some of tho smaller producers, are shad- ing prices, and 1t Is said that buyers are finding no difficulty in placing small orders at $1775 delivered for prompt and first quarter electrolytic. Producers whose stocks have been considerably reduced and who still have good deal of copper to ship out of old orders are maintaining their quotation of 14c, which puts them practically out of the market. Tin still commands premium for prompt and January delivery over ;u- lures. with an improvement in con- suming demand. Offerings for for ward shipment from thei east are liberal and are being reflected in a lowering of bids here.
 Lead remains in a healthy posi- : ton statistically. Large producers are well booked up for January ship ment and are showing no disposition to make concessions for February business
 While there Is little increase in the demand for zinc, producers anticipate improvement in the near future. when the demand for steel products in- creases. which would bring the mills into the market.
 Anthony continues quiet and easy but even at concessions there is very little demand for export. and con sumers seem to be well supplied.
