Overcomes ' wasting tendencies and brings back rosy cheeks and bright eyes. It’s surprising how quickly children respond to Scott’s Emulsion.

Several levees have broken under the pressure and several more are in extremely dangerous condition. Just. how serious the situation is may be guessed from the order in force today from Cairo to the gulf to shoot any person tampering with the levees or even sus- pected of cutting them. The levee patrols are heavy all along the river, and every guard in the flood district has now received orders to shoot any per- son seen on the embankments at night and to fire on any boat that lands without lights conspicuously displayed, At Memphis and the other principal ports notice of these regulations has been posted. The main levee at Caruthersville broke, but a “‘bonnet’’ that had béen built behind it is holding the water. Work is still. be- ing rushed on the levee, and it will proba- bly be completed in time to save the St. Francis basin. The Ashland levee, in Mississippi, was overtopped by the river, but it has been impossible to learn the outcome further than that thousands of acres have been flooded. The people are believed to be safe, as they telegraphed to Natchez for a boat to take them off. It was sent. The Arlington levee, near Baton Rouge, is in bad condition, and 1000 laborers, convict or free, are working on it. The Hannaberry (Ark.) levee broke, as did those at English and Pendleton. Great gangs of men are working on al! of them, but the country is elmost certain to be flooded. The Bougere (La.) protective levee broke, but a railway embankment behind it is expected to save the district. Hundreds of refugees continue to pour into Memphis and Natchez. . DEATHS.

Because your mother paid high prices for Mocha and Java is no reason why you should do so now. Aside from the Padang coffee controlled by the Dutch 'Government (and there isn’t enough of that to supply the people of St. Louis alone) the other grades grown in Java are not a bit better and some much poorer than the coffees coming from Central America and other coffee-raising districts. ' There is no reason for paying the same old high prices for coffee whose uniformity cannot be maintained. And it should be remembered that the cost of coffee has been greatly reduced in,the last 10 years. ee , Have you been getting the benefit of this reduction ie No !—emphatically no! But now you have the opportunity to do so.

Prof. Un- na, Hamburg, Germany, European author- ity on skip diseases, says dandruff is a germ disease. The germ burrows under the scalp, throwing up little scales of cuticle, and sapping the vitality of the hair at the root. The only hair preparation that kills dandruff germs is Newbro’s Herpi- cide. “Destroy the cause, you remove the effect.” Not only cures dandruff, but stops falling hair and causes a luxuriant growth.

The nominee is Peter H. Felker, a man of excellent character and standing, who is an active member of the Schoo] Patrons Alliance. The Twenty-fourth and Bleventh ward people have done well. They have demonstrated their de- termination to fight the corrupt machines and ward heelers and to redeem the House of Delegates. Vigorous campaigns shou!d be waged for Messrs. Uthoff and Felker.

A Charleston Mother Did So With Ad- vantage to Herself and Children. A mother living in Charleston, Mass., the happy possessor of four children, writes: “Every fall and winter I have laid in a stock of cough remedies, croup mixtures anid throat medicines for my bidren. for somehow or other they never seem to be free from colds, coughs or sore throat. “This fall I made a change in the usual program. I had myself been cured of an obstinate entarrh, from which I had suf- fered for years, by Stwart’s Catarrh Tab- lets, and as they were pleasant to take I determined to try them with my children. Our family physician told me he knew them to be perfectly safe and nothizp better could be used for catarrh, coughs and colds. “So I gave them to the children and have continued to do so ever since, when- ever there is the least sign of croup or sore throat, and I no longer dread the approach of cold weather as I once did. “Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets not only cured me of chronic nasal and throat catarrh but they have saved me many an anxious night with my little ones. The children like the taste of them, and it is really wonderful how quickly they will break u a eroupy cold or an obstinate, desp-neatal cough.” People who have used sprays, inhalers, salves or washes for catarrh and have found how useless they are, will be agree- ably surprised at the results following the us# of a pleasant, convenient, internal remedy in tablet form. Druggists every- where admit that Stuart’s Catarrh Tab- lets, which sell, for 60 cents full sized pack- age, is the safest, most effective and popu- lar of catarrh medicines. ves it the lastre and silkinese of youth.

