President Wattles returned homo yesterday
from a brief rest at Hot Springs , Ark. , and

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

Cessions of congress.
( A letter from Secretary L. S. Scott of the
.Western . Editorial association stated that the
assoclatlton will meet In Omaha July 7 to 9
and asked that thosu dutca bo designated as

that the request would bo compiled with.

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

each state to camp at Omaha during the sum

There is too little

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

cry , " ' I'avorlte Prescription' and ' 1'lcnsant Pel-

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

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.
