An OverMorked Brain.
FROM The Record. Piercetou. Iu1

Determined to rise in his chosen pro-

ambitious, his mind was always on his
work. From early morn until late at
night he continually pored over his
books.

Few persons, even with the strongest
constitutions, can keep up under such
a strain.
In addition to his studies, Mr.. KEN
per was teaching a school some three
miles from his home. Finally, his ex-
cessive study and the exposure Of go
ing to and from his school in all kinds
of weather undermined his health.
He was taken to his bed with pneu-
monia, and his overworked brain al
most collapsed. For several weeks he
was seriously i'll.

condition. He was sent to Colorado
where he spent three months without
receiving any benefit. Then a noted
specialist from Cleveland treated him
without avail, n then a hospital in
Chicago was tried. but all absolutely
without benefit. Finally his physician
recommended DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People, and from the first box
he began to improve. When he had
taken nine boxes he was completely
cured. This famous blood and nerve
medicine had accomplished what all his
former expensive treatment failed to
accomplish. Mr.. Kemper says his ca
tarrh has entirely left him;'he is strong
again and weighs nine pounds more
than he ever did. He gives the pills
the entire credit. He is teaching again
and feels abundantly able to continue
the work. To prove hat the above is
true in every respect, Mr.. Kemper made
an affidavit as follows:

MARk FITS.


Chicago. July 19.-The urgency of the
demand for the cash article and the early
strensth developed by corn started wheat
firm. First trades for September delivery
were at from 61ssc to 67ssc. whereas II
closed yesterday at 67hd67Lc. Calls for
the day were at from 67ssc to 67ssc. so
that the sellers yesterday afternoon of
those privileges were at once made anx-
ious.
Another encouraging feature was the
fact that while the receipts of new wheat
were Increased" there was demand
enough TO absorb IL all. Bradstreet's report
a decrease of S,74s. 900 bushels In the
worlds visible supply. 4.526. 900 bushels de-
crease from last year., and that was sup
posed to be the cause for a considerable
rise in prices that started about the mid
die of the session. Later, however. II was
found that those who, by the heaviness
of their purchases, contributed largely
to the advance, were Influenced by the re-
ported damage by heat to spring wheat in
the Northwest. As a result of this Sep
TENDER wheat, that had been ~listless and
fearfully dull all forenoon at about 6TS4
671ac. became strong and active and rose
to 67tsG67&c. Prices sagged a trire near
!. the close on profit-tsking.
September closed lac higher at 6sS1
6slac. December gained lhc, closing at
6sIzc.
Corn had two phases, a bull one early
on hish temperature and a dry weather
report, and a bear one later on predic-
tions of general showers. The opening
was at SsG1ac advance on good covering
by belated shorts who had stayed out un-
til their position assumed a very dismal
outlook. The market did not get beyond
the opening quotations, however. as
heavy realizing by scattered holders
checked the upward tendency. Prices ruled
steady at the advance until the thunder
storms and cooler weather were predicted
and the crowd lost no time In getting out
short lines. September broke sharply and
left off 1sdAc over.
A rood cash demand held oats steady
despite the slump In corn. The close was
unchanged.
Provisions had a strong start on the
good demand and higher hog prices. Pack
ers were liberal sellers and loaded the
market every time a buyer showed him
self. Yellow fever rumors weakened this
close. Pork declined 15c and lard and ribs
7hdl0c each.

A Tricky Thief.

Great Falls, July 1s.-Thomas Che
shire was tried this afternoon in Judge
Burleigh's court for petit larceny. The
officers claimed that he arrived in the
city a few days ago, and inc that
time has been around town buying
drinks and making a good fellow of
himself in other ways. Last night he
was observed to have a habit of falling
up against other people a little more
frequently thar was required by his
condition, n in consequence they
watched him. Early this morning they
saw him go up to one William Brown,
who was sitting in the beer hall. Che
shire pretended TO shake him up as If
10 wake him. but at the same time he
slipped his hand into Browns pocket
and distracted some silver. For this
he was arrested. At the trial to-day
he was found guilty and sentenced to
25 days in the county jail.
