A FRIENDLY GROCER.
Dropped a Valuable Hint About coffs


For about eight years. writes a

ousness-part of the time down In bed

have severe bilious attacks, and my
heart would tiutter painfully when l

Il have taken enough medicine to
start a small drug store, without any
benefit. One evening our grocer was
asking husband how | was and he
urged that | quit coffee and use
Postum, SO he brought home a pkg.

work without the least sign of my old

THE STOCK MARKET
MALLEST DEALINGS SINCE LAST

Much of the Business Was Transacted h the First Hour After which the .. Activity Dwindled to

New York. June zg.-Small as was the aggregate transactions in today's stock mar kst the figure falling Co the lowest since summer, the narrownsss ana lorpidlty of the market are but inadequateiy coneeiyed from that. Reading and Union taeific absorb ed large preponderance Of the total deal- ihxs. moreover iAucn of the business was trfnsacted in the first hour. after which the activity dwindled to a point or idleness
 There was an exodus or brokers to the race track to witness a favorite racing event. During the afternoon the record of transaetions ran down to few feet of tape rom the ticker TOT each hour With q shsnt demonstration m UnIon Pacific dur ing the first hour which carried 1t up over point.
 This constituted whatever stay there was to the market. the conduct of the Reading directors yesterday in aoJourning without acting on the ulvidend for most ot the ianguid discussion or the day. off ciai lntimations that the regular dividend would be paid in August did not prevent a revival of assertions of possible increase m the dividend rate.
 The adJoui nnlent yesterday was alleged to be due to the contention of a minority for an Increase in the dividend rate. As the surplus reserves of the banks stood on last saturday at t4l54.o25, the sub-treasury practically exhaust them. The New York money market Is still receiving a balance of receiAts on the ineerior currency move- ment; but this item Is believed to make a small offset to the above showing.

 Foreign exchange in this market was well sustained at the gold exports An unfavor- aole impression on the holders of copper curities was caused by admissions of the prospect Of a reduction in the price of copper to break the deadlock now existing between buyers and sellers in the trade.
 The statement by the Iron Age of weak conditions In the iron market and the steel markets Is a minor factor in the heavy and lethargic tone of the speculation.
 Favorable weather for the growing crops was reported and the market had nothing to contend with from that side The only explanation of the Union Pacific advance was the report of stock market pool in that stock. The advance was lost during the day and the last prices of the day showed small declines in the majority.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales par val ue s762.00o United States bonds were un- changed on call.
