THERE IS NO COMBINE.
Chicago Packers Deny Story Sent From
 New York.

New York.
 Chicago April 10-The story tele- graphed from New York to a Chicago paper that the recent advance in beef was not justified and that the big Chi cago packers were making an effort to control the meat market of the country and advance prices to consumers is en- phatioally denied by Messrs. Nelson Morris, George F. Swift, Armour & Co. and other pacel1rs.
 'The advance of the price on dressed beef," said Nelson Morris this morning, lis the natural result of the scarcity of cattle. Already this year the receipts of cattle at the four principal points Chicago, St. Louis, Omaha and Kansas City-are S00,000 head behind last year s record. Last week the receipts were 29000 head short, which is equal to 1S,- 100000 pounds of dressed beef. We are 16,000 head short already this week. The price of live stock is now $2 per 100 pounds higher than it was last year, and expect to see prices go still high CT"
 MT. Swift also denied that there was combine among the packers.
 Manager Favorite of P. D. Armour 6 Go. said the only causes for the high price of cattle are the scarcity of beeves and the failure of the corn crop.

THE HAPo1Eox1o PERIOD.
Napoleon's Plans For Strengthening His
 Fmpire,


 | Empire.
 Professor Arthur M. Wheeler gave his fifth lecture on the "Napoleonio Period" at the Historical society build Ing yesterday afternoon. The last of the series will be given on Wednesday afternoon of next week.
 The subject was taken up where Ma poleon had attempted to surround France, by the intermarriage of his family, with the noblemen of surround ing territory. He spoke in part as fol- lows: This was partly successful and was to aid him in the future. Guerilla warfare was being waged against Ma poleon and he found 1t hard to con tend with. From behind every wall his men were being fired upon. This was taking the very life from the French army. It is said that after very trying time and a long march Napoleon went to his headquarters and throwing himself upon his couch slept for thirty-six hours, no one daring to wake him.
 1t seems that he should have taken a lesson from this treatment. He should have seen that his enemies were making use of his own tactics and strategy, and that unless he had su- perior numbers he could not hope to overcome them.
 Napoleon had pictured to himself Europe divided into states of not over four or five million all living in peace under the rule of member of his fa Y11flHr ot sornanp who rrn,I1d I, Q va I,ie best interests always at stake It is exercised her influence over him she could have withheld him from many of these fantastic schemes.
 Napoleon was not ready to stop at the line drawn by the negotiations of 1909; he was bartering for better terms with Austria. He started for Austria and while on his way boy of about eighteen was seen to be erowding through the rank of officers which sur rounded him. He was taken by one of the officers and searched and long knife was found under his jacket When asked what he intended to do, he frankly admitted that he had come all the way from the northern part of Germany on foot with the intention of taking Napoleons life. Napoleon continued on to Austria and there had an interview with the Austrian gen. erals and tried to persuade them to march with him against Russia, but they refused to go. He said to them, You do not look upon this with a soldiers heart. I was brought up in camp
 Shall we compare Napoleon to the | men of his time? If we do, we will zee he stands head and shoulders above them all; not only in military work, but in the building up of kingdom"

OLD BREWERY SOLD.
George RingIer S Go. Sell Out to the Qui n
 nipiac Brewing Company.

George RingIer < Go. Sell Out to the Qui n nipiac Brewing Company.
 The old brewery at the corner of East and Chapel streets owned by George Ringler & Co. of New York has been sold to the Quinnipiac Brew ing company of this city, the terms of the contract including the entire ale business of the former firm, both in this city and in New York.
 By this purchase the Quinnipiac Brewing company will have an addi- tional capacity of 25,OOO barrels of ale, making their total capacity about 1OO,- 900 barrels annually But the ale will not be manufactured at the East street brewery, as that will be dismantled and sold, but extra facilities will be provided at the Quinnipiac companys plant for the work The old building will be sold as soon as possible.
 The significance of the purchase is that the Quinnipiac company has bought out the entire ale business of the Ringler company, who are large brewers of lager beer, and they will thus have an entrance into New York for their product. The consideration was in the neighborhood of $500
 The old brewery is about the first ever established in this city or state, and was originally owned by John ]. Phelps; then it passed out of his hands and was called respectively the New Haven Brewing company and the Elm City Brewing company. The business failed a few years ago, and the plant remaining idle for some time was bought by the Ringler company

for Proper Growth.
The Young Body Fails to Get

Body Cannot Grow Without Pure,
Sturdy Blood.
UnequaIied Value OF Paine's Celery Compound

From birth till past the ago of 30 there
is growth; some of the bones do not conf
plctoly knit tin 80.
All this time ia addition there is the
steady waste of the tissues that must he
repaired The demand upon the vitality
and upon the powers of assimilation is
thus enormous during these years. With
out plenty of rich, nourishing blood,
growth must be defective and tardy. But
when il courses through all the arteries
in fun, vigorous stream, growth goes
on steadily and perfectly.
What countless numbers of frail
youngsters physicians see whose pitiably
thin wrists ana bloodless faces cry out for
better nourlshment. All this does not
escape the vigilant insight of parents. In
thousands of homes il is well known that
the boys and girls are somehow badly
nourished
The weak stomachs and organs of
assimilation cannot extract the food for
growing nerves and brain in sufficient
quantities from the ordinary diet, a
special nerve diet is what they need
Paine's celery compound is Prof. Edward

ing these little frames and making them
grow into strong. active men and women.
DR. Phelps, upon whom colleges confer
red their highest honors for his invaluable
Investigations in medicine, knew from
ripe experience the exact needs of these
little sufferers.
A chorus Of gratitude has gone up all
over the country, from mothers of children
once weakly and pale, without promise of
ever growing into robust men and women
who have outgrown weakness aud lack
of vitality by the use of Paino's celery
compound, taken with the regularity that
physicians adhere to when prescribing
this wonderful nerve and blood restora-
tive.
1t is valuable in all wasting diseases,
in cleansing the blood OF rheumatism,
