EUROPEAN SITUATION ADDS
UNCERTAIN TONE TO WHEAT
SOME LOCAL FARMERS SELL At

ARE HOLDING.

There is an uncertain tone in the
local wheat market today as a resul,
OF the sudden rise in prices resulting
from Austria's declaration of wal
against servia but It is sure that the
farmer can get more for his grain
today than he could yesterday. The
fact that the prices in Liverpool as
well as in Chicago have scared since
the declaration find an echo in this
country.
Last evening local buyers were
busy bidding on unsold crops and sew
eral big lots changed hands at prices
as high "a 73 cents. Today, however,
there is not any great movement
Many Of the farmers are waiting for
further developments in the hopes
that the prices will soar still higher
Some are inclined to believe that the
increase results only from a furry
and are willing to let go while the
market is high.
Several Of the grainmen here frank
ly admit that there Is no market
price today the furry having made
buying and selling a matter of spec
ulatlon. However, good lots will still
bring in the neIghborhood of "
cents.

To be sure, these beverages are

chemically and in it's physiological
effect with caffeine, the active prin-

BEVERAGES FOR CHILDREN

While it is generally understood
that tea and coffee have no place in
the diet Of the child, since they are
stimulants and thus injurious to the
nervous system, many people think
that cocoa and chocolate may be
given children in any quantities with
out harm. Both chocolate and cocoa
contain fat in varying quantities and
either starch or sugar is added to
cocoa in manufacture, therefore they
have a certain food value, mostly due

MAXWELL IN MOVIES

A Maxwell movie mar was driving
one Of the Maxwell cars down Michi-
gan avenue, Chicago, with a friend,
one afternoon in July, and as they
passed the Logan Monument, in Grant
Park, opposite Ninth street, a traffic
officer held them for a moment.
The friend remarked: mot many
years ago an officer stopped the first
motor a ever seen here, right at
this spot. He arrested the driver, and
a fine was imposed for endangering
human life and fostering a mob. To-
day a driver could drive right up to
Mr.. Logan, up there on the monument
and get away with it, If there was a
car made that has the power and sta
bility to stand the bumps"
That gave the Maxwell man a jolt
in his pride, and he retorted: Meet
me here at $50 tomorrow morning
and III take you up there and down
again in this car"
Not If l know it you won't take me
up there, but I'll bet you a dinner, and
the fine If you are pinched, that you
cannot take the car up there"
Early the next morning the Max
well nan called at the studio of the
Essanay Film Company and their star
camera operator got into the car At
$50 they we're at the monument and
the camera set up. An exceptionally
clear picture resulted, and will be
shown, together with a hundred other
equally interesting scenes at the
opera house on October 10Th. There
will be no admission, complimentary
tickets being obtainable at the local
Maxwell dealers.
Don't fail to see this wonderful pro-
d%uction. It is just as interesting as II
is educational. Lots Of life and a
