Chicago. Aug. II. - Sensational

values of corn amounted in some cases

that distillcrs had acquired all the
corn that could be utilized in the brief
period yet remaining for whiskey
manufacture unchecked by the new
food control bill.. With the compe-
tition from distilIers thus eliminated
other industries were not disposed to
pay recent high premiums.
Bcarish sentiment regarding wheat
became more pronounced in view of
an assumed unlikelihood of any sus-
tanned advance in prices now that the
market has been subordinatcd to the
official government food control. Few
traders evinccd any disposition to take
4 hand except millers who were buy
ing for immediate needs. Something
of an increase of the domestic visible
supply total on Monday was looked
for.
Predictions of an enlargement Of the
federal estimate of the oats crop

This Is Certain - Y,

The Proof That Prescott Readers Can
 not Deny.
 What could furnish stronger evi- dence of the efficiency of any remedy than the test of time? Thousands of people testify that Doan's Kidney Pills have brought lasting results.
 Home endorsement should prove un- doubtedly the merit of this remedy. Years ago your friends and neighbors testified to the relief they had derived from the use of Deans Kidney Fills. They now confirm their testimonials. They say time has completed the test. ..-,W. K. White, E.. Main St, Prescott says: 'I had been troubled off and on for years by lsmeness and stiffness a. cross my kidneys. had a sdull heavy ache through my loins and other kid ney disorders. This induced me to try Ooan's kidney pills. l got a box of this medicine at Hesterly's .Drug Store and found it to be suited to my case. I improved rapidly and it was not long before was in good health.
 Over Five Years Later-Mr. White said: hold just as high an opinion of Deans Kidney Pills as ever. The cure they brought me has been permanent. -
 Price COG, at all dealers. Don't sim ply ask for kidney remedy get Deans Kidney Pills-the same that MT. White has twice publicly recommended Foster-Milburn Co. Props, Buffalo, New York.

THE PINCH IS COMING

From reports coming from re- liable governmental sources. we are led to believe the real pinch of the war is yet to come. In our present state off seeming prosperity we have not felt the pangseand stings that are felt in other countries. but we will feel them. The time is coming when we have got to sacrifice and sac /, rifice to the hurt, if 1t is not al ready here.
 Secretary McAdoo has warned the nation that Sthe: government hasn't started yet to collect war expenses, and he tells us that when it does begin it is going to the quick. Spending: one hun. dred and sixty million every day calls for money. and if the peo- pie do not invest in the nations $ credit. the government will reach forth his strong arm and commander it. It says so
 Not only will the pinch come in financial way, but it will come in many other ways. It | going to hurt our manner of liv- ing and.hedge our extravaganza to the point of strictest economy. It is going to learn us mary things I've do not know !, and which will no doubt be valuable to us in years to come.
 The war, so far as We are con cerned, hasn't started yet but it's heavy and exacting hand al- ready rests heavily on many peo- pie. We now see that women are having to take the places of the men in the industrial pur- suits and are doing the hardest of drudgery work. It is going to become harder and harder and spread wider as the war pro. gresses. It is going to reach all classes.
 When the pinch comes women as we'll as men are going to feel the sting. Paint. powder and transparent lingerie will have to give way to the conventionalitie> a Id cOmmonsense dress, and fashion plates will have to go in- to discards. for as sure as the world stands the women are go- ing to have to bear their share of the awful burden.
 Another million men are soon to be called out and then the weight of the load will be double. Manpower will become scarcer and women-power will core srondingly increase. and as time goes on the burden will become i greater.
 We do not mean that We are going to have panics and tinan- cial upheaval, for We are not. But we do mean that the govern ment is going to exact every dol 1 lar of wealth and every ounce ot energy in this country to carry on this war.
