The Great Show Will be Here To-Mor-
row.
Millions of people have been delighted
and instructed by witnessing the won
derful exhibition of wild west life CIV
en- under the direction of Colonel Will
liam F. Code and Nate Salisbury. Col
onel Cody is better known as Buffalo
Bill" name that is now a household
word throughout Christendom. "Buffa-
to Bill" represents in propri perso-
ma the romance and reality alike of
the troublous times Of pioneer days,
when the borders of civilization were
being slowly, surely, but under enor-
nous difficulties and dangers, extended
westward.
In this great Wild West Show the
scout and the hunter, the emigrant and
pioneer, the pony express rider and the
cowboy follow in their natural Sc.
quence, each picturing his daily expe-
riences in the days when railroads did
not hourly thread their way across the
plains. The daily conflicts, the attack
and the repulse, are all reproduced with
vivid and startling realism.

NEW YORK MARKETS.

Cuthbert & Co. say: THE failure of
the foreign markets to respond to our
steadiness of Saturday was primary
cause of the further decline yesterday
in wheat. The better tone of the clos
ing cables, and the visible supply in
this country shaving a decrease for the
woke of 2,125,OoO bushels of wheat; l.
$4,000 corn and $4,000 oats, however,
led to better feeling, and the market
rallied, and closed steady at the open
ing prices, but l to Us cent below yes
terday's closing. Corn was easier in
sympathy with wheat, and declined on
large sales by shippers, and elevator
people and country operators. Pork
sold off on the big hog receipts and low
er prices at the yards, and selling by
packers

nature pay the price, and it is yours.
Where Is the young man to-day who
has less chance to rise in the world
than Elihu Burritt, apprenticed to a
blacksmith in whose shop he had to
work at the forge all the daylight and
often by candle light. While the rich
boy and the idler We're yawning and
getting their eyes open, young Burritt
a Connecticut youth, had seized the OPP
portunity and improved it. He obeyed
natures laws, and made the most of
what nature had done for him in most
remarkable way.
AT the age of thirty years he was the
greatest linguist in the world. Probab-
ly there is no exception to this state
ment. He perfectly understood seven
languages, every important one In
Europe, and was studying those of
Asia. The case of Burritt is similar to
thousands of others.

ton, Franklin, Cabot, Whitney, Bona
part, Fulton, Jefferson, jackson, Morse,
Lincoln, Grant, Field, Harrison, Bryan,

all have under-varied circumstances,

more wholes ONE,
more beautiful, more completely pleasing
than wonlanly woman? Such woman
is even tempered, intelligent, strong and

story. Health means strong nerves and
strong body, and they go far toward
bringing good looks and amiability.
A woman worn and wearied by the
dragging weaknesses peculiar to her sex,
cannot be expected to find zest in any
duty or amusement. Life is all one dead
monotonous gloom to her On her face
is written the story of weakness and pain.
The wholesomeness of health is lacking
The cheeks lack fullness, the eyes lack
sparkle, the hair lacks luster.
Doctors have learned to locate nine
tenths of wonanly sickness in the organs
that ought above all others to be strong

Sensitive women shudder at the
thought of consulting a physician on
such matters. A natural feeling of mod
esty makes them dread the examination,
and subsequent stereotyped treatment by
local applications ON which most
doctors insist.
