Although the majority of speculators may have made up their minds that wheat is cheap at present prices, and therefore a good purchase, it is folly to ignore the fact that appearances are decidedly militant to any important and immediate advance in prices. For instance, stocks of wheat in Chicago have increased over half a million bushels Qurlng the past week, and daily receipts continue very heavy for this season of the year, yesterday’s inspection for to- day being 876 carloads, most of which is spring. It the are; of winter has been deficient. the yiel of spring wheat has been immense. as demonstrated by the rapidity with which Western centres have been recently filled up. There can belittle doubt that the next returns of the visible supply on this continent will run over 33,000,000 bushels. This. in connection with the heavy reserves of foreign wheat in England and liberal home deliveries. should be snflicient to curb the too enthusiastic speculator who has been so fact that the world’s immediately available supply of breadstufis is largely in excess of consumptive requirements.

Mary Fritz, a‘ pretty young woman who resides on Lexington avenue, Cleveland, 0., attempted to end her life on Tuesday night by taking laudanum. She procured the laudannm three days ago, and on Tuesday night started out to call at a harness shop, i where Henry Blackburn, her lover. was at work. Blackburn had been paying her attention, but last spring suddenly ceased calling upon her, and ever since she has been cast dowu. She persisted in seeing him, however, and often visited his place of business alone. When she reached his shop on Tuesday night she held the bottle up to his viewand said she intended to take the poison. He made an efiort to restrain her, but before he could prevent it she had ‘swallowed the contents. She was taken to the police station, where doctors attended her. They tried to administer an emetic, but she fought them. saying she did not want to live any longer. Before the doctors I succeeded in giving her the antidote they ‘ broke several of her teeth in prying open I her month. There is little chance of her I recovery. 1 found.

The earth will yield more abundantly than ever before. The animal kingdom will be more rolific and life prolonged very materially. his prolongation of lile will be owing to the healthy electric and magnetic influ- ences that will pervade the atmosphere. It would perhaps seem that the present red- ness of the sun. and the presence of a belt or veil of cosmic matter. justified. in a mea- sure. the prediction of Professor Grimmer, but disturbing as his prediction may be we are told for our comfort that the strong and pure bIOoded need have little to fear in these calamities, that those who are deli- cate or indisposed should adOpt means to . keep the system well supported and the blood pure and that the most philosophical . and effective method 0! accomplish- ing this is to has the kidneys and liver in good condition. ‘rom the testimony of such men as Dr. Dio Lewis and Prof. R. A. Gunn. M. D., Dean of the United States Medical (loll s, New York. and thousands of influ~ enti non-professional people. it seems almost certain that for this purpose there is no preparation known to so ence equal to Warner's Bale Ours. This medicine has acquired the finest reputation of any pre- paration that was ever put upon the mar- ket. It is a radical blood purifier. which soothes and heals all inflamed organs, strengthens the nervous system, washes out all evidences of decay, regulates diges~ tion. prevents malassimilatiou of food in a philosophical and rational manner. iortifies the system against climatic changes and ‘ malarial influences and the destructive agencies which seem to be so abundant in these " evil days." It is not our purpose to dispute the cor. rectness of Professor Grimmer’s pro~ hecies. As we have said, the marked gisturbances of the past few years would seem to give a semblance of verification of his theory. It is certain. as above stated. that we are passm through what may be regarded as a cruc al period and it is the part of_wis_e men not to innore but to In". 7.----- nunooaobui'fflkfiii'gé’rv'fig Inasmuch as the entire world seems aub- jeot to the away of the heavenly bodies, no part of the earth, he thinks, can escape eoourging.
