STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, July 31.-There were
number of depressing influences brought
to bear on the stock market today and
prices opened lower but later there was
a rally and the close was Srong. Most
conspicuous of the depressing Influence
was the reported outbreak 0f yellow fe-
yer at the Hampton Virginia Soldiers
Home. The group of railroads liable 10
suffer from the yellow fever epidemic
and subsequent quarantineS have been
fayorites in the recent speculation eS
pecially on the part Of London. a set
back to them therefore was calculated
to have far-reaching influence in the
general list. Louisville and Nashville
did III fact open down ! and the Norfolk
and Western stocks, Southern Railway
and Chesapeake and Ohio were also de-
pressed and ruled below Saturdays
level all day, only fully recovering in
the late dealings. The exhibit Of the
Associated Banks in the Saturdays
statement also had some untay ,rable
influence in the esaily dealings. A de-
crease OF nearly 1900 tons in the east

The effect OF those combined influences
was to turn the tide Of speculation at

companies were quite largely bought,
but the earliest strength was confined to
a few or them. FEDERAL Steel, Tenncs-

them practically a single wing The upper Of
the two wings is about half an inch in length the
lower little shorter The wings come together
where they are joined to the body; they are other
wise separate. When the bee goes into its hive
it folds its wings together one leaf the other
so that they will take up less room. When il goes
abroad it spreads its wings and couples them
together with the hooks.

In some countries women are chosen for wives
because Of their capacity for work: In some for
their beauty; some for their accomplishments

She is willing to be WIFE but only TO a man
who will do all the work and hand over all the

the country. This girl has brother, big and
husky, a regular machine for work, but without
prospects except such as the farm affords, and
the farm is heavily mortgaged. He toled day

she turned the grndstone for him " hen he was

Of the countless times he had looked wicked eyed

when she would reach home and whether mamma
would have tea ready. Al the train. the parting

Marry YOU" said the damScl. How could
J think OF marrying man with neither money
nor prospects?
You do not love me?" he asked sadly. Then
