WHEAT PRICES IN
A SHARP ADVANCE

Chicago, April 24.-scarcity. Of Of
ferings here, together with signs Of
liberal export buying at Winnipeg and
Of a renewal of active domestic mill
ing demand did a good deal today to
bring about sharply higher prices for
wheat. After a rise that In some
cases reached &C a bushel. the market
closed strong at gains Of 8 to 8 3-4s
net, with May at $2.40 to $2.40 3-4.
and July at $2.06 @2.0e 1-2. Other
commodities, too, scored an advance
corn 2 7-Sc to &c: oats 7-S to 2 1-2-
@6-8c, and, provisions 20 to 36c.
Millers took all the choice wheat
that could be had here. and 1t was
said that stocks in other centers were
likewise being materially reduced.
This fact alone seemed to be more
than an offset for indefinite peace
mors. Notwithstanding the brisk upy
turn In prices the volume Of business
continued as on yesterday to be much
smaller than had been the rule for
some time before.
Corn followed in the main the ac-
ton of wheat. Export demand helped
to lift oats.
Strength in provisions was ascrlbed
chiefly to the advance Of cereals.
Lard and. ribs were in special demand.

Won Kissing WAS
HAUNTED BY GHOST
OF NURSE CAVELL

London. April 26.-The Berne cor
respondent Of The Observer teie-
graphs as follows:
"a fortnight ago I met a dinloma+.
list Just returned from Brussels. In
conversation the murder Of Edith Ca
vel! was mentioned. Won Kissing
said the diplomatist, had never been
the same ma since Miss CavelTs
murder. He could not sleep and was
a wreck. He imagined her
ghost was haunting him, and once he
exclaimed. Il state before God
tnat vas not responsible for her ex-
ecution."'"
An Exchange telegram from The
Hague says hat the German press
comments at length on the death Of
General o Kissing. The Beriiner
Tageblatt says:
w are not permitted by the cen
sor to pass judgment on his work an
Governor Of Belgium, but we can sav
that most Of the measures taken IN
DER his governorship created a. world
wide sensation and aroused a world /.
wide protest. They were not taken Nv
MIN. but In spite of his efforts to pre-
vent them" 0
This Is an indirect reference to the
putting to death Of Edith Cavell, over
which General Won Kissing rendered
his resignation to the kaiser. as he
personally disapproved Of her execu-
ton and ais to the deportation of
Belgian workmen. Both of these
were ordered from the kais-

FRENCH SHOW
MUCH COURAGE
No Lack Of Willingness to Work
for Victory Has Been Found
in France. Report.

Paris. April 25.-Correspondence OF
the Associated Press).-The courage.
the ~joyousness of France. has been
the aspect of the war most remarked
by Jesse Benedict Carter, director OF
the American Academy of Rome. who
has been visiting provincial universe
ties in France as lecturer for the
Hyde Foundation.
nowhere have 1 found any lack
Of courage, any lack of JOY. any lack
Of willingness to work for victory"
said Mr.. Carter. 1.-The jo%yousness of
France in this moment Of crisis is not
the superficial thoughtlessness of
those who are afraid to think. 1t ID
the calm happiness Of those who can
not fail and who know that they cam
not fail because they are seeking after
earth and must therefore continue for
that very reason because, without
them, the earth would become a mad
house. The greatest things are always
simple and the French today are SIM
pie as Abraham Lincoln was in our
Civil war.
No Hatred for Germans.
There is no hatred eve for the
German. there is instructive abhor-
renee but no wasting of words over
symptoms and acts which belong in
the realm of pathological psychology.
Common decency draws a veil over
these things and leaves them to the
physicians who at the end will doubt
less write the verdict and give his full
skill to drawing up the post-mortem':
meantime it is day and we must work
in the day while Il strength and
our courage is with US.
'Of course there is a natural OBJ
jectivity about any people engaged in
n great work. They forget in the
enormous importance of what they
are doing. This is natures anaes-
thetic.

MAGNESIA TREATMENT
FOR DYSPEPSIA
Why Physicians Prefer It To Drugs,
Pepsin Or Soda In Treatment Of Acid
Indigestion.

only those in cons ant touch with
sufferers from indigestion and dyspep'
STA can fully realize the harm done by
the improper use Of drugs and artift
ciaI diGestents, remarked well
known New York physician recently.
'"Personally | rarely advocate the use
of drugs in the treatment of digestive
or stomach troubles, for in practically
every instance | have proved the I'M
deriving cause to be excessive acidity
of the stomach and consequently fer
mentation or sOuring of the food con-
tents.
Therefore in place CT the once wide
" used drugs | invariably recommend
tie use OF bisurated magnesia to neu-
tralize the stomach acidity and stop
the food fermenting, and the wonder
fui results | have obtained during the
past three years convince me there is
70 finer treatment for indigestion,
dyspepsia, etc. 1t must, of course, be
clearly understood that l do not en-
ploy or advise the use of such forms
of magnesia as Citrates, acetates, car
Donates, sulphate5, etc. These might
often do more harm than goOd; moth
ing but pure bisurated magnesia
should be used to neutralize an acid
stomach. This is not at all difficult
to Cbtain-in fact. | find that most
druggists now keep the genuine bisu-
rated magnesia in tablet form in adj
dition to the ordinary bisurated pow
der. A teaspoonful Of the powder or
two compressed tablets taken with a
little water after meals will usually
lie found quite sufficient to instantly
neutralize the acidity and prevent
food fermentation. thereby insuring
painless natural digestion for even
chronic sufferers. ADV.
