It showed her appreciative tempera-
ment when a lady told with triumph the
other day of such a pretty compliment
paid her all unconsciously. She said it
happened three other persons with her
self were approaching a crossing where
a neat looking servant was standing, evi-
dently sorely perplexed as to locality.
With shrewd eyes the anxious domestic
examined each lady's face in turn with
out a word. Then with perfect conf
dence turned to the narrator and very
civilly inquired Of a direction. Children
and animals are said to be infallible

New York stock Market.
Reported by c. W. Branch 4 Co., bankers
and brokers, No. I'LL Main street

NEW YORK. January 2s.-We had an
other strong market to-day, but the feature
was Louisville and Nashville on the issue
Of the plan for retiring bonds by the issue Of
$4,000, 900 stock. Other advances were in
New England. Western Union, Union
Pacific and St. Paul are seemingly Foreign
buying. The cOalers Jagged at first, and
then rallied in the afternoon. Business
wasn't as big as yesterday, but it was large
IN comparison with most days in the last
three months. The street tone is very hope
ful aside from the coal stocks. News is
partly GOOD and partly bad, but there is no
aggressive short interest as that party re-
tired from the market a week ago, except a
few belated shorts. We continue feeling
conseryatiyely bullish, aside from the coal
ers. and think the money is buying on all
reactions. Prices are not low while cOndi-
ti0ns as whole are extremely bullish and
might warrant even further advances.

CHICAGO, January 2s.-Wheat has been
active to-day from opening 10 close. The
culpable carelessnoss which led % the En-
rors in the report Of the agricultural de-

winter wheat was 1921, whereas the same
parties said that it is only about %. caused
the bulls in our market many dollar yes
terday. They sold out freely; bears took
advantage Of ii % cover shorts. and to-day
have continued their buying. The feeling
is that we have had break enough, and that a
reaction is due. This feeling has been increas-
ed by reports received from California. those
coming from authentic sources giving "a
gloomy outlook on that crop. ON the other

crop has been cut down by excessive rains.

rather light business. Gables steady: de-
