MY HOUSEWORK j
: NOW" SHE says;
Mrs. Emma Garner Had Tried j
So Many Different Medi-,
cijucb rviwiuui, nuj vvoiu.
She Was S6 Nervous That
Everything Worried Her
After Taking Two Bottles of
Mendol She Feels Well and
.Strong.

more good than any medicine I have
ever taken," ssld Mrs. Emma Garner,
residing at 603',4 Market street. Jfefore
tnking this wonderful tonic I suffered
for one year with me worst stomach
trouble Imaginable. My stomach was In
such a bad condition that 1 could
k-rdly stand the Intense cramping
pains which I would have. My whole
system was In a rundown condition. I
was so nervous that the lease noise
would nearly run me cissy, and It was
almost Impossible for me .to sleep at
night When I would try to do my
work I would feel as though I was go
ing ts- faint. My liver was In a bad
shape and I was constipated all the
time. Nothing I would take seemed to
do me any good, I took Just one medi
cine after another, but to no good, ao
after seeing MENDOI., advertised, and
so highly recommended by friends of
mine, I decided to try a bottle of this
great medicine. The first bottle I took
helped me ao much, and made me feel
so good that I Inst no time In buying
a second oneaVid by the time I had fin
ished the 'secnltd bottle I was In good
shape and felt fine. Now I have no
pains Inr my stomach: I can sleep wen
at iights. and I have a good appetite,
f ran now eat anything without Its
hurting me. I am full of life, and feel
like doing my huosework. I recom
mend MENDOL to everybody, because
It has helped me so much.

generally ia two or thre weeks late.
Some of the Advanced ytants are form

Just being planted to being laid by. This
ciop made good progreaa and Its condi
tion Is good, though much of It ia lato.

wheat. The last few weeks have been
favorable for wheat and It Is turning
out fairly good on the average. Clover
and alfalfa aro doing well and much ol
both has been saved, A good crop ot

COHON RECOVERS LOSSES
DURING EARLY TRADING
New Tork. June 23. The cotton mar.
kt recovered part of yesterday's. losses
during today s early trading. The rela
lively Arm showing of Liverpool and
scattering crop complaints from the
south, regarding the effects of wet
weather with further rains In some sec
tions of Texas, led to active covering.
First prices were firm at an advance
of 6 to 35 points and the active months
sold 36 to 42 points above last nignt's
closing during the early trading with
July advancing to 36.63c and October to
83.96c. There were a number of pri
vate wires complaining of too much rain
from the Paris and .Dallas sections of
Texas.
The early advances were lost late In
the morning with July selling off from
36.68c to 36.10c, or 8 points net lower,
while new crop positions reacted to
about last night's closing figures. There
was a slight rally toward midday, but
the weekly report of tne weather bureau
was considered favorable on the aver
age and the market eased off again dur
ing the early afternoon with October
selling around 33.60c, compared with
33.96c, the high' point of the morning.
Whenever the demand from shorts sub
sided the market showed a tendency to
work 'lower owing to unfavorable trade
reports and the absence of any impor
tant support. ,
The. detailed weather reports showing
rains n some of the best producing sec
tions of Texas were followed by an
other spurt of covering during the early
afternoon. October sold up to 33.97c,
a new high point for the day, and 37
points above last night's closing figures,
NEW ORLEANS COTTON,
New Orleans. June 23. The trend
was higher in the early trading in cot
ton today as the result of too much
rain In- the belt, heavy rains being re
ported In Texas and Oklahoma espe
cially. Private raoorts from the Interior
complained of damage by hail, heavy
downpours of rain and high winds.
During the first hour of business prices
rose 25 to 41 points, July touching
30.50c and 33.92c.
The ring became active and prices
firmed up rapidly on buying induced
by expectations of another wet weather
map ln the morning, 1,0 that late In the
day tha trading months were 48 to Gl
points hlghor than the close of yester
day, July going to 36.73c and October
to 3.uc. nut, in tne laat tew minutes
of the session, the market met a sud
den reverse, following rumors ot a
bearish private bureau report on con
ditions and fell to a level unchanged to
3 points down, compared- with yester
day's final prices.
The weekly crop reports were consid
ered moderately favorable, but were not
favorable enough to stimulate mucn
selling. Prices gradually fell off from
the htarheat levels until tliev were un
changed to 6 points up compared with
the final prices of yesterday. Late in
the morning the market waa steadier
with the trading months at net gains
of 6 to 21 points, July standing at
36.40c.

RAILROADS SHY AT
EQUIPMENT LOANS
Many railroads are a little wary about
taking advantage of the federal aid
fund available for the purchase of new
eouioment. A fund of $125,000,000 has
been authorized by the Interstate com
merce commission for the purchase or
freight cars and new locomotives. Of
this sum fl2.000.000 Is for short line
railroads. Seven per cent Interest is
Charged on loans made from this fund;
only &Si per cent Income is allowed by
the government. This will mean, claim
railroaders, that the roads will actually
loose 1 V4 per cent on all new equipment
purchased,
