Stocks of wheat at Toronto are 239,756 bushels, as against, 217,457 bushels last week and 11,315 bushels a year ago. The world's visible supply of wheat elbowed a larger increase than usual last creek --the increase was 6, 200,000 bushels. There has been a decline of 5c. in Chica- go ;wheat within the past few days, and holders are consequently timid about the **are. Stocks of wheat at Port Arthur and .Vert William are 2,772,643 bushels as against 1,170,972 bushels at the oorree- youdiag date of last year. The Canadian Gazette says that Cana- lise -an horses are being imported into Lon- don in considerable numbers. At a recent sale one animal brought £59, and others 4150, £45 and £44 and downwards 'There is no change in the trade situa- tion at 'Toronto. Business in wholesale %nes has been on the quiet side, which is, perhaps a little disappointing, but the un- seasonable weather may be blamed to some extent for this. The visible supply of wheat In the 'United States and. Canada increased $,f785,000 bushels last week and the total is stow 61,008,000, as against 60,326,000 bushels a year ago, and 82,290,000 bushels two gears ago.

A small, rotary engine of novel design bas been invented by Grant Brambel, of Sleepy Eye. Min., for patent of which H. P. Allen, of London, president of an en gineering syndicate, has offered him $1,600,000. The engine does away entirely with the crank motion of the steam en- gine, a most desirable, but to all intents oilseed purposes an almost impossible thing to do. The engine uses its own plunger for a eut off. The engine is steam tight, and requires no ring packing. It can be made marine type, and of course can be e ither simple or compound. It is not a 'heap machine, although it costs less than stn ordinary engine. It weighs less and vascupies only a fraction of the space of the aaid, style engine. As this week practically closes the sees- aw, of navigation at Montreal, there has 3een a considerable degree of activity in gettiug off shipments of goods to custom- ers on St. Lawrence and Ottawa river points, and some dealers in heavy goods aeport a difficulty in getting freight space :tor orders to be delivered. to Western pointe Last vessels for sea are expected To get away by the 23rd or 24th.

The weeds are from two to free feet high and an old adage is recalled which says that snow will fall deep us the ragweeds are tall. Bank clerks, like other mortals, make Mistakes. Of the packages of paper u itoney sent to the treasury last year for redemption a small number did not con- tain the amount marked neon them. Strangely enough, the surplus amounts exceeded the deficits, the former, in a nominal total of $37,000,000, aggregating $7,500, while the latter came to only $`$000.

ABOUT THE BLOOD IS YOURS PURE? If Pare, You are Safe - Oltlhervwlse You Are In Peril. THE KIDNEYS ALONE Purify the Iliood-No Other Organ Can- Dodd's 8ldney Pills Help and Heat the /Kidneys When Weak and Sere, Is your blood pure? 11 it is, you are fit for all the duties and enjoyments of life, your eyes will be bright and your thoughts cheerful. If pure you will have good digestion, strong nerves, and your heart will beat ,as regular as a clock. If impure your blood will carry its im- purities along to every nerve, tissue, joint and to every organ of the body; it will carry the seeds of disease, decay and death. And there is only cele way, one means by which it eau be purified, and that is by healthy kidneys, and by them alone. We are, indeed, fearfully an,l wonder fully trade, but we are made just right if we only know how to keep so. It does not matter how these impurities come, their effects are inevitable unless the kidneys are doing honest work twenty- four hours every day. You understand; --there is no other organ that can do the work of the kidneys, and like the heart, they must keep right at it, tired or not. But they are too often overworked by our imprudence in eating and drinking; they are disordered by chills, colds, shocks and injuries; and they must be constantly looked to, and sigus of distress promptly heeded. Then, whenever they need help, give then the sovereign. aid of the scientific discovery embodied in the kidney treat- ment of Dodd's Kidney Pills, Drop Cakes ffor Tea. There are so many palatable sorts of tea cakes whioh may be made to serve as a fitting ending to luncheon or tea, among them being the products of the following recipe: Cream two cupfuls of sugar and one-half cupful of butter to• gether.

EDDY'S MATCHES. No Lady No matter how perfect her complexion or how fine of texture her skin may be can afford to be wichout some sort of preservative in these windy and trying autumn days. Preservatives are neces- sary to the skin no matter what anyone says to the contrary. To rail against them is about as sensible as to refuse to acknowledge that food and rest are needed to preserve the strength and to restore wasted tissues. Yet so careless are many people that they go about iu all weathers with nothing to lessen the in- jurious effects of sun and wind till a day comes, when desiring to look particularly well, they suddenly realize that the fine, close skin has become coarse of texture; the delicate color a hard, unsbifting red; the oyes, nose and mouth surrounded by a network of almost invisible lines soon to become wrinkles; the charm gone, and themselves forced into using paints, pow- ders and pencils in the evenings and the thickest of veils in the daytime. This hard experience can be avoided by using Peach Bloom Skin Food, which is posi- tively the best preparation for the skin. More than this, any lady who is troubled with skin blemishes that may have defied all efforts to remove them will find a sure remedy in Peach Bloom. It acts like magic upon the skin, soothes all itchiness or irritation after a single application and has a permanently beneficial effect upon the skin. Indeed there is no unnatural condition of the skin, be it merely an un- pleasant itchiness or a serious attack of salt rheum, but what this wonderful skin food will instantly relieve and ultimately euro it. Its wonderful properties are best appreciated by those who are most particular as to their appearance. Odor of relnt. The smell of paint is not only unplea- sant, but deoldedly unhealthy. Few peo- ple know that there is a very simple way M removing the odor of a newly -painted room. Take a bucket of water and in It put a handful of bay. Let .this stand in the rooin, and in a few hours the smell will have entirely disappeared. Dearness' Cannot be Cured by local applications, asthey cannot t reach the diseased portion of the ear. *there is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by eonetltu- tional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an in- flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets In- flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed Deaf- ness is the result, and unless the inflammati:m can be taken out and this tube restored to ite normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine eases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothhtg but an inflamed con- dition of the mucous surfaces.

The name wheat is derived from a Saxon word, "Hwaete," signifying white, because the flour from this grain is lighter in color than that from any other. Chapped Hands. The daintest preparation for curing and preventing chapped hands is Peach Bloom. This admirable skin tonic may be relied upon as a specific for all kinds of skin troubles as well as for improving and beautifying the complexion. Colic and Kidney Difficulty—Mr. J. W. Wilder. S.P., Lafargeville, N.Y., writes: "I am subject to severe attacks of Colic and Kidney Difficulty, and find Parme- lee's Pills afford me great relief, while all other remedies have failed. They are the best medicine I have ever used." In fact so great is the power of this medicine to cleanse and purify, that diseases of al- most every name and nature are driven from the body.
