longer. One enthusiastic claim Is made
to the effect that within the last half
century the average of life has been
extended over ten years and that for II

now II Is close to Ii. Whether this
claim can be proved is doubtful but all

tivities, much to the annoyance of the
Inhabitants thereof. Their usual course
is to seek an interview with the busi-

In the factories and workshops, at
the offices and stores-yes, and in the
homes, too, people are being ground to
death by the monotonous wear and
tear of unceasing toll. Day after day,
week in and week out, il is the same
story of work and labor--of exec sSiVe
toll and struggle, withOu. opportunity
or recreation. In the summer, above
all other times, the burGen is heavy to
bear and many victim falls by the
way overcome by nervous exhaus:i,n n,

1t is useless to talk Of rest in the
cooling breezes of some lake or ocean
resort. The worlds work nus be done
the toiler must toll on. There is one
method of replacing wasted nerve cells
and building up the worn-out system,
and that is by using Dr. A. w. Chase's
Nerve Pills after each meal. They give
vlgor and tone to the system and pre-

befrtend working people by making
them strong and well giving new hone,
new confidence and stronger determin-

stopped and health restored by its use.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York. July 25--The upward reaction in
stocks this morning marked another phase in the
speculation. Such intermittent movements from
day TO day are a familiar incident OF periods
when speculative factors have largely spent their
force and no new ones OF importance are in
sight to take their place. 1t does not necessarily
follow that there are not large speculative COM
mitmcnts still existing in the market. so,ue
further light is evidently awaited on the actual
results to the crops Of the period Of drouth in
the west which was formed together with the
steel strike, the basis OF recent speculation Tor
the fall. Declining activity and lesscning duo
tuations are the natural accompauiments OF such
period. There is the additional consideration
that stocks In the general list which are not
directly concerned at all in the vicissitudcs OF
the crops have suffered IRON depression by
sympathy with those that arr. At the low level
Of prices some of these proved attractive. The
professional traders, anxious to develop new
speculative movement. joined in the buying and
helped TO advance prices. The hituminous coal
carriers, the anthracite group and some uf the
roads in the southern region were prominent in
the leadership OF this movement and helped TO
