Hogs Receipts today amounted to 59
loads, estimated at 4,100 head. The mar
ket opened at generally steady prices on
the beat grades of hogs, working to 10c
lower and possibly more on the common
heavy packing grades. Trade waa very
uneven and sales scattered over a wide
range with probably aa many loads at
$17.00 as there were at $16.50. Tops
went to $17.15 with the long string at
116.70 and $16.80 and bulk of sales was
$16.60017.00. The general market Is
steady to 10c lower.
Sheep There were 78 loads of sheep re
ported In today estimated at 11.600 head.
Quality of receipts was only fair and the
market rather slow in getting under way,
largely due to ths late yarding of re
ceipts. Indications wers for probably
steady market on fat lambs and steady to
higher on feeders.

provisions varying from 75o decline to 30o
advance.
Before news was received that the con
tents of the statement from the German
government was likely to become public
this afternoon the corn market had a de
cided upward swing, Influenced almost
wholly by ths faot that delay to the an
swer was construed on all sides as bullish.
Nevertheless, support displayed at no
time an aggressive character and had be
come nearly exhausted when about one
hour before the close a sudden Increase
of selling denoted the effects of the sup
posed bearish tenor of Germany's answer.
Later Interpretations were more or less
conflicting and shorts oovered somewhat
freely at the last.
Oats paralleled tha action of corn. Most
of the trade was local.
Provisions averaged higher, notwith
standing weakness in the hog market. AH

Capt. Edward Grant, ex-Third
Baseman of Giants, Killed
in Fighting in the
Argonne.
.With the American Army North
west of Verdun, Oct. 21. (By As
sociated PressV Capt. Edward
Grant, forfher third baseman of the
New York National league club, and
attached to the Three Hundred Sev
enth infantry, was killed by a shell
while leading a unit to the aid of
the famous "lost battalion." The
battalion was surrounded for five
days in the Argonne forest and Cap
tain Grant was killed during one of
the attempts to reach it.
Grant first earned base ball hon
ors while at Harvard university,
where he was one of the best all
around players of his day. After
graduation he played with independ
ent teams and later with the Jersey
City club of the International
league. From 1907 to 1909 he played
second base for the Philadelphia
Nationals and the following year he
was traded to Cincinnati. In 1913
he was purchased by the New York
Nationals and played third and
shortstop for the Giants until 1915
when he resigned to enter business.
At the outbreak of the war he en
tered an officers' training camp,
where he was graduated later with
high honors.
Grant is the first of the many ma
jor league base ball players in the
service to give his life for his coun
try. He was born in Franklin,
Mass., in 1883.

Dear Sirs As I waa mixing some
more of the Mentho-Laxene in syrup
this morning I could not help but
wonder if you really knew what a
wonderful cold remedy it is, even if
you do put it up.
Last fall we were really worried
about my husband, as he had tried
so many remedies, and the doctor
did not help him at all, when one
day he happened to read an ad of
your Mentho-Laxene and he said:
"I will give it a trial, then give up,
I guess, if it doesn't help me." But,
can you believe it? He began to
feel easier right away, and long be
fore the first bottle was gone he was
all over his terrible cough, and by
taking a little when feeling hoarse,
just a little, we both have warded
off every bit of coids and coughs
since, until Monday of this week he
got his feet so wet and by night he
coughed again quite badly, but this
morning he was 0. k. again.
This is 3 :00 p. m., so you see how
quickly it worked.
We have gotten ever so many
others to use it by giving them a
sample of ours.
This is just a line to tell you how
grateful we both are to you and
your remedy.
Yours truly,

