Notwithstanding not a little liqui-
dalton by the pools the stock market
this afternoon maintained the early
advances, closing at about the highest
prices and therefore showing substan-
tial net gains. II is not necessary to
particularize any stock or group of
stocks since the market moved as a
whole throughout the day. The
strength shown must largely be as
cPibed to the confidence as to the fu-

NEW YORK, September 16. 400 p.
m.-Patriotism rules the stock mar
ket to-day. The promise given by
President Roosevelt was the keynote
to the situation. 1t gave confidence
both abroad and at home. The stock
market had anticipated the worst on
Friday, and with the assurance that is
universally felt that the policy of the
late President Mckinley will be car
ried out in strictest sense by such an
able man as Theodore Roosevelt,
prices for American securities advanc-
ed in London from 2 to per cent,
and our local market opened at about
the same level, continuing to advance
in an orderly manner UP to the close
of the session.
Aside from the political aspect, there
were other influences that contributed
to the strength displayed to-day
In the first place, stocks went into
strong hands in the course OF the last
week.
Second, the money market, thanks
to the clearing house committee ana
the prompt action of the united
States Treasury. was placed where no
possible stringency or disturbance is
likely to take place. Even to-day 1t
was announced that the United States
Treasury will anticipate the payment
OF the October interest.
Third. the railroad earnings con-
,tinue as phenomenally favorable aS
heretofore. We cite as an instance
the July report of the Missouri Paci-
fc 5000 900 gross increase, with net
increase of s457.ooo. In the face OF
such a condition prevailing, there can
be no question that the upward ten
dency of the market, which has been
interrupted by the unfavoraole analr
in Buffalo will continue, for the mar
monious relationship existing between
the leading financial interests Will no
doubt result in their plans being fully
contaminated to the great benent 10

ECZEMIS
ITOH IS TORTURE.

Eczema is caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming in contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
fiammation little pustular eruptions form
and discharge thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and assured. Eczema in any
form is a tormenting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable; the acid burning
humor seems to ooze out and set the skin
on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good, for as
long as the poison remains i'll the blood
it will keep the skin irritated.

A Walking Fern.

There is a fern which, by its peculiar
habit of growth. may almost just lay
claim to the popular name Of the walk
ing fern"
The fronds arch over. and the fine
slender points coming in contact with the
soil take root. New growth again pro-
ceeds from the latter. which, in its turn
roots also. so that the locale of the plant
is continually moving forward and sug
costing the idea of walking.
This peculiar fern is quite hardy and
succeeds well in soil of peat. leaf mold
and sand. in a shady position which IL
moist in summer and fairly dry in win
ter. The fronds are heart shaped, bright
green in color, 6 to IL inches iong.-Lon

HER STOCK OF PROVERBS.
She Applies Them with More Liber-
atty Than Judgment.


Just few samples will serve to show
that she has. in another form, the same
trouble that made Mrs. Darlington so in
teresting. The Detroit woman on the
sunny side of 40 is handsome. kind heart
ed and lisps. but the application Of COM
mon sayings is to her as a sealed book.
She looked out the front door and ex-
citedly called to her husband: my, Tom,
but it's lovely night. Just as clear as
q doornail."
One day she received some callers
while 1t was storming. 'Nasty, isn't 1t?
How unfortunate for you. But beggars
can't be choosers."
A bachelor uncle. from whom she had
great expectations, paid her visit. He
has convivial habits and an incandescent
nose. He was expatiating on some of his
secret charities, and she was congratulate
ing him on SO letting his light shine be-
fore men, when he abruptly left and sent
word the next week that he had changed
his will. She replied Gliding him gently,
and closed with, "But let us remember,
uncle, that fool and his money are soon
parted, and that other Scriptural teach
ing. that no rich man can go through the
eye Of a needle"
The doctor was treating her for neural
gia. She objected to the strength Of the
medicine and added plaintively, But all
the world loves a lover. DOCTOR"
When the cook broke a costly platter,
the little woman assured the fearful Of
fender that all Is not gold that glitters.
When her husband told her of a loss
through an unfortunate investment, she
threw her arms about his neck and con-
soled him with the assurance that the
proof of the pudding is in the eating.
She thanked her minister for a pastoral
call by telling him that fools rush in
where angels fear to tread. and, in writ
ing an excuse for her little boys absence
from school, worked in the sentiment
that there is no fool like an old fool
