THE MARKETS.
Wnll .Street llavlnw.
Now York, Jan. H. The course of to
day's stock market was decidedly Irregu
lar and somewhat perplexing so far as a
perception of the general tone of specu
lation was concerned. As the duy prog
t eased tho luck of FUstnlntnc power In
tdrength of special stocks, which has been
thu niurkcd characteristic of tho market
for several days past, came to bo moro
and more felt. The disposition to watch
closely for slcns of u traction became
moro marked and the final hour saw a
very general throwing over of holdings by
professional traders. Thorn was no spe
cial news to account for the break and It
was probably duo for tho most part to
technical conditions. Stocks which have
been recently prominent tor strength
weVo conspicuous In today's break by
reabon of prollt taking. There was a feel
ing of moro or less uneasiness also over
the tono of the news from Havana In le
g.ird to what Is expected inther than
what has happened. Tho fear that tho
Spanish government's schemo of reform Is
on the point of breaking down Is coupled
with tho apprehension that the tlmo Is
Imminent when Intervention by tho
t'nlted States to save the island from nn
ntchy will bo Impeiatlvu. Tho persistent
weakness of Sugar, a moro or less domi
nant factor by rouson of the volume of
trading In it, also helped to break tho
ninikct. Total sales were L7.C0O shares.

From tht - A'ew Era,"
Uotheri whd liavo young rlauslitcrs of
school age should watch their health mors
carefully than their studies. Tho proper
development of their body Is of tho first im
portance. After the conflncrupnt of the
school room, plenty of out-of-door exercise
should be taken. It Is better that their
children never lenrn their a.b.o'a, than that
by learning them they lose their health.
But all this is telf.cvldcnt. Kveryone

for her, and tried all the doctors who we
thought could do her any good, but without
result.
"There was an old family friend near
Milford who bad a daughter afflicted tht

oamo here one day to spend Sunday, and
they told us about their daughter's case. It,
wus very much like Luoy's, and they advised
us to try Dr. Willlams'Pink Pills for her.
We had no faitb In thera, but were finally
persuaded to try the pills. Wo hava never
been sorry for It. They helped her at once,
and by the time she had taken eight boxes
of the medicine she was entirely oured.
She took the last dose in April, and has not
been bothered since. She is now stronger
than ever, weighs ten pounds more than ever
before, and her cheeks are full of color.
She ran now gratify her ambition to study
