NBW YORK. March 0. Hradstroefs
Financial Hovlew tomorrow will nay:
Kxtremo dullness has prevailed In specu
lation thin week. Tho stock market han
been bereft of outside support and them
also seems to be nn Indisposition 011 the
pnrt of lnrgo en pi till I st s to encourage any
decided movement at this time. Small pro
fessional operators have thereforo mndo
most of what little activity has been Been
nnd as usual under such circumstances
havo In tho main worked up on the bear
nine. Tho creation or it snort interest in
any particular stock seems, however, to
'lead to covering and small rallies which
partly rentoro prices to their former level
Money has been somewhat llrmer and
Ihero Is a. feeling In the street that until
the currency bill becomes a law and tho
largo amount of monoy now devoted to
carrying government bonds for banks
which Intend to convert them Into the new
2 per cents and take out circulation against
the same Is released there will bo 1 1 1 1 1 0
opportunity for any Improvement of 11
general character In necurlt es.
It Is recognized, furthermore, that a largo
part of tho heavy Increase during a serlen
of weeks In the loans of the Now York
banks, with reduction of their surplus re
serve, may be charged tin to bond nur-
chases made by bankers throughout the
country In connection with the refunding
and national bunk clauses of the bill. It In
also held by many that the Increane In tho
national nnnK circulation, nltnotigit not
likely to exceed the !150.0W,OOil which the
comptroller of the currency estimates an lln
probable limit, will have a powerful In
lluenre upon the financial ami speculative
situation throughout the Into spring unl
summer of the prenent year.
Nor doen Wall street give oitr to tho sug
gestions of a dangerous lnllatlnn from thin
cnuHP, but In Inclined to take a fnvorab'o
though conxervatlvo view of the probabili
ties. London has continued to be a mir-
thsser of iecurltlM In this market, al
though upon a rather moderate scale The
announcement by the llrltlnh government
of ih" war loan lsue of 2 per cent fur
jj:w.(joo,i"i had been full discounted and
there "perns to be no anticipation of finan
cial pressure In the foreign markets from
that cntiiip. In fact, the hardening or money
In London has been ypry slight and It may
lie notPd that foreign "Xcnange at ,M''
ork fell sharply this v cpk. on account or
tho heavy offering of ills against Kuio-
peitn purchae of rottoo Much attention
has been given to developments connected
with tiartlcular nronertles. like the reduc
tion of the dividend upon American Stiifar
common to a 0 per cent basi, mid 1 lie uim
cultlps In which the Third Aenup railroad
system Is Involved.
KHliroMii earnings enniinue to no in te-p

DOMINION OF CANADA.
! SOUTH OMAKANEWSj
In reply 40 complnlnts made about tho use
of old-tltno horse cars as trailers on the
Shetman nveniie motor line, nn ollleer of the
cnmpatiy stated to a Uco representative a
day or two ago that It wag the Intention to
soon abandon the uso of these curs. It is
expected that when nil arrangements aro
mnile for tho building of u loop around
Twenty-sixth street Improvements in rollln?
stock contemplated will bo made. Nothing
has been done as yet by the street car com
pany townrd extending the Q street stub
line, but this, It Is asserted, will conic as
soon as plans nre perfected for the better
service which It Is Intended to give this city.
At the present time twenty-ono trains arc
kept on the road, which gives a slx-mluutc
service.
It Is assorted by thoso who patronize tho
street cars a great deal that n (lvo-mlnuto
servlco Is needed. Tho running time be
tween this city nnd Omnh.i la also consid
ered too long.
An effort is to be made, so It Is stated, to
send a committee of representative ImsincBS
men to confer with the street c.tr olllclals in
regard to the Improvements desired. In this
way It Is hoped to secure some definite prom
ises as to what tho rompany proposes to do
this year. South Omaha is growing so rap
Idly that better facilities are needed. East
Side property owners hope to secure the ex
tension of the Thirteenth street line to Mis
souri avenue this summer, nnd if this is
done the congestion of truffle on tho
Twenty-fourth street line will be relieved to
some extent. Olllcers of the street car com
tuny predict that tho 'building of tho pro
posed lonp nnd the running of three extra
trains, morning and evening, will assist
greatly In handling a largo percentage of the
traffic.
The forty days allowed by the ordlnanc
passed by the council ordering the extension
of tho t) street stub line will expire in
day or two. Councilman Tralnor scoured
the nassogo Thursday night of a resolution
Instructing tho mayor to enforce tho ordi
nance and either compel tho building of the
extension or the lining of tho company as
provided by tho ordinance.
A Pointer fur Son Hi Oiniilin,
"That editorial In Tho llee tonight on
Tin Lesson of tho Omaha Election,' " Mid
n South Omaha republican yesterday, "hits
the nail Buuaroly on the head. It Is particu
larly pertinent to South Omaha republicans
nt tho present moment, as they aro prepar
ing for their city campaign. 1 reel so en
couraged from the result in Omaha that, I
bcllevo wo can capturo tho South Omaha
city government If wo put up a republican
ticket on which everyone can unite nnd
which will attract the working people, whose
votes nro tho votes that count here. It is
Idlo for tho republicans to mako any prom
ises about closing up tho town because ttio
people do not want it. They want a good
economic yet liberal administration such as
Mayor Moorcs has beon giving Omaha, anil
If wo put up a man who can be depended
upon to manago our city's affairs In tho
samo way I bcllovo we can elect him. As
a matter of fact tho church-golng members
of tho republican party are too good republi
cans to rcfiiso to support n republican can
didate Just because ho happens to bo a moro
liberal man than they might like to havo
him. Whnt we want to do is to mako ri
nomination nnd then hury nil factionalism
and get to work, and if wo do not win out
I will miss my guess."

