MARKET REVIEWS.

Chicago February 12.-Substantial
advances took place in the leading
futures in wheat this week, May clos
ing with a net gain Of 212@25sc, while
July advanced 1850 The market was
not without periods of weakness, but
in the main was strong, and at times,
very active, especially toward the lat
ter part of the week Saturday and
Monday there was a pronounced bear
ish disposition among traders. Weak
cables and favorable reports from the
Argentine, India and Australian crops
caused small declines. On Tuesday
the market was helped by the best de-
mand for export that has been report
ed in some time. Urgent demand from
many of tn pricipal milling centres
was also reported, and the continued
heavy northwest receipts gave the
market a dropping tendency. AT first
the remarkable cash situation started
a general buying movement late IN the
day which finally became scramble
to cover and a sharp advance resulted.
There was reaction on Wednesday
on realizing and outside selling, but
on Tuesday the market became very
strong and remained 50 throughout
Friday. Reports that the Letter inter
ests were making contracts for the
moving by rail of large part of their
wheat to the seaboard, and that part
of it was for direct shipment to Liv-
erpool, advanced prices rapidly, the
market taking on at times some de-
gree Of excitement under the urgent
demand. Strong Liverpool cables,
small stocks at that market and the
fact that Argentine shipments fell
short of expectations added to the
strength of the general situation.

the same hour each day, walks at about the same gait and the same dis
 tance daily attending to his business affairs. goes to bed at the same hour each night and on retiring leaves the watch in his wanstcoat, hung over chair Thus for the same number Of hours each day the watch rests in the same position. Give this same time piece to a nervous, eXcitable person, who runs for and jumps off cars, whose habit is to wind his watch on retiring, and who retires at all hours, and the result would be very different. It has also been noticed that watches vary more or less, as the case may be, be- tween Saturday and Monday than in an equal length of time during the week, for the reason that the average man is less active between Saturday and Monday than on other days Of course, this applies chiefly to the fine ly adjusted watches.
 With the improvement in watches generally the cost of production has also been materially reduced, so that to-day a gold watch is practically WltIlIl lHG IGdCll OL etll 1SoNd duetS ' jewellers sell a much handsomer and heater open-face woman's gold watch for $25 than could be bought few years ago for $40. The woman's chro- nograph watch sells for $50, but in the richly decorated and jeweled women S watches the prices range anywhere from $75 to $1,000 and upward. The same Is true of the chronographs o1 timing watches. You can now buy g
 mans handsome single chronograph marking fifths of a second, in an IS.

 cases of all these are of the same higf standard 1S-carat gold, the prices be. ing governed entirely by the equipmen and finish of the movement.

ABOUT CHRoNoGRAPH WATCHES
And Their Use by Nurses, Doctors
 and Horsemen.
(From the New York Sun.

(From the New York Sun.
 The properly equipped trained nurse, whether at the seat of war wearing the badge of the Red Cross, or waiting upon the afflicted at home, carries chronograph watch; not the large, split-second timing piece asso- ciated with the sports of the turf and field, but a handsome little single chronograph, cased like other gold watches designed for women's use. These watches are especially made to enable trained nurses to take accu- rately the pulse of their patients. The moment the pulse has been taken the large sweep second hand can be in stantly stopped by a slight pressure upon the stem of the watch; if there is a f1uctuation in the pulse, the second hand can be thrown quickly back to the starting point and the pulse taken over again without in any way inter- fering with the other mechanism of the watch. So much depends upon accurate knowledge of the pulse that these chronographs are an invaluable auxiliary in the work of the sick-room. While these watches are an entirely recent idea, many physicians and sur- geons carry regular chronographs for the same purpose The watches for nurses sell at $50; those for physicians range from s1oO upward
 While ordinary watches have been l made for several centuries, the timing watch and it's rapid development to its l present high state of perfection are 1 the product of our own time. The l first timing watch was made some 4C or 50 years ago. It was not designed I for timing horse races or other sports { for it was called a Surgeons pulse
 which proves that one of the present uses of the watch by physicians is re. ally going back to first principles. This original watch was very crude affair It simply had large second hand that made a circuit of the dial every min 1 ute, jumping a second at a time, ant there was no way of stopping or other wise controlling it. The subsequen development of the split-second chro
 nograph and it's use in horse racinf and other sports have since caused timing watches to be associated nor
 with horse racing than any other sin
 gle interest They are now about a
 near perfection as can be attained b, human skill and ingenuity The fac should not be lost sight of that a watcl is, after all, merely piece of mech
 anism and, like any other machine, great deal depends on it's handling / highly adjusted watch is an excellen
 indicator of the character of the wear CT, particularly as regards his dail, habits, for, while one watch may rul
 within a second a day with one mar it may vary many seconds with an
 other A customer the other da
 brought his watch to a famous Nev
 York jeweler and told him that in tn
 previous six months it had gained jus
 nine seconds; in the next three month
 it lost two seconds; so that in the min
 months 1t had varied just seven sec
 onds. Of course, this was really
 phenomenal case, but it demonstrate
 what very superior watch has don
 under the most favorable circum
 stances The owner of this watch a very methodical man, with dispos , tuality itself, winds up his watch 2
