chicaoo's HEAVY Hoo Receipts.

Chicago, Feb. 11.-Receipts of hogs
at the Union Stock yards in Chicago
broke all previous records Monday.
Before noon more than $4,000 head
had been unloaded and more were ar
irving. The highest number previous
ly recorded was on February II. 1895,
when 74,551 were received. The aver
age receipts for Mondays and Wednes-
days, on which days the runs are Gus
tomarily larger than on other days,
are from $4,000 to 10000 head. The
high price of corn is said to be the
cause for the marketing of the animals
in such great numbers. The immedi-
ate effect on the Chicago market was
a break of 10 to Is cents in prices.

Few Suicides In Northwest.

The relatively small number Of So
icides in this city and section, says
Seattle (Wash.) Post-Intelligencer, ID
made the subject of an interesting OBJ
servation by w. F. jenkins, In com.
mand of the Salvation Army in the
Pacific northwest. In consequence Of
the small number of suicides the Sal.
walton Army has not followed its usual
course of establishing anti-suicide
bureaus in this section. Commenting
on the fact, the brigadier said: Here
in the northwest people, when they
get into trouble, keep up courage and
hope and never think Of suicide. For
months, even In these so-called hard
times, and during the Christmas sea-
son, we haven't had a suicide case
come into the office. There is no ques.
ton that the average laboring man
finds life a more satisfactory PROPOSE.
ton out here than he does in the aver
age city of the east" 1t isn't always
an easy matter to tell precisely why
some men and women feel impelled to
kill themselves, In a given set Of cir
cumstances, while other men and
women, In similar and sometimes
worse circumstances, will not even
think Of such thing. But 1t isn't
difficult to understand why suicides
are much less frequent here than in
other sections Of the country. Climate
may have much to do with it. Nerves
do not break as readily here as else
where, though the gait Is usually
speedy and at high tension; the at
mosphere seems to soothe the hurt
places and to strengthen the weak
ones. Moreover, the general view Is
more cheerful. Men and women are
more hopeful, as a rule, and, as Mr..
jenkins suggests, the people are more
friendly, more inclined to console and
help their distressed fellows than they
are in other parts of the country. 1t
Is high tribute to the climate, the
country and the people, but 1t is de-
served. The record is that way, and
the record is the best evidence.

The president Of the association Of
hairdressers OF Paris, who has been
spending four weeks in New York, is
going home in few days, but he will
leave pleasant memory behind him,
because of his remark that II New
York women would only show more in
dividuality in their hairdressing they
would be the most beautiful body of
women the world has ever seen. He
adds that there are 300 separate and
distinct fashions of dressing the hair,
but in New York the women seem to
confine themselves to 20 at the most

Can Any One Place This Quotation
from PhIlosd pher?

colored man, usually in good humor,

he had 'em, but they had 'em Just the
same. They talked Of the weather.

subjects. There was nothing sunny
in the soul Of patron or barber.
Finally both sighed In concert and a
silence fell over the shop-yes, over a
barber shop. The colored man was
the first to speak. After several mo-
ments of silence he gave vent to an
other sigh and said:
"Well, as de old philosopah says:

PURE FOOD.
No Food Commissioner Of Any State
Has Ever Attacked the Absolute
Purity of Grape-Nuts.

Every analysis undertaken shows
this food to be made strictly Of Wheat
and Barley, treated by our processes
to partially transform the starch
parts into form of Sugar, and there
fore much easier to digest.
Our claim that 1t is Food for
Brain and Nerve Centres is based
upon the fact that certain parts Of
Wheat and Barley (Which we use) con-
tain Natures brain and nerve building
ingredients, viz: Phosphate Of Pot.
ash, and the way We prepare the food
makes 1t easy to digest and assimilate
DR.. Geo. w. Carey in his book on
1.-THE Biochemic System of Medicine"
says:
when the medical profession fully
understands the nature and range Of
the phosphate of potassium, insane
asylums will no longer be needed.
"The gray matter Of the brain Is
controlled entirely by the inorganic
cell-salt, potassium phosphate.
This salt unites with albumen, and
by the addition of oxygen creates nerve
fluid, or the gray matter of the brain.
"Of course, there is trace of other
salts and other organic matter in
nerve-fuid, but potassium phosphate
is the chief factor, and has the power
within itself to attract, by its own law
Of affinity, all things needed to manu-
facture the elixir of life. Therefore,
when nervous symptoms arise, due to
the fact that the nerve-fuid has been
exhausted from any cause, the phos-
phate Of potassium is the only true
remedy, because nothing else can
possibly supply the deficiency.
1.-THE ills arising from too rapidly
consuming the gray matter of the
brain cannot be overestimated.
phosphate of Potash, is to my
mind, the most wonderful curative
agent ever discovered by man, and
the blessings it has already conferred
on the race are many. But what
shall the harvest be- when physicians
everywhere fully understand the part
this wonderful salt plays in the
processes of life? 1t will do as much
as can be done through physiology to
make a heaven on earth.
Let the overworked business man
take it and go home good-tempered.
Let the weary wife, nerves unstrung
from attending to sick children or en-
tertaining company, take it and note
how quickly the equilibrium will be
restored and calm and reason assert
her throne. No 'provings' are required
here. We find this potassium salt
largely predominates in nerve-fuid,
and that a deficiency produces we'll
defined symptoms. The beginning and
end of the matter is to supply the
lacking principle, and in molecular
form, exactly as nature furnishes it in
vegetables, fruits and grain. To sup
ply deficiencies-this is the only law
of cure"
Please observe that Phosphate of
Potash is not properly of the drug
shop variety but is best prepared by
"Old Mother Nature" and stored in
the grains ready for use by mankind.
Those who have been helped to better
health by the use of Grape-Nuts are
legion.

Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine
wash goods when new, owe much OF
their attractiveness to the way they
are laundered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau

given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
