important to keep o stout spinal column,
for there the burdens fall on the physical
man. Nature is never at fault, and where
such stress comes she provides suPportS
It is the fault Of the individual who,
through negligence, exposure or impu-
dence, brings on = collapse of these sup
ports. Every one knows how the stitch in
the back comes, but every one doesn't know
the pFomptest md surest way TO catch II mp
and cure 1t permanently. The experiments
of those who know the secret are worth
recording. Mr.. Frank Monroe, FranCisville,
IL, January 30, 1887, says: "Three years
ago had rheumatism in the back (lumbago)
so bad could not dress myself. One bot
tie Of St. JaCobs Oil cured me, and have
not felt it since" Mr.. J. W. MciB, % Rock
street, Lowell, Mass, February, 1851, writes:
three years ago was taken with pains in
back, hips and legs; could not turn in bed
except by help of headboard; applied ST.
jacobs Oil several times TO my back. In
three days was sound and timber. Have
not had return since, though l had been
subject to spells for many years" Mr..
Jacob Mueller, Maysville, Wis, February,
1887, writes: "In 's4 was troubled with
an awful backache, aud suffered some time.
St. jacobs Oil cured me permanently; no
return" Mr.. L. W. Elliott, Ludington,
Mich, February 3, 1887, states: my wife
had not stopped in ten years to button her
shoe; she suffered intensely with lame
back. She tried st, Jacobs Oil; four bot
ties cured her, and she has had no troublein
six or seven years. Mr.. Horace L. Hop
kins, New Albany, Indiana, writes, June
TO- 1887: "su1ered two years ago with
acute pains in the back, also slight touch
of pleurisy. In one hour obtained great
relief from st. Jacobs Oil; three upplica.
lions cured me. In the morning pains were
gone, and have had no recurrence Of 1t
since" May II, 1887, Mr.. A. A. Cunning
ham, PerryOpoIiS, Pa, writes: "My wife
was sorely afflicted with lame back; sui.
fered several years. She used innumcrable
linimcnts and plasters without relief; used
St. Jacobs Oil, and she was cured by 1t, and
would not keep house without it." The
maxim ought to be, keep n straight, strong
back, and the rest Of the anatomy will be
strong also.

A STATE DEVELOPER
TO BE ISSUED FROM TINS OFFICE.
The 1otslllEsnoor Preparing a Mammoth
state Edition for Circulation Abroad.
An Enterprise in tho Success of
which Every citizen Is Interested.

TIE INrELLIaRNcRR has for some time
had in preparation, and willlssue as soon
as the work can be satisfactorily compile
ted, special edition dsvoted to the nat
ural resources and developed industries Of
West Virginia.
This special edition viii be about the
same number Of pages as the Natural Gas
Industrial Editiou-from IS to 2o-whlch
had very large circulstiou, for which
there are still demands, and which did
good in its day and generation.
The State Development Edition of the
ISTR1LIaEScKR will cover in general and
in detail tho whole field Of West Viz.
Elpia's resources, will neglect no locality,
will represent on large map the railroads
in existence and projected, water ways
county roads aud turnpikes-iu short will
endeavor to answer in advance every
question that may be asked by the capt.
tails! or the inqutring person in search Of
a home.
1t is the intention Of the INTELLIaENcER
in this State Development Edition to blow
West Vireinias horo, and We can safely
promise that the blast will be rather
sweet sounding music. 1t will DO heard
in this country and in Europe sounding
the note of an hospitable welcome to our
richly endowed Mountain State.
The arrangements for iasuripg the pa.
per wide circulation have only begun,
but thus far they make sure Of the wide
spreading Of 10000 copies. There is a
good prospect that tho actual circulation
will double this. What is Of equal Inn
portance, tho quality OF the production
will be such as would do credit to any
newspaper in the country.
The INrEILIaRNcKR will welcome tho
suggestions and cooperation generally OF
any person who feels an interest in this
effort to plscs eur Slate well before the
world. Whatever Is to be submitted in
this line should be sent fh at once, for the
INrRLLIGENcER has it's eye on tho spring
immigrant and doesn't want to let him get
away.
Thoqe desiring copies Of the paper for
distribution will oblige ia by sending
their orders at once, 80 that we msy
know about how many copies to print.
Everybody can help his State come by
helping to Circulate the printed page that
tells of her opportunities for making
money.
Those having land to sell, in large tracts
or small, will Gnd this their best OpporLu-
nifty to lay their holdings before persons
likely to purChass. Advertisements
should BIO sent in without delay. The
publishers will be glad to give informa-
ton relating to this feature OF the enter
prise.
The hour has come, and the INrELII-
eENcER is in the field with all It's energy
to aid in tho toO.long delayed develop

THE WOOL MARkETs.
A fair amount Of business Is being done
in Eastern wool markets on the basis Of
last weeks quotstions. There seems 70 be
rather more activity In Boston and Phila-
delphia than in New York. The manu-
iActuTers are taking contracts freely tor
heavyweight goods ct last years values
or lower, and no longer hesitate TO buy
material for une during the spring. A
month ago they asked for concessions ;
now they are ready to take supplies Of
quotations when they and what auits
them. Apart from this the situation is
unchanged.
Prices at the London sales declined the
first OF the week, and the result was re-
yivAI Of demand and o gteadying OF the
market. Competition is moderately &C
tive, with a large proportion OF the pur'
chpses going to the Continent. American
buyers are doing but little.
Prices are atrong In Boston and the mar
ket Is fairly active. Buyers have taken
sample lota freely and arc laying In sup
plies for future needs to considerable ex-
tent, Michigan y wool Is firm St 2sa2S

woods are in request. Supplies OF many
descriptions Of the staple are light Aus
traliRn wool in particular ia scarce and the
anticipated arrivals will go directly to the
mills in q great measure. Nothing is do

arc taken rapidly. Current quotations,

In Philadelphia there has been q slight
improvement in the demand for wool, but
none In prices. The tone Of the market,
however, is steadicr at recent quotations.
