TO YOUR HEALTH
By' V. S. Public Health Service.
SMALLPOX.
It seems Improbable at this age that
anyone doei not know smallpox ought to
be reported to health authorities, and
reported early. It also seems improbable
that anyone would allow themselves to
go unvaccinated. especially In Chatta
nooga and Its surroundings, after the
well-known experiences of the past on
account of this disease. Tet many people
are being found right here who have
never been vaccinated, and many more
who have never been revacclnated after
a period of several years. This fact haa
been brought to the attention of the
health authorities here ty recently find
ins; a case of smallpox in a public place
on Market street which had come Into
the city. Of course, the case was at once
Isolated, but how many came In contact
with that one case, or In contact with
those who had? Many contacts were
traced down and vaccinated, because this
protects them. Several who were ex
posed and would not be vaccinated were
isolated In order to protect the public.
You may have- been exposed. If you
have not, been vaccinated In the last
several years, do so. You owe this ob
ligation to your family, neighbor, com
munity and to yourself.
There is no excuae for smallpox at this
age, as" vaccination protects. The United
States public health service will vacci
nate you free any day at its office in
the city hall between the hours of 1 and
2 p.m.- , -

COHONMARKET
- AGAIN FIRM
New York, Jan. The cotton market
showed renewed firmness at the opening
today, first prices being 10 to 17 points
higher on the same buying as that which
had been in progress at . the close last
night. This included a demand from
Liverpool and local trade interests, par
ticularly houses with New England con
nections. January sold at 81.69c and
March at 31.16c, or about 13 to 19 points
net higher, shortly' after the call, but
met increased offerings around this level
with prices reacting several points to
ward the middle of the morning. Some
of the local map readers thought they
saw prospects for rains in the southwest,
which was probably a factor on the set
back, while there was no change In the
generally bullish character of the spot
news and it was suggested that the
warmer weather would melt snows and
would relieve water scarcity in the Caro
lines. After easing off to 30.93c for Harcn ana
29.25c for October, or about 4 to 15
points under Friday's closing, the market
steadiea on covering ana traae Duying.
Rallies seemed to meet further liquida
tion, however, and the close wag irreg
ular, net 5 points higher to 11 points
lower. The relatively easy ruling of Oc
tober was attributed to the better out
look for rains in the southwest.
NEW ORLEANS COTTON.
New Orleans, Jan. 6 Cotton opened at
higher levels here today and around the
first call gained 10 to 15 points. Selling
pressure based on hopes of rain in Texas
caused a quick fall, active months stand
ing 6 to 8 points under yesterday's close
at the end of the first half-hour.
At a level 6 to 10 points off, net, the
market met fresh buying based on gopd
accounts from the spot department,
where prices were 25 points higher,
which put middling to the new high rec
ord of 30.88c. Late in the session con
tracts were at a' net advance of 5 points.