The fanner who keeps
bees plants buckwheat
hntuly to the hives. He un
derstands that to put flowers
rich iu honey where the bee
can get them with least effort, means an
increase in the quantity nnd quality of
the honey Rarnered in the hives.
It is on this principle that Dr. Tierce's
Golden Medical Discovery increases the
quantity and quality of the nutrition of
tne body. The ingredients of this medi
cine are selected to furnish the blood
nnd stomach with the essential materials
for body building, in i concentrated and
assimilable form. They make the con
ditlons under which the stomach nnd
otgans of digestion and nutrition must
work, as easy as possible, and so reduce
strain and waste. As :bc strength of
the body is re-cstablisucd disease is
thrown off. It is due to this fact that
persons with weak lungs, obstinntc
cough, bronchitis, and other diseases,
which if neglected lead to consumption,
find o complete cure by using " Golden
Medical Discovery."

beit blood purifier tlut I ever uteil," writes Mrs.

NUW YORK. March 9. Bradatrect's to
morrow will say:
Helleved from tho hampering effects of
stormy weather, general trudo distribution
mm Known a tendency to axpiiud this week,
prices of many staples are llrmer or higher.
and generally there Ip a better tone than
noted for some weeks past, easily holding
llrst rank In the matter or sneculutlve nt
tlvltv Cotton ealy In the week touched the
highest level not only for thn present rea
son, but for at least six years past. A
sharp break duo to realizing has brought
the level down again. The crop movement
continue iulte heavy, notwithstanding ad
vices thnt there Ih no more cotton left nt
the south. It Is to be noted, however, that
the heaviest proportionate decline In prices
from the highest was In future limitations,
and tho close Huds spot cotton fully an high
as 11 week ago.
Print cloths, and In fai t all classes of
manufactured cotton, have sympathized In
the strong tone of the raw stuple and the
llrst mentioned product reached 3'2c this
week, tho highest point for several year."
p.ist. complaints or backward deliveries
of cotton goods continue, pointing to tho
urgent demand for supplies being a re
sourco of present strength In manufactured
goods.
Wool it rather weaker, following the drop
In prices at thn Ixmdon sale nnd the rather
flower demand rrom American nniuuractur
ers. who, being apparently well sunnlled
for the present, are contented to let tho
raw sta;i'e take care or Use r. while ob
tabling .1 good market and fair prices for
1110 mautiiacruren product.
Ily another one of the short swings
which have distinguished wheat prices for
a long time past, quotations nave been ud
vanced this week from the low level
touched svtmti time ago, nartly us tho re
stilt of less favorable reports from tho
winter sown crops 111 tne several western
states antl n.trtlv because of the utmnrcnt
unwillingness of country holders to follow
the market down. The checking of Interior
receipts hap apparently been sulllclent to
nuow or tne stoutly ciemand for wheat and
Hour and In a lesser degree corn to be re
llected In floating stocks. Oilier stanles
also showing reactions from late weaklier
are lard, coffee, butter nnd cheese. Among
stoplen showing declines this week might
be particularly mentioned sugar, which Is
lower both for raw and retlned grades. Hoot
and shoe manufacturers are actively em
ployed ami leatner Is tlrm, tint hides aro
weaker or lower nt most market
Hulldtng materials are tlrm, except nt
1 Itles where labor troubles are an:rc
heeded.
Pesplte a rather smaller production In
February, duo pirtly to dlrturbances grow
ln out of weather conditions, stocks of
some classes of nig Iron are larger, but
no n.vreeinnlp erreet appears 10 be exer.
clspd upon nrlces. The approach of spring
with the effect naturally looked for ivon
construction work. Is tending to rather less
pessimistic vlfw'h obtaining circulation as
to tho future of orlces of those vroducts

must be the best possible medicine for cnnnlo Ills.
Hut home women make the mistake of thinking that thr y will try some
thing else simply beenuM- it Is new. Thai mistake Is often ft fatal one
fatal to the health and happiness of the experimenter.
is li not foolish to risk (ha possible results of
such experiments ? is it not better to depend upon
a medicine which has boon tried successfully for
thirty years, and which has never beon found gj
wanting ?

Rely on your own common sense, nntl Mrs. I'inkham's life-long
experience, antl you will make no mistake. Don't experiment with your health, but take, n. medicine that you fcnout
is good, and is backed by hiich letters ab thes-o to Mis. I'iukham :
