. MARKET REVIEW.
The Dalles, AprillG, 1892.
The past week has evidenced an im
provement in business generally. There
lias been more of an interior movement
in merchandise and a greater activity. '
Prices are unchanged In general lines,
with the exception of a few things.
Sugar is still firm, but the tendancy is
downward, as the great sugar trust is
being shaken by the inauguration of a
to cripple the -control of the ttusts. ' " .
Coffee is still firm with a sligh advance
on best grades. t
The wool market is still lifeless, and
'' seemingly unnoticed. The passage of
the Free Wool bill through the house
with its large vote, is a pointer in the
tuarkets, and buyers will avail them-
selves accordingly that prices will be
far below last year. It is doubtful about
the bill beco ruing a law, but the influ
ence on Eastern markets jeopardizes the
trade alarmingly throughout the whole
wool sections. Some new clips are be
ing' shipped to Portland and San Fran
cisco but with no assurance of favorable
returns.
The grain markets are off on quota
tions, and with few exceptions, look
quite discouraging for better prices until
it is known what the . harvest will be.
At present, the outlook is favorable for
an unusual large yield of wheat this
harvest in America. . In Europe the
season has been unusually backward
and the present prospects point to a
shortage this year, excepting in India,
Bulgarian provinces and the south 'of
France. In America the amount to "be
carried' over on to the next year will be
even larger than that of the past, so
taking all in all, there is. nothing to
. warrant a realization of extreme high
prices, but on the contrary lower mar
kets than our farming population were
favored with last year.
The flour trade in western marketa
has fallen off somewhat, and a decline
of 30 cents per barrel has taken place
within the past month. In this market
no change has taken place in wheat or
flour since last week.
The produce market is quiet, prices

The Fabulous Basilisk.
The basilisk was the most famous of
the many fabulous monsters of medivse
Val folklore. According' to the popular
notion it was hatched by a toad from an
egg laid by the cock of the common
barnyard fowl! In the ancient picture
books it was usually represented as an
eight limbed serpent or dragon, some
times with and sometimes without
wings. Its name is derived from basil -iscos,
meaning a little king, and was ap
plied because the creature was figured
with a circle of white spots on its head
which much resembled a crown. The
cockatrice, a species of basilisk, besides
having a crown possessed a comb which
was an exact counterpart of the cock's.
Pliny assures us that the basilisk had
a voice which "struck terror to the
hearts of men,' beasts and serpents."
The Bible, classes it with the lion, the
serpent and the dragon as one of the most
formidable-- creatures. : Old .-. writers,
Pliny, Bascho and others, say that its bite
was mortal in every case; that its breath
was suffocating, and that no plant would
grow in the vicinity of its lair. Its dead
body was often used, suspended in bel
fries, to prevent swallows from building
there, St. Louis Republic.
pimples.
The old Ides of 40 yean ago was that facial
eruptions wore due to a "blood humor," for
which they gave potash. Thtu all the old Barsa
parillas contain potash, a most objectionable and
drastic mineral, that instead ot decreasing;
actually creates more eruptions. You have no
ticed this when taking other Earsaparillas than
Joy's. It Is however now known that the stom
ach, the blood creating power, is the seat of all
vitiating or cleansing operations.. A stomach
clogged by indigestion or constipation, vitiates
tho blood, result pimples. A clean stomach and
healthful digestion purifies it and they disappear.
Thus Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla is compounded
after the modern idea to regulate the bowels and
stimulate the digestion. Tho effect is Immediate
and most satisfactory. A short testimonial to
contrast the action of the potash Earsaparillas
and Joy's modern vegetable preparation. Mrs.
C. D. Stuart, cf 400 Hajvs St., S. F., writes: " I
have for-yeara had indigestion, I tried a popular
Sarsaparilla but it actually caused more pimples
to break out on my face, Ilcaring that Joy's was
a later preparation and acted differently, I tried
Hand the pimples immediately disappeared."
