Good morning! Here are some of today's starting headlines (other than yesterday's World Series rally):

Cold pill sales jump after new law in St. Charles County

Now that St. Charles County requires a prescription to purchase cold pills containing a key ingredient to methamphetamine, sales of the over-the-counter medications are soaring in three nearby St. Louis County towns.

The St. Louis region's largest grocery chain is removing some items from its salad bar amid concerns about E. coli, even though investigators still don't know the cause of the outbreak.

Health officials say nearly two dozen people have been sickened by the illness in St. Louis city and four surrounding counties.

Investigators from the state of Missouri and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are in St. Louis to try and determine the cause.