A popular, a complete and a truly con- structive work under the tilte and on tne subject of “Old Testament Crilici=m and the Christian Church” is announced for spring publication by Charles. Scribner's Sons. The author fs John E. McFadyen, professor in Knox College, Toronto, author of ‘The Messages of the Prophetic and Priestly Historians.”’ | It is the higher criticism controversy in a nutshell and for lay as well as clerical readers.’ Just what the higher criticism fs, in idea and in detafl, just what is “left” of the Bible, may be learned from Prof. McFadyen’s pages as they can be nowhere else. The tone of his work is thoroughly con- gervative, if mot in the specific at least in the genera] sense, and his aim is not only to characterize and the present state of biblical research and the etuation growing out of this for the whole Christian world, but to relate the results of the higher criticism to the needs of the church and harmonize helpfully the current dissen- sions. portray A Catechism of Music. “Gibbon’s Catechism of Music,’’ bon Chambers Killough, is published by the H. B. Stevens Co., Boston, price 60 cents. It is a concise and comprehensive text book, intended for the use of classes, or for self-instruction. It gives answers to 499 question, covering every branch of the subject. It will be found of much value to music teachers because of its simplicity, convenient form, good arrangement of topics and clear type. The various illus- trations are helpful. The book has re- ceived the indorsement of several musi- clans. by Gib- —_——_ The Real “Chimmie Fadden.” An author’s literary personality is quite frequently a mask which hides his real life. Lewis Carroll, whom the world Knows as the author of “Alice in Wonderland,” was really a mathematician. And Edward W. Townsend, the author of the novel of New York life, which McClure, Phillips & Co. are to bring out this month, is an expert in gonstitutiomad history. It is true that he wrote ‘“‘Chinimie Fadden,’’ and the world was delighted with the characters, opening its eves an well at the picture of New York presented. “Lees and Leaven,’’ the new book, is a strong one, and will make most people, who think they know their Nw York, stare. But, whatever praise his new novel receives, Mr. Townsend will go peacefully along his way delving at the roots of constitutional hisory. There lies his real joy. The success of his book would be as nothing to the success of his efforts at ferreting out the origin of some recondite paragraph in a musty constitutin- al document. The real Mr. Townsend is the expert in constitutional history, who writes more for pleasure than profit, and ecca- sionally takes a fall out of the Bogey at golf, by way of relaxation and exercise, An Admirable Local History. “Mercantile, Industrial and Professional St. Louls” is the title of a substantial vol- ume just issued from the prees of the Nix- on-Jones Co. It is from the hand of F D. Kargau, for 40 years one of the best- known journalists of the city about which he writes. The book is filled with valuable facts concerning the industrial, proferasional and social life of the community from the first hour of its settlement to the present moment, and goes etill farther, for it is a complete and reliable forecast of the gigan- tic Exposition that ‘s soon to invite the urmiverse within its gates. The volume has been a great undertaking, and when ite mass of interesting detail is considered, together with the fact that .ae author is totally blind, it may be regarded ae a remarkable ach'evement—one that would have taxed the energies and re- ources of a writer not handicapped by mis- fortune. Mr. Kargau says in his preface that his work “may be considered a modest contri- bution ‘to our local history, a true picture of our development and a faithful mirror of what St. Louis does in the field of in- dustry and commerce.” It contains a br*ghtly written history of St. Louis, an ed- ucational review of the Louisiana Pur- chase, a history of the World's Fair, with plan and scope, a list of the officials’ a de- scription of the grounde and buildings, and of the men who are bullding the white civ, the euory of the Eads bridge, and other ( seca a ‘ MRS.

The book {s heartily indorsed by 200 of the leading citizens of St. Louis, who commend it to the business community. Gardens and Country Sport. With its March number, Country Life in America ambitiously undertakes to help one through the mysteries of all kinds of gardening the year round, This ts the sec- ond double number of this beautiful maga- zine dealing with a special subject, the su- perb “‘Christmas Annual of Winter Sports”’ being the first. A new feature of the mag- azine {is a “Traveler's Calendar,'’ which is to tell each month of the placea most at- tractive to the country-lover, and informa- tion for reaching these places will be fur- nished by a new and i well-worked-out plan. With the Detectives. Fergus Hume has not lessened his repu- tation as a writer of good detective stories by his latest, “A Coin of Edward VII.”’ The present volume bears an easily recog- nized relationship to Mr. Hume's other stories, and comes as near to being real lit- erature as detective stories can well be ex- pected. it is, to say the least, interesting, and Mr. Hume tells his tales in a clever manner.

