IHE WOOL TRADE. WOOl safes III
Philadelphia and Boston have continued
for nearly six weeks, or the opening of
the fall season, 10 per cent. in advance
of those of year ago. Down to July l
wool sales this year and last were almost
exactly equal, the heavy increase in 1883
over 1881 up to the beginning of March,
when the revised tariff was adopted hav-
ing been lost in the ensuing four moEtbs,
The advance made this fall is the volume
of sales, not in price, but it shows a
steady demand, and points to profitable
employment for a number of mills
more than equal in aggregate consump-
ton of domestic woods to those running
last year.-Syracuse Journal.
The Minneapolis Tribune remarks:
San important change is taking place in
the character of the agricultural industry
of the southern half of this state. In
stead of relying mainly on wheat the
farmers there are putting more capital
into dairying and growing horses, beef
cattle and hogs. This will lead to the
cultivation of corn and oats much more
extensively, and the results already Oh

increase the proGtableness of farming in
that locality, and prevent the frequent
embarrassment flowing from dependence
upon asingle crop. The creamery busi-
ness especially is developing with re,
markable rapidity. There are already
sixty-eight of these in operation, and
eight more will begin business early in
the spring. The butter produced is of
excellent quality and commands high
prices"
SINGULAR CASE OF GRIEF.-A Wash
ington letter says: Years ago young
mother became temporarily insane over
death of her first born, a beautiful boy.
She never wholly regained her reason.
But as she approached the borders of
sanity she stopped at the cradle of little
mulatto boy, born at the time her baby
died, and the child of her two servants.
Her insanity centered in the idea that the
cradle held her son, restored to life. She
took the child to her own room, and then
cared for it as though it had been her
own. The physicians said that if a
change came in her mental condition it

bopelessly insane. So the grief-stricken
father bought the yellcw-skinned child
from its parents and carefully encouraged
his wife in her fantastic belief. She has
never changed it, though the boy is now
a man at work, as [ write this gray after
noon, in one of the great executive de-
partments.
A new idea embraced in Ely's Cream
Balm. Catarrh is cured by cleansing and
healing, not by drying up. The applica-
ton is easy and agreeable. It is not q
LIQUID or snuff Prioe so cents.
Only two bottles. Messrs. Johnston,
Holloway & Co., wholesale druggists of
Philadel phia, Pa, report that some time
ago a gentleman handed them dollar,
with a request to send good catarrh cure
to two army officers in Arizona. Recent
ly the same gentleman told them that
both of the officers and the wife Of a
well-known u S. A. General has been
cured of catarrh by the two bottles OF
Ely's Cream Balm. (Not liquid or
snuff. Price so cents.
The restoration of health to our child
we considered uncertain When 2weeks
old she caught cold, For Is months was
not able to breathe through her nostrils.
Upon using Ely's Cream Balm her diff
Guilty is removed; she breathes naturally.
