A. L. MURDOCH:
Dear Sir--I would like to tell you of our ex
perience with your Liquid Food, for feel very
sure that in the mercy of God it saved my hiis
bands life.
Two years ago, my husband worn out with en-
cessiye watching and anxiety by reason of a
severe illness of mine, together with the
pressure of his duties as principal of q high
school, broke down completely, nervous ex-
haustion, severe rhematism, amounting almost
to rheumatic fever, and complete arrangement
of the digestive system so that he could not
keep milk on his stomach, or the simplest lioar-
ishnlent, brought him down very low.
Our physician, nearly in despair, tried one
thing after another, but all to no good At last
he hit ON your Liquid Food the effect was mag
ical The very first dose made itself felt like u
thrill of new life; his Improvement was very
rapid, his appetite rayenous, and he gained flesh
very fast His rheumatism, too, which had
troubled him exceedingly for several years, was
very much relieved, and, in short, lie seemed
and felt like new man. To all who knew, him
and his former condition, he was a walking
advertisement OF MurdOck's Liquid Food. Since
that time, when he becomes debiitated through
overwork or indigestion, a little of the Liquid
Food will soon set him right again.
Feeling that we both owe you a large debt of
gratitude, and this acknowledgement OF the
benefit received, l am
Yours respectfully,
MRS. PERCIVAL F. MARSTON,
;an1lM, W&Fu Andover, Mass.

At New York, yesterday, money was easy,
ranging from az per CENT; last loan 2, clos
ing per cent. Prime mercantile paper was
quoted at 3s4@5A per cent. Sterling Ex-
change was quiet and easier with actual bust
ness in bankers bills at S514 for eo-day
bills and SO for demand; posted rates at
861ag4 SO. Commercial bills were at S4sz
"a 871s. Government bonds were dull and
heavy. Railroads were active and rather heavy.
The general list in the stock market after IL
O'Clock still remained without feature OF import
ance, but dealings were enlivened by sharp
squirt in coalers, which failed to stimulate ac-
tivity or movement in other stocks. Reading
moved up Is, rallying nearly its opening price.
The squirt died away toward l and dizziness
again became the principal characteristic OF the
market, While Reading afterWard moved up 1a
with firm tone prevailing in rest of the list,te
market closing active and firm at small fractions
better than opening figures.
Transatactions at the Stock Exchange aggre-
gated 321. 200 shares.

RON, the French s~avsnt, got his data for
ihe curious speculstions be gives as to
height and other proportions of Adam
and Eve. In his remarkable work, 1.-The
Degeneration of the Human Race" pub.

TO the crown of the head. OF course all
who have read very extensively the Tai

with feet ON earth and head in heaven
until after God pressed him down at the
time Of the fall"

earth to the other, and il takes q man
500 years to walk that distance.

they saw that gigantic human being and
bowed before him crying. Holy, holy.

cutting off great chunks Of flesh" These
are all absurd legendary stories, oil
