Specific Work of the School.
The special work Of the Wyoming
seminary lies in preparation for the
leading colleges, technical and profess
sional schools, United States acade-
mics, and for business life. The bust
ness department is a thorough. elab-
crate and scientific business college,
with the very best of appliances for
instruction. The seminary has been
from the start co-educational. The
history and results of this school, we
believe, prove beyond question that the
plan of educating young people to-
gether is the natural plan that it is
productive of the best results intel
lectually, morally and socially and
therefore Is the better plan.

deprived of its natural supply of blood
This sets up all sorts of functional ir-
regularities so common to people who
spend much time indoors. Peruna
cures these affections by regulating the
supply of blood and giving to each
part of the system exactly that por-
tion Of the blood to whiclH it is en-
titled.
BY producing natural appetite,
correcting digestion and regulating
the supply of blood in the system, Pc
runa removes the cause of a thous
and and one maladies very common in
warm weather.
The fatigue and languor of hot
weather is directly due to impover-
ished blood. This condition prepares
the way for the advent of almost
any disease. Peruna protects the
system against the ailments of sum-
mer by fortifying it with a regular
supply of the best blood.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, July 13.-Today's stock market
was but a dull and unneresting affair and
marked the further relapse from the manipu-
lated rse of the early part of the week which
came into evidence yesterday. Selling to take
profits was the order OF the day and the bears
put out some fresh short lines That neither
of these operations was on very extensive scale
is sufficiently shown by the small figure of the
total sales of the day, and the greater part Of
even these stock dealings took place in the
forenoon when the bull interests were still
making futile efforts to continue the advance.
The pressure Of profit taking which met the
advance when last nights level Of prices was
approached discouraged the attempt and the mar
ket was allowed to lapse into an almost lifeless
state. Small as the offerings were, they were
sufficient to drive prices sharply below last
nights level. The Grangers, and some of the
southern railway stocks were most notably al
feCtcd, but there examples Of weakness
all through the list of railways and spccialtics
The steel stocks became notably weak late in
the day On a growing apprehension that the
general reaction in business will Curtail the
consumptye requirements for iron and steel
whatever the ultimate basis of prices may be.
Total sales 19O,S 500 shares.
The bond market continued dull and the
changes were mixed. The total sales par value
were Sl,535,OO L. S. bonds were unchanged
in bid quotations.
