friends who have cast his horoscope
for the first time, have warned him
that he faces two physical dangers,
Cardinal Gibbons, who will be so
years old next Tuesday, only laughs
at the fears of these superstitious per-
sons. The first OF the dangers that lie
in wait for the cardinal is a shock
or a fall his friends say the second
a severe cold on the lungs.

CHICAGO, Aug 1.-The excessive
insurance rates on wheat for Euro

options here. Opening figures We're
very weak at a loss of 1-2c to

advance at Liverpool.
The local trade has lost the snap

principal incentive to sell.

At the same time exporters made
the statement that they were there

believe that conditions will be modi-

There was a further sharp advance
in the price of wheat abroad for the
