palfron tliero is danger. It is liver
trouble. Tho liver is one of tho most im

human health and happiness, When tho

Tho anthracite coal trade presents little
change. Tlio rigorous restriction to keep out
pu' down to market requirements continues
anil the allotment for all the, companies for
March lias been fixed at 2,500,000 tons, the
same amount originally fixed for Februaiy,
although tho actual February output was
about 11,700,000 tons. Comparatively few new
orders are being received, for tho weather
continues generally mild and thus does not
promote additional censiimptlon. There was
a moderately cold wavu last week in the
West, but it does not seem to havo had much
effect beyond aiding in tlio better main
tenance uf prices at tlio leading Western
cities and imparting a little more spirit to the
ileinaud at Chicago. The scarcity of chest
nut coal is a feature in the trade, and this is
aiding tho sale of pea coal.
