For several years my health was

of insanity. consulted one of the
best physicians in New York, and he
pronounced my disease a fbroid tumor,
advising an operation without delay,

and violent medicine, and one said /
was incurable, another told me my
only salvation was galvanic batteries,
which tried, but nothing relieved me.
One day q friend called and begged me
to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. began it's use and took

.Rradstreei.s Reyiew.

New York, Oct. 2i---Bradstreet' to-
day says:
More nearly. perhaps. than ever be-
fore does the volume of general trade
and industry tax existing transporta-
ton facilities handling the same. From
nearly all parts Of the country, but
particularly from the west and south,
come reports of car scarcity. Some of
the congestion seems to be the result
of a diversion OF traffic ordinarily car
ried on by water routes to already
crowded railroads From both coasts
of this country come reports of Insult
ticient tonnage offering to handle goods
seeking a foreign outlet, and freight
rates are considerably higher than they
we're a year ago. This latter feature. in
fact. is one which may have important
effects upon our foreign trade during
the balance of the year.
With a few notable exceptions prices
continue strong. Some weakness In
wheat price is directly traceable TO
higher freight rates because Of the par
tial closing of the door to relief from
growing domestic stocks. II may be
said that while present statistics of
stocks of domestic and European are
! bearish estimates of the years wheat
! crop continue to afford strength to the
bulls position. An average of five
/ leading European estimates points to
a worlds crop this year not far from
! 200. 900. 900 bushels and a falling off OF
4 1926. 600 600 to S750oo.oo0 bushels from last
year is indicated. Corn is not as de-
/ pressed as wheat, mainly because OF
/ lighter receipts.

CONTINUES 1O EXPAND
Business Continues to Show q
Growth in Nearly All Lines
OF Trade.
Prices Are Still Advancing and In
dustries Are Crowded to Their
Fullest Capacity.
Volume Of Business Shows Remark
able Increase Failures Have
Been Very Few.

New York, Oct. Pr. G.. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade today says:
In most lines business continues to
expand. though in some there are signs
that buying has been checked. Prices
are still advancing in almost every line
supported by rising prices of materials
and works everywhere are still crowded
to their utmost capacity, while at many
competent hands. But the volume of
business expressed In values rises much
more than prices, showing a remarkable
increase in quantities of goods ex-
changed.
The outlook of war in South Africa
has brought no such changes as many
checked, but of other great staples and
manufactured products the foreign de-
mand is surprisingly sustained.
Wheat has declined liz cents in price
in spite of unfavorable crop reports and
western receipts do not keep up with
the unprecedented movement OF last
year. corn exports add testimony as
TO foreign needs, having been in three
weeks 10,924.406 bushels, against 1907
039 bushels last year.
Prices of cotton goods have risen so
far that there is some doubt whether
they can be maintained Wool has en-
listed powerful speculative interest
and sales of 1928, 900 pounds for the
week at three central markets repre-
sent about twice the consumption.
While goods for mems wear outside of
worsteds We're not particularly active,
there has been excellent business in
dress goods.
Sales of $4,000 tons of Bessemer pig
iron and a reported demand for 100000
tons of billets in a bare market at
I'ittsburg have made quotations less
Intelligent than usual The western
market is strong and the eastern not
changed. In the minor metals tin is
very dull and declining at S11s cents and
the copper market has been broken,
lake being freely offered II Is cents.
Failures for the week have been 145
in the United States against 22l last
year, and twenty in Canada, against
twenty-four last year.
