that his free advice is "
likely to do you more
good than that of physician who charges
high prices.
DR.. Pierce is also the head of the famed
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at
Buffalo, N. Y, where hundreds of invalids
and afflicted persons from all over the
country go for treatment by the corps of
specialists who are in constant attendance.
1t is because OF his vast practice that the
doctor is so we'll fitted to successfully treat
every form of disease. Do not feel that
you are imposing upon him when you ask
for free advice, because he wishes all to
know that his medicines only arc to be
paid for--not his advice.
"I have used three bottles of Dr. Pierce's

in wheat had evidently absorbed some
hope during the night. This was ap-
parent when the market opened. They
had in mind the fact that the market
had declined lie from the top and hence
might be ready for a reaction. The
main influence at first, however, was
the unexpected steadiness of Liverpool
in face of the 5A decline here yester
day.
me market showed only fraction
a. loss and during the first trading
9ours regained some of that. 1t was
also reported that Liverpool shipping
bids were nearly on a parity with
American prices. August wheat open
ed 12c to 1850 lower at 1875 to 79Ac,
and shortly afterward sold to 1850
On profit taking August reacted to
1872, which proved to be the bottom
price for the day. There were more
rains in the northwest, but reports
from that section said the three days
precipitation of moisture, although
heavy, had come too late. Complaints
that the crop in North Dakota and
Minnesota was almost a complete fail
ure were numerous. From Chilli came
the report that rains had prevented
sowing, rendering a small crop next
season inevitable. This sort of news
sent the shorts to cover. Their buy
ing, coupled with some outside demand
and support from influential local
bulls caused a rally which carried Au-
gust to S03sc. The bulge met the US
ual profit taking and the market drop
ped from the top to 79B7@914c, but
the close was strong, August 4 a sc
up at 793sib79Ac. Seaboard elearances
in wheat and -four were equal TO 460,-
600 bushels. Primary receipts aggre-
gated $4,000 bushels. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported SO cars against 1913
last week. Local receipts were 14S
cars, seven of contract grade
Corn gave an exhibition OF strength
and activity which was partly due to
wheat, but principally to its own con-
dition. Hot weather in Kansas and
Nebraska and an excellent cash de-
mand were important links in the bull
chain. Liverpool was higher for flu
trues, but depressed on spots. Re-
ceipts were 1,161 cars. The outside de-
mand was excellent and the covering
of shorts on liberal scale August
sold between 42A and 43a4c, closing
@1Ac up at Ash G43Ac.
Oats were a bit easy following a firm
opening, but turned upward later in
the day, helped by corn and wheat,
