First Government Report to BO lo? wed Thursday, June 5th?New York Market Closes Thursday ami New Orleans Market on Friday. New Orleans, May 25.?The coming week in the cotton market does not promise much activity. In the first place the local market will close Fri? day night, while the New York mar? ket Will close Thursday night, making a short week. In the second place the first government report on the condition of the new crop will be is? sued Thursday, June 5, which means that the average trader will even up this week rather than increase his commitments. The holiday* will tend to intensify this desire to even up. As yet the coming condition re? port "has not caused very much com? ment and there was a surprising dearth of private estimates on condi? tion this week. It can hardly be said that the trade has yet formed ' any very definite opinion of what to ex? pect, save that the bulls seem to look for figures under the ten-year average of 79.9 per cent, while the bears look for something over 80. A year ago the Percentage of condition was re? turned at 78.& and two years ago at 87.8. This'year the ten-year average has been ieelcted as a fairer com? parison than any, although, of course, reports an$ estimates during the week to come may develop entirely new opinions. It Is generally considered that this first report is altogether too early to be of any,value, especialy in a year like- this when a part of the crop has had a late;start. The pending report will carry the crop dowW to^'today. While weather conditions this week will'havd no effect oh the condition report, they will probably have much to do wiib^the course1 of prices, espe? cially if they " are very" good or very had. Taking the belt as a "Whole, suf? ficient moistiire for the time being has fallen, and what is most desired now Is warm, bright weather that will bring late planted cotton up, cause good growth' on yormg cotton and allow chopping to proceed. It is prob? able that more pefclpitatlftn unless it comes in the iorm of light showers, would he reg?rded as "highly unfavor- j able and would lead to higher prices, ' while dry and warm weather would work against the market.

There is only one way to cure deaf? ness, and that is by. constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an nflamed condition of the mucous lin? ing of the Eustaehlnn Tube. When his tube is inflamed you have a rumb? ling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely elosed. Deafness Is the result, and unless the inflam? mation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi? tion, hearing will be destroyed for? ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an Inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
