PAINE'S CELERY COMPOUND.
Best Authorities in Medicine Declare Il the
Only True Spring Remedy.

The sleeplessness, nervous pros

functional irregularities and de-
spondency from which thousands
of women, young and old, suffer,
can be quickly removed by proper
ly feeding the nerves and replacing
the unhealthy blood by a fresher
and more highly vitalized fluid.
The happy change from ill-health
and misery, to true womanhoOd
and happiness, can only be effected
by the use of Paine's Celery Com
pound.
The present spring demand for
Paine's Celery Compound, womanS
friend and life giver, is enormous
in every State of the Union. This
fact alone, amply proves that the
great Compound possesses virtues

PEA VINE HAY.

The Caller learns that carload
of wild pea vine hay was received
in town last week by Mr.. bruce
Evans, who had Mr.. Isom Thomas
to cut and bale it for him near
Banquete, where the pea vine
hourished this year, nearly taking
the country. Some people call it a
weed, but whether it is or not, it is
all right for feed for stock. Near
Kings siding, between Banquete
and Alice, large quantities of the
pea vine have been cut and baled.
Further up the country, toward
Hebbronville, on the red soil, there
is what is called the tallow weed,
which has covered the prairies in
that section, coming ahead of the
grass and fattening the stock, the
stock taking to it readily. Capt. B.
L. Crouch. who for years lived at
Pearsall, received some samples of
it here this week. 1t certainly makes
the cattle fat for the early spring
market.-Corpus Christi Caller.

THE New York Sun has thrown
a bombshell into the camp of its
own party, by its recent triple
loaded editorial attacking President
Rooseyelt's policies. 1t is more and
more evident that Roosevelt will
have his own party to fight in his
own state Of New York, to get the
nomination. Yet it is generally
conceded that he will be the NOM
inee, and, in that event, it is
believed the democrats will carry
New York. 1t is claimed, however,
by many prominent republican
forecasters that he can be elected
without that state. Whether so or
not remains to be seen.

TREND OF TRADE
Reported Daily by Edwards Wood s Co.,
Room II, Hunt Building.

Minneapolis, Oct. 22.-Wheat: A rath-
er quite trade, market acted pretty much
the same as yesterday. Good support
was lacking at times and was taken adj
vantage of to sell. Primary receipts
continue to show the normal shortage
and while it is not generally regarded as
a feature in the market, we believe it
will eventually result in sharp ad-
vance. Stocks of wheat in Minneapolis
for five days have decreased over 100000
bushels. Exporters were busy yester-
day, all points reporting a total of Go
loads worked. Some good sales of No.
l northern and No. red winter sold
for immediate shipment. Interior mills
continue good buyers, Minneapolis ship
ping l25 cars out to them in a single
day. The better foreign demand is de-
cidedly encouraging and leads to the
conclusion that the recent heavy ship
ments from Russia and the adjoining
countries has relieved these sections OF
the bulk of their surplus wheat and
from now on better demand for Ameri
can wheat is looked for. The market
has covered narrow range today with
prices a little bit heavy. However, we
are. inclined to think that the reaction
would favor purchases again on very
slight recession below the present level.
