4 physician tells the Washington Post
it is a widespread but erroneous notion that
the growth Of ivy on the exterior walls of
residences creates damp habitation. He
is satisfied little reflection will convince
any one of the fallacy Of this proposition,
The ivy instead of contributing to damp
ness has rather>an opposite influence, since
it must extract moisture from the brick or
stone that it overruns The dampness of
these is what gives life to the plant, 50

Mexico's Finances all Right.

Mexico City. Foreign exchange is
now well under the control of the
government, which has $40,000,0OO
gold at It's disposal in New York, and
though it does not sell exchange it
has entrusted this business to the Ma
kional Bank of Mexico and whenever
The government requires two or three
million dollars here, the National Bank
will furnish it and will sell exchange
On New York at such rate as to keep
it below the maximum Of 1906 premium,
though it happened to be down close
10 100. Thus, in perfectly legitimate
manner the government can control
foreign exchange in the. market for
the benefit Of the public and this will
prevent continual fluctuations So dam
aging to all interests. Thus, it is
seen that the recent negotiations for
gold loans in New York was In close
rcation with the plans for money re-