S. S. S. Greatest Blood Remedy
Gives Results When Others Fail
Nature's Remedy for Blood
Troubles.
The purifying and curative prop
erties of Nature's 1 great remedy
have made "S. S. S. for the Blood"
a household saying. Thousands to
day enjoying perfect health owe
their recovery from blood or skin
diseases to this universally used
blood purifier, S. S. S. is made en
tirely from roots, herbs and barks,
which possess cleansing and healing
ingredients. You cannot be well
when your blood is impure; you lack
strength and energy natural with
health; your complexion becomes
pale and sallow; your vitality is
weakened, ,When waste or. refuse
matter, which Nature intends shall
be thrown off, is left in the system,
it is absorbed into the blood and
boils, pimples,-rashes, blotches and
other eruptions of the skin appear.
S. S. S. goes into the circulation
and removes every particle of blood
taint or poison of every character.
All skin diseases and eruptions pass
away, and the smooth clear skin
glowing with health, shows that the
body is being nourished by rich
pure blood. Rheumatism, Catarrh,
Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison
all are deep-seated blood disorders,
and for their treatment nothing
equals S. S. S. Get S. S. S. at any
drug store. If yours Is a peculiar

Monmouth Parks Defeat
Knights of Zion, 26 to 0
Thefootball game Sunday after
noon between the1 Monmouth Park
team and the Knights of Zion re
sulted in an overwhelming defeat
for the latter team, the score being
26 to 0 in favor of the Parks. The
defeat of the Zions is more notable
because of the fact that two weeks
ago the Parks asked them for a
game but were refused on the
grounds that they were not in a
class with the Zions.
Line plilnge and end runs were
the features of the Parks' playing
throughout the game. They have
not been scored against this, season,
and are looking for more games, es
pecially with an out of town high
school, to be played on Thanks

Ask People to Be Careful
and Take Proper Treat
ment Promptly. Many
Pneumonia Cases Follow
Influenza, What to Do.
To bs preparsi for the serious out
breaks of Influents and Pneumonia that ar
now sweeping over the entire eountry and .
that have seized on this community, Pub
lio Health Boards, everywhere are issuing:
cautions and instructions to the publio
not to neglect treatment at the first
symptoms of a oold and to co-operate with .
tha board and physicians in stamping out
the spread of the disease.
No disease develops so quickly or spreads
so rapidly. . The first symptom usually is
a sharp rise in temperature to 108 or 104
degrees, headache, pain in the back, throat
feeltni dry or sore. Unless promptly
checked by proper treatment, the best
plan is to . go to bed and stay there for
at least a week, keeping warm to avoid
pneumonia and let the minor ailment run
its course and also prevent the spread of ,
the disease to others.
Host of us, in these busy days, cannot
afford, if it can be avoided, to lose week
or more of work, so it is all the mora '
necessary that at the very first sign of
grip or influenza a counter-acting .treat,
ment should be taken. '
Probably no better or more effectiv
treatment could be followed at such a
ttms than to get from ths nearest drug
stors complete Hyomel outfit consisting
of a bottls of the pure Oil of Hyomei and
a little vest pocket, hard rubber inhaling
device into which a few drops of the oil
are poured. . ,
This is sll you will need. Put tha tn
haler in your mouth and breathe Its air
deep Into the passages of your nose,
throat and lungs. Every particle of air
that enters your breathing organs win
thus be chsrged with an antiseptic germ
killing balsam that will absolutely destroy
the germs of influenza that have found
lodgment there.
You can't do this too often. The Hr
omei Inhaler is small and ean bo oonven
iently csrried in a hand-bag or in youf
vest pocket Every half hour or so through
out the day take it out and draw a few
breaths of Its pure healing air into rout
nose and throat Belief comes almost in
stantly. The Grip of Influenza symptoms
subside. Congestion eeases, fever disap
pears, throat conditions become normal
and you soon are feeling fine. The out
fit is not t all expensive for the rub bet
inhaler will last a lifetime while the Oil
of Hyomei can be obtained at little eost
from any reliable druggist Lots of people
already have, a Hyomei rtUw. Take it
out, charge It and use It without delay.
If you haven't one get It today.
A few cents spent bow may easily pre
vent serious Illness and says you many
dollars and help stamp out the spread of
the disease.
