Weather and wages continue the only
seriously disturbing factor in the business
situation. Excessive moisture and low
temperature made the crop outlook more
uncertain and much depends on a continu-
arcc of prosperity in the agricultural sec
lions. Work was suspended in the an
1hracite coal mines on Monday and al
though the interruption may be terminated
at any time it involves vast array OF

others closely allied. The loss In wages

New York, May 1G. Bradstreets will say
tomorrow:
Conditions governing trade lack uniform
ity and explain irregularity in advices from
different sections. The prominent feature
is of course the favorable character of
nearly all crop advises (winter wheat ex-
cepted) hut even here the Improvement
since May LIST has neutralized much that
was unfavorable before. 7 he shadow over
hanging eastern trade in the shape of a
general anthracite coal strike has deep
cned with the formal suspension of work
and the strike announcement. Cold wealth
.r hitherto has retarded retail demand and
IN the agricultural sections the population
mas been busily engaged Hence present
demand has suffered in comparison with
the outlook for the future but recorder
business from iobbers has been very fair
despite this. The industrials outlook aside
from the anthracite trouble and the posi-
biities of this disturbance if extended in
rolving some branches of the iron and
steel trades. is on the whole no more UNI
settled than might he expected in a time
of more than ordinary prosperity.
Notable strength is still shown in prices
g.! MANY staples. particularly those in
which speculation is not very prominent.
The cereals are still strong despite good
crop reports.
Lumber is active the country over and
the same is true OF nearly all kinds Of
i'Iiding materials including light and

We also endeavored. after the example

Again, in the same address, these wise
old fathers Of the Republic OF Vermont,
said:

being thus constantly reminded of thr pol
itical mortality be induced to act well
their parts while on the stage.

The Windham county case of Jason W..

SCROFULA.

To cure Scrofula take
SCOTS Emulsion.
Scrofula may be described as
-" scattered consumption"
1t is consumption Of the
small glands under the skin,
and these break out into the
sores. SCOTS Emulsion heals
these sores.
But there's more to the
story. The loss of flesh and
great weakness that comes
with Scrofula is regular part
Of the disease-thc same as in
consumption of the lungs.
For this as for the sores,
SCOTS Emulsion is just the
remedy.
Flesh and strength are
gained by the use of SCOTS
Emulsion quicker than in any
other way.
Scrofulous children improve
in every way on SCOTS Emul-
sion.
