GUATEMALA VOLCANO VICTIMS.
Tell CurdIIng Tales of the Work Of tho
Burning Mountains.

San Francisco, Nov. 22.-The first OF
the refugees from the devastated lands
of Guatemala arrived on the Pacific
Mail steamer City of Para. They came
from the districts far inland from the
sea and travelled over a country laid
waste by sand, ashes and pumice be-
fore reaching a railway station.
These people fed from their planta-
tions in fear for their lives. They
escaped to the seaside with little more
than the clothing they wore. The
refugees confirm stories of loss OF life.
They say that thousands of Indians
were asphyxiated or buried in the sand.
Miles of plantations are under ashes
and absolute ruin is the lot OF many
planters, whose all was invested.
Bands of Mexican robbers are swarm
ing the desolated regions, robbing and
numbering refugees on the road, and
looting the abandoned and desolate
plantations.

SUBSTITUTION.

Please listen to short talk upon
most vitally important sub1ect-one
which is greatly disturbing the busi-
ness world to-day.
You have doubtless heard OF the
word substitution" You have prob
ably read that substitution Is fraud"
Tack that saying firmly In your mind
and keep It there. 1t Is worth some
thing. 1t is true-almost invariably.
You call at store and ask for an
article of certain brand or manufac-
ture. one which has been thoroughly
advertised for years, and which has
earned an excellent reputation. The
dealer says here's something just as
good for less money" That dealer
thereby usually tells direct false
hood. He knows that the article
which he offers you at lower price
is inferior but the point is that 1t
yields him greater profit; hence his
desire to substitute.
You may ask If an article is superior
just because it is advertised. Yes, 1t
is, and here's why. The many we'll
known houses which spend millions
of dollars every year In the good pub
lications of the country are managed
by men of brains and wide business
experience, and these men know only
too well that unless an article has
merit there is absolutely no business
sense in spending good money to ad-
yertise It, 1t does not pay to 'adver-
tise any article of general use for a
short time only. Every advertiser
must wait some time before his adver-
tising has created the desired impress
sion and while he is waiting his goods
must have time to prove whether or
not they are good. If they are good,
they stick; if not, they do not, and If
they were not good and did not stick,
would this experienced business man
continue to spend good money adver-
tising the goods-throw good money
after bad as it were? Never! He
has too much business sense.
The average article which you see
advertised month after month in good
publications is itself good. Buy an
advertised article. 1t is the true safe
way.
When you are buying ask for what
you want and get what you ask for
Remember Substitution is Fraud"

Mrs. Hildebrandt's piscovery.

Lake Sarah, Mimi, Nov. 24th.-Mrs.
Hildebrandt of this place claims to
have discovered a complete cure for
Rheumatism and numerous people
can testify that as Mrs. Hildebrandt
had the terrible affiiction and is now
a we'll woman, she appears to have
good grounds for her claim. Mrs.
Hildebrandt speaks Of her cure as fol-
lows:
81 had the Rheumatism in my arms
so bad that l could not sleep at night.
l was induced to try Dodd's Kidney
Pills and before l had taken two
boxes | was much better. When |
had taken four boxes was completely
cured"
1t is only fair to state that others
have made the same discovery as
Mrs. Hildebrandt and that for Rheu-
.matism and other diseases arising
from the Kidneys. Dodd's Kidney
Pills are recognized as the one sure
and permanent cure.

Horae Meat Cheaper.

Berlin, Nov. 2l.-Quotations here for
fat 6oO-pound horses for slaughtering
have fallen from S37. so and $40 to S25,

Is Enough Wheat.

Topeka, Nov. 91.-IIerbert Hackney,
of the Topeka Milling Company, be-
lieves the millers can find enough
milling wheat to last them through
the season, although the visible supply
is now becoming very short.
"In the matter of the wheat supply
in Kansas" he said, 'you can always
fipure that there is little more than
the statistics say there is. If they
should say there was an absolute
failure in Kansas, it would probably
take a 1000, 900. bushel elevator to
hold the crop"

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
violent Advances az opening Entirely
Melted Away Before Close.

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-Quite violent ad-
vances at the opening of tOday's stock
market. which were somewhat exceeded by
a rally from a subsequent reaction, entirely
melted away before the close, which was
weak, and at net losses reaching a point for
some OF the leading specula tive stocks.
After the heavy declines OF the last two
days, reassurlns reports this morning as to
the adjustment OF the troubles affecting
some speculative accounts and an absence
of pressure IN the money market, the re-
tuEal of the market to stay upward was
something of a surprise. After so consid-
cradle a reaction, involving the creation as
a matter of course OF a large short Interest,
a rally is to be expected, II only from
technical causes. 1t was the short interest
which caused the opening squirt. The ue-
Velopment OF "a growing demand to borrow
stocks In the loan crowu last night revealed
the growth OF the short interest, and this
morning reports OF large transfers Of
certain stocks at private sale, which served
TO relieve over-extended long interests,
caused a fear among shorts that they were
becoming ovcr-eNtended,
The high level OF pricee at the opening
proved inviting to the traders who have
bought at the decline. 1t became evident
also that the substantial buying which
was a feature yesterday was lost to the
market at the higher range or prices. for
the rest of the Gay, in consequence, there
was a Crumbling process, which ended at
the last with quite a sharp break. There Is
a notable TACT that the heavy transfers OF
various stocks which are going on give rise
to no further rumors OF possible change OF
conditions, such as affected nearly every
prominent stock a few months ago; Never
theless, as is obvious Tor the selling for
stocks that is going on, there was nc ac-
tual news development OF Importance 10 ac-
