The Week's COMnierelal Summary,
The stook of -wheat in Toronto is now
15,850 bushels a.s against 11,170 b ishels
last week, and ts8.0 0 bushels at the cor-
responding date of last year.
The visible atipply of wheat in the
United Stateand k amide, inereascd.
1,064,0 ,0 bushele laet week, and the total
now 41.,8320 00 bushels as compared
will 78,601,000 a year ago, and M1,169,-
000 bushels two year. ago, Wheat &that
o E trope 28,810,000 bushels as against
25,9.80,0./0 a year ago.
Wheat receipts at pointa along the
Canadian Pacific for the month of Sep-
tember show a great falling off as com-
pared with the same month ot 1894. Re-
ceipts at Winnipeg last month were
1,995,500 bushels, as against '2,994,470
* for September last ever. a falling off of
nearly a million bushels. Delay in the
threshing and the disposition of farmers
to hold wheat are given as causes for
light receipts.
There were 52 failures in the Dominion
last week, compared to 41 the week be-
fore, and 48 in the same week of a year
ago. Ontario heads the list with 25,
being nearly half the total failures,
nineteen of which had our lowest credit
or blank rating. Quebec had fourteen a
decrease of nine from the previous week,
none of which were of any commercial
importance. New Brunswick had two—
Nova Scotia and British Columbia one
each. None were reported from Prince
Edward Island or Manitoba last week.
The condition of wholesale trade at
Toronto is somewhat improved. In
many lines of business there is an in-
crease in the number of orders received,
and the general feeling is one of confi-
dence. Prices of the leading staples are
very strong. The notable change this
week is the advance in sugars, which is
thought to be legitimate, and which has
stimulated the demand. Granulated are
selling at 4Sc, and yellows at Sic. The
metal market is very firm with business
fairly satisfactory. Galvanized tin is
higher and the general trend in prices
seems to be in that direction. The
higher prices for cotton goods mentioned
last week are fully maintained. There
is a moderate demand. for wheat from
millers and prices are relatively firm at
68c to 64e on the Grand Trunk. Offer -
Ines are restricted, farmers being in-
clriaed to hold for high r prices. The
movement in Manitoba wheat is only
limited by railway facilities.
The public. should bear in mind. that

Hall Caine, the eminent British novel-
ist, at present visiting A.merica, reports
that he often does not sleep at all for as
long as four or five days at a time. Mx.
Caine is an exceedingly intense and ac-
tive man, and this experience possibly
supports the startling theory of Thomas
A. Edison, which holds sleep to be a mere
habit, sprung from lack of employment,
and having its beginnine in the ages
when there was no artiaoiA light to turn
the night into day. Still other persons
than the two mentioned, who are troubled
with insomnia, testify that the chief
terror of that affliction arises from the
mere oppression which consciousness of
an inability to sleep brings,.

