SUNFLOWER VS.. PRIMROSE.
The True Autocrat of the Breakfast
Table.

If bread is the staff of life butter is
the change in the pocket that smOoths
the road and levels the hills for the
W2yfarer. Bread without butter is
rather a stern proposition and good but
ter makes the hard duty of eating bread
an unallOyed pleasure. But there is
butter and butter. The man who has
not had to eat poor butter some time
in his life is indeed lucky. as poor but
ter is and always has been in a large
majority.
We appreciate only those blessings
which come to US seldom The blessings
that we enjoy every day are the
largest and best of all but are the least
appreciated and those of us who eat
butter the year round take it as a mat
ter Of course
we never miss the water till the
well runs dry" and we never praise the
butter we have enjoyed until we get
bite of the poor or rancid kind. The
true autocrat of the breakfast table is
butter. and by the same token Primrose
butter, made in Topeka, is queen of the
breakfast table autocrats.
Primrose butter is always the same
winter and summer, in flavor. sweetness,
whOlesomeness and cleanliness. Poets
have said that good wine is redOlent Of
the vineclad hills of France. How much
truer it is that Primrose butter has in
its sweet flavor the Odor of the breeze
slips and buttercups? The epicurean,
tasting it, can hear the ripple of the
brook. the gentle lowing of the kline as
they wander home in the dusk, and the
tinl1e of their bells as they snip the
primrose from the shady banks
Primrose butter is made in Topeka
1t is enclosed in the Theoretically seal
ed, OdOr proof germ and moisture proof
package and is packed by pretty maids
with dainty hands at the plant of the
Continental Creamery company Prim-
rose butter goes into the best families
all over the world and is welcome
guest at the table of the European cpl
cure as well as at the board of the
sturdy business man in the United
States who feels he must have the best
there is going on his table. Ask your
grocer for it.

The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall Street.

The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall Street.
New York, July 25.-Has the liquida-
ton in stocks run it's course, and what
will be its effect upon general business?
These are the two questions at present
uppermost in the minds of business
men, though definite answers are i'm
possible under such a conflict of OPP
posing forces as are now actively at
work.
The decline in securities has been
satisfactorily accounted for over and
over again; and now it is the conse-
quences of that decline that cause con-
Germ. Losses have been exceedingly
severe. and the fact that they have
thus far been quietly met without in
ducing open disaster is simply aston
ishing. 1t is explained, of course, by
the other fact that the losses have
chiefly fallen upon the rich, and by
still another that liquidation while
forced has at no time been allowed to
develop symptoms of panic. Support
at critical times has always been forth
coming from big insiders as we'll as
from bargaN- hunting investors who
usually appear when securities sell at
or under intrinsic values. For high
grade railroad stocks with a proved
reputation for dividend earning capac-
ity there are ready purchasers on ev-
cry decline; and these no doubt will
eventually prove profitable Investments
even should the market fall to a still
lower level. AS to the latter possibil-
ity it depends entirely as to the COM
pleteness of liquidation, and an asser-
ton to that effect is premature.
Pessimism is chiefly confined to Walf
street, while all through the West, the
Northwest, the Southwest and the
South there is every evidence of bust
ness activity and progress. The rail-
roads in these sections are taxed to
their fullest capacity in spite of recent
large additions to equipment, and Off
Gals show more or less fear of a car
shortage when the crop-moving season
begins If there is a note of hesitation
anywhere outside of New York and
New England, it has its source in the
excess of which Wall street has been
the center.
AS for the ultimate effect of this
reaction upon general business, predic-
tons are useless. Buyers are growing
more and more conservative, likewise
those who take the initiative in bust
ness and industry. Should new enter
prises receive a check we may approach
for the first time a condition where
production has overtaken consumption.
This has not yet happened, but the
enormous additions to our productive
capacity are already having an effect
that would quickly be more pronounced
In case of slackening demand.

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW
BY VIM. It. Williams.

" AAAs l. w lAAiduAo
The overshadowing influence in the
speculative markets during the past
week was the increasing uneasiness on
the Stock Exchange. At times the
market for securities was nearly in a
panicky condition, notably so on Fri
day, when the announcement of two
important failures caused a very abb
rupt drop in stocks chiefly affected. A
subsequent rally was poorly sustained,
as Saturdays bank statement, while
reporting a handsome increase in the
surplus reserve, showed actually fur
Their expansion in loans instead of the
very material contraction which had
been confidently expected. A very
general apprehension exists that the
worst is yet to come. 1t is hard to see
how a forced contraction of loans can
be avoided and the effect upon such a
strained situation is not pleasant to
surmise. Moreover, movements like
the present one usually terminate in a
violent spasm of excitement.
feature of the week was the fact
that standard dividend paying stocks,
which some time ago showed greatest
weakness, were generally better sus-
tanned, while the Other class of stocks
have now become the most conspic-
uOus sufferers Less favorable crop
news from the West, more particular
ly the corn belt, helped to intensity
the general apprehension. Money on
call continues astonishingly easy, but
time loans are at much higher rates.
Cotton was quieter, but prices moved
upward under aggressive tactics by
the bullish manipulators, apparently
disregarding the fine crop reports and
the threatening outlook in stocks.
July was advanced over 11sc to 1880,
while August and September gained IS
points. At the close July was Ito
points higher. August and September
30 to 35, and later months 20 to 25
points higher. In New Orleans the
movement was much the same.
Under the various conflicting influ-
ences, it is quite impossible to forecast
the immediate future of the market.
The manipulators may succeed in
holding up prices, and even in putting
them higher before the end of July;
but the break, forecasted here a week
ago, should come soon after. 1t may
now be considered as definitely assured
that the August bureau report will
show a large gain in condition, and
give a figure well above last years.

BOOK NOTICES.

''The Crimson Dice" by George Nox
Mccain. Illustrated by Clarence
Rowe. Published by ]. Murray Cor
dan, South Penn Square, Philadelphia.
Cloth $780, For sale by Savannah
booksellers.
The hero of the story, a millionaire
archaeologist,, who has been rejected
by Judith Stenton, a beautiful Phila-
delphia Quakeress, reaches Pompeii
just as the body of Centurion of the
Guard is brought to light. In the hand
of the skeleton is bronze box which
the archaeologist secures by bribing
workman. He opens the box at his
hotel, and finds within three dice
marked with crimson crosses instead
of black dots. With the dice is en-
closed a parchment letter written
nearly 1000 years ago. 1t states that
the dice are the veritable lots that
We're cast by the Roman soldiers for
the garments of Christ.
With the curse of the dice following
him, the hero, John Livingston Bres-
lin. becomes involved in a series of re-
markable crimes and adventures. The
spell of the dice, like the curse of Sa-
lathiel, clings to him; yet, through
their strange influence, he is flung into
the companionship of the beautiful girl
who has rejected him. The weird and
unusual adventures of the pair and
the striking climax form the fascinat-
ing and original plot of the story.
