FHE PRIcE OF CTTON. In his annual address to the Southo'tn Cotton :Spinners' Association which met at Charlotte, Piesident George B. Hiss said in part: "During the past two years manufac turers using American grown cotton have failed to secure a proper margin of profit and it has been during these last two years that cotton 'manipula tors' have held their greatest swaa'. It is estimated that between 80.01,tXX1 and 10,tXX),tXk bales of cotton are bought and sold annually in this coun try while we actually produce an aver age of but 10.tXk,001 bales annually. "Except in a few special fabrics, the price the 'mnupulators' have fixed for cot ton today is out of all proportion to the price the manufacturer can realize for this product. is there not a remedy for this situation' If the cotton manu facturer couhi arrange to buy this year's supply of raw stxk by making h:s pur chase during the pericd covered from September 1 to leW1emb1er i of each ar (as is largely the case with car ~ori1ctnpt:terl there woa>i K bu shght opportunity for the 'mar'; :iator to inggie a prot:. out of the :ew hun dred thousand bales : :.:t:e :p by these purethase This is what th:e So:' r:. .;rmer has been w an:inlg for y't.,:s.

If the farmers of this county could get that 'price for their cotton this fall it wvould be a great thing for the county. A mill man in Charlotte sold 1500 bales Saturday at 12 cents. The price will go back before the next crop is harvested. GILDER & WEEKS SUCCESSFUL. Induced Dr. Howard Company to Make Special Price. After a great deal of effort and cor respondence, Gilder & Weeks the popular druggists, have succeeded in getting the Dr. Howard Company to make a special half- price introductory oE~er on the regular fifty cent size of their celebrated specific for the cure of constipation and dyspepsia. Dr. HIoward's specific has been so re mrarkably successful in curing constipa tion, dyspepsia and all liver troubles, that they are willing to return the price p)aid in every case where it does not give relief. So great is the demand for this speci fic, that Gilder & Weeks have been able to secure only a limited -supply, and every one who is troubled with dyspep siat, constipation or liver trouble should call upon them at once, or send 25 cents, and get sixty doses of the best medilcine ever made, on this special half,.price offer, with their personal guarantee to reftund the money if it does not cure. Wanted. We wvould like to ask through the columns of your paper, if there is any erso~8n who has used Green's August Flower' for the cure of Indigestion, Dyspepsia, andl Liver Troubles that has not been cured-and we also mean their results, such as sour stomach, fermen tation of food, habitual costiveness, nervous dyspepsia, headaches, des pon dent feelings, sleeplessness- in fiact, any trouble connected with the stom ac h or liver? This medicine has been sold for many years in all civilized coun tries, and we wish to correspond with you and send you one of our books free of coat. If you never tried August Flowef, try a 25 cent bottle first. We have never known of its failing. If so, something more serious is the matter with you. The 25 cent siso has just been introduced this year, Regular size 75 cents. For sale by W. E.l Pel ham & Son. G. G. GREEN, Woodry, N.. J.

Cannon, Newberry, S. C. Dear Sir: Messrs. Leachman & Ede lin, Grafton, W. Va., had been selling a paint, which they thought well of; and this had occurred. They had sold a customer 1S gallons of it to paint his house. A few years later. they sold the same man Oevoe lead-and-zinc the same number of gal lons to paint the same house. He had 7 gallons left. The point of the tale is: 11 gallons Devoe paints an 18-pallon house. Of course this isn t all. Why does 11 gal'ons Devoe go as far as 18 gallons of other paint? Because it is a paint, all true, no sham, and full measure. But that isn' all. Devoe lasts longer. No. no: you haven't got to wait ten years to ind that out. Ten thousand people know it. We've got their names. Our agents know hem; they think a heap of Devoc. i 're's no difficulty in showing your townspeople what to expect of Devoe. $10 will paint a $15 house: and the paint'll last twice as long. Yours trulv, F. W. L1vof & Co. P. S. --The Newberry H1ardware Co., sell our paint. Full Court to Hear Cse. In the case of S. C.
