MRS. MAUDE BROWN —Photo by National Studio.

Compounded of twenty-nine ingredients, twenty-two of which are the Juices of medicinal roots and herbs, Konjola attacks illness at the source, removing the causes. The Konjola Man at the Hook Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city, can cite many instances of the lasting relief brought by this great compound. See him today. Now read the experience of Mrs. Maude Brown. 628 East Miami street, Indianapolis. who said: ' Ten years ago I began to suffer with my stomach. I had little appetite and food caused gas and severe bloating. My kidneys were sore and weak and night risings were frequent. My limbs and feet often became swollen. Neuritis attacked my arms and shoulders, my liver was weak and I had headaches and dizzy spells. Konjola proved a wonder medicine for me. My appetite increased and the suffering and misery soon left me entirely. It has been 6ix years since I took Konjola and none of my former ailments ever returned.” What Konjola did for Mrs. Brown it has done, and is doing for thousands. Konjola is free from alcohol or harmful drugs. Demand it and get it; don’t be switched to a substitute. The Konjola Man is at the Hook Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city, where is meeting the public daily. Blfree samples given

NEED OF RAIN HOLDS WHEAT TRABESTEADY Profit-Taking Meets Good Support; Corn Mart Trifle Weak. BY HAROLD E. RAINVTLLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, April 16.—With no change in the weather situation in the northwest, and the government crop report pointing to the need for heavy rainfalls at once, wheat held nearly steady op the Board of Trade today. Good support met the profit-tak-ing sales. Liverpool was easy, but there was no pressure. Corn was off a minor fraction at the start, putting up a weak resistance to selling. Oats were unevenly steady, showing some independent strength. News Is Bullish f At the opening wheat was unchanged to M cent lower, with May Vs cent higher, com was % to % cent lower and oats were % cent lower to % cent higher. Provisions were quiet, but tended higher. Liverpool was not as strong ds expected today, profit-taking sales putting the market % cent lower at mid-afternoon. Buenos Aires was % to Va cent lower at the start. Traders regarded the late setback Wednesday as natural. It was due largely to profit-taking induced by the weakness in stocks. Foreign news continues encouraging and is taking hold of sentiment more than for some time. The export sales of 2,000,000 bushels of wheat Wednesday, all Canadian, shows that export countries are feeling the pinch and need wheat to tide them over. Weather a Factor Weather continues the dominant factor in wheat and again there was no change, the northwest still needing moisture in quantities. Corn has been attracting less attention, owing to the activity in wheat. Friends of the market were encouraged by the chartering of boat space for 200,000 bushels of com to go east. Supplies are light and will be further depleted when navigation gets into full swing. Cash houses remain on the buying side of oats. Trade is mostly in the way of removing hedges against sales for shipment. Chicago Grain Table —April 16—• Prev. WHEAT— High. Low. 11:00. close.

STEEL COMMON HITS NEW LOW ON BEAR MOVE Break in Favorite Causes Selling Throughout List.

Average Stock Prices

Average of thirty industrials for Wednesday was 164.66. off 3.77. Average of twenty rails was 90.68. off 1.60. Average of twenty utilities was 65.20, ff 1.33. Average of forty bonds was 95.68. off .06. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, April 16.—United States Steel common stock dipped to anew low since 1927 at 132, off 1% on the Stock Exchange shortly before noon today. A series of swings back and forth occurred after a lower, active opening. Just before noon Steel was back near 133 and other leaders were rising above lows. After the opening, a slight rally occurred, but before the end of the first hour selling again hit the market. Another rally was followed by a break when Steel went below its 1928 low of 132%. Few Shares Rally New lows for the year or longer were made by Vanadium, New York Central, St. Louis-San Francisco, Commercial Solvents and a few others. All groups were hammered. There were a few exceptions to the trend, notably Alaska Juneau, the strong feature of the market. Near noon losses of 1 to more than 3 points noted in such issues as Auburn Auto, United Aircraft, Paramount, U. S. Industrial Alcohol, McKeesport Tin Plate and Westinghouse. Oils were about steady. Rails sagged off, but were not under pressure like that of Wednesday. Utilities generally were off fractions to more than a point. Fox Moves Up On the rising side with Alaska Juneau were such issues as Fox Film A, which was helped by a statement by its president that the dividend would be retained; Pullman helped by declaration of the regular dividend; General Motors helped by a 46 per cent increase in March sales as compared with February; Gillette, Standard Brands and Texas Gulf Sulphur. Freeport Texas broke several points in the early trading, helping unsettle the market. It rallied a point or so from the low. American Can rallied, as did other leaders. Around noon the market was quieter with a fair sprinkling of gains in several sections.

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not,” which appeared in Wednesday’s Times: The Largest Mouth in the World—The owner of the largest mouth in the world was a Baltimore Negro, member of a traveling troupe of freaks, exhibited in all parts of the United States and Europe more than a decade ago. He contrived, by some specific extension exercises, to enlarge his mouth to such extent that he could with ease introduce a twelve-inch plate into it. I have drawn my cartoon from an original photograph depicting him in the act of performing this amusing feat. High Cost of Double Petunia Seed—A quotation from the seed catalog of the Atlee Burpee Company of Philadelphia reads as follows: “Double Petunia, 2574 Fordhook Fancy Fringed, an excellent, carefully hand-pollenized strain, yielding a large percentage of plants having double, finely fringed flowers. Embrace a splendid variety of colors and many beautiful combinations. 1-128 oz., $1.65.” An ounce therefore cost $211.20, and pound, $3,379.20. Friday—Author of “There’s a Sucker Born Every Minute,” was swindled easily.
