STRIKE PROBLEM
Cut Pretty Much of Figure In
Stocks and Prices Sagged
Perceptibly.

New York. March 12.-Today's
stock market was left very largely IN
the hands Of professional operators
and those apparently of the smaller
class of room traders who are salts
fled to close up an operation on price
movement of a moderate fraction.
Trading was Of a mixed complexion
from the opening and prices began to
sag pretty promptly The threaten
ing aspect taken on by the labor con-
troversy in the anthracite field was
given credit for the hestitaing tone Of
the market. The character Of the
reply of the operators to the PROPOSE
ton fthe miners was so uncom-
promising that ii seemed TO offer little
room for further negotiations and the
anticipation gained force that a strike
would result Stock market comment
on the outlook was confined largely to
estimates of what the strike would
have on stocks. No notable effect was
produced today outside of the persist
emf saGgng tendency of Reading. This
stock started he day in London ! a

day The pressure which carried il
off 3a points gave no sign of urgency
but the stock was without effective
support at any time. The sympathe-
lice effect of this movement on the

considered not altogether clear in

belief that Mrs. Eddy is slowly dying

that an operation for the same malady

HOW DEBILITY SHOWS
And Why Or. Williams Pink Pills
Are Specific for Dangerous
Physical Declines.

The symptoms of general debility vary
according to the cause but weakness is
always present, tendency to perspire
and fatigue easily, ringing in the ears,
sometimes black spots passing before
the eyes, weak back, vertigo, wakeful-
ness caused by inability to stop thinking,
and unrefreshing sleep. The cause of
the trouble may be some drain on the
system or it may be mental or physical
overwork, sometimes insufficient nutri-
ton due to digestive disturbance. In
the latter case there is generallya loss Of
appetite and a coated tongue as well as
general languor and debility.
Miss Lula M. Metzger, a stenographer,
living at II Mill street, Watertown, r.,
suffered for over year from general
debility. at was caused by overstudy,"
she says, "and had no ambition, didn't
want to go anywhere, my food didn't
taste good, was run down, lifeless and
lstless. L took medicines but they failed
to help me. Finally friends recon-
mended DR.. Williams Pink Pills to my
mother and she got some for me. took
them for some time and was entirely
cured and have had no return of the
trouble"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cure debility
because they actually make new, red,
rich blood, and as the blood carries
nourishment to all the organs and tissues
of the body, nerves as well as muscles,
the new blood stimulates the organs to
do the work that nature expects of them
and normal health follows. Not only
is this treatment sufficient to cure de-
bilty but many severe nervous disorders
as well.

GATES OF HOME CLOSED TO THE WORLD
Following Published Story That Mrs. Mary Baker G.
Eddy Was at the Point of Death, Reporters Have
Interview suith Her at Her Hone-Sensationai Ale
cations of Fraud and Deception Denied-Aged
Woman in Comparatively Good Health

New York.-The World. of this city,
recently published a sensational story
to the effect that Mrs, Mary Baker G.
Eddy, the revered founder and head
of the Christian Science church, was
extremely feeble, physically and men
tally, and seemingly in the shadow of
death.
The allegation was made that the
daily drive seemingly taken by Mrs.
Eddy through the streets of Concord,
N. H., her home, was a fraud. The
World stated that ostensibly Mrs.
Eddy makes this daily public appear
snce, dressed in velvets and ermine,
to show her followers that she is in
perfect health. 1t is not Mrs. Eddy,
tuned for the part, who appears in the
exhibition drive.
The article continued:
This impersonator is now known
to be Mrs. Pamela j. Leonard, of
Brooklyn, head of the Christian Sci
ence church in that borough.
Mrs. Leonard has been an inmate
at Mrs. Eddy's home at Concord for
the last three years.
There she has perfected herself as
understudy to Mrs. Eddy, and has
lmpersonated the head of the Chris
tian Science church in the daily eX
hibition drives when to move the reaI
Mrs. Eddy from her bed would have
meant almost certain death to the en-

the curtain.
"'Do you drive daily?
"'Yes.'
AT that instant Frye caught her Of
bow and turned her toward the front
door. before which her carriage waited
to take her on her drive. Strang fell
in on the other side, and Mrs, Eddy
walked between them.
"'Have you the management of your
own affairs? asked the spokeswoman.
The question never was answered.
At the door Frye and Strang fell back.
Mrs. Eddy walked the width of the
piazza alone. Her gait had stately,
languid grace. hardly suggestive of
old age, but her hand shook badly as
Strang helped her to a seat In the
carriage.
when Mrs. Eddy had gone the re-
porters were shown over Pleasant
View house. When the reporters OF
the newspaper which printed the orig
inal story interviewed Mrs. Eddy last
week they saw, or thought they saw,

"The folding doors slid back, the

her cheeks sunken, every ounce of
spare fat gone from her face. The
long, pointed chin, characteristic of
Mrs. Eddy's face in youth, was as
beautiful as ever. So, indeed, were
the large eyes, and the long, finely-cut
nose. Over the face rose a mass of
perfectly white hair, crowned by a
white bonnet.

THE World has collected a mass of
facts bearing directly upon the sur
prising conditions that surround the
hidden life of Mrs. Eddy.

"These facts are quite apart from
the tenets of Christian Science, so
called, and will appeal as forcibly to
fair-minded members Of the cult as
to the general public.
MANY millions of dollars-just how
many the records fail to show-have
passed into Mrs. Eddy's personal pos
session since the founding of the
Christian Science cult. Millions OF
her books have been sold, and each
book has yielded her a royalty of one
dollar
From the mother church in Boston
she yearly receives a great sum, con-
tributed by devotees in all parts of
the world in the form of annual dues.
One of her closest friends and follow
ers estimates Mrs. Eddys fortune at
$15,0OO,0OO and her annual income at
$1,0OO.OO0.
"Of this vast sum there is practi-
cally no trace. There is no public rec
ord of its investment, no clew to its
distribution.
