ON THE SALTS.
Col. Thornton Wheatley Se
cures an Ideal Spot.
Corsets at $1. -
Some people appear to believe that
we lose money on every pair of Nadia
Corsets we sell. On the contrary,
there’s a fair profit—not large, of
course, for prabably no other cor
sets have ever been sold at so little
over actual worth of material and
work. They are made for us by the
best corse tiers In this country, and
come direct to this store. It doesn’t
cost the maker a penny to place them
on the market, nor can any one dic
tate our retail prices.
At $1, worth $1.60, of Coutll
Bnlste. Three models—one for young
girls or slender women; one high
bust model for long walsted fig
ures; one for the average figure, deep
hip style. All are trimmed with lace
and have hose supporters.
NOTE—If you cannot come we will
send corsets for your Inspection. We
want every woman to know that these
are the very best popular priced cor
sets. ,
D 0 wn on the salts, in the beautiful
suburb of Montgomery, a few miles
out from Savannah, Col. Thornton
Wheatley has bought a summer home.
The deal was consummated on
Monday of this week. Already Col.
Wheatley is planning for the improve
ments that are to be made, that are
t 0 convert the spot into an ideal place
for the heated spell.
Facing on the salt river, where tjie
breezes coming from the ocean but
a short distance away will sweep al
most uninterruptedly across it, he
has purchased a lot 170 feet front by
360 feet deep, with a cottage on it
1 The lot runs down to the water’s
edge. In front of the cottage, which
is tg be remodeled and Improved gen
erally, a walk wll be built out over
the water, leading to a pavilion where
the Colonel and his family and guests
can enjoy the outlook. Beneath will
be built a private bath house.

CLARK & CO’S COTTON LETTER.
NEW YORK,, October 23, 1907.
Tho last hope of the bulls wont out
when Liverpool came 13 lower on con
tracts and 18 down on spots. All
Europe has turned against the mar
ket. Our session has been a tragedy
There wns Borne slight hope until
Houston wired that Texas holders
had lost heart and were selling. After
this thero was not a buying order in
the market and values simply col-
lapsed. Heavy withdrawals from lo
cal banks added to the distress of
the bulls whose cross has now be-
COTTON CONTRACTS
BREAK SHARPLY
Local Spots in Bettor De
mand in Afternoon.
Gloom enveloped the cotton con
tract markets yesterday on account
of the continuation of the havoc in
the financial market, and prices again
sought lower levels. Liverpool was
demoralized both In futures and
spots. Added to this a little later
were reports of n letting loose of cot
ton by Texas farmers and this swept
away the last vestige of bullish
enthusiasm. Before the day was ov
er however the market firmed up on
an Improvement elsewhere and the
tosses since the opening were gener
ally regained and In some positions
little added.
The opening was at losses of 11 to
18 points for New York and 20 to 21
points for New Orleans, due to the re
porta from the English market and to
the Wail street conditions. Prices
showed some bouyancy after the ope
ning but soon eased off on rumors of
Texas selling. Ttye loss was regain
ed in all positions except December
at New York. The close was 16 to 23
points net lower at New York for the
active months and 18*to 20 points
lower at New Orleans. Spots in the
former market wero quoted 30 points
lower, and at New Orleans % cent
off. Savannah was 3-16 of a cent low-
TAKES NEW POSITION
TO TRAVEL STATE
Mr. Jeff Taylor returned to Amerl
cus yesterday from Atlanta, where
he went for a day upon important
business. Mr. Taylor is now connect
ed with the Americnn Tobacco Co.,
as traveling representative In Georgia,
where he is widely knflwa to the
trade and popular withal. Mr. Tay
lor has had several years 'experience
in selling tobacco and no one Is bet
ter known to the trade. Mr. Taylor
has a good position, and at a very
lucrative salary.
Liverpool spots lost 36 American
points, while futures were 11 to 18
English points below the close' for
Tuesday, the tone at the last being
denominated feverish.
Local Market
In the Americus spot market
published quotations are reduced %
of a cent from the previous day, good
middling being quoted at 10% cents,
During the morning some business
was transacted on a basis of 10%
cents, with the demand poor. In the

NATURE’S WARNING.
Amerlcns People Mast Recognize and
Meed IL
Kidney ills come quietly—myster
lonely,
But nature always warns you
through the urine.
Notice the kidney secretions.
See if the color Is unhealthy
If there are settlings and sediment,
Passages too frequent, scanty, pain
ful.
It’s time then to use Doan’a Kid
ney Pills,
To ward oft Bright’s disease or
diabetes.
J. H. Thompson, employed by tho
cotton compress company and living
at 213 Pine street, Albany, Ga., says:
Doan’s Kidney Pills rid me of a lame
and aching back, and I am therefore
prepared to recommend them very
highly. I had suffered from this com
plaint for some years past. It was a
dull pain right across the small of
my back particularly severe at night,
breaking my rest and robbing me of
sleep. The kidney secretions con
tained a sediment and were very free
and strong-smelling. I used various
kidney remedies but nothing seemed
to do me nny good until I got Doan’s
Kidney Pills and used them. They
gave me almost immediate relief, and
since using them my back has been
free from pain, my urine contains no
Bedlmcnt and docs not bother mo os It
did.”
Plenty more proof life this .from
Americus people. Call at Dodson’s
Pharmacy and ask what customers
report.
