Wise selection of food will help any one. The healthy people can keep well and those who are i'll can obtain sure benefit by the steady use of Grape-Nuts.
 A lady says, ITO say that Grape-Nuts Food has been help to me Is putting it very mild indeed. For seven years I was an invalid suffering from extreme nerv- ousness and weak, tired. exhausted feel ing. I was compelled to lie down several times each day and the least exercise exhausted me. I was also unable to sleep at nights.
 I read many times of the remarkable results from the use of Grape-Nuts Food and finally decided to try 1t.
 I ate Grape-Nuts three times day in then twice a day, and have realized a wonderful benefit I have grown strong and almost entirely well. Can do all my own work. and seldom have to lie down until I go to bed at night. then I enjoy restful sleep.
 I do not become fatigued as I used to and am able to study more in my line of work (music). My brain does not get weary as 1t used to. My stomach is strong and can and do eat three hearty meals day.
 We would hardly know what to do without Grape-Nuts for the house. The children often say Mamma, make a great big bidding this time They en- joy the fodd as they would candy'' Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

DuN,s REVIEW.

New York. July 1S.-R. G. Dunn & Go. s weekly review of trade tomororw will say:
 Settlements of numerous labor contro- versies and prospect of early agree ments as to other struggles have greatly improved the industrial outlook while agricultural conditions steadily improve As these have been the only unfavorable influences for some months the prospects for active trade are decidedly enoour- aging. Preparations for unusually heavy fall sales are being made and confidence grows stronger. Mills and furnaces that have been idle on account of the usual overhauling. resumed as rapidly as need ed repairs could be made. Financial con- ditions are sound. the mid-year dividend distributions producing no stringency and speculations has been heavy for the sea- son. both in securities and staples.
 Pig iron continues to command full prices, supplies falling below require ments and furnace deliveries failing ,to fill contracts. Scarcity of fuel is still the principal drawback while car and mo- tive power shortage are additional causes of delay. New orders are reported for distant delivery, running about a year ahead Prices are fully maintained for the raw material. but billets weakened slightly because of foreign selling. Im- portations have reached a considerable aggregate and more are expected. Struct-

$4,ooo,ooo BOND ISSUE.
Arrangements Made for Completing
 Railroad In China.

New York. July 1S.--It Is learned from an authoritative source. says the Jour nal of Commerce. that tentative arrange ments have been made for placing the s4,000,000 In bonds which the American China Development Company has been authorized to issue by imperial decree of the Chinese government
 These bonds are for the purpose of completing the railroad between Hankow and Canton. It will be matter of sev- eral months before the bonds can be engraved and ready for delivery and it is hardly considered proD,~ble that the transaction involving their sale will be fore, little indication of any active phy- sical work in the completion of the new road under the direct stimulus of the bond issue.
 It cannot be learned whether the entire issue of bonds will be taken in this coun- will be invited. It Is considered prob able, however, that the issue will have an International character, as the board of directors of the American China Develop ment Company has foreign members. The necessary funds with which to begin the practical work of building the first section of the road were subscribed by the stockholders some months ago and were deposited with J. P. Morgan & Company.
 The new bonds are a gold Issue bear ing interest at the rate Of per cent and running for fifty years.

uraI material is still the feature, new business being offered in great bulk
 Railway needs don't diminish despite the enormous amount of work already placed, and agricultural mpIement-mal- CTS arc fully employed. 4 general ad- vance in prices Of machine tools has oc- cured, averaging nearly ten per cent. Manufacturers of cotton goods hold prices steady and there has been a distinct in- crease in demand the past week, al- though buying is only for imperative re- qntrements. the disposition to delay pur- chases being still evident. No concessions are offered by holders, indicating the well-sold current condition and confidence as to the future. Some curtailment of spinning is reported at southern mills, the tendency being to wait until new cot ton comes forward. Export trade in- creased through buying of lightweight woolens. and worsteds have opened at unchanged prices, and the increased &C., tivity of mills have aroused more Inter- est In the raw material, which tends to advance. Eastern shoe shops receive more orders, some of the larger producers re- fusing contracts calling for delivery be- fore October. Prices are firmly held.
 Crop prospects have continued favor able, and with the removal of the specu- latlve influence there was a gradual de- cline in prices.
 Cotton rules steady. the outlook for a liberal yield being balanced by the strong statistical position.
 Failures for the week number 213 in the United States against 193 last year and 20 Tn Canada against 32 last year.

ENGLISH MANUFACTURER
Arrested Charged With Making False
 Invoices on Imported Goods.

New York. July 18.-Ernest L. Fleming. an English manufacturer of washing crys- tals. who recently came to this country to inquire into the tariff on his products, has been arrested charged with endeavor- Ing to enter into this country imported merchandise by means of fraudulent and false invoices.
 He was taken before Commissioner Al- exander and was held in s20o0 bail which was furnished at once. In the complaint he is charged with having shipped to this country from Liverpool by the Cevic, on May IA fifty bags which purported to contain washing crystals not concen- trated. It is alleged. however. that thirty of these bags contained three tops of borax, instead of washing crystals. While sal soda, or washing crystals. pays a duty of one-fifth of a cent pound. borax pays duty of five cents pound.
 MT. Fleming says he mad no intention what ever of defrauding this government and that he came to Washington to get accurate information from the Treasury Department.
