STILL NO DISTINCT IMPROVEMENT
IN BUSINESS.
CONFIDENCE VERY SLOW
Until the Future Is More Clear-Cot.
ton, Hides. Wool and Pig Iron
Quite Active - Increase in
the Number of Failures
Trade Notes.

New YORK, Sept. 21.-R. G. Dan &,
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
There is still no distinct Improvement
in business, although conditions favor
it. Confidence slowly rises, specula-
tive buying of materials for future
use continues, imports of gold do not
cease and the Bank of England has
not tried to check them by further ad-
vances in rates as the weight of the
demand now falls upon France. But
an enormous business is held back
until the future is more clear Names
great majority had no such influence,
as was anticipated from verdict less
emphatic.
TO many minds nothing an Eastern
State can do in contest represented
as sectional gives sufficient assurance
how the Western and Southern States
may decide.
In cotton, hides, wool and pig iron,
buying, opening speculative in char
acter, marks the current business.
Resumption of work by good part
of the Fall River cotton mills and ad-
vances in some kinds of cotton goods
helped to raise the prices Of middling
uplands to sBc again, though realiz-
ing sent it down to 714c.
Failures for the past week have
been 81 in the United States against
213 last year and 80 in Canada against
80 last year.

A little over five years ago l became
afflicted with a malady. the name OF
which / do not know. My family nave
been troubled the same when they ar
rived at my age, and they said L was
on the same road and that there was
no cure for me. The symptoms were,
dizziness, loss Of memory. and an utter
prostration Of the nerves. The most no.
table trouble was a swimming OF thet
head, when 1 came In from walk or
was out standing In the sun or doing |;
any kind of exercise at all. When
would sit down. my head would swim
and everything would dance before my
eyes, and would become so dizzy that
/ would have to hold to a chair to keep
from falling; or II were sitting DOWN
and got up suddenly, everything would
whirl before me, and I would have To-
hold to the chair for some little time;i
my memory was so poor that 1t was dif-
fcult for me to remember some OF myil
best friends. This state Of things con-
tinued for about year and a half, and
kept getting worse and worse; | couldi
not remember anything, and my head
was In a constant whirl; everything
swan before me so that life was really
miserable.
ION the recommendation Of soma
friends, / went to my druggist, Mr.
Shrader, or Twenty-fourth and Clark

trial, and after taking a few doses
began to feel the effects and found
that they were doing me good. When
the first box was gone / got another
and another until 1 had taken four
boxes and / was entirely relieved-
And now, although my memory Is not
so good as 1T was forty years ago, it

SUM M ER GIRL.

First, remember that good voice i.
as essential to self-possession as good
ideas are essential to fluent language
Inc voice should be carefully trained
and developed: full, clear. flexible
voice is one of the surest indications of
good breeding.
Second, remember that cne NAV ha
witty withut being popular; voluole
without being agreeable; great talker
and yet great bore
Third, be sincere. One who habitual-
iy sneers at everything will not rem
der herself disagreeable to others but
Will soon cease to find pleasure in life
Fourth, be frank. A frank oman
countenance and a clear, CHEEKY laugh
are worth far more even socially than
'pedantry in a stiff crayat."
Fifth, be amiable. You NAV hide a
Vindictive nature under a polite ex-
terror for a time. as cat masks ,ts
sharp claws in velvet fur, but the Least
provocation brings out one as quickly
as the other, and ill-natured people are
always disliked.
