BEEF STEERS. ST, JOSEPH MAN HAD NOT WORKED IN TWOMONTHS Was So Weak and Run Down Before He Got Tanlac He Couldn't Stay On Job. y shi Science has discovered that most 'of the many ills that afflict human ity are traceable to a disordered con dition of the stomach and intestines. Keep these organs healthy and ac tive and you will remain strong, sturdy and well, as nature intended you should bo. Therefore, if you are suffering from stomach trouble or any of the numerous disagreeable symptoms re sulting from it, the experience of others who have testified to the ben efits they have derived from the use of Tanlac should appeal very forci bly to you. Among the many Missouri people who have realized the remarkable powers of. the medicine is Hanson Kurtoz, 218 Felix street, St. Joseph Here is what he says: "Tanlac will always get a good recommendation from me, for it has relieved me of a case of nervous in digestion that made me miserable for three years. I had no appetite it all and my stomach was so upset that I could not eat anything but what would sour, hloat me up terribly and cause the worst sort of pains. I could hardly sleep at all. would just twist and souirm in bed until I was worn out and then get up as tired as if I had not gone to bed at all. I also suffered pains in both sides and was so dizzv at times I could hardly stand on my feet. "For two months, before I got Tanlac. I was so run down and weak I had to lay off from work. Well, it certainly is wonderful how quick ly the right medicine will get a per son to teeline right again. I had not finished my first bottle of Tan lac until my appetite began to pick up and the gas stopped forming on my stomach. My appetite is so good now that I can hardly get enough to eat and I never feel a touch of in digestion. Just to say it all in as few words as possible, I never have a dizzy spell, pain or an uncomfort able feeling now and my nerves are so quiet that I sleep like a. child all night. I am now feeling Ike my old eelf again, am working every day, and getting back my lost weight and strength right along. After getting 'luch wonderful results myself I could not do otherwise than recom mend Tanlac." Tanlac is sold in Omaha at all erman & McConnell Drug Com pany's stores, Harvard Pharmacy and West End Pharmacy.

Stocks drifted about today, even the professional trading element lacking incentive for sustained effort on either side of prices. There appeared to be a moderate amount of realizing sales scattered throughout the five hours of business and particular industrial issues were depressed one to two points at times, but at the close net gains outnumbered declines. Railroad shares failed to make good the promise supplied i n Wednesday's operations of a further advance. They moved irregularly and buyers seemed unwilling to fol low up the early advantage which came from the stirring of spec ulative sentiment the day before through active efforts at Washing ton to decide upon methods for in creasing freight rates and to care for needed financing. Liberty bonds rallied slightly, the 3's being the firmest of the group. Cotton gained a little ground, but the grain market was heavy. fall Money Kuy. The call money rate again indicated sizable cupiillrs of funds at New York, thereby falling; to represent the credit stringency which Is being emphasized more nd more by news from interior cities. uepresentatlons of live stock raisers, farm ers and others before the Inslerslate Com merco rommlsslcn in the house on Wednei day concerning ftclght car shortages was highly Illuminative of a ltuailo!i virtually affecting credit. Ornln and cattle, pork producls, lumber ana mrtny oiner ronm-odiue:? neeeauirv lo the daily life of the. people, arc beint; held from the markets because freight movement !s -estrlrtd. The effect of tho railway strikes w ill shortly wrar away, but the evidence acquired in many quarters of inadequate supplies of roliing soek 'nt' cars are most neeflott Is sometning which cannot be corrected in a week or a month. It hss beeome clear that prices for some sorts of goods are so high that consumers refuse to pay. and this more than any suddenly discovered virtue on the part of the seller Ih bringing forward cut-price sales of essentials. And It Is be mine; clearer than before that tho campaign for credit deflation, through hnn.lcsppcd by the Inability of mnny borrowers to move their goods In liquida tion markets, is getting genuine results in various localities. Treasure on Lenders. In the middle and southwest, banklne comment refers to pressure being brought to bear upon lenders to increase some lines of credit, accompanied by complaints that business Is being hurt. It would not be surprising if business were retarded by lack of free credit, but it is an open question whether persistent price ad vances such as the winter months brought would not bring a similar result through the sheer inability of consumers to buy. While call loans were readily arranged at 7 per cent today there was no sign of easement in rates for long term funds. The Bank of England reported an In crease oi la.iiuo.iHio in circulation and significant Increase of gold during the last week. The week before notes out standing expanded $9,500,000 and ss re serves have been receding during the fort night the ratio of reserve to liabilities has been carried down to 14.47 per cent. The lowest rate of the year was 12.20 per cent. Sterling exchange advanced Hie, the demand rate being J3.84!H at the close of business. Francs were firmer than the aay oeiore with lire a trifle heavy. Chicago Grain ; Omaha Grain By Charles D. Michaels Chicago Tribune-Omaha, lie Leased Wire. Chicago, May 6. Grain prices were lowest at the start and highest about the close with all deliveries of corn and July oats at new high figures on the crop. I Excellent weather conditions over the west with better crop reports induced considerable local pressure early. On the breaks, strong commission houses absorbed the surplus in the pits and prices started upward. Stoploss orders were caught at $1.71 for July corn, and had it not been for profit taking and selling against offers the upturn might have been larger. Corn had a range of 4,4i'6!c and oats Z)i(i.2li for the day, closing within a fraction of the top. Corn gained 2b(-'-3ic on the deferred fu ttired and 5c on May, while oSts were up ic, rye 2((iic and barley lie. Congestion in t orn. May corn showed increased congestion and touched 81.89 on the bulge, or He under the outside figure paid In the sam ple market for No. i yellow. Closing of A spread between .Piy and .luly wuw re sponsible for part of th' advance. The strength In the May and In tho cash more than offset uenthe conditions and re ports that planting was getting under way in Illinois and lown. Oats de.'llned Ticflc early o.i the wtather and crop reports, but the strength in corn prr,"ed too iniuh for, the bears and they had to cover. May v:is in clined to lug from the start, b'.ing under pressure from scattered lttgs. The railroad situation was somewhat better, more switching being done, and eastern lines furnished a few cars at locui elevators. Sharp Rally In K,ve. Profit-taking in rye was a faclor In making a lower range, but the strength in other grains led to a sharp rally that carried May up to within He of the high est figures on the crop. No. 2 on track, lffle higher at 2"!f2V4c over May with sales at 2.13(ff2.14W. llarley was unchanged to 1c higher with sales at $ l.tiO (f l.fif, the latter a new high on the crop.

The farmers' elevator nere, wnicti operates seven elevators on the union Pacific and the Rurllnirton have requisitions in for cars for all eleva tors and have not had a car at any of ine seven stations this week. Oats are. all planted in this section; wneai is greening up in good snaps plenty of moisture. Chicago firm says: We find a littlo better situation on the railroads and know that some empties were furnished in the ( hlcago district yesterday for loading, also some of the down state points. Cash prices here are the highest obtaining any where and thero were soma offers of small lots of corn now loaded to come here which had originally been destined to other markets. Altogether the strain seems to be off of the buying side which means some recession in. values. Vandusen-Harrington crop report.
