THE RISE IN STOCKS.

An extraordinary rise has taken place
in stocks during the past u months.

ing shares have advanced from % to
100 points; some having doubled in val
ue during that period. Here are the adj
vances in a few of the active stocks,

in favor of a revision of the tariff Low

timer" asks Henry Clews in the Finan-
cial Review and then proceeds to reply
to his own question as follows: mo
doubt some of the shares in the list
were unduly depressed year ago. and
some of them have actually enjoyed a
very large measure of prosperity; but
no experienced financier pretends that
improved conditions justified such an
unusual advance as the above indi-
Gates. We have already fully discount
ed all the prosperity in sight, and the
stock market would be quite ripe for a
reaction were it not for the generally
satisfactory condition of business. for
easy money and the consequent strong
temper of optimism which prevails ev
erywhere. and which at any time may
easily run into a state of dangerous
over-confidence. lust now the market
presents a strong front, owing to skill
full manipulation by the professional ell
ement, although there are contingencies
in sight which might bring about a re-
action when least expected. Money
rates have continued easy so long that
no apprehension of difficulty exists in
that quarter: yet there is a drift in
tendencies that calls for watchfulness,
even in this direction

THE DISASTER AT MUKDEN.

The story of the fall of Mukden and
the disaster of Kuropatkin's army is
told in a few short paragraphs by the
Chicago Tribune as follows:
Nodzu gripped Kuropatkin's army
and held its shoulders in a wise while
kuroIi broke its back and Nogi crush
ed it's head. That tells the story of the
battle of Mukden-
Nogi marched his army of Port Ar
thur veterans around behind the screen
of battle raised by Oku's attack on the
Russian right, and Unexpectedly knock
ed at the gates of Mukden with the
bursting shrapnel from his guns.
Nogi attacked Mukden from the west.
He chose for his battle ground a bare.
treeless plain. twenty miles long and
verted into an inferno. He sowed the
frozen soil with shrapnel and burst
shells, fortified it with melinite, lyddite
and shimose. and irrigated It with Rus
sian and japanese blood, and then he
moved his crop with the seythe-like
sweep of six inch guns.
Out to this plain of the inferno went
kaulbarS and his men, to be welcomed
by NOgi with bloody hands The Rus
sian divisions were reduced to brigades,
brigades to regiments. regiments to
companies, companies to squads. Nogi's
men had no shelter. The soil was frozen
too deep for earthworks, and so they
piled up their dead in heaps and fought
their enemy from behind ramparts of
human bodies.
For six days and nights Nogi's men
chung to that in1lospitable expanse of
brown frozen earth-not only chung
there but extended their lines, inch by
inch, to the northward. until they reach
ed out and covered with their guns the
railroad that was Kuropatkin's line of
retreat to the haven of refuge at Tie
pass. Finally they cut and destroyed
that road
Oyama has other generals. There is

and drove the Russians from the fort
crowned slopes of Nanshan heights
There is Nodzu, who carried the re-
doubts in front of Liaoyang. There is
kuroki, who from the beginning of the
war has SCARED and scared and seam
ed the Manchurian landscape with bat
tie all the way from the Yalu to the
Hun.
But above all these there is Nogi-
who fought and tunneled and blasted
his way into Port Arthur, who destroy
ed a fleet of battleships who captured
fifty of the strongest forts ever con-
structed by a military engineer, and
who turned the Russian flank at Muk-
den.
No wonder Nogi's men swept the Rus
slams from that treeless plain west of
Mukden. They would not be denied.
They went into battle shouting. in Rus

Hot Water In Sickness.

No domestic remedy can equal
hot water in cases of congestion of
the lungs, rheumatism or sore throat
if tried promptly and thoroughly,
An acute attack of Group will be
usually relieved in ten minutes if
a towel OF strip of flannel folded
lengthwise and dipped into hot wa
ter, then slightly wrung out, be
placed around the neck of the suf-
ferer and covered so as to retain the
heat. The same placed over the
seat of pain will in most cases quick
ly give relief in neuralgia and tooth
ache and, laid over the stomach, acts
like magic in attacks Of collie. Head
ache almost always yields to the 81
multaneous application of hot water
to the back of the neck and to the
feet.

ALL OVEN tnC ROUSE.
Treatment of Children Afflicted With
Intestinal Worms,

Worms multiply rapidly in de-
bilitated persons, especially chill
dren, living in cold and damp re-
glons. Impure water, unripe fruits
and UNDERGONE meats are conducive
TO the development of worms. Sun
shine and heat are influences against
them. For the tapeworm the liquid
extract of fern root is highly recon-
mended; about scruple beaten up
with the yolk of one egg, a little wa
Ter and a teaspoon of sirup Of
orange peel. a decoction Of the
root of the pomegranate tree is good,
and oil of turpentine has been used
with success.
The large round worm which oc-
ours in the intestines is in appear
ance very much like the common
earthworm, sometimes reaching fif-
teen inches in length. Its mouth
is formed for suction, and it does
not work its way through the walls
of the intestines unless they are
diseased. Serious results, and even
death, are likely to follow if they
find their way up into the stomach.
A tea made from pumpkin seeds
is given to children with benefit.
Oil of turpentine is effective, and
santonine is one of the sure rene
dies. 1t may be obtained at the drug
gist's in the form of tablets or
lozenges. One may also give the
santonine in powder, from one-half
grain to two grains according to age
of child), with little rhubarb about
the size of pea.

a solution of lemon juice should
be on every toilet table, where lit
tie can be rubbed into the skin of
face and hands every night. 1t will
not only whiten but soften the GU
ticle. While taking a brief after
noon rest apply to the face and
hands paste made of magnesia and
lemon juice. This will produce the
same result.
Freckles yield to lotion made of
the juice of one lemon, teaspoon
full each of powdered borax and sug-
ar. Put these in a bottle and use
twice daily. Another combination
consists of an ounce each of pow
dered alum and lemon juice and. a
pint of rose water. Apply this two
or three times each day.

for bedrooms. They are made in
most artistic combinations Of color
by the craftsmen, and may be woven
to order in tones to match anyrooms
Rugs made Of old ingram carpet,
especially if the carpet be all wool,
are very satisfactory for simple
rooms and upstairs halls. The car
pet is cut into long strips about
an inch wide, the longer the better,
and rolled into balls for the loom.
When pieces are sewed the jennings
must be very neatly made. The
warp has to be very heavy to- hold
the carpet well, and care should be
taken that the weaver is good one.

A LITTLE NONSENSE.
The Spectators supposition Was Too
Much For the Listener.

Suppose" said the mental specu-
lator, putting down his book and
lighting fresh cigar, suppose a
child's father dies and its mother
marries the second time. Then the
child has stepfather and perhaps
stepgrandfather. Let us suppose,
further, that the stepgrandfather
dies or is divorced and the step
grandmother marries again. This
gives the child step-stepgrandfa-
ther, doesn't it? Then we'll say
that the child's mother dies and the
stepfather weds again. Now the
child has step-stepmether. BY fol-
lowing this process of reasoning
along few feet farther we can
equip that child with step-step-
grand-stepmother and step-grand-
step-step-stepmother, and a step
step-stepfather and a step-step-step-
father and step-step-step-gr grand
stepfather and"-
1t was at this point that the lis
tener stepped away with a stealthy
step, step, step, leaving the mental
Spectator still figuring out the
problem of what relation the step
uncle of the child's step-step-g grand
stepfather would be to the adopted
child of the stepsister of the step
step grand stepmother. - Chicago
