MARKETS

FRESH STRENGTH IN CORN MARKET CHICAGO, July 31. Corn developed fresh strength today, influenced by the rapid falling, oft In the movement to the leading terminal markets. Receipts here were again much less plentiful than has been the rule of late and it took but little buying to make prices advance. There was a notable lack of pressure to sell. Opening prices, which ranged from the same as yesterday's finish to quarter cent higher with August $1.54 1-4 to $1.54 3-8 and Sept. $1.55 1-2 to $1.56. were followed by a decided general upturn. Oats hardened with corn. Exporters were buying, and rural offerings were not large. After opening quarter off to lc up with August 68 3-4 to 68 7-8, prices scored moderate general gains. Higher quotations on hogs gave strength to provisions. The market was also bullishly effected by the firmness of Cereals. GRAIN QUOTATIONS CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE CHICAGO, July 31.

believes he has withdrawn enough and is prepared for heavy fighting, before again moving northward. It la not improbable, however, that the allied pressure has been so forceful that he has been compelled to protect the guns and stores still within the salient. General Foch apparently believes be can drive the Germans to the Vesle or beyond and the American success is a step in that direction. In Flanders the allied position has been improved further through the capture of Merris by Australian troops. Merris is immediately north of Meteren, taken by Scottish troops last week. Field Marshal Halg's nibbling in Flanders and Picardy is having increasing success. In the taking of Merris, the Australians captured 169 prisoners and some trench mortars and machine guns. The Germans are retaliating by bombarding the new positions heavily.

FIHE SELLS DRUG STORE FIXTURES The fixtures and soda fountain In the drug store of Leo H. Fihe, 830 Main street, have been removed to Middletown, Ohio, by Clem Thistlethwalte, who purchased them for a store which he Is opening in that city. Fihe is still selling out bis stock. The removal of the furniture has not interrupted the sale. Fihe opened the store nineteen years ago. He took advantage of an opportunity to dispose of his fixtures and of selling out his stock so that he might withdraw from the business and have more time for family life than was possible owing to the long hours demanded by the drug business. He has not decided what he will do after he has sold out his stock. Fihe is a graduate of the Cincinnati College of Pharmacy. He was with the late 'J. S. Adams at Sixth and Main street for six years preceding the opening of his own store.

FOR FEEBLE OLD PEOPLE John Devitt Recommends Vinol,to Create Strength and Vitality. Marlton, N. J. "I am 69 years of age and after a severe sickness, was In a weak, run-down condition. Vlnol has built me up and made me strong, so now I feel real well again, and I can recommend it to others for such conditions." John M. Devitt. The reason Vinol was so successful in Mr. Devitt's case, is because it contains beef and cod liver peptones, iron and maganese peptonates and glycerophosphates, the very elements needed to build up a weakened, run-down system, make rich, red blood and create strength. It is perfectly wonderful what it does for old people. Clem Thlstlethwalte and druggists everywhere.
