SturgiS & Co. wire to II. Holbert q Son:
1.-The stormy day and a very moderate
speculation on our exchange have not
been productive of any interesting ma
terial TO supply you with this evening:
Our market has a firm undertone, and
this afternoon sees a stiffening Of prices
over morning quotations. In spots some
commission buying is noticeable, and as
lar as we can see there Is no pressure
anywhere to sell, stocks. Opinion is di-
yided among traders, though they are
mostly beariSh regarding the immediate
prices. Many of them claim that when
Mr.. Bryan arrives here next week some
renewed uneasiness may be created re-
garding political affairs. Our idea is that
it will be very significant part in low
ering quota tons 1t is reported that the
Pennsylvania railroad has placed some
large orders for steel rails. This should
be instrumental in starting the business
along, as it in a way fixes the prices for
rails. in the immediate future. Facts
the earnings and future prospects of the
American Smelling and Refining COM
pany convince US that these stocks are
very cheap at ruling prices.

There are many women who have
this prejudice against girl babies. and
an amazing prejudice it is, whether the
matter be looked at from the senti-
mental or the practical standpoint.
After the first few years of helpless
and droollng infancy boy is as rule
CT no use TO his mother, no companion
for her and a source OF increasing
anxiety. Just as he attains to years OF
discretion he marries and thenceforth
belongs to his wife's family. The girl,
on the other hand, is a pleasure to her
hotner in infancy, companion in
sirIhood and comfort and support in
old age.
a woman who has had boy baby
makes an investment for the benefit of
some other woman's old age. A
woman who has girl baby makes an
investment for herself. For when the
daughter marries. the mother has
secured home and bread winner.
The more girl babies a woman has
the larger is her insurance agains.

SUMNER HEALTH PRECAUTIONS.

In a recent lecture before the New
York County Medical Society DR..
Henry Dwight Chaplin discussed the
perils to which health is subjected in
the summer season. The maladies to
which there is an increased tendency
are chiefly those of the stomach and
bowels. But heat and loss of sleep.
which are common in hot weather,
leave the system in an exhausted con-
dition and render their victims more
susceptible to other troubles also. Sun
stroke, too, is one of the ills peculiar
to hot weather.
To demonstrate the effect of the
season on the digestive apparatus, DIR.
Chaplin furnishes few figures taken
from the death statistics of New York
city. During the months of June,
July, August and September for five
successive years (1S95-'99) there were
1920 deaths from Inflammation of the
stomach or bowels among adults,
whereas in November, December, Jan
uary and February there were only 974,
or about one-fifth as many. The diff
ference is more striking, though, when
comparison is made in regard to the
deaths of children under the age of 6
from diarrhoea. These, in the four
winter months for five consecutive
years, were only 500, and in the sum
mer reached an aggregate of $685. OF
nearly Is times as many.
This great increase in fatality and
in the number of cases which did not
terminate in death was partly due to
the prostrating effects of summer tenn
peratures and partly to the difficulty
in keeping food untainted In summer
meat, fish and milk are liable to spoil
rapidly. The development of poison
Gus ptomaines in them is often unat-
tended by any marked change in the
taste or smell of those articles But
by keeping them in cool place dill.
gently and beginning that course Of
treatment at the earliest possible mo-
ment this danger may be lessened. And
though at all seasons of the year it is
wise to use water that is shown to be
uncontaminated in washing vessels
that are to contain milk, especial care
should be taken in summer A diet of
fruit, vegetables and milk is much to
be preferred to one of meat in hot
weather, but the fruit should be ripe
and sound and the milk pure and
fresh.
After looking up the deaths from
alcoholism, DR.. Chaipn remarked that
there have been fewer in summer than
in winter, 400 being the number for
the summer months, against 525 for
the four winter months of these five
years. 1t is well known, however, that
alcoholism is a common predisposing
cause of death in sunstroke.-New
York Tribune.

PARROT STOPS A TRIP TO PARIS

Had it not been for a mischievous
poll parrot-so tits said-Miss Mary
Strotter would now be on the French
liner La Bretagne, bound for Paris.
Primarily Miss Strotter's forgetfulness
was the cause of her tarry in Manhat-
tan, but at the finish the parrot
clinched the matter-and Miss Stroller
grieves.
Miss Stroller was prompt in reach
ing the French Line pier. She was
there fully an hour before sailing time.
So also were two trunks, her valise
and her steamer chair. Miss Strotter
had come from the West on Wednes-
day. She had stopped at the Green
witch Street Hotel.
1t was not until just thirty minutes
before sailing time that she discovered
the one article indispensable to the
trip was missing-her ticket
A messenger was passing. Miss
Strotter hailed him and sent him post
haste for the ticket. She told him
just where it could be found-on the
top of her dressing table The hotel
was only three blocks away.
When the man did not return at the
end of fifteen minutes Miss Stroller
grew anxious and almost ran back to
her hotel. She met the returning mes
senger at the door. The ticket could
not be found. She dashed by him to her
room and searched every corner of it
in vain.
1t was ten minutes to sailing time.
She was in despair. She had begun q
fresh search of the room, when she
heard a voice say: You're a fool,
you're fool
1t was the voice of parrot that had
the range of the house at certain
hours. He was perched on a shelf,
and under one claw was the missing
ticket. He flew away as she rushed
at him, but she got the ticket and ran
back to the pier.
La Bretagne was just backing into
the stream, and she will have to take
passage on the next ship sailing

MINISTER WHO BUILT HIS OWN
CHURCH.

Pittsburg, Pa, is the proud possessor
Of young preacher who, when lie
found that his congregation was too
poor to erect a suitable church build
ing, drew the designs for house of
worship with his own hands, secured
by his personal work the material for
the structure, and then went ahead
and, aided by one or two earnest men,
built it. Rev. Albert Wilson, who is
the hero of the story, was born in
Liverpool, Ohio. His father was 4
potter, and he himself worked for some
years at the potter's bench. The
membesrs of his charge in Pittsburg
had never had church and he made
up his mind that they ought to have
one. After making the plans he per-
suaded a contractor to donate the
work necessary to dig and lay the
foundation. Then he secured from a
lumber yard a donation OF lumber
worth $500. That on hand, with saw
and hammer he went to work. Day by
day the various members OF the con-
gregation came as they could spare the
time to help him. The pastor himself
sawed and planed all the lumber used
and laid the floor unaided. The com
pleted church would have cost 50. 900
If built in the ordinary way.
