ease that is such an annoyance and
a constant hadicap? q
You must accept the teachings Of
science, which shows that to get.
rid OF any disease, you must treat
it at its source, you must direct
your efforts toward removing its
cause, instead of being satisfied
with slight temporary relief from
its symptoms. You must rout out
from your blood the millions of
tiny germs which cause Catarrh, so
that there can be no more inf1am-
nation Of the nose and throat, and
choked up nasal passages that
make breathing difficult and pain
full.
S. S. s., the fine old blood remedy,
has given splendid results IN the
treatment Of Catarrh, and you will
be delighted with its effect on your
case. It so purihes and cleanses
the blood, that disease germs are
eradicated, hence when the germs
of your Catarrh are eliminated
from the blood, you are on the
right road to permanent rid-
dance from the disease. 60 TO

MONTHLY COMPARISON OF EMPLOYMENT IN TWELVE
The Washington herald., 1920-12-14
Wheats Statistical
Position Is, StrOna

The daily wheat letter of Thom-
son and McKinnon. grain brokers'
issued at the close Of yesterdays
market, read as follows: Export
demand for wheat has again been
in evidence. Volume of business is
restricted by a scarcity of offerings.
The visible supply of wheat in de-
tail makes a rather startling show
ing. Not only is the total visible
about one-half of that of a year
ago, but, of the total of 4S,7OO,O00,
33,000.0O0 is at the seaboard, or
nearby. therefore not available for
domestic milling purposes when the
demand revives. Argentine markets
were lower under favorable weather
for harvest. On the other hand, ex-
cessive rains are reported in New
South Wales and drought In India
In the face of demoralized stock
market. and with investors in wheat
decidedly timid, the sharp upturn
in the early market is noteworthy.
To us it is significant Of a com
plete liquidation Of unnecessary
holdings in grains. The system of
trading for future deliveries in the
grain markets permits complete
liquidation. There is, no such
method in commodities and indusS
tries. The statistical position is
strong. 1t ought not to be necessary
to refer to this. The sharp advance
in prices. despite gloom over the
business world generally. ought 10
be sufficient indication of tbe con-
dition of the market.
