God is very good to us, John, said
Peter Burt. as he took his grandson's
hand and looked. through glad tears
into his face. His stern old face grew
tender as he turned to Jessie Garden.
"An old mans blessing on your
pretty head" he said, gently touching
the folds of her hair with his huge
palm. sYou are very beautiful, my
daughter. and it is Gods will that you

man in the front seat.

grave face of DR.. Hardness was
touched with smile of professional
pride, as he drew from an incision a
fiattened, jagged piece of lead. The

sleep, the awakening from which
meant so much in deciding for life

ugliest. They are the Pahouins, saw

as not to incommode him, he bestows

Their ingenuity. which is shown in the
construction Of scores of different
head-dresses of bone and metal for
the men of the tribe, chiefly the war
riors, is illustrated in a far greater de-

themselves beautiful is to shave the
head until it is smooth and round as

HONEST PHYSICIAN.

It is a mistake to assume that ply
sicians are always skeptical as to the
curative properties Of anything else
than drugs.
Indeed, the best doctors are those
who seek to heal with as little use
of drugs as possible and by the use
of correct food and drink. A physi-
clan writes from Calf. to tell how he
made a well man of himself with

NEW YORK. Oct 16.-The spirit of en-
terprise was practically dormant in the
stock market today and the amount of
business done was insignificant.
Habitual operators in stocks find no
encouragement to take part III the mar
ket in the face of the admonitory attitude
of bankers and influential capitalists, and
the cautlonary tone OF public comment
on froG the situation On the other hand,
the market seeking liquidation and pro-
fessional operators for this reason refrain
from attacks on the market in attempts
to get prices lower.
Today's immediate developments were
calculated to inspire respect for the con-
servative attitude maintained by great in
terests towards the market There was
no furry in the money market and no
active recall of credits calculated to force
Citations for money was clearly enough

and no new source of relief from the
money pressure was uncovered

money market proved unfounded and ap
parcntly the payments on that account
were quickly deposited and made their
reappearance in the money market. But

to the ultimate destination of the deposits
thus secured to the credit of the Japanese
government 1t Is the general supposition
that the proceeds of the earlier loan in
settlements, formerly deposit in New

mitted to foreign repositories, so that the

ing circles pointing to the end of the
year as the probable period for complet

The foreign exchange market was
notably strong today and this prompted
an inference that preparations were al
ready making for remittances of the jap
anese funds. The supply of bills for ex-
change also comes from former borrow
upon as supply of exchange at this time
to buy bills at a profit for repayment of
other loans. This course of events has
led to the definite abandonment of the
hope of securing any additional gold for
New York in the immediate future, and
it is generally believed that no further
supplies are likely to be secured for the
rest of the year.
1t is plain that the Bank of England
has secured definite control of the Lon

advance in the bank rate of discount on
Thursday.
The inelasticity of the market was
conspicuous feature and the small early
declines were rather more than recovered
