Review Of Portland wholesale Market

Review Of Portland Wholesale Market
FOR THE WEEK ENDING Meh 4
There has been no improvement in the wholesale
trade and the market remains as dull as previously
noticed Flour is quiet with lower prices Michi-
gan straight and roller; Spring Wheat patents show
slight falling off in prices; other brands dull and
unchanged; millers are generally off from l215@
25c u Dbl. Provisions steady with little better
feeling West on Pork and Lard. Fresh Beef is IN
good supply and most grades are lower, we now

Dyes the market for Quinne is easier at 1OGl 20,
and Lemon has declined from 7fl@2 60 to COG

on Turpentine; quoted at 37@44c. Tin is strong
and higher for Straits. Zine was hrmer last
week and at scme points higher rates prevailed,
subsequently prices weakened and the advance lost
Leather is very firm and more active; in the larger
markets an advance is looked for. Cooperage is less
active with no material variation in figures. The
demand for Dry Fish has improved; prices steady
and firmly held. Cheese is very slow and rather
weak. Apples steady and firm. Cabbages $40 y
ton. Grain continues in light stock and higher.
Fresh Fish have been in liberal receipts last sales
at 21ac u fb in a jobbing way. Hay unchanged at
$l5 y ton for loose.

TAUNTON, Mass.
DR.. DGvid Kennedy, Ro1dout. N. Y.
DEAR SIR: / am engineer on the Old Colony
Railroad and the Fall River boat train between
Fall River and Lowell, residing in Taunton. For
ten years suffered everything but death from dys
pepsia. Often l had such binding sick headaches
that could scarcely see think this was due part
y to irregular habits of eating and partly to the jar
of the engine. Sometimes my head would snap like
neuralgia, and again me pam would setLle IN my
eyes, which would feel as big as mans fists My
breath was very offensive and my food soured as
soon as il entered my stomach. In fact my stomach
felt as though it was great and sore surface,
and what agony it gave, perhaps you can imagine. q
In the summer and fall Of 1876 when we had the
heavy centennial travel the constant jar brought
acute attacks nearly every week and thought
should have to leave the road But kept at work
until the next spring, when grew so much worse
that could virtually eat nothing and concluded
that my labor and my life too were about over.
Remember that had tried every medicine heard
of, and had been treated by of the best physi

had taken it but few days when began to get
better The raw and sore feeling left my stomach,
and the swapping pains left my head, and was
all right and have been ever since. 1t IL the only
thing that did me the least good, and it drove
every ache, pain and discomfort completely out of
my body. Now keep KENNEDY'S FAVORITE
REMEDY with me my engine, and it goes where
ever go.
Why. believe FAvORITE REMEDY will cure
anything. One night, while ago, John Layton.
engineer who runs the main line boat train from
Boston, came on my engine sick as death. He was
out with work, had high fever and was so
nervous he almost broke down crying "Nonsense,
john" ! said "cheer mp, I've got something on my
engine that viii set you up in liify' / took out
my bottle of FAV0RITE REMEDY, lifted his
head and gave him good Dose He went to bed
