THURSDAY, OCT. 29, 1890. The Week's Commercial Summary. The world's visible supply of wheat increased aver 6,300,000 bushels during the past. week. Sterling exchange is steady, the posted rates being $4.85 ou demand, and '$4.82 for CO day bills. The earnings of the Grand Trunk Rail- way are more satisfactory, the increase for the first week in October being $13,782. The tone of British wheat markets is very strong, and the export demand continues good. Wheat in Chicago is 10c. per bushel higher than a year ago. The stocks of wheat at Port Arthur and Fort William are steadily declining until now they are less than at this time ayear ago. The figures are 1,044,000 bushels as against 1,220,000 bushels a year ago. The imports of gold from Britain con- tinue. It is estimated that about $5,000,- 000 is ou the way to New York. Owing to the heavy decreases in bullion in Bawl: of England, some predict an advance in the discount rate this week. The October Government report esti- mates the yield of wheat iu the United States at 11.9 bushels per acre, as compared with 13.7 bus eels last year. The total production is placed at 412,000,000 bushels. The American Agriculturist places the yield at 470,000,000 as against 400,000,000 bushels in 1893. There is rather a more cheerful feeling appareut in Montreal business circles. The movement of merchandise is some- what freer, though it can hardly be called brisk, and some houses report money as coming in a little better, though improve- ment in this respect is not geueral. Cheese shipments ,last week were heavy, over 100,000 boxes, and they are likely to continue so for the remaining four or five weeks of open navigation; the market in this line, as well as butter, shows steadi- ness. A match has just been invented by an English genius which promises to become a formidable rival to the present match in general use. The idea of the invention is based ou the pian of rolling up paper and lighting at a flame already in exist- ence. The paper is immersed in wax, steariae and similar substances, and burns with a light, smokeless and. odorless flame. Cut into match lengths, it is dipped into phosphorous wax, like the common wax match. The invention is regarded as a timely one, as the wood used in the making of matches is con- stantly growing store scarce and costly. The trade situation at Toronto is appar- ently without change. The steady advanc- ing prices of _rain tend to create a better feeling, which, however, is offset by competition in trade and the financial embarrassment of a large woolen house. This failure following so closely upon that of a large millinery .louse has naturally a bad effect and the trade are suspicious. Both these disasters are attributed to the underselliug of goods and the difficulty of making collections, Their misfortunes are also attributed to the large depart- mental store trade carried on in this city. Doing business on the "cash" principle has many advantages. One of these is low prices, and wholesale dealers of limited financial backing cannot necessarily com- pete and keep afloat, Here and There. It is said that October weddings are becoming almost, as numerous as June weddings. Let this movement continue until the weddings of every month are as numerous as the weddings of June. According to the Jewish calendar the 5,657th year since the creation of the world began last week. But Li says the world began at least 9,000 years ago in China. What does it matter who is right? The latest fashionable sport in Newport is for a man to play fish with a line at- tached to his waist and a man tuggiug at an ordinary fishing rod to land his game. But the fun of baiting and hooking the game is all lost. A butcher has been arrested in San Francisco for selling sausage filled with air and weighted with pebbles. It prob- ably will go hard with him, as California has a state law prohibiting swindlers from practising "skin" games. The removal of what is known as the iron gates of the Danube was begun by the old Roman emperor Trajan 2,000 years ago. The Austrians have just com- pleted the job. The Austrians move slow, but they get there just the same. Mrs. Hetty Green says that she is so rich that she dares not indulge openly in charity as she would like to do for fear of being so hounded that she will be un- able to do even as much as she does. Gan it be that too touch money finally makes the po^,-esnr afraid to be charit- able? There never was, and never will be, a universal panacea, in one remedy, for ail ills to which flesh is heir—the very nature of many curatives being such that were the germs of other and differently seated diseases rooted in the system of the patient—what would relieveaone ill, in turn would aggravate the other. We have, however, in Quinine Wine, when obtainable in a sound unadulterated state, a remedy for many and grievous ills. By its gradual and judicious use, the frailest systems are led into convales- cence and strength, by the influence which Quinine exerts on Nature's own restoratives. It relieves thedrooping. spirits of those with Whom a chronic state, of morbid despondency and lack of interest lie life is'a disease, and, by tran— quilizing t}e nerves, disposes to sound. and refreshing' sleep—imparts vigor to the action of the blood; which, being etimulated, courses throughout the veins, strengthening the healthy animal functions of the system, thereby making activity a necessary result, strengthening the frame, and giving life to the diges- tive organs, which. naturally demand increased substance—result, improved appetite. Northrop & Lyman of Toronto, have given to the public theirpsuperior Quinine Wine at the usual rate, and, gauged by the opinion of scientists, this wine approsohes nearest perfection of Aug in the market.

