HuRBARn,s LETTER

New York. November s.-tspecial. IA continued demand for spot cotton in the south with a still higher basis was the cause of further advance in our market today. The December position crossed tho 25-cent level. A better demand for Liver pool is reported and it would.sappeaF as though England and the continent were making up their minds that they would have to pay prevailing prices to get their supplies. Some hesitation Is to be expected around the 25-cent level but the market continues to have a very strong under tone and probably in the long will continue to advance long this spot demand keeps up.-Hubbard Bros. & Co.

CALOMEL SAL1NATiIS
EVEN WHEN CAREFUL
Treacherous Drug Can Not Be Trust
ed and Next Dose May Start
Trouble.

Caiomel is dangerous. 1t may
salivate you and make you suffer
fearfully from soreness of gums,
tenderness of jaws and teeth, swollen
tongue and excessive saliva dribbling
from the mouth. Don't trust Gallo
mel. It is mercury; quicksilver.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone for few cents
which is a harmless vegetable sub
stitute for dangerous calomel. Take
a spoonful and If it doesn't start
your liver and straighten you up bet
ter and quicker than nasty calomel
and without making you sick, you
just go back and geteyour money.
If you take calomel today you'll
be sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may saliyate you, while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
willwake up feeling great. No salts
necessary. Give it to the children
because it is perfectly harmless and
can not salivate.-Advertise
