Tendency Of the Times.

The tendency Of medical science Is TO-
ward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given to
the subject. 1t is easier and better to
prevent than to cure. 1t has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia. one OF
the most dangerous diseases that medi-
cal men have to contend with. can be
prevented by the use of Ch,mberlain's
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia is always
results from cold or from an attach Of
influenza grip. and 1t has been Obser-
we'd that this remedy counteracts any
tendency Of these diseases toward pneu-
monia. This has been fully proven in
many thousands of cases in which this
remedy has been used during the great
prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years. and can be relied upon with i'm
plicit confidence. Pneumonia Oft re-
suits from a slight cold when no danger
10 apprehended until 1t Is suddenly dis
covered that there Is fever aud difficulty
In breathing and pains in the chest,
then it is announced that. the patient
has pneumonia. Be on the safe side
and take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
- soon as the cold is contracted. 1t al =
ways cures. For sale by T. j. Liable.

CHICAGO, March 3O.-The grain
markets ruled firm today, May wheat
leading with a net gain of q q &c. Nav
corn closed Il a &c up and May oats
q &c improved. Provisions staggered
early under a heavy run of hogs, but
closed steady with the May products
unchanged to sc higher.
SeaSOnable weather was reflected in
the opening trades in wheat Nav be-
ing sc to Is a 4 C lower at 721ac to
T2Ac@I23sc. The market quickly
stiffened, however. on comparativeIy
firm cables and prospects of a liberal
decrease in the visible st. Louis lead
ing an active buying movement. Later
1urther impetus toward higher prices
was given by the large export clear
ances, confirmation of early expecta-
t1ons of the visible decrease and open
buying by an influential house. Nav
touched 73$8 @7312c during the after
noon and closed firm, q q &c over Sat
urday at I3Ac. Strong Southwestern
markets, small receipts and a decrease
IN the quantity afioat were minor fac
tors in the strength.
Primary receipts We're 646 900 BUSH
els, compared with 575, 900 bushels last
year. Local receipts We're IL cars,
none of contract grade. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported 4S7 cars, making
a total for the three points of 49S cars
against 419 last week and 47O a year
ago. Seaboard clearances in wheat and
flour were equal to 506,000 bushels
Worlds shipments were SIP, 600 bush
els. The amount on passage decreased
1,176,000 bushels. The visible showed
a decrease Of 1.764,00O bushels.
Corn Bulls Have the Better of 1t.
With the news on both the bear and
Dull sides of about equal weight, the
wheat strength was sufficient to give
%
the argument. On one side were small
receipts and large cIearances; on the
other slack cash and export demand
favorable weather for the movement
and lower cables. Trade was quiet and
general in character. May sold be-
tween 43Ac (early) and 43Bc, closing
a q &c up at 43Ac. Receipts We're 81
cars.
Complaints of wet weather in Iowa
and Illinois, and the wheat strength
Influenced the oats market in a sharp
advance. Covering short contracts
formed the chief part Of the buying,
which at no time was conspicuous. At
the top there was some liquidation, but
not sufficient to cause more than a
slight check. The cash demand was
fair May sold between 327s 033e and
34c and closed q @1c higher at 337sc.
July was quiet but firm. Local re-
ceipts were $50 cars.
PROVISIONS were quiet. The market
opened weak on heavy hog receipts,
but recovered, shorts covering in SYM
pathy with wheat. May pork closed

Money Very Much In Demand in London
Discounts Easy

wanted in the market today, supplies
We're restricted and rates We're firm; con-
siderable sums were owing to the Bank
stock exchange trading was irregular and
there was little doing beyond the settle
ment transactions; consols were easier
Slightly firmer; Americans were irregu-
lar and mostly a fraction above parity
Southern Pacific was weak; Atchisons
and Union Pacific were the good spots;
prices closed steady; Grand Trunk eased
at first on the February statement, but
recovered later; Kaffirs hardened
The amount of bullion taken into the

912c for the account; exchange on London

Berlin-Discount rates, short bills for
settlement. Az per cent; three months
bills, rs per cent. !.
