WHY WOMEN
SUFFER FROM
NERVOUSNESS
One Result Of a Form Of Debility
That May Be Remedied by
a Course Of the Tonic
Treatment.

Many women suffer from nervous
ness, accompanied by loss OF weight and
pallor, showing that there is loss of
nutrition and that the blood is becom-
ing deficient in quantity or quality.
This is condition that may be follow
Ell by serious consequences unless cor
mcted To cure it the falling nutrition
must be arrested, the patients weight
and strength built up and the blood re-
stored to its normal condition
The one remedy that has cured this
condition, strengthened the digestion,
toned up the nerves aud made the blood
pure and rich is that described by Mrs
K. P Taylor, of Oakland, kans. She
says:

STOCK SPECULATION
IN NEW YORK
Hundreds of People Are Interested in
This and Closely Follow
the Markets.

NEW YORK, March 24-When the
New York papers published the story
the other day OF W. ]. Roman, the
eighteen year old office boy of Jas.
r. Keene, horseman and broker, clean
ing up $4,000 in stock speculation,
there were many who looked upon
the boy as a prodigy, peculiar de-
velopment of modern society.
But to those who know just how
big a hold the stock ticker has on
the people of New York, Romans sue.
cess was not surprising, since 1t was
learned that he based most of his
speculations OH information picked up
in Keene's office. Keene is one OF the
shrewdest brokers the street ever
knew.
Romans case simply emphasizes
the fact that stock speculation In
New York is not confined to accredit
ed brokers or the members of the
various exchanges. In no other city
in the world is the market playing
game so prevalent as here and il the
books of Wall street houses could be
opened to the public they would dis
close patrons in all the ranks from
ministers to bar-keepers, staid wild
ows to chorus girls millionaire club
men 10 street sweepers AID daughters
on rich allowances to women of the
kitchen
This statement is not exaggerated
in the least. It is nothing at all un-
usual in this city TO hear scam
stresses, maids. governesses, walters,
coachmen. buffers, clerks, stenograph.
ers. day laborers, policemen and, in
fact the entire rank and file OF the
so-called army of those of modest
means talk OF stocks as glibly as
though they were a partner of !.
Pierpont Morgan. They inquire ner-
ivously What did the market do to-
+ day." How's the U. S. Steel? Did In
iterboro Met. continue to go up?"
! They seize the evening papers and
eagerly scan the market pages, pages
that to the poor people or almost
amy other city would be so much
Greek They read the columns OF
fractional figures and know right
away whether they have made a
weeks wages without turning hand
or whether they have got to retrench
/ to meet their market losses.
The New Yorker learns what Mop,
Frs, and other hieroglyphics of the
ticker means almost as soon as he
learns his A, B, C's. and puts and
calls, selling short and long, bnllins

parted along with such information
as that Columbus discovered America
and that nine times nine is 81. The
hammer. the scythe and the machine
used to be emblems depicting labor
but the New York boy at some stage
in his development, looks upon the
ticker as the one sign of business
career.
1t goes without saying that these
thousands of pikers play the market
on margin and on very narrow mar
gin at that, which means that they
are likely to be wiped out at any mo
ment by slight slump or advance IN
the market.
So far as known there are no sta
tistics on the subject, but it would
probably be safe bet that OF the
thousands of papers read by home go
ing New Workers in the evening
hours, nine-tenths of them are open
ed 10 the market page.
