CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Market Slumps In Anticipation of Sus
pension of Hostilities.
Chicago, Nov.. t. Nervousness and Ir
regularity today characterized the corn
market while traders watched for an
expected official announcement from
Washington that hostilities had ceased.
Ths market closed unsettled, 3o net
lower to 6c advance, the latter for No
vember, with December $1.19 to $1.20,
and January, $1.21 to $1.21. Oats
finished c off to c up, and provisions
varying from OOo decline to $1 advance.
Bears In corn clearly had tha advantage
most of the timet owing to general anti
cipation that an armistice with Ger
many would be signed with the least
possible delay. Especially during the first
half of the session, urgent orders almost
without exception were to sell, and buy
ing support displayed a noticeable lack of
vigor. Bulletins, telling of the spread
of revolution in Germany and about
chances of a. suspension of the draft In
the United States, acted as an evident
handicap on the bulls, but were partly
offset later by gossip that the shipping
board would make every effort now to
rush food and other supplies to Europe.
The November crop report from Wash
ington proved to be substantially Identi
cal with advance estimates here.
Oats showed more firmness than corn
i a result of Improved shipping de
mand.
Provisions swayed with corn. Initial
declines were more or less overcome.
Corn No. 1 yellow, $1.37; No. 3, yel

Lard $26.6026.65 t

Subsequently, reports that a suspension
of the draft was being considered at
Wssblngton and that revolution was
spreading In Germany tended further to
handicap the bulls and to prevent lasting
rallies. Ths close was unsetuea, xftc,
net lower to 5c advance, the latter for
November, with December $1.19 to
$1.20 and January $121 to $1.31.
Upturns which later took place were
not maintained.

STOCK MARKET.
Disturbing Influences Treated by False
Armistice Report Reflected In Oper
ations; Sentiment Confused.
New York, Nov. 8. The stock market
continued at the outset of today's more
moderate operations to reflect the dis
turbing Influences created by yesterday's
armistice hoax. Leaders lost 1 to 5 points,
hut soon recovered, in numerous instances
being succeeded by material gains over
the previous day's hlrhcst quotations.
Wall street is almost unanimously of
the opinion that the war is ended, but
manifests considerable confusion of senti
ment In proceeding to adjust its affairs
to peace conditions.
War stocks were alternately heavy and

DES MOINES TO
PLAY FOOT BALL
HERE SATURDAY
Central High Pigskin Warriors
Feel Sure of Victory,
but Admit It's a
Big Job.
The biggest game on Central
High's grid schedule will be played
this afternoon against the eleven
from North Des Moines, la. The
game has been anticipated for almost
a year by the local high school grid
fans because of the reported prow
ess of the Iowa warriors and the
sensation created in the sport world
by North High last season. The
game will be played at Rourke park
and will Ijegin at 3:30 sharp. The
second string will meet the Deaf
Institute team as a curtain raiser.
Although the drain on Central's
strength, caused by the departure
of so many of its best players, has
weakened the team to a great exent,
still the locals are confident of com
ing off with the honors. It is ac
knowledged, however, that the task
of humbling the visitors will be a
hard one.
Coach Teakle of North High has
a string of veterans on his team.
Eight of the men are vets, among
whom is Captain Allan, star halfback.
Collins is said to have considera
ble ability as a booter. The team
weighs abotit the same as the local
eleven, and also was forced to can
cel part of its schedule because of
the "flu."
Present Lineup.
Coach Mulligan's men are all in
fighting trim save Captain Art
Logan, who ill yesterday. He ex
pects to play, however. Another
big blow to the purple and white
hopes was received yesterday when
Chris Crowell, veteran guard, an
nounced that he leaves the school
Monday to join the Nebraska Wes
leyan S. A. T. C. When Logan was
shifted to fullback, Crowell was sent
to fill his place at center. With
Shanahan's return, however, Logan
will play center, Shanahan fullback
and Crowell guard. The rest of the
lineup this afternoon will probably
be: Harper and Swoboda, ends;
Shafer and Turner, tackles; Pollard,
left guard; Konecky and Peters,
ends, and Campbell, quarterback.

What Is Rheumatism?
Why Suffer from It?
Suffers Should Rsalize That It
Is a Blood Infection and Can
Be Permanently Relieved.
Rheumatism means that the blobd
has become saturated vith uric acid
poison. j
It does not require medical ad
vice to know that good health is ab
solutely dependent upon pure blood.
When' the muscles and iointa be
come sore and drawn with rheu
matism, it is not a wise thins to
take a little salve and by rubbing it
on the sore spot, expect to get rid
of your rheumatics. You must go
deeper than that, down -deep into
the blood where the poison lurks
and which is not effected by salves
and ointments. It is important that
you rid yourself of this terrible dis
ease before it goes too far. S. S. S
is the blood purifier that has stood
the test of time, having been in
constant use for more than fifty
years. It will do for you what it has
done for thousands of others, drive
the rheumatic poisons out of your
blood, making it pure and strong
and enabling it to make you well.
S. S." S. is guaranteed purely vege
table, it will do the work and not
harm the most delicate stomach.
Write the physician of thin Com
pany and. let him advise with you.
