FARMERS’ UNION PLAN TO BUiLD A LARGE WAREHOUSE TO HOLD MILLION BALES OF COTTON. New Orleans, Nov. 13.—The build ing of a large central warehouse at New Orleans, where the planters ol half a dozen or more states can store their cotton and hold it tmtil they choose to sell, is now practically as- bured. * The Fanners’ Educational and Co operative Union indorsed the scheme by an almost unanimous vote, and au thorized their committee appointed to proceed with thp plans. The idea of the Progressive Union's committee is to make the warehouse a public one, controlled by a commis sion. Governor Saunders has indorsed the plan. He says that he will give all the aid desired and will call a spe cial session of the legislature of Ix»u isiana. if necessary, to make provis ions for the project. The gist of the resolutions passed by the farmers is that the surplus supply of each crop of cotton should be kept at home, and for the account of home owners, instead of in Europe an warehouses for the account of for eign owners, it being clearly evident that cotton is worth more when mar keted as the trade demands than when sold while there is no mill demand. The committee representing the un ion in the warehouse matter follows: T. J. Brooks, Tennessee; G. R. High tower, Mississippi; J. Z. Greene, North Carolina; J. W. Boyett, Jr„ Louisiana; L. H. O’Martin, Georgia, and 1.. H. Morris, Alabama. It was stipulated that the commit tee representing the Farmers’ Union should have at its disposal a million bales of cotton to sell whenever it deems the market capable of absorb ing that much. The matter of secur ing warehouse certificates for the cot ton and making them negotiable at local banks was also placed in the committee's nands. Ex-Sheriff Sharp Arrested in Carmack Case. Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 13.—The sit uation in Nashville, growing out of the killing of former United States Senator Carmack by Robin Cooper, has grown more intense with the ar rest of John D. Sharp, former sheriff of Davidson county, and more recent ly a representative in the legislature. The ex-sheriff was arrested by Sher iff Sam H. Borum, one of Sharp's old deputies, on a warrant sworn out by Attorney General Jeff McCarn before Justice Jake Levine. Prohibition Does Not Prohibit. Washington, Nov. 13.—-The wave of prohibition, which has spread over the country, apparently has had little in fluence on the consumption of alco holic liquors and spirituous drinks, ac cording to evidence brought out at hearing on the proposed tariff revis ion before the house committee on ways and means. It was apparent, too, that the liquor interests are, on the whole, well satisfied with the pres ent tariff on spirits, wines and other beverages, as the wine growers and importers were practically the only interests represented at today’s hear ing. Over 300 Miners Killed in Explosion. Hamm, Westphalia, Germany, Nov. 13.—The greatest mine disaster in many years in Germany occurred yes terday morning in the Radbod mine, about three miles from this place. There was a heavy explosion in the mine about 4 o’clock and almost im mediately the mine took fire. There were 380 miners working under the ground at the time, and only six es caped without injury. Thirty-five were taken out slightly injured, and thirty- seven were dead when brought to the mouth of the pit. The remaining 302 have been given up for lost. •Washington, Nov. 13.—Postmaster General Meyer announced that the postal deficit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1908, amounted to $16,910,279.

CQQ CUBES MALARIA Malaria is due to impurities and poisons in the blood. Instead of being rich, strong and healthy, the circulation has become infected with germs of disease which destroy the rich, red corpuscles that furnish nourishment and strength to the body, and reduced this vital fluid to such a weak, watery condition that it is no longer able to keep the system in health, or ward off the countless diseases and disorders that assail it. The loss of . red corpuscles takes the color and glow of health from the cheek, and we see pale, sallow faces and washed out, chalky complexions among the first symptoms of Malaria. But Malaria is a general systemic disease, and as the blood becomes more heavily loaded with its germs we have more serious and complicated symptoms; the impure blood having its effect on all parts of the body. The appetite fails, digestion is weakened, chills and slight fever are frequent, and the sufferer loses energy and ambition because of A constant tired-out aud “ no account ” feeling. The lack of necessary nour ishment and healthful qualities in the blood causes boils and abscesses, skin affections, and in some cases sores and ulcers to break out, and sometimes the patient is prostrated with a spell of malarial fever which may leave his health permanently impaired. To cure Malaria both a blood purifier and tonic are necessary, in order to remove the cause and at the same time build up the system from its weakened and run-down condition. S. S. S. is the medicine best fitted for this work. It is the most perfect of all blood purifiers, and the purely vegetable ingredients of which it is composed make it the greatest and safest of all tonics. S. S. S. goes down into the circulation and removes every trace of impurity or poison, and at the same time gives to the blood the health-sustaining qual ities it needs. It cures Malaria thoroughly and permanently because it removes the germs and poisons which produce the disease, and while doing this tones up and strengthens every part of the system. When S. S. 8. has cleansed the blood the symptoms pass away, the healthy color returns to the complexion, the old tired, depressed feeling is gone, and the entire health is renewed.

THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA. —■—« i During 1900 I was running a farm «tn the Mississippi river and became so impreg- nated with Malaria that for a year I was almost a physical wreck. I tried a number of medicines recommended at blood purifl- era, chill cures, and Malaria eradicators, but nothing did me any good until I began to use S- S. S. The result was that after taking it for awhile I was as wall and strong as I ever was. I have never had a chill since nor the (lightest symptom of Malaria. I hope others will be benefited by my experience, and with that end in view I give this testimonial, knowing n»a» 3. S. S. is the best remedy for Malaria. Amory, Mias. S. R. COWLEY.
