LUXURIOUS NEW FLATS IN PARIS
In the new flats being erected all
over Paris one notes the tribute to
luxury, in the well installed bathrooms,
the electric lighting, steam heating and
other modern improvements which ten
years ago even the rich French
people dispensed with.
The average flat" in those days was
not even provided with gas; for all
heat there were open fireplaces, some
times filled in by the sitting sala-
mander While the bathroom did not
even exist, even in so small a fashion
as place to put a tub English people
resident in Paris were driven to the
expedient of placing their tubs" in
their wardrobes, or the BLACK closet"
cabinet noir" which is usually
found in old and new apartments, why
or for what purpose no one knows, and
forced into taking their morning tub
by lamplight, if not in the total dark
ness of the cabinet noir." Today all
this is changed. In the new flats one
is no longed obliged to pant up four or
five flights of stairs-the charming
people seem to prefer the top floors
comfortable elevators convey one, IL
not rapidly at least safely, to ones des-
tination. The flats are well heated, adj
mirably lighted with electricity, and
the bathrooms are as well appointed
as one could desire. Luxury has even
invaded the kitchens. The walls are
vanished with enamel paint, the floors
well tiled, the whole better lighted and
aired, and a gas cooking stove, small
but convenient, universally found. as
we'll as the modern range.-From the

Doubt Again Re fiected In Future Course
of Price..
New York, Oct. 9.-The same doubt
and hesitation regarding the future
course Of prices was reflected in to-
days stock market AS in yesterdays.
Speculation was listless and apathetic,
and the sentiment Of the small traders
whose operations made up the market
underwent many variations. Few ac-
tive stocks show net change of as
much as a point. even where the day 3
range was considerable The disposi-
ton was to close up contracts both on
the long and the short side until the
future course of prices outlines itself
more definitely. This tendency was
demonstrated in the response of Brook
Ign Transit and of Atchison to the spe-
cif1c developments affecting them. The
annual report of Brooklyn Transit was
interpreted unfavorably in all the cur
rent comment, especially in the disclos-
ure that the treasury bonds had been
sold during the year Yet the stock
promptly advanced and resisted an at
tempt on the part of professional trad
ers to depress the price. The stock adj
vanced at one time ~ showing the
most conspicuous strength in the mar
ket.
The increase in the Atchson dividend
rate, although confidently predicted in
some quarters, had been denied with
equal confidence in others. In fact, the
decision seems to have been discussed
and finally decided in the meeting it.
self of the directors. The attempt to
advance the stock on the announcement
proved abortive, the extreme rise over
last night reaching less than a point
and the net gain only u. The doubt
over the predicted advance was due to
the fact of the shortage in the corn
crop. Some of the other southwestern
railroads were offered down sharply, as
though to emphasize this view. The
estimate of the years wheat crop by
an agricultural periodical, placing it at
a record figure, and at 100,0 600 bush
els for Kansas alone, was an opportune
offset to this contention. The election
Of an additional Standard Oil represen-
tative to the Union Pacific board of
directors was a verification of another
bull prediction But the bull party hes
itated to take UP the speculation for
an advance, owing to the danger that
money flurries may still intervene be-
fore the interior movement Of currency

Sterling exchange was notably strong

with rather firm undertone. Norfolk

Mrs. Barton looked up to him again
appealingly.

Malcolm. but he hardly seemed to real

planning to go away from all this bur-
den bearing? Had he not already writ

he would be free to use his pen without

enough that for man like Malcolm to
do anything that in the smallest de-
gree contradicted his convictions
meant for him continual torture Of
MIND, The minute she saw that his
action In leaving Conrad meant that
sort Of moral conflict she knew there
was only one course open to them, and
that was to stay in Conrad and battle
out the life that duty called them to
live there.
In all this nothing but the great and
trustful love they felt for each other
made possible such a complete and un-
questioning change Of plans that af-
fected their whole future. Malcolm
would not have been the man he was
It he had not felt constrained to stay
IN Conrad. Dorothy would not have
been the woman she was If. once see
ing that her husbands moral strength
depended on this decision, she had at
tempted to argue him out of it or had
failed to accept the situation cheerfully
and once for all.
So, then, these two children of the
All Father. having settled thus simply
but decidedly this question, faced the
life before them bravely and silently,
and no one in Conrad knew until years
afterward how, near they had come to
losing two Of the greatest souls that
ever came into the place. Malcolm new
er told his church people,. He simply
picked up the thread of his affection
for them where he had seemed for
awhile to drop it and went on to love
them more and more, and they, in
turn, never dreaming of the moral
conflict he had been having, grew to
love him because they were enduring
hardship together.

Malcolm read the four letters through
one after the other without word Of
comment Only Dorothy, watching
him, noted the expressions on his face.
When he finished the letter from the
Boston magazine, he looked up.
''Well?" said Dorothy slowly, as if
Malcolm had asked question.
Its a great OFFER" said Malcolm. He
was evidently very much moved by it.
And he rose a nd walked up and down.
Finally he stopped near the door.

was familiar with that habit. Malcolm
had often done that when tired of the

it and go on in his might
During the weeks and months that
followed Malcolm had great encourage
ment in his plans for building. He
boldly went to several Of the business
men in Conrad-men who were not
church members-and asked them to
help. They did so and in many cases
came to him before he went to them
and volunteered assistance. The spirit
Of prayer pervaded the entire church.
Before spring almost enough money
had been raised to build larger struc-
ture than the one that had been burned.
Before that time, however, the tenn
perance agitation had grown into a
great tide of feeling in Conrad. Doro-
thy never forgot the evening Malcolm
came in and with a glow in his face
that transformed it exclaimed:
"A telegram just received says the
legislature today by the necessary two
thirds vote passed the resolution to
submit a prohibitory amendment to the
constitution! l never cheered for the
legislature before, but l propose three
cheers, three times three. right away"
Out on the main street that night the
temperance people built an immense
bonfire. The band came out and play.
ed, and there were speeches and TEN.
perance songs. One Of the best speech
es was by Malcolm Kirk. He called at
tention during it to the fact that the
battle had only just begun; that there
were nearly two years yet before the
people would be called on to vote on
the amendment. All the time he was
speaking he was conscious that outside
the enthusiastic circle of temperance
and Christian people was the whisky
element, sullen, angry. surprised at the
action of the legislature, venomous.
Just beginning to stir itself for the two
years struggle. 1t seemed to Malcolm
that he could even that night prophesy
in some degree the satanic character of
the conflict that made Conrad one of
the fercest centers of the fight. E

battle had only just begun BY the act
of the legislature. The weeks and
months that followed witnessed soma

The superintendent was one of the
leading temperance workers in Conrad.

work carried on in the country dis

and one whom he trusted entirely.
