With a strong northeast wind blowing since Wed nesday noon, Brunswick marsh hen hunters prepared for a good days' sport yesterday morning and dozens of them were out In the marsh, but they were rather a. disappointed crowd of sportsmen, as the tide fell short ul<nut two feet and cansequently there was "nothing doing.” The heavy wind, ordinarily, would have driven 111 an unusually high tide but the fact that the tides are nip ping prevented the rise.

C.—The Southern Cot ton Oil Company Is contemplating establishing a cotton warehouse here in connection with Its large ginnery and mixing plant. Our people ate loath to part with the fleecy staple at the present prices and this other warehouse will be hailed with delight by the cotton planters. Mr. E. H. Oswald has Inaugurated the “Buy-a-Bale” movement here by buying his bale at 10 cents per pound and proposes to buy a bale for each of his three children. The first hale la for the present stored on the street In front of Mr. Oswald’s bank, the Al lendale Bank. Mr. E. (J. Melvin, traveling sales man for Danner & Co., of Beaufort, was the next to buy a bale. Others will doubtless follow . this patriotic action. dependent on their daily work for food for their families? Surely the women’s clubs will take the matter into seri ous consideration. I would suggest that the M. & M. might get out a pretty badge—a red and a white rib bon held together by a tiny button representing a cotton bale. Let ev ery man who buys a bale and every woman who buys cotton goods only tor one year wear the badge of loyalty to the state in financial trouble, A WOMAN. BRITAIN'S DUTY TO HELP BELGIUM. To The Herald. A London dispatch says that 60,000 Belgian refugees are expected to ar rive In England In the next ten days, and that tile British government has extended a general invitation to all Belgians made homeless by the war to come to that country. This Is con siderate of the British government, but It Is due the Belgian people front the United Kingdom to care for them in tlielr destitution, inasmuch as their heroic resistance to the invasion of their country disconcerted the Ger man plnns for a swift movement upon Paris and enabled the allied armies to mobilize their forces for such ef fective resistance as they have since made to the great German fighting machine. Had the Belgians not fought so heroically and effectively for three weeks, the German military plans for the speedy overwhelming of the French and British forces on French territory would have been successful. J. T. W. WOMEN DO NOT WANT TO DRESS TO GO TO MARKET To The Herald: I would like to express my opinion concerning the purchasing of fruits, vegetables, chickens, eggs, etc., from the wagons which pass our doors. I find it a great convenience and saves much time to the busy house-wife, who does not care to dress for the streets to go out In search of the above mentioned articles and who Is not In favor of purchasing altogether over the phone I fall to see where they are an annoyance, and have of ten been greatly benefited and reliev ed by having the opportunity to se cure some necessary supplies from them.

COTTON LIST WEEK New Orleans, — A determined hold ing movement and few offers of dis tressed cotton was reported by cotton buyers here during the past week. With this condition came a better de mand and steadier prices for spot cot ton. In the eastern belt where some markets are Quoting spots, rises of one-sixteenth to ono-eighth *were noted from day to day. The “buy a bale” movement spread this week to all parts of the cotton region and it was generally consider ed that It had not a little to do with the firmness of farmers. Good pro gress was made during the week with the liquidation of old accounts and It was felt by future brokers, that the steadier feeling In spots, if continued, would help determine, before long, the date of the reopening of the rings to active business. The small ginning returns In the first report of the season. Issued this week, Bhowtng an outturn only a lit tle more than half that of the same period during the last three seasons, was taken as assurance that the movement in the near future would continue small and that there would he better chanre for real pressure to sell spots this week. Weather conditions over the belt were extremely favorable, and If they continue Into the coming week, big crop talk will increase. The approach of the maturity of the October position is being await ed with much interest because of the threat of shorts to liquidate means of the delivery of actual cotton. Developments in this connection may arise this week. Optimisitic cotton peo ple claim that the next week or so ought to see a more favorable turn in the spot situation. Pessimists, how ever. continue to point out that this looks like a large crop year and that a surplus Is Inevitable and must be cared for. Acute Indigestion. •1 was annoyed for over a year by attacks of acute Indigestion, followed by constipation,” writes Mrc. M. J. Gallagher, Geneva, N. Y. “I tried everything that was recommended to me for this complaint but nothing did me much good until about four months ago I saw Chamberlain's Tab lets advertised and procured a bottle of them from our druggist. I soon realized that I had gotten the right thing for they helped me at once. Since taking two bottles of them I can eat heartily without any bad effects.” Sold by all dealers. EXCURSION FARES.
