american securities Abroad.

The sales of American securities
have been, according to London adj
vices, very large abroad of late and
there appears to be tendency to-
ward increase in the sales. II this
state of things holds, there will be
an increasing influx of British gold
into this market. This is good
news snd demonstrates the faith
abroad in the stability of our credit.
There is another point of faith tor
which the people not only OF this
but foreign countries have good
grounds for credene, and that is,
belief in the efficacy of Hostetter.s

insomnia, are counteracted and con-

Thirty couples, members of
Americas club, of Sistersville, came
down last Thursday evening on the
Ruth, and with Our young people
spent the evening dancing at the
Armory, which is the best dancing
hall on the river. The Sistersville
people were so we'll pleased with
the reception and the Armory they
promised themselves the pleasure
of another visit to our town.
Forty couples dancing at one time
and not crowded either gives some
idea of the size of the Armory.

ously treated and made welcome
when they make us visit.-New