THE PAIN IMMEDIATELY LEFT ME.
So Says Mrs. W. T. Rundle, of Dundalk,
After Using Dr. Agnemes Cure for the
Heart.
How difficult it is for those afflicted with
heart disease to eat relief, and to get it
quickly. The pain bangs on, and is sug-
gestive of the most terrible results, for
heart disease cannot be trifled with. Here
was Mrs W. T. Rundle, the wife of is well
known cattle dealer in Dundalk, who
suffered so severely from pain in the re-
gion of the heart that, to quote her own
words: "I was for some time unable to
attend to my household duties I was in -
&toed to try Dr. Agnew's Cure fer the
Heart, and I must say the result was won-
derful. The pain Immediately left me
tater the first de.y, and I have had no
trouble since." Strong testimony, and yet
Mrs. Rundle stands along with thousands
of others who can tap the same thing.
RECEIVED SI 00 WORTH OF GOOD
FROM EACH BOTTLE.
The Words of the Rev. James Murdock, of
St. .Tobri- N. II., Concerning South
American Kidney Cure.
This clergyman neve: spoke triter words.
He had suffered for a long time from kid-
ney trouble'and commenced to think—as
will certainly becionie the case if a remedy
is not seoured—that he was fated to die of
kidney disease. He read the claims Of the
manufacturers for South American Kid-
ney Cure, with scepticism, perhaps. But
he tried the medicine, and felt much bene-
fited within two clays, and • rising his own
language, "I have taken In all four bottles,
and consider that I received $100 worth of
good from each bottle" The figure is not
nearly high enough, for when kidney dis-
ease is not stayed, death quickly follows.
She Had to be Turned in Red With Sheets.
"My wife," says Mr. Thomas Crosbie, of
Lisle, Ont., "was laid up with rheu-
matism for Months, and for two weeks the
pain was so intense that she had to be
turned in bed with sheets. I saw an ad-
vertisen,ent in the Alliston, Opt., Herald,
Raying that South American Rheumatic
Cure would give relief in fifteen minutes,
and quickly cure. I at onoe took the train
for that plaoe, and secured one-half dozen
bottles from Mr. .T.11, Hipsvell, druggist.
My wife began the use of it, and in 24
hours she was out of bed, and has not been
troubled with rheumatism since. This
remedy is a wonder worker, and I believe
will prove a great blessing to anyone suf-
fering from rheumatism."
A Navel Advertising Expedient.
The latest proof of the value of adver-
tising is given by a member of a London
firm, who says: "We recently hit upon
a novel expedient for ascertaining over
-what area our advertisementi were read.
We published a' couple of half -column.
'ads.' in which we purposely misstated
half a dozen historical facts. In less
than a week we received between 300 and
400 letters from all parts of the country,
from people wishing to know why on
earth we kept such a consummate idiot,
who knew so little about English history.
The letters came pouring in for three or
four weeks. It was one of the best pay-
ing 'ads.' we ever printed ; but we did
not repeat our experiment, because the
(Ike I refer to served its purpose. Our
letters came from schoolboys, girls, pro-
fessors. clergymen, school teachers, and,
in two instances, from eminent men who
have a world-wide reputation. I was
more impressed with the value of °Aver-
-tising from those two advertisements
than I should have been by volumes of
theories."
The ,great demand for a pleasant, safe
and reliable antidote for all affections
of the throat and lungs is fully met with
in Biokle's Anti-Constunptive Syrup. It
is a purely vegetable compound, and.
acts promptly and magically in subduing
all coughs, colds, bronchitis, inflamma-
tion of the lunas, etc. It is so palatable
that a chula will not refuse it, and is put
at a price that will. not exclude the poor
from its benefits.
'Know How to Obey.
"Are you married V" asicect the man-
ager to a man who was looking for a
situation.
NTI%nl
sir.' Can't employ you. I have a
place into which I could put you, but we
engage only married men."
"May I ask the reason. for this dis-
crimination? Is it that families neay be
provided with support ?"
"Not at all. 11 16 because we find that
married men know better how to obey
than bachelors."
There is nothing equal to Mother
Graves' Worm Exterminator for destroy-
ing worms. No article of its kind has
given such satisfaction.
A Great Change.
"What has become of Miss Blank, who
was always such a favorite in your
set?"
"Her father failed some weeks ago and
all they had was sold by euetion,"
"Poor thing !"
"And now they have to live in a little
rented house down town."
"What a change! How she must
grieve."
"Yea She is so much changed that
even her best friends would not recog-
nize her. I met her on the street to -day
and. did not know her at all, poor
thing!"

Pins Cured After Other Medieines
*lad. railed,
From the Yarmonth, N.$., Times.
The remarkable cures effected by Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills aave long • been a
matter of newspaper notoriety, and many
of tacm—well described as 1111r/toles—have
been in our own province, but we believe
SO far none have been published from Yar-
mouth A Times representative enquired
In a quarter where such matters would
likely be known, and learned that there
were several remarkable cases of restora-
tion to nealth directly traceable to Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, right in our midst.
Carious to ascertain the facts in relation
thereto, our representative called on Mr.
Charles It Trask, who had been known
to have extierienced a long illness, and
now was apparently le =co lent health. his
cure being attributed to Pink Pills. Mr;
Trask, who has bee an aceountant in
Yarmouth for many years, was in' his
cam on dohn street when the reporter
waited on him.
;tee
r -
Found Mr. Trisk in Lis offi.e.
"Yes," he said, "there can be no pos-
sible doubt of the efficacy of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills iu my case, and I will be pleas-
ed if the publication of the facts helps
some other sufferer back to health. I
caught cold, was careless and caught more
cold. The:first thing I knew I was seri-
ously ill. I could not walk. All strength
seemed to have left my legs and the weak-
ness increased. From being obl.iged to re-
main in the house I became obliged to re-
main in bed, bus still supposed it was but
a very bad cold. I became so helpless I
could not move in bed without help. I
had good attendance and the best of care
and nursing, but as week succeeded week
1 seeemed grow worse instead of better,
till I was worn to a mere shatlow and be-
gan to care very little if I ever recovered.
A hint that I Wai threatened with some-
thing called locomotor ataxia reminded is
friend that ney case seemed similar to
some of those described in the Times,
which had been tamed by Dr Williams'
Pink Pills, and this first drew attention
to them as a possible aid to ine. I admit
that I was skeptical—very skeptical—
there are so many medicines being adver-
tised just now, and I was never much of
a believer in them. Well, Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills were purchased and I took
them, as I suppose I would have taken
anything else, simply as the routine of a
sick ro ins. The first' box seemed to show
little effect, and by the time I had got
through with the third box there could be
no doubt my condition shcisved a marked
improvement, and I was correspondingly
encouraged. The pills were continued and
I became rapidly better, so that I was
able to sit up and go about the house, and
occasionally go out if the weather was
fine. Day by day I grew stronger, and to
make a long story short, I feel I am to-
day in as good health as ever I was in my
life, and I can hardly realize I am the same
man who suffered for six inonths, a help-
less, despondent being, who never expect-
ed to be on his feet again. While I have
no desire for publicity I am quite willing
these facts should be made known for the

ful cures effected throughout the country.
