a Novel Experiment..

About year ago common fodder plant, taste
less as wood was accidently found to have most
remarkable sustaining power after hard labor elth-
er mental or physical. acting on the nerves IKE
food Two hundred and seventy girls, who were
engaged at piece-WOrk in large establishment In
New York, conceived the idea of buying a large
amount of the manufacturer at the wholesale price
and take it constantly. At the end OF SIX months
they found its support had made it possible to do
almost double the amount of work by giving in
creased strength, and preventing overwork from
compelling them to lose time by resulting illness.
If all classes of people were as shrewd as these
girls whose necessities drove them to the expert
ment it would improve things very much. The plant
in question was accidentally discovered by Lieut..
Moxie 1t seems to be wholly nerve food and has
created great deal of 1t stops nerV-
BUSINESS and nervous exhaustion at once. The drug
gists sell it, and it is known as Moxie Nerve Food.
1t is said to be so cheap, most any one can afford
to take it the year round-ten cents worm Gay IS
about its cost
In New York and Chicago the young men tipple
all the evening, and then knock their booZy out
with mug of the Moxie Nerve Food, which is now
getting to be known the great dissipation repair
er. 1t takes nervous exhaustion out OF woman IN
a week, breaks up recent drunk in an hour; and
now husbands can have good time until II NJ,
drink mug of Moxe at 1915, arrive home per-
fectly sober at 1.30, and make the wife believe
they have been at work in the counting room IKE
good boy If it will make an editors pocket feel
better, we want barrel.

REVIEW OF PORTLAND WHOLESALE MARKET

FOR THE WEEK ENDING, Aug 4.
The volume of business continues good with lit
tie change in values. The principal feature of the
week in food products has been the rise in corn,
due to the unfavorable crop reports, high mixed
car lots closing here at 57@5Sc, with little
easier feeling at New York and the West. The
-four market shows no change of consequence,
with fair trade at steady prices. Sugar declined
=sstsrd dsy =sc rrt rf torrs rre. :sii5T toiay
and prices went up 1sc with steadier market at
New York. Hogs products firmly held; prices
without quotabe change. The fish trade is rath-
er light. At retail small mackerel have been
selling at &c }9 ib or sc dozen, and large mack
erel 12c pound; salmon about out of the mark
