A BULL DAY on CHANGE.
The Report That the French Government Is
BuyinS Up Grain and Provisions in
America OvercOmes All Bearish News
Strength Rules in All the Pits.

The Report That the French Government Is
BuyinS Up Grain and Provisions in
America overcomes All Bearish News
Strength Rules in All the Pits.
CHTCAGo-Local sentiment in the wheat
pit was bullish to-day, and it was sufficiently
influential to keep the price above the clos
ing figures of yesterday throughout the
session in spite of the generally bearish
character OF the news received. The foun-
dation Cor this sentiment appeared to be an
article in morning paper saying that the
French Government has agents in this
country commissioned to buy enormous
quantities of wheat and -four. The fact that
the amount OF wheat and -four on ocean
passage decreased L,72s 900 bushels last week
tended to strengthen the confidence of the
bulls, and the fact that the rains in the
winter wheat belt west of the Mississippi
river were not heavy enough to put the
ground in condition for plowing for winter
wheat seeding WAS also cited by them On
the other hand cables were weak and lower.

A few hasty words before breakfast

A few hasty words before breakfast
spoils the entire day.
1t may be you can see in the above
decided misunderstanding between
the twain that should be as one.
Do you ever arise with an extremely
bad taste in your mouth ? 1t may be
you are severely constipated, troubled
with indigestion.
No appetite for breakfast. Feel
hot and flushed. You feel either low
spirited, or you display a nasty tenn
per. Destroys the good feeling of
your home.
These ale different ways that Ma
ture has to tell you that she has been
outraged.
Nature gives you fair notice that
she requires assistance.
Read what the renowned Chemist,
Baron Won Liebig, says:
"It is more than probable that the
main specific and most important ac-
ton of Carlsbad Sprudel Salts, the
so-called solvent and liquifying action
is dependent upon the alkaline con-
stituents. We know the bile to be a
saponaceous, that is an alkaline, COM
bination; and that the physiological
use of the bile is to free the system
from its superfuous fats. Now, what
Nature accomplishes in its normal
state, we produce artifcially by the
use of Carlsbad Sprudel Salts"
This remedy is sovereign. 1t has
been used in its original shape by
emperors, kings, statesmen, poets,
ETC., for 500 years. Every drugstore
has them. The genuine has the sig-
nature of "Eisner & Mendelson Co.,
Sole Agents, New York, on the bot
tie. Begin to use them to-day.
Pleasant to take.
