TEsTERDAF,s STOCK MARKET.
Par. of Day spent In Complete
 IdieneRs

Greater Part of Day spent In Complete Idiensss.
 | New York, Dec. 22-To-day's stock
 market was only nominal and the great
 CT part of the day was spent in com
 piete fdleness by the brokers. The most
 vigorous efforts which the handful of
 floor traders could muster had no suc-
 cess in lifting prices and there was no
 urgent pressure to sell, with the con- sequence that prices were inert. A 1 desultory speculation was kept up in the stocks of New York public utilities
 but their advances were but feebly held. Talk of large earnings accompanied the dealings and in the case of Consolidated
 Gas there are suggestions of 8 satisfac- | tory adjustment of claims against the city held by the company. There was some pressure against Rock Island and affiliated securities of kind which de- veloped last week when rumors found acceptance of pending bond issue. On the other hand some of the industrials are inclined to harden on the asslmp-
 ton that money will be available after New Year to the railroads to pursue their equipment purchases, The heavi- ness of the London raw copper market may have caused the slight decline in Amalgamated Copper after an early ad- vance in that stock. United States Steel preferred was the subject of the cus- tomary surmises as to dividend possi- bilities, but fell into profound neglect with the rest of the market. Lacka- wanna reacted from its recent wide ad- vance, which was due to talk of a dis tribution of surplus. The coalers gen. eraliy were firm on the contemplation of results of year of unexampled pros- perity as a whole rather than on the immediate outlook, which is somewhat clouded. The uncertainties of the Far Eastern war outlook are a oppressive influence on all the worlds markets, but sentiment on the subject reflects no acute apprehensions.
 The bond market was dull and irregu- lar Total sales par value $1,745,000,
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Grand Opera House.

Sky Farm" which is coming to the Grand Opera house as the Christmas attraction next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, after a remarkable career nearly all of last season in New York and Boston, Is said to possess just the essential attributes which go to make up an entertainment which appeals in a special way to popularity among the great middle class of intelligent thea ter-goers. Its author is Edward E. Kidder, who furnished the late Sol Smith Russell the plays of Peaceful Valley" and "A Poor Relation MT. Kidder has aimed to be clean without a single offensive line or suggestion. His play is brimful of action and pictur- esque in it's character and it's stage set tings. It teens with love and hunaor, both in situation and dialogue, and is also credited with a few touches of pathetic sort that tugs sharply at the hearts sings. These last named periods, however, are not long and burdensome, but often make way for laughter and merry dance.
 There will be 8 holiday matinee on Christmas day and the usual matinee on Saturday. Seat sale now open, and there has been 8 large advance sale. Secure seats at once in advance and avoid the rush. The usual prices will prevail.

A great many people of the playgoing class are coming to New Haven on Fri day and Saturday from the adjacent towns to see one of the scheduled per- formances of the big New York sue cess, Checkers" at the Hyperion on Friday and Saturday, matinee and night. This influx from the neighbor- ing towns is due not only from the nat ural desire to see this play about which So much has been printed in the news papers and magazines since the begin hing of the season, at the earliest pos- sible moment, but also to the announce ment that this is the only town in New England outside of Boston in which the play will be seen either this or next season. The sale of seats, which has been going on since yesterday morning, indicates that a large interest in the forthcoming engagement is manifest in New Haven, and that the financial end of the engagement here will be dis tirct success there seems no cause to doubt.

ANCIENT HYGIENE.
Cleanliness and Healthful Diet In.
sisted on Ages Ago.


From Health.
Even at this late day. with the many
statements of recent and wonderful alleged
progress made in medicine and surgery
there is nothing really new under the sun.
The diseases which beset the human frame
in these days afflicted the world 1900 years
ago and more, and the learned doctors OF
that period treated them on the same gen.
eral principles, If not with such full med
ical knowledge.
The Old Testament is full of commands
of great sanitary value. and they were an
adaptation of the medical knowledge OF
Egypt, elaborated and developed. The law
provided for personal cleanliness. the fsoia-
ton Of cases of infectious disease, and
healthful diet. BY prohibiting the use of
blood as food, 1t held that there was COM
municability of disease between cattle and
men, as physicians even at this date are
unfolding against DIR. Koch of Berlin.
The law forbade the eating of quadrupeds
cud thus bespeaking digestive qualities, en-
Joined the fighting of infectious disease by
fire. forbade the use of food of animals that
had died natural death, of carrion-eating
birds and of fish without scales and fins.
The sanitation and hygiene of the Bible
Is amplified and developed In the Talmud,
which still gives hygienic law to the Jews.
How complete Is this conception of hygiene,
physiology and medicine in this work of
the pre-Christian era can be seen by a few
of the diseases diagnosed in the Talmud
1900 years before the present time. swhen
physicians are still struggling with them:

Power of a Swans Wing.

Swans" said John Lover of the Zoo.
"have great strength of wing. 1t is said
that with a blow of its wing a swan can

this is so. A doctor told me one day, as
we stood together by the Zoo lake. that one
of his first cases had been that of a man
whose arm a swan had broken with its
wing.

a club Both bones in the forearm were
broken; 1t was compound fracture.
