the day large CIT, bank called in con-
siderable money and there was also q
general calling in Of loans on the part
o. money lenders, under a sort OF scare
or tear OF further failures. On the
stock exchange. under these influences,
the pr ceo Of money advanced from / TO !
per dlem. and tor time WAS positively
close al 10 per cent, but these rates
induced borrowers TO seek sccommoda
tions Immediately, either by borrowing
money at the current high rates or by
selling stocks freely for cash. Before

declined from ID TO l-l6 per diem;
after that hour loans we're made 81 Z 70

How 70 Prevent Hsns from Eating

The Country Gentleman suggests a
vav OF preventing hens from eating

charm. He put pretty good dose OF
pepper in the egg, and plscph it in the
nest OF the CT miual Pretty soon the
hen came along aud took holi 1t WAS

somewhat conceited. l. dipped in its bill
and inhaled the delicacy. Then it
