years and will beswell remembered by
old citizens. We didn't aspire to much
then.
There were few brick buildings in
town, the sidewalks were uneven and
unpaved and but dimly lighted by a
few scattered oil lamps, but the people
where prosperous, happy, contented
and wide awake, enjoying life perhaps
more than they do now. Business
conditions were not so strenuous, COM
petition was not so keen, trusts and
combines were unknown, the margin
of profits was broader, and the mer-
chants life was far eaiser and less
anxious one than it is now.

mented with. For her peculiar and deli
cate ailments only medicines of known
composition and which contain no alco-
hol, narcotics, or other harmful or habit
forming drugs should be employed. Such
a medicine is DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scriptiCn-a remedy with a record OfeOver
forty years Of cures to recommend it;
remedy, the makers of which print its
formula on every bottle-wrapper and at
test it's completeness and correctness
under oath; a remedy devised and adapted
to woman's delicate constitution by an
educated phySician-an experienced Spe-
cialfst in woman's diseases; a remedy,
every Ingredient of which has received
the written endorsement of the most emil
nent medical writers of all the several
schools of practice for the cure of wOman's
peculiar diseases; Il remedy which has
more bOnd-ttde cures to its credit than
any other sold by druggists for wOman's
special requirements. 1t is not given
away in the form of utrial bottles to be
experimental with, but is sold at fair
price by all dealers in medicines.
If a woman has bearing down, or drag
ging pains, low down in the abdomen, or
pelviS, backache, frequent headaches,
dizzy or fainting spells, is nervous and
easily startled, has gnawing feeling in
or spots before her eyes, has melancholia,
or "blues," or a weakening disagreeable
drain from pelvic organs, she can make
no mistake by reSortng to the use of DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t will
invigorate and tone up the whole system
ar1 especially the pelvic organs.
No woman suffering from any of the
above symptoms can afford to accept any
secret nostrum or medicine of unknown
composition, as substitute for a medi
cine like DR.. Pie1 ce'S Favorite Prescrip
ton, which is OF KNOWN COMPOSITION and
has record of over forty years and sells
more largely to-day than ever before. Its
makers withhold no secrets from their
patients, believing open publicity to be
the very best guaranty of merit.
DR.. Pierce invites all suffering women
to consult him by letter free of charge.
All letters OF consultation are held as
sacredly confidential and an answer is re-
turned in plain scaled envelope. Address.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

Nothing of consequence resulted from the
meeting today of the stock exchange. The
character of the trading as we'll as the vol
ume did not show any change in the gen.
eral situation. There was no more market
for the railway securities then has been the
case and no change of Importance was
made in the figures.
The new per cent bonds of the Capital
Traction Company sold on about the same
level as that of Saturday, namely. 107. and
also eighth of point below, with broken
lots going at quarter Of a point less. The
quantity of this security on the market for
sale is evidently greater than the demand,
but IL is generally supposed a recovery will
take place as soon as the bonds now COM
ing on the market have been placed.
There was nothing that indicated any
new phase of the gas situation in the
trading that took place today. There was
no demand for the stock apparently out
side of those who have been the buyers
right along and that was brought out when
the stock was offered at CAS-. The bid was
6412. At the close the asking price was
withdrawn and 10 substituted for 1t.
Eighty-three shares were offered at 6ot2,
but the best bid Gig Another large
lot, namely, 100 shares, was for sale, and
the price asked 80. but there was no
bid for 1t.
1t looked as if there was no stock at
and fractionaly below Go, but no effort was
made to explore the higher levels with the
view of finding out how much stock might
still be lodged there.
1t was stated in the course Of the cur
rent talk of the street as OF some signl1-
canoe that Mr.. John r. Mclean. the presb
dent of the gas company, had arranged 70
go abroad, and that he was to leave TINS
