A Healthy body and a Clear Head.

If indigestion. constipation and biliousness torment the body, the head cannot be clear. These disorders react upon the brain most hurtfully, and produce cloudiness in the organ of thought not experienced by healthy man. Happily, these braIn-oppretsing mala- dies may be entirely dis pelled by that peerless alternative, Hostet CTS Stomach Bitters, which cheers, refreshes and invigorates the brain and nerves whilsis regulates the organs of digss- tion, assimilation and bilious secretion. It e1pels the the nor bid humors which poison the system through the bowels and urinary pass ages, and e1erts a powerful invisorAting in : fluence as we'll. Its cathsrtio action is never irritating, violent or painful. but even, natural and progressive. As an appetizer and sleep promoter, the Bitters is unrivalled;it mitigates the infirmities of age, relieves the ailments pe- culiar to the gentler sex, arrests premature de- cay and builds up snfeeblsd physique.

FROM BradStreets summary of trade
 for last week We take the following highly encouraging and uGdiapu seo facts concerning the revival of business
 generally and which must give the oroakers very little consolation. The excerpt is Rs follows:
 'Evidences Of widespread revival in demand for merchandise and otheE pro- ducts have become so numerous ss tc
 to compel general recognition. The
 press has, therefore, ceased discussing
 whether trade has really improved OF
 not, and have begun measuring the vol
 ume of business compared with preced-
 ing periods.
 "A buoyapcy of feeling has appeared
 amorg buyers end sellers st New York,
 Baltimore, Chicago, St. Louis and K sn-
 ses City, where interior merchants have
 thFonged this week, the like of which
 has not been esen for several yeEss. In
 terioY merchants are buying dry goods, cIoshiDg, shoes, groceries and fancy az
 ticles far more freely than ss any time since 1892. Crop conditions have i'm
 proved ct the south and south west, and merchants shere aEs encouraged. South aFn lumber mills are not able to keep up with oTdere, and ipnumeFaole small oonsumors Of i4on snd steel through raw meteFiel es they have not for years.
 A nominal advance Of 75c s 1on for steel biilete is more than feature, as it means the confidence of makers in en early revival of the demand for iron and steel which has been so long delayed. Wheat scores sp advance Of To on con- tinued heevy exports and tendency to decrease estimates of the size Of the do nestle crop. Wool is higher on specu- lstive holding and cotton yarne hevs advanced again. Hides and southern iU m Der are up, Rs are wheat flour, In diEn corn and oats, and last, but not least, print cloths. the market for which has bsen so long depressed. Prices for sugar, coffee. lard and pa5rolenm remain unchanged, while pork is almost the only important produce quoted lower than last week.
