How Restore Nerve Fore

Every organ of your body is governed by network
or nerve wires These nerves convey the power which
runs the human machine. This power is called
force. Nerve force is nothing but electricity The
reason any organ becomes weak is because the
which control it lack electricity, nerve force the
motive power of your body. This lack of force
is shown by weakness of any kind whether in the som

Eufure Grain and Provisions

CHICAGO,t Oct. 5.-The political trouble in
Europe outuRighed all other influences at the
opening of today's session in the wheat pit and
result initial quotations showed gains of
1sc to %c compared with Saturdays close. An
advance of nearly Id in the price of wheat at
Liverpool seemed to impart additional serious
ness to the war talk and helped to further
strengthen the local market Chief among the
bearish influences was an increase of 1000, 900
bushels in the amount of wheat on passage
Worlds shipments were 13,616.000 bushels. COM
pared with Is. .7S4 900 bushels the correspond
ing week year ago. The market rallied again
near and continued strong to the close.
There active, demand here by millers
for red winter wheat and Minneapolis also re-
ported a good demand for cash grain while
ST. Louis reported sales of %, 600 bushels of
wheat to Texas millers. The market closed
strong near the highest point.
The corn market closed firm, with the excep-
tion of the october delivery, which was steady
Prices at the close were 1sc lower to sake
higher.
The strength of wheat and corn caused mod
crate hrmness in oats early in the day, but the
market weakened later in the session because
prices shade higher TO &c lower.
Provisions were weak all day owing to sell
ing brought out by liberal receipts of live hogs
at western packing centers. The close was on
