It Is reported that farmers about this
vicinity are shipping car loads of toma
toes to Maryland to the canning factor

tion by those who h'ave In mind the es

place. There Is apparently no reason
why such an Industry would not meet
with great success In this valley. It
13 certainly necessary that a factory
bo properly equipped with modern
machinery and It be managed by the
best of labor In the coming business,
that first-class goods bo turned out.
The excellent home market would un
doubtedly give a ready patronage to
such an industry.

MICHAEL EDEN.
Writes n Letter to Dr. Hnrtmnn,
Columbus, Ohio.
Michael Eden, Keokuk, Iowa, In a
recent letter to Dr. Hartman, says:
"Your medicine is not gold or silver,
but the health of life; and health 13
worth more than gold. We have had
your Almanacs for years. My wife
was ailing, and I told her to try Pe-ru-na.
She replied that one Almanac said
one thing and the others another
thing. That she did not know wheth
er Pe-ru-na was any better than other
medicines. But I told her to go to town
and get some Pe-ru-na, which she did.
My wife began to take it immediately,
and In two or three days she began to
talk differently, and say that the medi
cine did her good. In a week she was
able to do the work. After that she
had a sick spell, and Pe-ru-na cured
her again. The doctors charge from $2
to $5 a visit to ride out In the country;
they get their money, but the sick one
Is not well. But a bottle of Pe-ru-na,
which costs $1, restores the health.
My wife was thin, feeble, no appetite,
everything hurt her, cramps.headaches
and stitching. But Pe-ru-na put every
thing In order. We keep Pe-ru-na al
ways In the house."
R. Helser, a popular druggist of
Keokuk, confirms the above letter, as
follows: "Mr. Michael Eden requests
me to state that his wife suffered six
or seven years with severe pain In the
stomach, and that your famous Pe-ru-na
cured her entirely."
Dr. Hartman's latest book, for wo
men only, sent free for a short time,
by The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
company, Columbus, Ohio.
HOW HE GOT IT.
From tho Cleveland Recorder.
Booker T. Washington, the colored ora
tor, in a recent speech 'told a yuTn of an
old negro who wanted a Christmas dinner
and prayed night after night: "Lord
Please send a turkey to this darkey." But
nono came to him. Finally he prayed:
"Oh, Iord, please send this darkey to a
turkey." And ho got one that samo
night.
THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review
New York, Sept. 21. The reactionary
spirit resumed lull sway today In tho
stock market after a brief period of high
er prices during tho morning, dun .to sym
pathy with Sugar, which advanced at
one time 2 points over last nlghii. close.
Sugar's strength was due to 'tho belief
that tho treasury deppartment would de
cide that Holland was In effect paying
an export bounty on sugar ami that the
countervailing duty would therefore ap
ply to Du.tch refined susars. The rise In
Sugur and fconic strength manifested by
Manhattan served to ralso tho general
level of prices to a fractional extent, but
proved Inadequate to sustain them, and
tho fall for the remainder of tho day was
practically continued, though more rapid
at some times than others. There was
nothing In tho ncwa of tho flay to ac
count for tho decline, .all tho reports of
railroad earnings continuing to show
largo Increase and advices of the growth
of business activity being uniformly en
couraging from all points. Tho outside
public, however, had apparently ceased
to buy and the large bull operators were
no longer willing to accept heavy offer
ings of stocks made to them. 1'rotlt tak
ing was tho featuo of tho day. The mar
ket was dull compared with the recent
tone, but the decline was nevertheless un
checked. The bear Interest was well de
fined and was constant In activity during
the duy. Total sales were 021,200 shares.
