Glasgow Officials Are Thrifty. Electric motor dust carts are projected by the Glasgow municipal authorities, and until they are ready oil motors will be used. Economy is the j object In view. For the collection of waste paper the city fathers organized ’* a uniformed boys’ brigade, which collects eighteen tons per week and reports a profit of SI,OOO per annum. The wastefulness of the housewife and the economy of the corporation are well illustrated by the fact that the boilers at the three largest stations of the cleansing department are fired and the machinery driven solely by the use of cinders, which are thrown out from I dwelling houses and saved by scavengers from the accumulated waste. A WOMAN’S HEART. Mr*. Samuel G. Dyer Tells a Harrowh lug Tale of Suffering. McCarron, Mich., April B.—(Special.) ,—Mrs. Samuel G. Dyer of this place Jias given the following interesting letter for publication: “For years I suffered intense pain in the region of the heart. I doctored with the best physicians. Some of them would, relieve me for a short time, but the pain always returned. My heart was so bad that I would have to sit up in bed for hours, to get relief. I would lie awake almost all night. I am 62 years of age, and no one can under--4 stand how much I suffered with this Heart Trouble. “About a year ago I heard of Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and commenced to use them. From the first my condition improved. The pain in my heart gradually grew less, and my general health much better, and now I can shy positively that lam entirely cured. I can sleep all night, and enjoy almost perfect health. .1 thank God for the cute that has come to me through the use of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. ' ‘T have thought long over the matter of giving this letter for publication, and am doing so now without any solicitation whatever, and simply because I feel it to be my duty to express the profound 1 gratitude I feel for my re- \ covery, and to Jet others who may be suffering as I was know how they may find 1 a cure. I know that nothing else but Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured me, because I have taken no other medicine for over a year. I feel better now than I have for many years, and It is all due to the use of Dodd’s Kidney Pills.” Mrs. Dyer’s case and its cure has attracted a great deal of attention, and her letter is a splendid tribute to the curative properties of Dodd’s Kidney ' Pills - Before Christianity was introduced into India lepers were inhumanly treated. Food was denied them and many of thern were buried alive. ABSOLUTE SECURITY. ' ■■■■■■■■ Genuine Carter’s Little Liver Pills.

'Wanoa? ~| With the exception of a 1181 YOrk lightly firmer tone to the l___(money market there naa been no appreciable change in general] conditions this week. In nearly all lines, of trade the same degree of activity and> strength that has been heretofore noted, continues to prevail, and the outlook is regarded by authorities as about all that could be reasonably desited. Reports from the iron and steel centers are. of a, favorable character, and as this business is looked upon as a fairly reliable index to general trade the prevailing sentiment naturally is an optimistic one. This confidence in the future continues to be strongly reflected in the stock market, where further additions to the values of several securities have been reeprded thisj week. Some of the leading commission, houses that until recently have been consistently bullish are, however, beginning to take a more conservative stand. In, their opinion there has been too much of a buying rush on the part of the public, and enthusiasm in that quarter is likely to lead to overloading and a congested condition of the market. Furthermore, it is manifestly out of the question for. prices to go one way indefinitely, and it is felt that after a five-month period of, almost continuous advance, during which many stocks have been sent to a 3% and. 4 per cent investment basis, the limit of] intrinsic worth has been very nearly! reached, and that the situation calls for the exercise of considerable caution on the part of intending buyers. r " Features of the week’s fill IfTI fid speculative business on the Board of Trade have been the activity and strength of the corn and provision markets and the apathy and sluggishness of wheat. At the close of business, while wheat was practically the same price it was at the end of the week preceding, both corn and provisions showed considerable improvement. Wheat; speculators appeared to regard th’e cur-' rent price for May delivery of that cereal as high enough under existing conditions, with expectation of a somewhat lower range should the present excellent outlook for the next winter wheat crop be maintained. Exports of wheat and flour to the United Kingdom and continent of] Europe continue heavy, but the ability to; meet all such demands, as well as the] calls of all kinds for domestic require-, ments, without reducing in any marked, degree the visible supply leads to the; conclusion that the battle over the price, at which last season’s crop, should be sold; practically has been fought, and the next, radical change must be oh the general] outlook for the coming season’s produc-; tion. Everything in the latter direction looks hopefully for the industrious cultivators of the fields and dubiously for those who are buying July wheat at current prices. Speculation, which is so dormant in the wheat market, is active and widespread regarding the value of, corn. A rise of 2)4 cents a bushel in the] price of May delivery from the close of] the previous week shows conclusively in. Which direction the weight of opinion; tended. Receipts of corn in the West have been small and are likely to con-; tinue so until some progress shall have been made with spring work on the farms. The bulls for the time being •have complete control. There seems to, be no reason why prices should not go] still higher should the dominant party conclude to push its advantage. Provis-] ions were benefited by the advancing tendency of corn and a continuing good con-, sumptive demand for the products, notwithstanding their increasing price. / ■ AGUINALDO TAKES THE OATH. Insurgent Leader Swears Allegiance to the United States. i Aguinaldo has taken the oath of alle-. giance to the United States. The announcement xyas officially made by Secretary of War Root. This act of Aguinaldo’s will greatly simplify matters and will relieve the American government from an embarrassing situation. Ever since his capture by Gen. Funston the disposition of the troublesome, insurgent was a puzzling question and, one for which the Washington authorities had no solution. A punishment for the leader was necessary which would not make a martyr of him and at the same time it was imperative that he be placed where he could do no further harm find where there was no chance for him to escape and again raise a rebellion. By taking the oath of allegiance Aguinaldo so binds himself that if he ever again attempts to stir up discontent among the Filipinos he will make himself liable to punishment by death, and there will be no extenuating circumstances as there were in the present case. The realization of this is expected to keep Aguinaldo in restraint. The Filipino leader’s action is regarded as the culmination of the insurrection. . . Odd* and Ends.

THE BEST HE EVER SAW. A Missourian Pronounces on the Farming Possibilities of Western Canada. Just at present considerable interest Is being a roused Th the fact that a few new districts (of limited acreage) are being opened out by the Canadian government in Saskatchewan and Assini boia (Western Canada), and any information concerning this country is eagerly sought Mr. W. R. Corser, of Higginsville, Lafayette County, Mo., was a delegate there during last summer, and, writing of his impressions, he says: “I found surprising yields of grain of all descriptions. One farmer I. visited threshed off 175 acres: “Six hundred bushels of wheat from fifteen acres, forty bushels to the acre. “Six hundred bushels of barley from ten acres, sixty bushels to the acre. “Fifteen thousand bushels of oats from 150 acres, 100 bushels to the acre. “The samples were all No. 1. “I also saw a considerable number of stock. Swine do well and there is no disease among them. They are a good source of income to the farmer. The cattle on the range beat anything I ever saw. Fat and ready for beef, fully matured and ripened on the nutritious grasses of the prairie. lam firmly convinced that this country offers better facilities for a poor man than any I have ever seen.” Information concerning these lands can be had from any agent of the government, whose advertisement appears elsewhere.
