THE MONEY MARKET,
Business Among Banks Qafeter, but
Situation Practically Unchanged.

st. Louis. Tuesday. Aug. IA, 1900.
While banking business In general WAS not
quite UP to that OF yesterday it was satisfactory
and a little above the average OF a Tuesday.
Nothing particularly new has developed. the
market being pretty much as 1t has been for
some time past. There was the usual good de-
mand for money on local and country account,
and rates OF interest were steady at 4 to I per
cent in the extremes for call and time loans,
with most transactions based upon 5 to 6 per
cent. especially where well-known and regular
customers were concerned. In a routine way
ing and depositing being. we'll up to the daily
average. and funds at all banks were in good
supply.

There is a young man in Brooklyn
who needs a tonic of some kind, else
he would not have failed to embrace as
attractive an opportunity as ever
comes to one. He accompanied a
charming young woman to n church
wedding on the park slope and arrived
at about the time the bride and groom
were due. The young woman with
him was dressed somewhat as the
bride was expected TO be clad, and as
she walked up the main aisle of the
church with her escort the organist
began to play the wedding march. The
couple, however, instead of going on to
the altar, stopped in one of the pews
not far from the front. One of the
ushers came forward and told them
that the clergyman was waiting for
them, and their friends near perceiv-
ing the situation, urged them to re-
spond to the summons The young
woman said she was ready and will
ing, but the young man, to his ever
lasting disgrace, refused to move, and

A cheap remedy for coughs and
colds is all right, but you want some
thing that will relieve and cure the
more severe and dangerous results of
throat and lung troubles. What shall
you do? Go to warmer and more

not possible for you, then in either
case take the only remedy that has
been introduced in all civilized coun-
