New York Stock Letter.

New York, June 10. The stock market
opened a little hesitating In spite OF the
better level of London prices, but before
the session ended decided strength was
developed on liberal covering of shorts.
There was pauclty of commission honses
but traders operated on the theory that
a gold plank would be part of the st.
Louis platform, and would revive foreign
purchases. The railway list scored adj
yanceS of = to / per cent, but the in

thousand feet up in the air, it is evil

Of rock has become dislodged from the
mountain and rolled down with fearful
momentum to the point where it now
rests.
The bowlder, as near as can be esti-

HealthfuIness of Apples.

Doctors say that if women would eat
plenty of apples they would not need
any other tonic. There are medicinal
properties in the acid of the apple that
are not found anywhere else. They
cleanse and tone the system at the same
time, and the habitual apple eater ex-
periences a peculiar exlIalation that is
almost unknown to those who abstain
from the fruit.
