CHICAGO GRAIN

Chicago. April l0.-Violent breaks in
place today largely as the result Of
forceful call for government control Of
foodstuffs. but before the day was at
an end there had been a big rebound
in prices owing in great measure, to
the stubborn maintenance of new high
price record values on hogs. At the
point of the scvcrest depression wheat
was off 5hs cents: corn 5 cents and
pork $l.55. Wheat closed unsettled at
$2.O6a4 M2O7 for May and $l.S2h q
l.s2aa for July, with the market as a
whole ranging from cents decline to
4 cent advance, compared with yes
terday's finish. Corn closed ~ cent

to u cent and provisions at Il setback

Aside from renewed corn strength
F, derived from the hog market the alb
scnce Of rain in Kansas and Nebraska
was bullish factor in the later wheat
trading. Much Of the buying that
brought about a recovery in corn
prices was credited to the scaboard.

For Itching Torture

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to stop itching torture and relieve skin
irritation and that makes the skin soft,
clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pin-
piles, rashes, blackheads, in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, $1.00. It will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins

CHIROPRACTORS ARE ROBBERS-WHY?
THEY ROB YOU OF YOUR ACHES AND PAINS
THEN WHY BE SICK?
THEN WHY BE SICK?

Chropractic is truly the most comon-sense method
of dealing with diseased conditions This is the day
of the advanced progressive idea.
Chropractic is based upon a knowledge of the
structure and function of the human body, especial
ly that of the BRAIN vertebral column spinal cord
and the nerves eminating therefrom.
Chiropractors are successfully removing the
of Stomach Bowel, Liver and Kidney troubles;
Rheumatism troubles of the Head, Throat Lungs
and other organs. Both acute and chronic cases
yield readily to Chiropractc. Call and investigate
this wonderful science. It's pleasure to tell you
about it.
You need not leave your business but look
after it and take adjustments in the evening at
any convenient hour during the day. Call to see me
while you may and thus prolong your life and en-
Joy the blessings of health.
Ninety-fVe per cent of humanity die forty years
too soon and all on account of not having the dis
placements in their spinal column reduced. You
would never have aches pains or experience sick
days if your nerves were free to act and the only
way these nerves can be released from deadly pres
sure is by unique hand adjustment
