superior to them all that they are not
even good imitators.
Paines Celery Compound positively
and permanently cures nervous debility
and exhaustion. Neuralgia, sleepless-
ness, melancholia, hysteria and headaches
yield to it's refreshing properties-all
these troubles are directly traceable to
the one cause, poorness of the blood and
poorness of the nervous tissues.
For kidney troubles it is the most in
fallible of remedies. 1t owes it's unfailing
power to check at once the progress of
this breakdown among the tissues of the
kidneys to its remarkable nutritive eff
cheney.
Just as soon as Paine's Celery Com
pound begins its Strengthening work there
is at once rallying of all the important
organs of the body. The appetite i'm
proves, the spirits become more hopeful,
the dull pains of disease lessen, sound, re-
freshing sleep returns, "that tired, worn
out feeling" departs, and the sufferer
knows, without being told by physician,
that he or she is getting well.
The season of March, April and May
the spring time, when if one can do so he
must recuperate his lost strength and get
back the health that nature intended for
him-that season is here. 1t behooves
every man, woman and youth now to
get well. And Paine's Celery Compound
makes people well.

FINANCIAL REVIEW.

New York, March 1S-Bradstreet'
Financial Review tomorrow will say:
In speculative sense the week has
been disappointment The success of
the bond issue did not arouse any out
side interest in the market, either here
or in London, and the rapid rise of ex-
change rates created fear of gold exports
which, though unfounded, tended to Gre
ate bearish feeling. The dividend on
Canadian Pacific had been the influence
and activity during the early part of the
week was almost entirely at the expense
of values. 1t was not until Friday that
the increase of the short interest brought
about rally and strengthened the mar
ket which, however, was also somewhat
affected by the absence of the expected
gold shipments and by the approaching
adjournment of congress. The closing
of the subscription for the new four Del
cent government bonds, with applica
tons on this side of the ocean for about
20O,OOO,OOO, and the fact that the bid
ders received only a small proportion Of
the amounts asked for, has, of course
been one of the chief mattrs of inter
est Its effect on the market has, how
| ever, been neutralized by the unexpected
strength of exchange and the probability
| that gold might be taken from the treas
| ury and shipped abroad even before tn,
syndicate had carried out its bargains
The exchange was certainly nervous ant
strong, with rates at level that would
allow of gold shipments. At the same
time it is evident that the syndicate con
trolls the situation, and that while it can
not prevent rates from rising, it is able
for some time to come to check shipments
of specie. London was not only dis
turbed by the action of exchange here
but took the passing of the Canadian Pa.
cifc dividend as another reflection on
American securities. This, of course,
was unjust, as the stock has never been
a favorite here. London, however, was
seller of its specialties and of Louisville

COTTON CONVENTION.
SUGGESTIONS FOR
FARMERS AND GINNERS.
Cotton Must Be Covered More Carefully
in the Future-Other Timely Point
ers That Should be Needed
by Cotton Men.

The Galveston cotton convention which
has just ad;ourned adopted to. follow
ing resolution, which is of importance
to all persons who raise and handle cot
ton:
Whereas, the insufficient covering of
American cotton by material of inferior
quality is notorious and ragged condi-
ton of the bale when landed at the ports
of discharge and at mill points has be-
come constant source of loss and incon-
venience to shippers and consignees, be
it resolved, that from and after Sept.
1, 1895, all bales of the new crop not fully
covered with bagging of a minimum
weight of two and quarter pounds per
yard shall be declared unmercantable
unless recovered at the expense of the
seller.
Resolved, further, That this rule be
brought to the attention of all bagging
manufacturers of the country, with the
request and recommendation that for the
ensuing year they manufacture cotton
bagging of the above standard weight
of fiber only, woven sufficiently close and
calendered to such a degree as to per-
init of the clear and distinct marking of
the bale.
Resolved, furthr, That the attention
OF the manufacturers be directed to the
Importance of making steel ties and
buckles out of the best material only and
not lighter than 45 pounds per bundle
of 30 ties of II to II IL feet in length"
Resolved further, That copy of these
resolutions and memorial be mailed to
every ginner in Texas, and the press be
requested to give them the widest pos
sible publicity among farmers.
1t is also recommended to all ginners
to adopt uniform box for baling cot
ton of 60 inches in length and % inches
in width, which dimensions experience
has proved to be the most suitable for
COMPRISING of the bales, as well as for
their transportation in railroad cars and
storage by. vessels. The present irregu-
larity of the gin boxes is the cause of
much of the poor COMPRISING and loss
OF space to the carrier, resulting in high
er freights to the detriment of the far
mer, and serves as an excuse, although
totally unwarranted, for the plucking and
cutting of bales by stevedores of vessels.

BRADSTREET's TRADE REVIEW

bhADSlhEBlS lhADE III IL w.
New York, March 1.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say:
While the general course of trade dur
ing the first two months of the current
year has been disappointing. February
ends and March begins with tangible,
though not as yet satisfactory signs of
improvement. Larger eastern jobbers
of dry goods report the trade meeting
present wants, only that foreign dress
goods are active and competitive domestic
fabrics considerably lower.
Exports of wheat, including flour as
wheat, both coasts of the United States
against 1,SOS,OOO bushels last week,
2,472,00 bushels in the week year ago
and 1921 ,060 bushels in the last week of
February, 1893, and 100000 bushels
in the corresponding week in 1892. Two
Independent calculations as to the wheat
remaining in the United States, March 1,
1895, indicate that the total quantity in
the country back of available supply
points in wheat an excess of 100,000,000
bushels as compared with perhaps 140,-
0OO,00 a year ago. The approximate to-
tai quantity of wheat at available points
throughout the United States and back
of the same at present time is about
204,OO0,OOO bushels, whereas one year
ago the corresponding total was 246000,-
600 bushels. The stock speculation in the
New York market has been irregular,
Bearish influences were aroused by the
advance of exchange rates and the ac-
companying advance revived foreign or
public interest in the market The sell,
ing, however, seems to have been mainly
short stock and at the end there is a
rally on the short interest due to the alb
sence of gold shipments.
Toronto advices are that spring openings
in dry goods and millinery result in in
creased activity, aided in part by milder
weather.

