TILE 4�1 Topics (� wEEK'yTheround-the-worldnlissionariss1 opics ofi �E the W. C.T.U., who recently resigned on EXETER 'ADVOCATE, HERE THURSDAY. NOV. 11, 1897. 1 The. Week's Cemmereial Snlumary. The world's supply of wheat increased l 4,313,000 bushels last week. The stock of wheat in Toronto is 51,- 542 bushels as compared with 38,5771 bushels last week and 237.973 bushels a year ago. The earnings of Canadian Paciflo for the week ended Ootuber 1. were$619,000, or an increase of $135,000, as compared with the corresponding week of last year. Trade in wholesale departments at Toronto has been fairly active during tbee week. In dry goods, however, business is retarded by the mild weather. Prices of the leading staples are firm, woolen goods especially. The provision markets are weaker. In Liverpool and Chicago there has been a good deal of selling, especially of lard. In Toronto dressed hogs are $6 far the best, and live hogs lower at 4 3-8 to 4,3o per pound for the best. Wheat is moving freely at Ontario points and prices are higher. Red win- ter brings 82 to 83eee high freights; white wbeat 78 to 79o, and spring 78o for No 2 east. No 1 Manitoba hard is nominal at $1.03 to $1.04, Toronto freight, The visible supply of wheat in the United States and Canada increased 99,000 bushels last week, and the total is now 24,629,000 bushels as against 7,285,000 bushels a year ago. The amount afloat to Europe increased 800,- 000 busbels last week, and the total is 26,800,000 bushels as against 31,120,000 bushels a year ago. Combined the total is 51,429.000 bushels as against 88,405,- 000 bushels a year ago a decrease of 36,- 976,000 bushels, Business at Montreal is barely as active as a week or two ago, but is de- cidedly better than a year go at this time, while as regards collections the reports from all lines of trade are of a very favorable character, and the situa- tion in this respect is incomparably ahead of last fall, Failures, too, are few, and comparatively insignificant in character. The wheat harvest of 1897 is being marketed more rapidly than is usual. The farmers of Alanitoba„ in the ab- sence of farm granaries, have not the same opportunities of holding grain that tbe Ontario farmers pnssess,nor are their energies taxed in the same way with, root crops and fall sowing in the early autumn. As a rubs early in offering their grain to the merchants, with ex- ceptionally favorable harvest weather and the attractions of high prices, farm- ers of Manitoba and the Territories have this year exceeded their past records in this connection. It is estimated that about one-third of the Manitoba wheat crop of 1897 has already been ' marketed. Between 3,500,000 and 4,000,000 bushels of wheat are stored in interior elevators at various country points, nearly 1,250,- 000 bushels are in the Fort William elevators, and an equal quantity has been shirped east from that port since the movement of new grain began, mak- ing a total of about 8,000,000 bushels that have been marketed by the western farmers. The shipments to the Fort Wil- liam elevators are averaging about 100, - UO bushels a day. The wheat crop of Ontario is coining from primary hands more slowly; merchants estimate that deliveries to date amount to between 15 and 20 per cent. of the total yield. The quality of the first offerings was very inferior, and was a disappointment to merchants. But later offerings have shown a steady improvement. From the other Provinces, reports are received that wheat crop deliveries are in excess of the usual quantity offered at this season of the year.—Monetary Times.

Easy to Do When You Know .tow, Writing on "How I Do. My Tricks," in the Ladies' Homo Journal, magician Starry Kellar explains how to accom- plish the difficult feat of blowing a piece of cork into a bottle—a triok that will defy every one who does not know the only way by which it can be done. "Ask. some one," Mr. Kellar dlreots, "if ho thinks he can blow a small bit of cork, which you have placed in the mouth of a bottle, so that it will go into the bottle. Lay the bottle on the table upon its side, and. place the bit of Bork about an inob or less inside the open end. He will blow uutil he gets red in the face, and the cork will invariably come out of the bottle instead of going into it. Simple reason for it, ton; the direc- tion of the air, forced by the one blow- ing, brings it againstthe bettoau at the bottle. The air compresses within the bottle's walls and must find outlet, therefore is turned and forced out at the only. vent the bottle has, necessarily blowing the pork out with it. But take a common lemonade straw, plane the end of it near the cork in the bottle neck,blow a ow very gently --and the pork rolls in." Minard's Liniment the best. Hair Restorer. There never was, and never will be, a universal panacea, it: one remedy, for all ills to which flesh is heir—the very nature of many curatives being :nob that were the germs of other and differently seated diseases rooted in the system of the patient—what would relieve one ill in turn would aggravate the other.

THE OLIN GAS 'ENGINE CO.. Buffalo, N. Y, Gents :—The 20 h.p. Gasoline Engine you placed in my mill last September is giving perfect satisfaction, in fact it is doing a great deal better than I expected it could, I find it a great saving in expense over steam, as it requires no care whatever after starting and steam requires an engineer. I also find it runs with Mess expense for gasoline than a steam engine requires for fuel. It is a very powerful machine, iii fact, we have never used the full power of the engine, and grind 70 bushels per hour right along. I think I have the best, feed mill in the State with the Olin to drive it, It will give me pleasure to recommend it to anyone contemplating putting iu power. Very Truly Yours, L. L. Jg12oME.
