Wheat Market
SHOWS Strength

CHICAGO, May 19.-(A. P)-De-
cided upturns in wheat prices resulted
yesterday from unfavorable crop re-
ports and from more active export de-
mand. The market closed strong,
to 3 IA net higher, with May $1.4S y
to s1.4SA and July s1.1SA to s1.1S1a,
Corn gained - to l, oats IL to 3-4
and provisions two to 81.
1t was only at the start that wheat
showed any tendency toward SET
back. Offerings, however, were quick
ly absorbed and the market then NOV
cd upward fast. About one million
bushels of cash grain were said to
have been taken, for export, with some
foreign business in the new crop said
also to have been put through. Clos
ing quotations were at the topmost
level of the day.
Active shipping demand for corr
helped to lift the market for corn and

nourished. It is also through the blood
stream that worn-out tissues and
waste products are cast out of the
system.
When waste products accumulate,
they are menace to life. They cause
a lowered vitality, many skin disorders
and rheumatism. Genuine relief from
the agonies Of rheumatism can be had
only by correcting the basic trouble

and Often Very Harmful.

When you notice that your tongue
is becoming coated, your breath heavy
or feverish, your skin sallow, your
mind and body sluggish. or when you
suffer frequently with bilious head
aches. you should promptly correct
the cause, which is a torpid liver and
inactive bowels. This condition is
popularity known as biliousness and
is usually associated with constipa-
ton, indigestion, dyspepsia, headache,
backache, etc.

your liver with calomel or other nau-
seating cathartics. You will get much
quicker and more pleasant relief by
flushing the liver and bowels with

folks seeing snakes and also those who
were so particular that they had to
make nightly inspection to see If
there were any snakes under the bed
or in the house. Well last night about

snake was discovered calmly reposing
in that place Of business. Several
Of the folks who happened to be
around at the time Joined in to help
kill the snake. It was a moccasin
about three feet long. We did not
measure It. but we know that it was
killed. 1t was discovered by one of
the members of the firm, of course we
can't say whether he had been seeing
them for some time or not, but he was
sure right for one time. It is not
known how long the snake had been
making its home in the Central ga

MOURNS
DEATH OF CITIZEN
Passing Of Mrs. Margaret =. Bruce
Yesterday Morning Came
as Surprise.

Pensacola lost one more OF its re-
spected old citizens yesterday morn
ing In the death of Mrs. Margaret F.
Bruce. widow of the late Martin II.
Bruce, when that estimable soul
passed away to her reward IN the
early hours of Monday morning.
Mrs. Bruce was born in Echsternach,
Grand Duchy de Luxemburg, in 1897
She came to America in the late hfties,
and located IN Bagdad. There she
met Martin Bruce, the pioneer of dry
docking industry in this section. and
into happy married life.
She lived in Bagdad from that time
until a few years ago when she moved
to Pensacola to be near her immediate
family.
During her long stay in Bagdad she
gained the respect and esteem of all,
and the news of her sudden demise
was received there with much sorrow
and regret.
Mrs. Bruce. in spite OF her age, was
a woman of exceedingly great vitality,
and 1t was only during her last few
weeks that she was forced to accept
assistance in her walks around her
home.
Her death. though sudden, was not
unexpected, and was most happy
ending to life which had been de-
voted to the interests of others, and
which had been true to the principles
and teachings of the Catholic church,
of which the deceased was a devout
member.
Mrs. Bruce's death leaves among
numerous relatives, one sister, Mrs.
Chas. Ahrens; two sons, DR.. e. f.
Bruce and Geo. Bruce: one daughter,
Mrs. w. A. Watson; two grand
daughters. Mrs. Thos. A. Johnson and
Miss Lydia Mary Bruce: and one
great grandson, Bruce Johnson.
The remains Of the dear old lady
will be laid to rest in Bagdad, along
side of her late husband. The cortege
will leave the residence Of her grand
daughter, Mrs. Thos. A. Johnson, at
$3.50 Tuesday morning for Bagdad,
where requiem mass will be cele-
brated by Rev. Father Robert Fuller
ton.
The pallbearers will be Messrs VIII
L. Meyer, William Blumer, Henry
Ahrens, Chas. Saunders, Jos. v. Riera,
and Gerald Quina- Tho honorary pail
bearers will consist of close friends of
the deceased from Bagdad, who will
accompany the body to its last resting
place.
