Portland Union Stockyards, Stock
dale, Dec. 16.-The complaint made
recently in these reports to the effect
that local livestock buyers did not
give the shippers to this market the
benefit of any nominal rise in prices,
but held back until greater sum was
reached, has been remedled.
During the past "a hours there was
an advance of sc in the price of hogs.
This sent the local market to the
highest point reached during the
present movement, 1856. Two sales
were made In the Stockdale yards at
this figure during the "a hours. One
OF the lots consisted of 65 head and
averaged 244 pounds. while another
lot of 81 head averaged 243 pounds.
These were among the best hogs re-
celVed in the local market during the
present season.

have been obtained for this lot in or

Today's run OF hogs was quite fair,
consisting OF 404 head, but the trade
is taking hold OF everything that
comes and is willing to pay the price.
Demand for both sheep and cattle
is very firm and former high values
are still easily maintained During
the past "a hours as high as S475

The market for cattle would stand

Novel Experiment by Which It May

 A peculiar feature about poslam, the new skin discovery is that no one $ asked to buy it without first sending to the Emergency Laboratories No. 32 West Twenty fifth street, New York City, for an experimental sample and applying same to an affected part of the skin, about the size of a silver dollar. It will clear the spot so treat ed in twenty-four hours-a remarka- ble visual demonstration of it's powers.
 While poslam has been mentioned principally in connection with the cure of eczema, the most stubborn of skin diseases, it must be remembered that when used for itch, hives, pim- pies, b1otches, acne, itching feet, scaly scalp chafing of infants and similar minor skin troubles it's action Is all the more pronounced, results being seen after an overnight application. As only a small quantity of poslam is necessary to cure such cases, special fifty-cent package, usually suf- ficient, has been placed on sale at The Lee & Osgood's and Smiths drug store in Norwich, Larue's in Putnam, Wood wards in Danielson and Chesbro's in Willimantic and other leading drug stores throughout the country. 1
