Cured on the same terms. The treatment is painless. I perform all manner of surgical operations pertaining to my speciality, and through the influence of anesthetics cause no pain. This a boon to the afflicted.
 There are many complications follow ing Private Diseases, such as Bad Blood, Skin, Bladder and Womb Troubles, Ul- cers, Pimples, Blotches, sore Mouth, etc., all of which quickly get well when the cause is removed.
 I wish to call special attention to my treatment of unfortunates suffering from the effects of Early Imprudence Errors of Youth, Loss of Vitality, Loss of Man. hood, Sexual Debility, or any of the mad dening effects. Get well and be man. Enjoy life as you should. Thousands of men and youths are occupying subordi- nate positions in life today who, if they were able to exercise their brain power to it's fullest capacity. would instead be leaders.
 Tn majority of cases can cure my pa- tients by mail treatment. I can furnish medicines from my Dispensary, or, as am Regular Licensed Physician. can write them prescriptions. If they prefer they can have them prepared by their home druggist.
 If you live in or near the city. call at my Private Dispensary. If at distance. write me your trouble. My book on Pri- vate Diseases and proper question lists will be sent on annlicatioR.

Chicago Change.

Chicago, March, 2-Statsticai news did not imbue buyers and holders of wheat with extraordinary courage or confidence today and the intelligence on the growing crop was very promising to the farmer. The elevator fire at Minneapolis occasoned a certain amount of buying an which the market opened higher and advanced a lit tie. Later there was recession, which carried prices under the final figures of Sat urday. May wheat opened at 6Sd6S1sc, sold between 6S1a and 67Ac, closing at 67i4@67asc, Ac under Saturday. Cash wheat was weak and 1c per bushel lower
 Corn-The only aid to corn was derived from wheat and extended over a short period at the opening. Later prices were soft and inclined to yield to anything un- the pressure was at no time very great. May corn opened at 90Ac, sold between 307s and 30fs6I3UAc, closing at 303sM30Ac, un- changed from Saturday Cash corn was steady.
 Oats-There is hardly any change in oats, and no event or happening worthy of rec ord occurred. The fluctuations were gov- erned principally by the action of wheat and corn, but the changes were of little consequence. Cash oats were quiet, but steady.
 Provsons-All the strength seen in pro- visions today came from the yards, where hogs were in moderate supply and firmer. Quite fair trade took place and prices maintained firm position throughout the session. May pork closed 712c higher than Saturday. May lard and ribs each 23M5c higher. Domestic and foreign markets were quiet, but steady.
 The leading futures ranged as follows:
