NEW YORK. Dec. 8.
e An.effort was made at the opening today
to break values. but the market showed de-
cided resistance and after covering effected
a substantial rally. The excuse for the re-
covery was the tenor of the Presidents
message to Congress in relation to the cur
rency and the maintenance of the national
credit. but his remarks about the schedule
on sugar in the new tariff were unfavo1-
able in their influence on sugar refining.
1t is apparent that vigorous effort Will be
made this winter to secure the removal of
small diff .rential against sugar coming
from bounty paying countries, but it is ex-
tremely doubtful that any more serious
legislation will be- successfully directed
against the refining interest. The Presi-
dents vigorous announcement of his inten-
ton to protect the gold reserve by the
means at his hand ought to have reassur-
ing effect in financial circles, although one
needs to be extremely sanguine TO look for
important constructive work on the finances
from the present Congress. Decided
strength in the foreign exchanges has re-
vived rumors of possible gold shipments
this week, but the heavy export of products
usual to this season. even though the values
are reduced ought to postpone the gold out
flow until later in the winter. The railway
outlook is without special change, and3is
likely to remain unsatisfactory for some
time notwisth standing numerous measures
of &c onomy now being ruthlessly put into
force on the western railways. The situa-
tion in general is one of probable slow i'm
provement, and holders appear disposed to
await with patience the dawn of better
times considering that current low prices
have about ''discounted'' adverse oondi-
tions. 1t does not seem safe to look for any
movement Ill values except that which
comes from occasional liquidation of short
contracts. but the bear faction is SO agrees
s:ve that it frequently overdoes It's work
and we believe that the wiser course is to
buy on the raids for the purpose of realz-
ing when rallies occur.

TRIBES OF CLAY EATERS.
Men and Animals Who DeyOur Earth
and Sand.

From the Westminster Gazette.
The habit OF using sand and clay as part
of mans regular food appears to he more
widespread than is generally supposed. Ii
was long understood to be confined to a
tribe Of Indians on the Orinoco, the Otto
macs, among whom, during the two or
three months in which their game supply
is cut off by floods each person is said to
consume about five ounces daily of a fine.
unctuous clay. The Indians of the Bolivi
an plateauS use a similar earth mixed with
sand, and the practice is also found in
several islands of the West Indies. num-
Der of the African tribes are earth eaters,
as were some of their representatives in
America i'm slavery days. The natives of
New Caledonia may also be called rock
caters, stalactitic crusts appearing to be
4 favorite dainty. In Persia earth is large
ly eaten as an aid to digestion instead of,
as food IT Scandinavia and Gcrma y
are many earth eaters, and in certain
mountain quarries the workmen spread
"stone butter" consisting of a kind of clay,
on their bread Tie habit seems to be most
prevalent in tropical re sions, and more so
in women than men. 1t is known that GER
tain animals-such as the wolf, reindeer
and stag-have appetites for earth food.

1t is not alone sufficient to give the infant
milk which has been made as nearly like
the mothers as possible but il is also alb
solutely necessary that the same be free
of germs, for such milk only a child
can thrive, while milk which is but a tribe
decomposed produces serious sickness and
even death, as can be observed in ever so
many cases during the hot summer season.
Decomposition of milk is caused by mi
crcorganismS which get into it from the air.
AS they are more numerous and multiply
faster in summer than in winter, il is eX-
trelnely difficult to keep the milk in good
condition during the heated term, and thus
protect the infants against sickness and
death. The point i'll question, therefore,
is how to make and keep milk free from
germs.
cessitated more than in the feeding of the
babies The slightest milk flake, hardly
visible to the naked eye, which is so easi-
ly overlooked IN cleaning bottles, may pos
sbly contain the dangerous bacterlae in
feet the next filling of the bottle and prove
fatal to the child.
The most important points to be observed
in feeding the infants with milk may
be embraced in this brief resume:
FIRST the best and cheapest substitute
for mothers milk is good, fresh milk.
Second, Immediately after the milk has
been received it should be boiled according
to the Soxhlet or other system of like
value.
Third, after boiling the milk it should be
cooled off and kept in cool room, below
GS degrees, or in refrigerator or ice-boX
if possible.
Fourth. where this is impossible. the milk
should be boiled again after twelve hours.
Fifth, any milk remaining in the Hottie
after feeding the child should he thrown
away. 80
sixth. the bottles should be cleaned very
carefully and Immediately after they have
been emptied, for cleanliness is one of the
chief requirements of success.

THREE MODISH GOWNS

The blouse waist is regarded with the

trimming is used for the bodice.
Picturesque effects should always be
aimed for. An artistic gown does not

FOOD FOR BABIES,
Preparation of Cows MiIk-The Sum
ply Necessary for Infants.


From the New York Telegram.
All authorities on the subject of proper
food for babies agree on this fact. that in
case mother canrot nurse her child, or a
nurse cannot be obtained, the best substi-
tute is good COW milk. II is much better,
and, what is also an important factor,
much cheaper than all other baby foods,
but it must be prepared in a very careful
manner in order TO constitute a beneficial
ncurishment for the young child
The principal difference between cow milk
and mothers milk is in the quantity. and
There is not only considerably more cas-
cine in the former than in the latter, but
in coagulating in the stomach it also cur
dies into larger Jumps. and is, therefore
more difficult to digest than mothers milk,
which forms into Light flakes. This fault
may in large measure be remedied by re-
ducing the COW milk with oatmeal or barley
fuls of the meal and boiling ii from fifteen
to twenty minutes in one pint of water
after which ii must be strained through a
fine sieve. AS COW milk lacks the sweet
ness of mothers milk an addition of sugar
is required Or. A. Seibert has compiled q
table which affords a reliable guide for
mothers in preparing food Tor their little
ones, and tells them how much, how often
and when to feed them. DR.. Seibert holds
that the weight, not the age of the infant
determines its food properly" He advises
TO weigh the naked baby from time To
time, and then prepare its food by the fol-
lowing table:

tabooed. Cheap MORE is about the shod-
diest material in the market Not much
trimming is used on any of the gown
skirts, either silk or wool, but hodices are
quite covered with lace and passementerie
and frills, and the sleeves-language fails
this chronicler to describe them! Ample"
is the term applied to the enormous things
by one fashion writer, but "amplfied de-
formities" would better suit the present
designs. OF course, vulgarized fashion
will soon go out, and, though the lego

pretty, they can't long stand the pressure
of useless material.