AVOID CRAVE DANGERS Hover Neglect Your Trouble in Its Minor Forms --Never Despair at Any Stagg— Dodd's kidney Pills Always Cure. e It is far easier to prevent than to cure the serious forms and complications of kidney disease. We don't say this because we doubt the efficacy of Dodd's Kidney Pills, but it is better to avoid the wear and tear by cur- ing at the minor stage with a single bop. The dangers of every sufferer are of a three -fold nature: Not to know what ails; to neglect when he knows; and to despair when everyone says he is going to die. If you are not posted in the symptoms of kidney disease write to the Dodd's Medicine Company. Toronto, Ont., for their Calendar for 1S97. It will cost you only a postal oard and is worth a hun- dred. If you suffer and neglect kidney dis- ease; remember that nineteen out of every twenty deaths result from this dis- ease and that every such death is pre- vented by using Dodd's Kidney Pills. To those who suffer and despair of cure, we briefly say: We have never yet heard of Dodd's Kidney Pills failing to cure. We have letters from more than a thousand who were cured when given up by physicians and friends, We have pub- lished many scores of such letters and the writers ane still living in health and comfort, • Over one hundred thousand persons in. Canada have been cured of kidney dis- ease in its simpler forms—cured by from one to three boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills. Dodet's Kidney Pills will cure any kid- ney disease. If in need of kidney treat- ment don't permit yourself to buy any- thing short of the original and genuine.

HEALTH'S PARADISE Retained After Twenty Years' Torture From That Dread Disease, Catarrh— Hon. Geo. Taylor of Scranton, Pa., Tells the World What Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder Has Done For Itiui. I was a martyr to catarrh for twenty years—tried every known remedy, but got little or no relief. Was troubled with constant dropping in the throat, terrible pains in luy head, and my breath was very offensive. I was induced to give Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder a trial, and the result was magical. :The first applica- tiou cleared my head instantly. I per- sisted in its use, and to -day I am 0 cured mau, and it affords me pleasure to feud my testimony. No Doubt of It. Miss Leftover—There is a saying. "Love me, love my dog."

Chronic Derangements of the Stomach, Liver and Blood, are speedily removed by the active principle of the ingredients entering into the composition of Parme- lee's Vegetable Pills. These Pills act specifically' on the deranged organs, stimulating to action the dormant energ- ies of the system, thereby removing disease and renewing life and vitality to the afflicted. In this lies the great secret of the popularity of Parmelee's Vegetable Pills. Discounted Job's Record. "Aw," said Billy, the burglar, "what's this yer givin' us.

'Another tri.amph of mind over matter, says a late despatch from Loudon, is a real and satisfactory triumph, and one which bids fair to revolutionize the trade, in Lancashire; and to give full work to all the weaving machinery there which has been kept idle, or half employed, for so long on account of the heavy duties on Indian cotton. Facts, as everyoue knows, are and probably always will be, stranger than fiction, but it seems almost impos- sible to believe that any luster or dura- bility can exist in silk made, as we are assured it largely is now, not from the thread. spam by the warns, which has long had the monopoly of the business, but from uothiug more or less than plain commonplace timber. Yet it is the fact that many of the gorgeous and brilliant silks displayed in our best and most fashionable shops are pure and simple "wood silks," and ladies in Loudon and Paris are wearing dresses and hats trim- med with the new silk, under the firm conviction that it has beeu produced by the orthodox silk worth. Up till lately "timber silk" has only been manufactured in France, at a huge factory at Besancon, under patents held by Count Ililaire de Chandonn et who discovered the process, but within the last twelve months, the demand has far exceeded the powers of this factory to supply. The material has been thoroughly examined, and proved to be a splendid substitute for silk. A com pany has been formed for manufacturing it in this country, and already six of our principal weaving firms have come for- ward and undertaken the output. The factory of this company, which is to cost £30.000, is to make the yarn and pass it on to existing factories to be woven, and one of the chief points considered is that the iudustry should be wholly English. 40 GEMS, 10 CENTS.