Grant,s Councils of War.

"In one respect Grant," said Colonel Mo. Fall of St. Louis, who served with him before Vicksburg, was source of great worriment to the commanding officers talk ing part in his councils of war. This came from his reticence during the coun- cils and his prompt individual action aft erward. Grant would sit and listen to all the others had to say, smoking his cigar and occasionally taking a drink as this hospitable refreshment might be passed around. Then, when the talk was all over and every one had expressed his opinion as to what should be done Grant would leave tho tent and go to Rawlins, his chief of staff, and begin issuing orders. No one knew to what decision he had arrived, and they would havo no idea what the next movement was to be until their orders were received. Especially to General John A. Logan, who commanded the division of which my regiment was part after Nc. Pherson was killed was this trait of Grants trial.
 "D-n it all!'' Logan would say in his impetuous way. ''If Grant would only give us some idea of what he was think ing about But no, he just listens with out word, and then, when we've told all we know and think, off he goes to Raw lins, and that's tho last we sec or hear of him until his orders for the next move ment come to usl"-St, Louis Post Dis patch.

"A TORONTO BLAZE
In Which One Million Dollars Worth of Property Was Destroyed.
 Daring Escapes.

TORONTO, Jan. 10.-Fire started at 2 o'clock this evening in the Osgoodby build- ing on Melinda street, in close proximity to the store of s. F. McKinnon & Co.,, where the disastrous fire of last Sunday burned itself out. The Osgoodby building was soon entirely destroyed.
 The flames spread west and southwest to Wellington street, and in less than an hour burned out the following places: k. H. Gray & Co.,, furnishing goods; Breton & Menning; Bomas, Dunnet & Co.,; E. Boeseau 6 Co.,, clothing; Robert Darling ton & Co.,. importers of woolens. The last named building was very high and the hose reached only half way up to the top floor, and tbe firemen were almost power less.
 The fire then crossed Wellington street to Hunter, Hose & Co.,. picturers. printers and wholesale book sellers; Hart & Rid dell, wholesale statiouers, and Buntin, Read & Co.,, paper manufacturers. A fire started and afforded the fremen some assistance. Sparks were carried half a mile from the scene of the fire.
 When tho fire started in the Osgoodby building the janitor, his wife and daughter, the wife prostrate from the effect of last Sundays fire, were confined in a room on tho top flat. The lire escape could not be reached in time, and all three mad to slide down wire rope clad in their night clothes. The sick woman slid part of the way down and then fell, landed in blanket held out for her. She was terribly injured. The men came down without injury. The loss is estimated at Fl 000 GOO.

Wbittier's ROyhOOd.

To illustrate tho fact that children suf- fer intensely from causes which their eld- CTS regard as trivial and which they them- selves are inclined to laugh at in later life MT. Whittier once told this story of his boyhood to friend: It was at an ancient hillside farmyard near Haverhill. In ascending this hill his father was in tho habit of relieving his horse by walking, and Greenleaf was expected to walk also, It was a terrible trial to the boy, for a gander would begin his warlike threats as soon as he saw him, and in later life Whittier declared he could have marched up to a hostile battery without such a sinking of the heart as he felt whenever he approached this harmless but noisy fowl If he had dared to tell his father of his agony of dread, he could have remained safely in tho carriage But the fear of be- ing laughed at prevailed over every other consideration. Mir. Whittier thought this was the experience of many children, and that parents should treat their apparently petty troubles with more seriousness than is their custom.

No Trust to Be Placei In Equilibrium
 When a Curve Is Struck.

There is generally fun in whisking around tho Fourteenth street curves on tho Broadway cable cars-that is to say, there is fun for tho knowing, who have learned by experience to brace themselves well beforehand. There are generally some persons in crowded car who arc taken unawares and are made to do the most ridiculous things.>
 It is no uncommon thing to see man standing in tho passage suddenly precipi tated into the arms of the lady sitting in front of him as tho car whisks around the first curve, and then, whom he rises to apologize, as suddenly pumped down in tho lap of tho lady behind him as the car makes the second curve.
 This is rubbing it in. The unfortunate man now has apologies to make on both sides of the car, and while he is recovering himself for this double duty, meantime rescuing his hat from the floor and blush ing like a schoolgirl, tho car makes a sharp tilt at Fifteenth street, and, like enough, sends him to his knees on the floor
 Great Jupiter" /" exclaimed an elderly man recently after such an experience, ''the American public is indeed long suf- fering''
 Sometimes, when car is greatly crowd ed and the passage is full of standing men, the sudden curves create no end of excitement, and now and then somebody gets little hurt
 There was an amusing incident the other day. Two gentlemen entered the car from opposite doors, and both reached the only vacant seat at the same time. Tho car was just starting from Four teenth street northward.
 Sit down." said No. 1, lowing
 No; you sit down." replied No. 9, not to be outdone in politeness.
 No; beg of you take the seat. You got here first, " said No. 1.
 No, no" began No. 9, but jSst then the car took tho curve, and No. l was pre- cipitated with great violence into the seat.
 You have earned your seat, laughed No 9.
 1T have indeed, was the rueful reply.
 The gripmen say they have to make all curves at full speedr as otherwise they are in danger of losing the cable.-New York Herald
