buyers to-day has been moderate in the
primary dry goods market, and in all
directions spot business has been report
ca of an Indifferent character. Nail or

cured through them has not run above
recent average. The general indifference
or the jobbing trade toward a provision

operations of exporters and converters,
Is a perplexing factor to sellers. In the

1atipg anecdotes Of the eccentricity and
enormous wealth Of Americans.
An American went into hairdress-
er's shop in Paris recently and found a
charming but poorly dressed girl en-
gagged in negotiations with the propri-
etor. She was Offering to sell him her
magnificent head of hair for three napo-
leons-the man would give her no more
than one. AZ last tho poor girl gave
way with tears, and tho barber was
about to employ the fatal scissors when
tho American interviewed and demanded
tho cause Of the sad affair.
He found that the girls parents, who
formerly had been well off, were in the
last extremity IT poverty. and that she
had determined to make so great sac
riiice in order to obtain them q little
bread. The stranger drew out two bank
notes and offered them to the girl, say
ing:
will you let me buy your hair?'
Without even looking ut the notes. the
