WHAT A'Ls THE PEOPLEe
The True Cause of Most Physical
Troubles Made Perfectly Clear.

'What are the principal ailments of
the American peoples"
This question was recently put by re
porter to Dr. Ephraim Cutler, whose name
stands foremost in the ranks Of the medi-
cal profession. His answer was:
"Bright's disease
"The great increase of this fearful
malady is attracting universal attention.
Everyone is anxious to know how it is
brought on. "What causes it, Doctor. J"
4hThe physician paused for few minutes
before replying, and then said; II can best
explain that by very simple lliustra
ton Any one who eats beefsteak knows
what is=fat and what is lean. Now, If
the muscle Of the steak is partially
changed to fat, it is called fatty degen-
Grafton In the same way, with the
human body, if the kidney substance
changes into fat, it is called 'Brlghts

people will only take the right remedy
at the right time. AS a rule, it is only
when they break down, lose appetite,
find their complexion sallow, con

inhamed eyes that they. suspect any
thing is wrong American genius has
found it possible to arrest diseases of
the liver and kidneys and to positively
cure Bright's disease. The discovery of

of men and women who are alive to-day
and kept in health entirely through its
use. This fact is now known and admit
ted by physicians in every portion OF
the globe"
The words of the doctor are true ano
they demand the serious consideration of
everyone who reads these lines. Bright's
disease is, undoubtedly, the most alarm
ing OF all our modern diseases. 1t often
comes without warning. has few symp-
toms of its own, but shows the signs of
almost all other complaints. Any man
or woman who is at all ''out of sorts"
should net hesitate, for it is a we'll

NEW YORK, Nov. 8.-R G.. Dun &
sC1's Weekly Review of Trade, which
issues tomorrow, will say:
''It has been broken week, and just
before and after elections in the most
important States, operations rarely have
much significance Business may be
largely affected in time, but as yet there
is scarcely any indication what the et-
feet will be. The controlling power at
present is the effort to readjust prices
after the remarkable rise of last summer
in important materials and products,
with the struggle of great comoinatlons
to prevent decline.
Cotton mills do well, as the halt and
hesitation in cotton does not stop buy
ing of goods, and many believe goods
safe at current prices, even If cotton is
not The market for raw cotton is held
at s.S1 cents in spite of highly re-
spectacle estate of only 6,435, 600 bales
for the wear. Even at that the supply
of 8, 400, 900 would be more than enough,
but other estimates are much higher.
Wheat falls back with great reluctance
from it's summer rise of 20 cents, but
has declined lac for the week, western
receipts being s,019, $40 bushes, against
3,S45, 032, for the same week last year
Belief in crop much smaller than last
wears has to resist actual receipts OF
AZ. 725. 1863 bushels in six weeks, against
80. 446 005 last year, and Atlantic ex-
ports have been only 1908, 424 bushels,
flour included, against 13,347, 619 last
year. The exports in winter wheat from
some States are also better.
Corn comes forward largely, receipts
being more than double last years, when
nearly a million bushels went abroad.
The rapid marketing of supplies of wheat
from Russia and Argentine, and the
larger exports of corn from this country,
both tend to lessen the future demand
for American wheat.
Failures for the week have been 2S0in
the United States against 26t last year,
and 40 in Canada, against AZ last year
Bradstreet's Review of Trade.
New YoaK. Nov. S.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say
The interruption to general trade
throughout the country, incident to cleo
ton, has been emphasized by unusually
mild weather, which checks demand for
clothing, heavy weight textiles and other
seasonable goods. Jobbers almost of the
large distributing centers report that
orders row received are largely of fill
ing in character.
Except for iron, steel and cotton, the
larger portion of advices in prices OF
commodities reported since March last,
has largely disappeared. Earlier antici-
pations of continuous advices in prices
and demand this year, the outgrowth of
the activity of two and three months ago,
have met with disappointment. But there
is little reason for the reaction
in sentiment by many who discuss bust
ness conditions. Every wave OF in
creased demand since the tide began to
rise in March, has resulted in net gain.
Sentiment of traders generally is that the
outlook promises an active spring trade,
and that the holiday season will prove
satisfactory. The feature of the bust
ness week among larger eastern cities is
an improve demand ford textiles, with
increased strength in iron at Pittsburg
after the recent reaction.

SOUTHERN GCEsNIECS
.The snn Do Morr" I.rcacher.

A correspondent writing from Eich-
 mond, Va. to the Boston Transcript,
 says: 1t is hardly an exaggeration to say that since the death Of Frederick Douglass Rev John Jasper, pastor of the Sixth Mount Zion Baptist church of Richmond, is the most influential colored man in the south. He is 1 typical negro from his retreating fore head to the soles of his ample #. Had not Rev. John Jasper been quested eighteen years ago by a mem- Der of his congregation to expound the text found in Exodus xv., 3: 1.-The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is His
 name," he would in all probability never have been known outside of his native state; but on account of the theory developed in this sermon, that
 the sun moves around the earth, he
 has received notoriety that is almost
 worldwide. He is fond of u.Ing big
 words-the bigger the better-and is
 not at all particular as to whether he
 uses or misuses them; but Mir. Jasper is
 possessed of simple dignity and evi- dent earnestness, and these command
 respect even when he propounds his
 theory that de sun do move" He
 was born July 4, 1872, in Fluvanna
 county, Va, being the youngest of twenty-four children. His father was noted exhorter iE his old age.
 ''De Doctor" as the members of his church delight to call him, is still
 an active man. in spite of his s3 years. 1 He has preached his famous sermon
 hundreds of times, the first delivery
 having been in his present church, a
 neat brick structure, bought by his | flock in 1868. It is never exactly the
 same except in the main point. Mir.
 Jasper, it is said, at one time baptised 300 people in two hours. being an aver | age of one in twenty-five seconds. His
 church has a membership of 2,o0o, and is free of debt.

Georgia Rice,

The rice crop in this vicinity, says the Savannah (Ga.) News, is in excel lent condition. Some of the planters are apprehensive that the continued heavy rains will have bad effect, but there have been no indications so far. The rice is just between seasons now. The harvest water is being turned on. and the early rice has begun to shoot or develop the heads of grain. It IS impossible to make any predictions just yet, but the planters all regard the prospect as very good. The acreage around Savannah this year is about the same as last year, being about 9, 900 acres.
