Other features are the fading of war

the highest prices for wheat since 1898,
due to Increased milling demand for
home and foreign requirements and a
greatly oversold Map option' at ' Chi

for corn, oats, cotton, coffee, leather,
hides, tin. and copper "with partial re
actions in the last two. Silk goods

Dear Sirs For ten year. I had been almost a, cripple from rheumatism, and frequently waa in such a con
dition that I could hardly get around. On June 9 I came to Medical Lake to try the hot baths. Was al
most helpless at that time. On account of cold, bad weather during June, took only a few Medical Lake
baths. Later, the weather warming up, t begun the treatment in earnest, and. at this writing,, August 8,
consider myself entirely well. The hot water baths in Medical Lake water have done business for me.
Before coming to this place I spent several hundred dollars with physicians and for various remedies but
received no benefit until I tried Madical Lake water. , THOS. BELL, Spangle, Wash.
