to do, it puts the whole system out Of

one-part of the body Is likely to run
into all parts of the body. When
children stand q row of bricks on end,
they knock the whole row down by
upsetting one brick. That is exactly
what happens to the health when the
bowels fail to perform their proper
function. Constipation makes trou-
BILE all along the line-puts the liver
out of order, is bad for the kidneys
bad for the stomach. 1t holds in the
body poisonous matter, and because it
cannot 20 any place else, it gets into
the blood. The blood carries it all
over the system. That makes slugg-
ishness, lassitude, bad breath and foul
taste in the mouth, fills the stomach
with gas and causes. windy belching,
stops of digestion ia the stomach,
causes sour stomach, heartburn and
headache. You can avoid all such
trouble, for DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pei

.BRADSTREET'S ON BUSINESS.
Retail Trade Conditions Favorable
---IrOn Industries Bright,
OUR ARGENTINE COMPETITION.

New York, March 20, 20,--Bradstreet's
trade review says Favorable reports
as TO retail distribution and as TO col
lections come from southern, western
and northwestern markets, due TO bet
ter weather Continued good railroad
returns, record-breaking merchandise
exports from New York, with signs of
a resumption Of heavy shipments of
Iron to Europe and good wheat and
fruit crop reports, except from tho
central west, are also features.
An unfavorable element is the pre-
dlctlon of general strike OF machin-
lists, but II Is possible that more than
Its proper weight has been given this
threatened trouble, AS offsets TO this
threatened trouble might be cited the
settlements of differences among the
lake ore handlers, vital point in the
immense business looked FOR the COM
ing spring and summer. Advances In
wages of soft coal miners, OF stove
moulders and Of other workers allied
to the iron and steel industry would
seem TO point TO labor conditions re-
tanning most Of the favorable features
which have made them subjects of
favorable remark.
Foreign demand seems likely to play
most important part in the iron and
steel industries, judging from the re-
ports Of advancing foreign markets
and Of increasing inquiries upon man
ufacturers.
Foundry irons, ore Of low grade, are
cheaper, but finished products note lit
tie, II any, change,
Sugar Is higher, mainly owing to the
growing strength Of raw material
Wheat and corn, among the bread
stuffs, have been weaker, rejecting
another one Of those short swings in
price which have been such u feature
Of the former market, but also expect
ed heavy shipments from the Argen-
tine and good crop reports from the
south and west. In the central west
wheat crop advices are disappointing,
complaint OF winter killing more than
cffsettiDg increased acreage.
Advtces so far received would point
to the retail trade opening WE'LL par
ticularly in the south, the northwest
and the central west, except at the

ditions have operated as deterrent,
