A Human Barometer.

When the blood becomes impreg-
mated with rheumatic (lactic) acid,
it Is influenced very largely by
changing atmospheric conditions,
every variation of the temperature
Producing more or less effect on the
system. The changes which pre-
cede damp or cold weather are es-
pecially noticeable, hence the BODY
when it becomes rheumatic can
reasonably be hkened 10 a barome-
ter. IL Is customary among per-
sons who are victims OF chronic
rheumatism to apply external rem
edies whenever the spasms appear,
but to make no effort at a perma-
nent cure. There Is no reason WHY
the body should be afflicted with
rheumatism any more than any
other disease. rheumatism is en-
tirely durable il the right remedy is
used. In upwards of half a century
OF constant use LALLEMANDs's SPE-
CIFTC for rheumatism and Neural
gia has shown conclusively that il
is the very best remedy for the dis
ease. Ii not only gives quick re-
lief, but it strikes directly at the
root of the trouble-the Tactic acid
in the blood, rap idly destroying and
Graduating it. When the rheumat-
&c acid Is once thoroughly removed
from the system the disease is cur
ed, hence the paroxysms cannot

BANK STATEMENT.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York, March 6.-ro-day's stock
market was again almost wholly in the
hands of the professional element. The
course of prices were rather irregular,
and fluctuations were quite wide in many
shares. but the result of the days trading
left prices about where they started, net
decline of travail proportions being regis
tered at the close. Prices tended down
ward at the opening, the tone being re-
fiected from the London market where
Americans shored in the depression which
oveTshadowed all values.
There was a cessation of the selling
movement in the last half hour of the
days trading, and a movement TO cover
over Sunday by the shorts developed. The
bank statement was accepted as favora-
BILE, with the increase shown in the
amount OF loans or $4.452, 600, indicating
an increased demand for money for mer
camille purposes. Under these favOring
circumstances prices stiffened throughout
the entire list Omaha, for instance,
regained the earlier loss. The closing was
steady and the average Of the net losses
was trivial.
The net result of the weeks trading
showed an Improvement in the market
and higher level for prices, though
the gains Of the early portion Of the
week have not all bee maintained.
The general market came under the
influence Of a reactionary tendency on
Tuesday which continued to the end of
the week This was partly due to the
fact that the traders had looked with
confidence to Inauguration day as one
of high prices and they expected to take
prots The trust paragraph in the Presi-
dents inaugural address also depressed
the price of the induetrials.
A feautre Of the week was q fall in the
price of silver from 645s cents an ounce
to G37A cents The fall is attributed to
the act Of Japan in adopting a ratio of
auguration of the gWd standard.
The bond market during the week was
characterized by marked activity and
strength, which was mainly reflected in
the hih priced mortgages. The dealings
included an unusually large number Of
issues with the standard properties well
represented. The glut of money, together
with the favorable outlook benerally,
is influencing a brisk demand fer prime
securities by institutions and individuals
capitalists.
The government bond market displayed
aggressive strength throughout on active
dealings. The improvements were re-
stricted to slight fractions, with invest
ment purchases the sustaining influence.
The sales were S637 600.

There Ii always more or less SUSPICION
attached to anything that Is offered Tree
hxt sonatimes a man so oyernoWs Wltn
generosity that he cannot rest untii mas
aikcoverv Ia known to the world, In order
that bis fellow men may proht by What
he has discovered. 1t is upon TINS prin-
espel that resident or kalamazoo,

areacription which will cure them OF any
sorul of nervous debility; relieves them
~ All the doubt and uncertainty which
zueh men are peculiarly liable to and
restores the organs to natural size and
wIxor. AS 1t costs nothing to try the
axueriment it would seem that any man,
muffereng with the nervous troubles that
usuaIly attack men who never stopped to
rsaliza what might be the final result,
auobt to be deeply interested In a remedy
which will restore them 20 health,
strength and vigor, without which they
continue to live and existence Of untold
ssjsery. AS the remedy in question was
the result of many years research as to
shat combination would be peculiarly
effective in restoring to men the strength
.bey need, it would seem that all men
scattering with any form Of nervous weak
aess ought to write for such q remedy
at once. A request to 81. G. Odds, Box

are not sending for the prescription our
81 idle curiosity, but that you wish to
sake use of the medicine by giving 1t
trial, viii be answered promptly and
without evidence as to where inforn1a-
zion came from.
The prescription is sent free and al
though some may wonder how Mr.. Olds
can afford to give away his discovery,
there is no doubt about the offer being
genuine. Cut this out and send to Mr..
