CHICAGO LETTER.

WHEAT scored an advance of pa
under the formidable array of bullish
news although there was not a large
general public trade there was some
expansion in business and general in
terest Foreign markets all higher
and it was claimed that practically all
the wheat offered abroad last night
was accepted There We're reiteration
OF claims of disaster to the Canadian
crop. Claims were made that the ex-
port sales today aggregated 100 loads.
responsible firms confirming seventy
loads, but most exporters claim that
tOday's advance has shut out much
business although Europe had previ-
ously been disposed to follow advances
ia ocean freights, cash premiums and
market advances. Cash sales $4,000.
CORN scored a good advance mainly
on frost predictions for Nebraska the
northwest and the northern part of
Iowa and Wisconsin. Shorts covered
and there was much miscellaneous in
vestment The advance has shut of
export and eastern shipping business.
but competition between elevators and
local industrials advanced cash corn
. cents in sample market cash sales
125.000-seaboard none.
OATS were subject TO much the same
influences as other grains. Yesterdays
important buying was reinforced by
further buying today, emphasizing the
stringency in the market which des-
pite the increased activity was a small
one. Cash sales 100000. Eastern ship
pers baked al the bulge
Further liquidation of October con-
tract shippers put pressure on January
product. Offset by new investment
buying of January. Some covering by
shorts and some buying OF October
product by the packers who sold
distant months. Grain strength helped
the market.

that there will be a reduction in the

for more than about half of the present

The lack Of speculative interest in
the security list and the glut in the
market for high class bond issues can
not yet be explained by corresponding
falling OF in business activities or cor
pSration earnings and for this reason

at sea, except 10 the extent OF claim

The news this morning was rather
depressing for the speculative element
and the opinion prevailed that stocks
would go lower, and quite a number of
selling orders were in evidence at the
opening. but it soon developed that
some one who is in a better position to
see the Improvement was buying stocks,
especially Union Pacific, and with this
issue the entire list sympathized after
a while. and gains of one to three per
cent scored before the day was over.
From general observation and fol-
lowing the progress of the western
railroads. I notice that Chicago. NIL
waukee & St. Paul building the extern
sion to the Coast, in face OF reduced
net earnings, and q much higher cost
for railroad building than ever before
in the history of railroad building, the
returns from new investments will be
almost iii for years 10 some, and com
pairing such with the results of roads
supposed 10 run parallel like Northern
Pacific. we think Northern Pacific rev
issue will sell higher than ST Paul and
we think it is a very good proposition
to buy this New Northern Pacific stock
and Sell St. Paul.

NEW USE FOR BUTTE Prevents Boiling Over

Coffee frequently produces bi -ss and all of the accompanying distress. such as loss of appetite. dyspepsia. bowel troubles, etc A lady from Illinois says: "I had used coffee many years, and though l took great care in making 1t. felt it's i'll effects very seriously. It made ms bilious and robbed me of my appe- tie for breakfast.
 T always had trouble with dyspepsia while l used it. 1 was told by physicians that l had catarrh of the stomach. and came to believe there was no help for me Two years ago I quit the use of coffee and began to use Postum Food Coffee. At first | missed the stmuant. although the taste of the food coffee was delicious.
 "In few days l forgot all about my coffee. in the satisfaction I derived from Postum and soon found that my appetite returned. the bilious condition and dys- pepsia disappeared so that now I am proud to say that at the age of 75 years l enjoy my food as well as when young and all my dyspeptie symptoms and stomach trouble have gone.
 These troubles had been with me for most of my life and 1t is really remark q that I am now SO perfectly well. To say that am grateful does not express 1t. Once in a while I find a person who does not like Postum, but I always find 1t is because lt has not been properly prepared. There Is but one way to make good Postum and that Is to make 1t exactly according to directions, allowing 1t to boil full fifteen minutes. not after 1t Is placed on the stove, but after the real boiling begins. Use small piece of butter. about the size of a pea, to prevent boiling over" Read '"rhe Road to wellville,' in pkgs. "There's a Rea- sop
