BARLEY The vagaries of call trading
sadly upset values in the sample market.
Holders of Feed are anxious to realize the
full figure of the day, and as $1.03 ctl
was bid at the call session for any part of
a thousand tons, seller 1884 delivery, it
would seem reasonable to suppose that, if
wholesale lots were worth such a price,
certainly retail parcels as exhibited on the
tables ought to bring at least $1 ctl.
Yet dealers quote No. 1 Feed at 92i95c,
claiming that buyers will not give more.
Brewing is moderatively active and steady
at a range of S5c$1.10 ctl. In Cheva

for values. Shippers are not disposed to

A FASTING GIRL.
In Cincinnati a sixteen-year-old girl re
cently died after a fast of fifty-two days.
She had been attacked by something like
paralysis which rendered it impossible for
ner to take nourishment. The human sys
tem cannot thrive without good food and
good ability to digest it. Weak and im
paired digestion is rectified by Brown's
Iron Bitters better than any other tonic
in the world. Mr. J. E. Freeberg, Pom
eroy, Iowa, says: "I used Brown's Iron
Bitters for dyspepsia and poor appetite;
completely cured me." It will cure you.
