— Threwn From His Cab and Killed, The following is a most interesting and, in Bne respeet, pathetic tale :— | Mm J. Pope, 42 Ferrar Road, Streatham, England, said : “Yes, poor chap, he is gone, dead—horge olted, thrown off his seat on his cab he was driving and killed—poor chap, and a good port too, mate. It v:ashim, you see, who gave me the half-bottle of St. Jacobs Oil that made o new man of me. ‘Twas like this: me and Bowman were great friends. Some gentle- man had given him a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil whioh had done him a lot of good; he only used half the bottle, and remembering that I had been a martyr to rheumatism and sciatica for years, that I had literally t-ied every- thing, had doctors, and all without benefit, I became discouraged, and looked upon it that there was no help for me. Well,”” says Pope, ‘“You may not believe me, for it is a miracle, but before I had used the conients of the half-bottle of St. Jacobs Oil which poor Bow- man gave me, I was a well man. There it is, you see, after years of pain, after using reme- dies, oils, embrocations, horse liniments, and spent money on doctors without getting any better, I was completely cured in a few days. I bought another bottle, thinking the pain might come back, but it did not, so I gave the bottle away to a friend who had a lame back. I can’t speak too highly of this wonderful Jpain-killer.” Rub the inner casing of windows that shove up and down wi with a little hard i soap; treat bureau drawers in the same i way. { Thirty minutes is ‘all the time required to Fe wits PorNam FAperEss Dyes, Sold by ell druggists.

General Trade Conditions. R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of rade says: “A few months ago injury 0 the corn crop aroused fears that the railroads would be seriously handicap- ped by the loss of tonnage, yet the sea- son of grain traffic has not only failed to sroduce decreased earnings, but there is such a scarcity of rolling stock and motive power that numerous industries are badly demoralized. In so far as these interests are concerned the reduc- tion in corn freight proves a blessing. Railway earnings in October were 11.3 per cent. greater than last year and 21.2 per cent. over 18gg, while these roads reporting for the first week of Novem- ber show an average gain of 9.8 per cent. “A healthy demand is reported throughout the country in all leading lines of merchandise, while sales of winter goods have attained normal pro- portions and holiday business promises to surpass all records. “Failures for the week numbered 215 in the United States, against 217 last year, and 27 in Canada, against 33 last vear.” Bradstreet’s says: “Wheat, including flour, exports for he week aggregaté 4,083,734 bushels, as against 5,460,645 last week and 4,062.020 in this week last year. Wheat exports July 1 to date (twenty weeks) aggregate 117,182,652 bushels, as against 70,417,817 fast season. “Corn exports aggregate 629,924 bush- els, as against 708,284 last week and 3,- 976,014 last year.
