DAILY STRENGTH AND CHEER.
Compiled by John G.. Quinius.
(The Sunshine Mani

Let us examine our capacities and
gifts. and then put them TO the best
use we may. AS our own view OF life
is of necessity partial, | do not find
that we can do better than to put
them absolutely in Gods hands, and
look to Him for the direction Of our
life-energy. God can do great things
with our lives. If we but give them
to Him in sincerity. lie can make them
useful. uplifting, heroic God never
wastes anything God never forgets
anything. God never loses anything.
AS long as we live we have a work
TO do. We shall never be too old for
it. nor too feeble. Illness. weakness.

can excuse us from this work Of ours.

TO END CATARRHAL
DEAFNESS AND
HEAD NOISFC

If you have Catarrhal Deaf
ness or head noises go to your
druggist and get 1 ounce of
Parmint double strength). and
add to it u pint of hot water
and ounces of granulated
sugar. Take 1 tablespoonful
four times a day.
This will often bring quick
relief from the distressing head
noises. Clogged nostrils should
open, breathing become easy
and the mucus stop dropping
into the throat. It is easy to
prepare, costs little and is
pleasant to take. Any one who
has Catarrhal Deafness or head
noises should give this pre-
scription a trial.

Liquidation in wheat was on a big scale
right from the start Notwithstanding
that most of the unloading appeared to
be of a profit taking character, many
stop loss orders were encountered, espe-
cially after support began 70 dwindle
when the break in prices failed TO stop
at Sl.25 for May. The trade ignored
higher cables and lessening of north
western receipts. but seemed TO be af-
fected by heavy increase OF the world 8
available supply total. There were also
Kansas and Nebraska reports that the
amount of wheat in farmers hands was
the largest on record for this time OF the
year.
Corn reflected the weakness OF wheat.
Besides eastern demand was slow and an
increase OF receipts after the first of the
year was in prospect. Oats followed

the news was not generally known until
after the end of the sessions.
