AU.K.V ACCHl'T.S AX INVITATION. ( Will Deliver nn , Ailriren * nt of the K.\io.iltlon. President Wattles returned homo yesterday from a brief rest at Hot Springs , Ark. , and found among the letters on his desk ono from Senator Allen , accepting the Invitation to deliver an address on the opening day ot the expedition , provided matters were In eucli shape at that time as would permit him absenting himself from attendance upon the Cessions of congress.

The president notified the secretary that the request would bo compiled with. ( President Wattles has sent out letters to the governors and exposition vlco presidents of each of the trausinlsslsslppl elates , asking them to select days during the exposition to bo designated In honor of each of these etatra. Similar Icttcra will be sent to the j governors of each ot the eastern states , mak ing a like request. The president la In receipt of replies to let ters sent to the adjutant general ot each Btato west ot Ohio , Inviting the mllltla of each state to camp at Omaha during the sum mer , These replies arc nearly all favoiable , but a proviso U inserted that In the event There is too little ' preaching of the gospel of health. It /is the last thing Unit anyone thinks .of ? teaching , either to a ' man - child or woman- child. It is one of the most important branch es of an education. Without health , a man will be a business , and a ivontan a social failure.- When the body of either a man or n woman is prop , erly nourished , the result the enjoyment of good health. Almost all ill-health Is due.to . improper or in sufficient nourishment. If the stomach ia right and the v liver is right , the blood \yill receive its normal supply of the life-giving elements of the food and the body will he properly nourished. Dr. Picrcc's Golden Medical Discovery acts directly upon the stomach and liver. It purifies anil enriches the blood. It is the great blood-maker , flesh-builder , nerve tonic and restorative. It promotes the natural activity of the en tire nutritive organism. U puts nn end. to the slow starvation that is at the base of many diseases. It does not make flabby fat like cod liver oil , but firm , muscular tissues. It docs not make corpulent people ple more corpulent but builds up the sys tem to the normal standard. ' " I was run down with nervous prostration and female weakness and kidney trouble , " writes Mrs. Marnmla Ramsey , of rim.itttVnrrcu Co. , Tcnn. "My bowcU were constipated. My whole system was wrecked. My frlcuds thought a I would die. I had read of Dr. 1'icrce'a medi cine * and sent for the 'Oolden Medical Dlcov- cry , " ' I'avorlte Prescription' and ' 1'lcnsant Pel- leu. ' Iu one week's time I began to lt up. In two weeks I could lt up all day , after t > efng so bad that I had to be helped in and out of bed. I hare taken four tattles of' Golden Medical Dis covery * and two of' Favorite Prescription' and so m in better health than I have been for years. " Constipation is the father of all manner Of maladies. If it did not exist , or was in at all cases promptly relieved , the majority of medical books could be safely destroyed. It is the easiest sickness to neglect and the simplest to cure. Dr. Picrce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation every time. They cure it promptly , completely and perma nently. They never gripe. They don't get yon out 'o nights. One "Pellet" is a gentle laxative , and two a mild cathartic. Druggists keep notUiug else "just as good.

VVKKKI-V STOCK 'MARKET HEVIBW. Xet Ailvnnco In 1'ricen from I. lint Sntiinlny. NEW YORK , April 9. The level of prices In the stock market is not widely different from that of lasfTsaturday. but it is above It. It has been above It all week , the high level being reached on Wednesday afternoon m the announcement of the postponement of the president's message. The market has sagged since then , but has not fallen to last Saturday's level , The rebound on Wednes day was attributed to a belief that the post ponement of the message was designed to further a peaceful solution , Tim suddenness and violence of the advance was a demon stration of the. exceedingly nervous condition of the Hhort Interest , which Is currently sup posed to be still very large. The uneasiness of this clement Ie duo to the fact that the level of prices has never been as low again since as It was on Friday before the Maine report was presented to congruis. This neem * to clearly demonstrate that the dau- gcrs to property value Inherent In that report ' and the results likely to grow out of It wcro pretty thoroughly discounted. The eagerntns of the shorts to cover on any material decline has served to sustain the market ever nlnee. That the short IntcreHt Is eagerly awaiting the effect of a warllko message to congress in order to cover la evident. Liquidation of long accounts iu anticipation of that event has been light. How far the actual event would dlxlodgo of fer Inc. a Is the problem which the ghortn are studying with a somewhat feverish uneasi ness. The undercurrent of belief In the pos sibilities of a peaceful adjustment ot tus Cuban entanglement has alsi been strong In Wall street , and has rarved to sustain prices. Movi > iiu nt of Kin-He.
