Prof. Hertzoe Praises
 This Perfect Laxative
pR. cALDWELL'S SYRUP PEPSlN
 AN IDEAL REMEDY FOR CONSTIPATION.

In every family there is more or less occasion for a laxative remery. It is to meet this need that Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin is prepared, and that this combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin fulfilis its purpose is proven by its place in thousands of American homes.
 Prof. F. J. C. Hertzog, the well known linguist, 2341 North Orianna St., Phila- delphia, Pa, wrote to Dr. Caldwell that he has used Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pep sin in his household with excellent re- suits and that he and his family con slider it indeed friend in need, and al- ways keep a bottle of it on hand.
 Constipation is the direct cause of much serious illness and is a condition that should never be neglected. Harsh cathartics and violent purgatives should never be employed to relieve constipation, because the very violence of their action shocks the entire sys- tenn. A mild laxative, such as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far prefer able, being mild and gentle in its ac- tion, without gripping or other pain or discomfort; its freedom from all opiate or narcotic drugs makes it an ideal remedy for children.

CHICAGO GRAINS

CHICAGO, Nov. 2S.-Railroad em- bargoes and marine perils that threat en to bring to a standstill shipments of grain led to a semi-panic in the wheat market today Exciting breaks in values, as much, at one time, as 135s a bushel, were followed by par tial rallies. The close, nevertheless, was wild at 1.66 to 1.671a for Decem- Der and 1.74ls to l75 for May, with the market as a whole five to seven below yesterdays finish. Other lead ing staples. too. all showed setback corn ? to 2A at 27k oats 21z to Sc and provisions 10 to 90.
 In the last hour the fall in prices became of an extraordinary character The fact that buying orders seemed almost to have vanished brought trad CTS to sudden realization of what was virtual embargo on railroad transport of grain to the seaboard One after another, of late, the railway lines have been giving notice that temporarily grain shipments could  not be accepted. Today this proceed ed to such an extent that nearly all roads east from Chicago were shown to be involved in a general congestion.
 In the last thirty minutes the wheat crowd threw holdings on the market with a reckless energy that seldom has been equalled.
 Prices fiuctuated as much as four cents at time. and the pit was near k bedlam. Wheat was in some cas- es as low as 1.3Sl9.
 Restrictions on shipping affected corn and oats equally with wheat. but the liquidation did not draw out the half frenzied eagerness shown in wheat.
 Provisions gave way chiefly owing to weakness in the hog market. Arri- vals of hogs throughout the west were greatly in excess of the number of the corresponding day year ago.