MANIPULATED CHICAGO STARTS DECLINE IN CORN Well Sustained C.dles and Fear of Crop Damage Early Features in Wheat— Armour Selling Corn. Grain. What had started out as though another bull movement, or bear movement, as you care to term HM, as the movement would princiually be that of shorts climbing out, but the movement at any rate in wheat was hipped before it had gotten much headwuy ona collapse in corn. After that nothing but weakness Was featured in all the speculative grain markets and they so ciosed practically, too, at bottom rateg for the day. J. Ogden Armour in the role of a bear smashing a manipulated market Was the star of the day afier he started his club swinging act in the Chicago corn market. Whether he became jeaious of the Cudahy und other hog-meat men’s deal and wanted to show that when it came to manipulation he was the only manipulator, the fact remains that he ‘didn’t do a thing’’ to corn, as the sports would say. In wheat a “little greén bug’’ of the 1901 brand that cleane out whole fields of wheat and oats in Texas, some well sus- tained cables and taik of a freeze had set something of a bull gait on the market, but corn pulled the props out from under when it fell. Oats were unfavorably at- fected alsv. WHEAT—Again had Liverpool responded very siightly to an American decline, this the foreign morning's cabies reporting market only %d lower, which Is indicative that not so much bearishness was {eit there as in the speculative centers of our own country. There was, too, an advance of %c in Paris. In conjunction with these cables was freezing weather in Kansas, which might come eastward, though con- ditions dia not so favor, the receipts here but 26,400 bu, ainst 36.900 bu one year ago, and decrease in the local stock for week probable for 260,000 bu. And then it was the last day of the week, when evening u trades for over Sunday are usually general. At any rate there was notable in the St. Louis grain pit this morning quite an ar- Gent desire to buy, the demand coming largely from shorts, one of the bear trac- ers being quite a conspicuous buyer for a time, and the May option principally sought afier. That opened 4c betier at t%c and sold up to o9c. The new crop option, how. ever, being freely offered on the early ad- to seil. It vance, the bears being keen opened %@ ic up at of/%c, sold at 67%& Ginc to Gi%@6T%c and then declined to ®5,c and was offered at G74@o7%c. The “little green bug’ of 1901 put in an appearance tuday, a letter from Texas stating that it was in wheat and as that pest had nearly cleaned out the wheat and oat crop in 1901, created some uneasi- ness and resultant buying. Broomhall’s estimate for only 5,500,000 bu for Europe of the 7,200,000 bu shipped by exporting coun- tries this week, and a good decrease afloat, was bullish, ar. ana May went up to 694%@69%c and July to 67%@68c. Not much change was made for some time until corn took a ‘tumble, the effect so depressing on wheat that may | dec'ined to 68\c and July to O7%@674gc. At close there were buyers at 69%@°9%c and 674:@67%c respectively. Primary receipts today were 861,000 Su. against 398,000 bu one year ago, and for week 2,625,000 bu. against 2,577,000 bu last week and 2,638,000 bu one year ago. Since July they are 217,268,000 bu, against 203,76,- 000 bu for the same period last year and 181,888,000 bu for two years ago. Shipments were 250,000 bu for the day, against 97,000 bu last year and for week 1,046,000 bu, against 925,000 bu last week,. and 701,000 bu a year ago. Clearances in flour and wheat today were 345,000 bu. ash market—Received, 914 sacks andl 23 cars local and 4 cars through. Steady for soft winter samples, the offerings of which small and all good millin grades sold readily, but hard winter dull and weaker. From store, 6000 No 2 red sold at 70c loaded eastside. Sample sales destination were at 74@ ibe for No. 2 red and 73%4c for No. 3 red, but latter worth 74c where choice. Local sales of No. 3 red sold at 72\4@72%c for car and 71%c for sacked lots and No. 4 at MaZ6Sce—choice worth 70c. No. 2 red No. 3 hard sold at 68%@70c and No. 4 at 59%@6€0c. No. 2 hard quotable at 690772c. Quite a large lot of No. 2 red was worked for export and will be taken from the local stock. CORN—The wheat market continued en- tirely too attractive for speculative oper- ators to give much attention to the coarse grains and trading in corn was very light. There were no fresh features to excite speculation and prices were in a perfect rut, without any apparent prospect of get- ting out. Weather Srobablilities were for a continuance of unsettled conditiong though there was a show for colder tem- perature The receipts here were 110,300 uu, against 35,150 bu one year ago. ‘The stock was still decreasing and Liverpoo! Was quiet at \d decline. The only trading in the local market was in May, at 40%¢c, just where it closed yesterday. July had aV- G4+'*nc bid. Later in the day the Chicago declined heavily, due, it was reported, to- heavy Selling for Armour. This break in the late manipulated markets started the loca! \raders to selling and May sold from 40%,c down to 397%sc, closing at 40c asked.

He showed evident leasure at the heartiness of the welcome. he party drove in carriages thr h the thronged and decorated streets to ey Hall, the scene of so many previous func- ticns connected with the South African war. There an address of welcome was presented to Mr. Chamberlain, who, in his reply, warned the country not to overes- timate the results he had achieved. He was confident that the Dutch would here- after loyally take their places as members of the empire, but it could not be expected that the lon record of vacillation and weakness, which led to the war, would wiped out in the twinkling of an eye. ubsequently, Mr. Chamberlain and his arty took a train to London, where a arge crowd awaited their arrival. mier Balfour and presto the whole cabinet were presen wed Waterloo Station to meet Mr. Chramberlai Mrs. Chamberlain comets in for a full share of the wélcome. Special cheers were iven for her. Mr. Chamberlain said of er: “Her companionship has been of the rreatest assistance to me.
