Ie is frequent guest at the midday din

He is frequent guest at the midday din- ing clubs and appears to be taking a
 lively interest in the market, although de- nying that he Is in the game or has any concern in price fluctuations beyond what legitimately appertains to his fixed in vestments. Remembering Mir Carnegie s off repeated assertion that .t is sin for man to die inordinately rich the wide awake brokers are spreading their nets for him in the laudable hope that they may be called upon to aid him in tho distribution Of his surplus assets. If
 they are only fortunate enough to induce the canny millionaire to open a few accounts they take 1t for granted that he will die poorer than he Is at the present time.

Market Values Increase.

Rough estimate places the increased market value of securities dealt in on the New York stock exchange at about $2, 5O0000,0G0, this Improvement having taken place within period of about seven months. The rise in some securities has been phenomenal. There are instances where stocks have enjoyed l gain of more than one hundred points. The improve mont has been most conspiclous in some of the higher priced properties such as Lackawanna, Northwestern Omaha Delaware and Hudson and Great North ern. The floating supply of the strictly investment stocks Is becoming smale- every day and speculation is perforce turning into the lower priced speculative Issues.

Comparatively very few of these immigrants have found their way into the farming sections. excepting the swedes and Norwegians who drift natur- ally to the more northerly states In the southwest ground for self congratu- lation is found in the absence of the for eign element in the invading army of homeseekers.

Missouri Valley people hav
found a cure for itching skin
diseases.
They tell about it. Read
what this citizen says:
j. H. Wilkinson, foreman in
the round house, living on
Michigan street, says:
'Doan's Ointment is a Won
derful remedy. For years
itching hemorrhoids commonly
called piles gave me untold
annoyance. No one but those
driven to evaporation by this
tormenting affliction has the
faintest idea what a sufferer
endules, and when a remedy is
at last procured which does it's
work thoroughly and promptly
the sufferer is only too pleased
to let his friends know and ac-
quaintances know the means
employed so that they may pro-
fit by his experience. 1t is to
be remembered that | tried
remedy after remedy all guar
anteed to be sure cures for
piles but none Of them brought
any permanent relief or | never
would have been forced to 20
to G. S. Osborne's drug store
for Doan's Ointment. The
first application soothed. l
continued the treatment great
ly encouraged AMI in a short
time the tormenting aff1iction
disappeared"
