tile stroke. The ready success of the
bears in depressing prices led them oc-
casionally to take profits. These spas

achieved without effecting any marked
change in the general level of prices
and the upward course soon resulted
in an almost stagnant condition.
There would be a squirt at activity

ceased when the bears ceased in set

majority of the dealings was at level

in point of activity, was also under
very heavy pressure and declined at
one time three points below last nights

We find around US everywhere men who
are young in years, but who in body are
actually old and decrepit. This premature
Old age is becoming more common every
year. Thousands are continually dying who
are scarcely 80 years of age, from Il complete
worn out state of their systems, just as
literally of old age as though they had lived
to be 100. and the cause of This is due to
general demoraiZcd condition of the great
vital organs of the body - the stomach, the
liver, the kidneys and the blood; let any OF
these become impaired and the blood instead
Of flowing through the body and carryins
nourishment to all its parts, becomes filed
with poisonous secrctions which generate and
multiply continually, cnlsing to build up
new flesh tissue, So that gradual wasting
and decay takes place until the day comes
when q complete collapse is experienced and
speedy death engues.
The Indian is noted for his longevity due
to the fact that he takes no medicine that
contains poisonous ingredients. but depends
upon his famous Kiclsapoo Indian Sagwa
