"The present fall of temperatuie over

ability of its continuance for bomo

The winter climate has deranged, more or
less, the mucous membranes of your whole
body; has produced a catarrhal condition,
not only of your head, throat and lungs, but
quite likely your stomach anddlgcstivc organs,
also. Your appetite Is changeable. Your
food digests poorly. Your blood Is out of
order. You have that "tired feeling." All
this Is due to the catarrhal condition of the
mucous membrane. Systemic catarrh, Dr.
Hartman calls It.
It is time to take Peruna, therefore. It is
time to take n thorough course of Peruna.
Peruna will strike at the cause of all your
troubles by removing the catarrhal condl-
tons. This makes Peruna at once the great-
SUSQUEHANNA.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, Apiil 27. Y'esterda 's show of
strength in stocks was dissipated In the touise
of toda) 'a trading on the evchange. The mar
ket opened quite generilly higher and an
attempt was made to continue the upward rush
in Puins)lvania and Baltimore und Ohio. It
wis ver) soon found however that the gcnei it
demand for stocks was quite insicniticant at
the higher level of prices, ) estcrciav's opera
tions hiving so far diminished the short in
terest that the denund from that source wis
no longer un effective suppoit. In sugar espei
lall.v, cstirday's mgent demand from the
shorts was decidcdl) iilancd. The prue was
inn op after the opening to HOH. but tho real
iiing sales from bu)ers on the recent advance
oveipowciid the stock. It got back once again
above last night's close crd then fill an cx
ticme b with a feverish and uncertain rail
There wns the same absence of authentic news
concerning the stocks as on the ndianee and
its movement was due entirely to technical
causes. The same was true ot the general mar
1 et. The reaction was due to the general re
ogulllon that )esteiday's sharp advance was
due to the general recognition that vesterday's
sharp advance was due to a demand from an
over cvtended short interest. Some effort was
made to combat the reaction by bidding up
ditferent stocks. Tlieie was a show of strength
at dllteient periods in the tobicco stocks, .the
leathel stocks, Brooklvn Transit and Ntvv York
Cintral, but these marouvers proved unavail
ing to held (he imrhet. The op-ning streilgth
