The following analysis of the New York
Ket situation was received yesterday
- noon by W. B. Hibbs & Co.. from
New York correspondent:
he decision was reached TODAY by
the bill for the issuance of a g.
1900. 1-2 per cent bond Issue re-
ly discussed be introduced in the
se on Thursday. This viii lcarry a
Of S.osoooo.oo to the allies and a
issue for 1900. 100000 to meet ap-
fmately one ham OF this colntry's
'A expenses to June 30, 1913 The con-
sidsration Of plans for raising 81, TO =
100000 additional funds by taxation has
not yet reached the final stage. owing to
NE many points at issue involved for
the imposition of the tax. where it
could be placed eQuitably.
1T is pointed In the latest Washing
tc' advices that the most essential thing
e accomplished now Is to float the
Of 5000 Ooo0o0 to be made to the
d governments so they may be as
ID quick relief for much-needed supplies
oodstuffs and munitions. Therefore
Ways and Means Committee. having
q ancial scheme in charge, Is leav-
ing the tax measures for consideration
after these two loans have been rushed
through the House as soon as possible.
There was q further resumption Of
liquidation Of speculative accounts In
stocks in anticipation Of these heavy
loans absorbing attention Of investors
and banking interests throughout the
country.
1T is not believed that any fresh bull
movement in the general stock market
win be encouraged in the meantime pot
vi hstanding the assurance receiver to-
d. from Washington that most OF the
fifteen per cent increased freight rates
requested by the railroads will be grant,
ed shortly. The Indications, therefore
pc Mt to some further liquidation OF
speculative accounts with the probability
that this pressure and the reduced buy
ing power caused by the consideration Of
the war will result in q somewhat low
Ige Of prices"

Died of Premature
Old Age!
(BY V. n. PIERCE, N. d.

How many times we hear Of compare
lively young persons passing away when
they should have lived to be 20 or so
years of age. This fatal work is usually
attributed to the kidneys, ne, when the
kidneys degenerate, it causes auto-in-
toxication. The more injurious the poisons
passing thru the kidneys, the quicker
will those noble organs be degenerated,
and the sooner they decay.
To prevent premature old age and
promote long life, tighten the work OF
the kidneys by drinking plenty of pure
water all day long, and occasionally TAX
ing little Anuric before meals. This
can be obtained at almost any drug store,
Anuric will overcome such conditions as
rheumatism, dropsical swellings, cold en-
tremitics, scalding and burning urine and
sleeplessness due to constant arising.

eral years, and after being left
alone, stayed with some of the
children. She had been with her

she died for about 7 week. She
was the mother of IL children,
six of whom preceded her, and six

who knew her. She was afflicted

memory was gone yet she knew
the people mostly that came to
see her and was glad to see peo-
pie she always knew.
