Yesterdays Market for Stocks Continued
 Strong

yesterday's Market for Stocks Continued
 Strong.
 New York May n.-To-day's market for stocks continued to be strong and prices to advance all around as long as the London exchange was in session to impart it's buoyancy to the local mar ket. The dealings showed some anima- ton and increased volume and the rise in prices was easy and uninterrupted But the spirit of prices somewhat im- proved during the morning, even with London selling.
 The price of Americans in London have halted somewhat up to this time in spite of the general improvement in that market growing out of the subsid- ence of alarm over the war in the east because London waited for New York to give the cue for an advance. To- day, however, the general tone in Lon don was so strong and the improvement so general that it extended to the Am ericans without waiting for New York in advance.
 The cessation of the days trading in London was followed by the announce ment of a S5OO,OOO gold shipment on Thursday and this was followed by vague rumors that shipments for the week would probably reach a total of $7 ,000, 900. Although gold shipments have been expected and confidently pre- dicted for this week, the bulls lost heart in face of the actual announcement and the whole market sold off with no sub sequent recurrence of decisive strength. As matter of fact, exchange rates eased perceptibly with the offering of bills against the gold shipment and the large purchases of securities by London here, estimated at 15,000 shares of stock and some large blocks of railway bonds.
 The improvement in the price of Kali frs in London to-day is another factor to be considered in the exchange situa- ton as the liquidation of Paris hold ings of these securities on the London market is the reputed cause of the Paris demand on London for gold and, indirectly, of the shipments of gold from New York to Paris. These ele- ments in the situation make the volume of gold to be shipped from here this week still more problematical, with a growing likelihood that they will be less rather than more than was antici- pated. But these considerations did not allay the apprehensions of the traders and they allowed prices to decline.
 As a consequence net changes on the day are generally very narrow, but as A general rule all of the early gain is more than lost with resulting net losses

CArAKKn or THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effeotual
 Cure for It,

Sure lOr H.
 Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to incur able The usual symptoms are full or bloating sensation after eating, accom- panied sometimes with sour or watery risings, formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs, and difficult breathing; headaches, ticlSle appetite, nervousness and a general played out, languid feeling.
 There Is often a foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue, and if the inte- rior of the stomach could be seen it would show a shiny, inflamed condition.
 The cure for this common and obsti- nate trouble Is found in a treatment which causes food to be readily, thor oughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mu- cous surfaces of the stomach. To se- cure a prompt and healthy digestion Is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catiar- rhal condition will have disappeared.
 According to pr. Harlandson the safest and best treatment Is to use af- ter each meal a tablet composed of Diastase, Aseptic Pepsin, a little NuX, Golden Seal and fruit acids. These tab let's can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not being a patent medi- cine can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will follow their regular use after meals.
 MT. N. J. Booher of 2710 Dearborn st., Chicago, Ills, writes: "Catarrh Is lo- cal condition, resulting from a neg lected cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane of the nose becomes inflamed and the poisonous discharge therefrom passing backward into the ducing catarrh of the stomach.
