Worked Like Magic
RED, scALY ECZEMA YIELDS TO
SAxO SALVE.

A Highland. N. Y, woman writes:
Since 1901 suffered from eczema
and my skin was very tender, red
and really, and could find no relief
until used Saxo Salve. The first
application worked like magic, in less
than week the scales were gone
and now the skin Is healed and
smooth, thanks to Saxo salve.
In all forms of eczema, and ali 9th
er crusted or scaly humors and erup-
lions, Saxo Salve has given astonish-
ingly good results. The great inn
provement that it makes in the first
few days shows plainly tnat you can
place full trust in its curative power
We have 30 much confidence in it
that we give back your money II you
are not satisfied with Saxo Salve.

DATES WILL BE SET
FOR BIG SERIES
Worlds Series Dates Will Be Fixed
by National Commission Today
Giants Almost Sure.

fUnited Press Leased Wire Service ]
NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-Despite the
fact that the Giants have not yet
cinched the National League pennant,
the national commission In session
here today was expected to select
the dates for the worlds champion
ship series. By winning two games
of the remaining eleven, McGraw's
men will be able to land, even if Chi
cago should win all remaining games.
October will probably be the open
ing date for the big series.
Discussion was expected on the
method of handling tickets. Garry
Hermann and President Lynch want
the commission TO assume charge of
the ticket sale. President Johnson
said he wished each league to handle
it's own sales. It was said McAleer
boss of the Red sox, had already pre-,
pared to handle his own tickets, and
that Johnson would back him W
against the national commission.
Another big problem was the ar
rangement of the schedule. There
has been sentiment against the play
ing of games in the two cities on al
ternate days. Players have objected
to the daily trip between towns. The
fans like this arrangement. It was
thought probable that the daily shift
would be adopted.

This mornings Hawkeye gives the
information that George Manusch,

release by Egan and is now free
agent. He will spend the winter in
Burlington.
When Burlington comes to Keokuk
next Saturday the Keokuk athletes
will find themselves facing hard
problem to solve if the reports from
Burlington can be depended upon
Coach Campbell Is sparing no effort
to have his men in the pink Of condi
ton and evidently does not believe
the reports of Keokuk's weakened
condition. The B. H. S. men are
being given hard practice every even
ing and will have something on the
local bunch, for with three men out
of the game and poor line OF sub
stitutes, the coaches are afraid tc
take chance on having any more Of
the regulars crippled.

CASH DEMAND
CAUSES RALLY
Depressed Conditions Over
turned-Wheat Closes
Higher

Chicago. August I2-Decrease in the Wis
ible supply of wheat, together with a
strong cash demand, brought a late rally,
overturning depressed conditions today.
The market was steady at the close from
a shade to Aaase higher. Final trading
left corn shade to 7s@1c up; oats, A@
sc down to A@sse higher. and provisions
varying from unchanged to rise of sc.
Attempts to accelerate the movement of
wheat, which slowly is getting in transit.
brought a sharp demand from elevators
and shippers and made the cash mar
ket exceptionally strong. A decrease of
$4,000 bushels in the visible supply
brought down the domestic insight to 49,
100000, compared with 100000 last year.
Comparatively strong northwest markets
also helped to Offset generally bearish
conditions. Primary receipts were large
and cash sales aggregated $1,000 bushels.
December ranged from 91s4c to 92%e, with
last sales A@ssc higher at 929sc.
Favorable weather prospects throughout
the corn belt. with early ears ripening.
and later planting filling we'll. failed to
dull the strong demand today for the
grain. The September option felt the
greatest force of the raise and showed
stronger than the cash variety, climbing
1sc above Saturdays close.
September longs relinquished much
grain. The close was steady at nearly the
top figures. December ranged between
54ssc and 547sc, while September fiuetuated
from 6sisc to 69s4c.
September oats dragged the market, al
though the net decrease was not large. De-
cember closed 1s0asc higher at 32A432ssc,
while final figures for September We're h@
NC lower at 3lssc.
Firmness in the provisions market was
disturbed by packers sales, when high
spots were reached. Higher prices on live
hogs also checked bearish pressure. In
the end prices averaged from 2lso to &c
higher than Saturdays close, october
pork finishing unchanged to ST.. 921a.
Future quotations were as follows:
