THE RICE MARKET.
TALMAGE'S REPORT.

The demand of the week was
irregular, alternate days active
and dull. Asa whole, the volume
of business fell a fraction short
of the previous week; locally
curtailed by the interruption of
the Holy Days, while out-town
the breaking up of wintry con-
ditions renders roads almost i'm
passible, and this brings trade to
a nominal stand still. The posi-
ton and outlook as more recently
noted, is strong and discloses no
evidence of weakness. Stocks
are in the hands of those who ap-
preciate their value and with
light supply throughout the
country, and quickening of move
ment is likely to cause marking
up in values.
Advices from the south note
sluggish mOVementanue easy COLI
ditions at all points along the At
lantic coast. In New Orleans
and through the southwest, the
complaint is heard of dull trade
and yet statistical reports show
weekly sales suficint to carry
ont tho cro,, hefOre the new can
arrive in any plentiful quantity.
Holders are further encouraged
by the opinion that with settled
weather the volume will once
more swell out to proportions
which have prevailed since crop
opening, and if this hope or ex-
pectation be well founded the for
ward supply, as usual, will fall
short of forward requirements.

He Delivered The Goods

Last Sunday evening a well-known
East slider told his wife that he
guessed he'd stay home while she
went dutifully to church, but as soon
as she was aboard the car he went
downtown and. among other things,
bought a nice box Of candy for his wife
TO pay her for not making kick
when he wanted TO stay away from
church. When she arrived home from
meeting she discovered him very in
terested in a book that she had been
reading. Immediately an argument en-
sued as to who was to have it. Natur-
ally each insisted that the other take
it, but both had a string tied TO the
proposition. Finally the husband said:
TN tell YOU what III do. III buy the
book from you. What'H you take for
it,
The wife thought a moment. trylRg
to make it a hard one, and then eX-
claimed:

ately."
The foxy husband raised a newspa-
per and handed out the box, serenely
took the book and calmly resumed its
perusal The wife nearly swooned.
