NEW YORK, November 2O.-Yesterday's
two pronounced and well-defined swings
In prices were succeeded in today's stock
market by a number of backing and filling
movements, which were equally difficult OF
description and comprehension. However.
II was again the case that the more strik-
ing changes in prices were toward higher
levels.
During the greater part of the business
session the trading was upon consider
ably reduced scale In comparison with yes
terday and was given q more professional
character. Thesdealings also showed some
shifting of speculative interests from the
stocks which have recently been the leaders
In point OF activity into new directions.
Notwithstanding that, however, the Union
Pacific st. Paul and Reading continued to
furnish a large proportion OF the days
total transactions.
At the opening Of business speculative
sentiment was plainly confused by yester-
day afternoons furry In the money mar
ket and by the reactionary tone OF the
London stock market. The latter was not,
however very pronounced. and seemed to
be occasioned by the engagement of f5OO.0O0
gold for shipment to Brazil later In the
week On this account most departments
of the London stock market were easier,
and great irregularity was shown in the
American quarter.
The operations here for foreign account
were on both sides of the market, but
showed again small preponderance OF
purchases. Following upon the opening
of the market there were, as already men

THE ordinary woman's voice is a
thing to shudder at" remarked the
professor of voice culture.
80 is the ordinary mans, snapped
Miss Woman's Rights vindictively.
That's where you are mistaken, .
asserted the professor, "but even were
you right the ordinary mans voice
would be less unpleasant, because he
gables less. But l persist in my orig
inal assertion. The ordinary uncul-
tured man may murder the kings Eng
pressions or gestures, but he does not
shrek or cackle or laugh like a hyena
every few minutes, and the quality Of
his voice is not such that it goes
through you like a file. Even if his
voice is loud it somehow or other is
not so bad. There are loud voices and
loud voices, and it is the shrill, insistent
kind that drives you almost crazy.
"a short while ago there was a dis
cussion about what should or should
not be taught in the public schools.
Some parents objected to so many
fancy courses for the children of
those in straitened circumstances.
But no one thought Of Introducing, in
stead of drawing or music, a still more
important raining-namely, that of
teaching growing girl children how to
pitch their voices so that they would
neither be shrill, nasal nor loud and
vulgar. Do you tell me it does not
| matter what sort of voice the future
wives and mothers Of this generation
are going to have? Thep you haven't
any nerves yourself, my dear madam.
You never heard a shrill voiced woman
nagging her children into q state of
nervous frenzy. You never saw the
effect of a loud, jarring voice on the
sensibilities Of a man tired out from a
hard days work.

A Hunming Bird,s Umhrella.

In front Of a window where l work
ed one summer was a butternut tree.
A humming bird built her nest on a
limb that grew near the window and
we had an opportunity to watch her
closely-in fact, we could look right
into the nest. One day when there
was a heavy shower coming up we
thought we would see if she covered
her young during the rain. Well, when
the first drops fell, she came and took
In her bill one Of two or three large
leaves growing close by and laid this
leaf over the nest so as to completely
cover it. Then she few away On
examining the leaf we found a hole IN
it, and in the side of the nest was q

to or hooked upon. After the storm
was over the old bird came back and
unlocked the leaf and the nest was

BACK FROM INDIA
H. C. Ozanne Returns for a Visit
in the County After Spend
ing Years as Missionary
BRINGS BRIDE FROM ORIENT

H. G. Ozanne, formerly of the town
Of Somers, but for the last seven years
| a worker in the mission fields of India,
has returned to Kenosha for an ex-
| tended visit with friends in the city
and county. DR.. Ozanne brings with
| him his wife, who he married after en-
| tering the mission work and who is
now making her first visit with the
| people of this county.
Dr. Ozanne was formerly one of the
best known young men of the town of
! Somers and after graduating from
Northwestern University al Evanston
he decided to give up his life to the
work Of missions and went to India as
a representative Of the, Methodist
church in Somefs. Since that time
he has given his1entire time to the ad-
Ivancement of the mission work in
India. While working as medical
missionary he has done much to ad-
orient. The medical missionaries are
forced to live life Of great self denial
and much of their time is given over
to teaching the native doctors.
DR.. Ozanne and his wife will remain
/ for some weeks in Kenosha and DUR
ing this time it is probable that he
will appear in severa1s of the Metho-
dist churches and tell the story Of his
work in India.
DR.. Ozanne tells many interesting
facts in regard to the spread Of the
mission work in India.
i During the last decade the Metho.
dist church has taken a great interest
in India and this denomination more
than any other has been working to
better the conditions Of the people Of
] that great country. Schools and
churches have been built and colleges
opened. More than two hundred
Iconsecrated Methodist men and wo
men are now at work in these schools
while nearly every church has its
pastor and teacher. Thousands oil
dollars have been contributed by the
Methodists of Kenosha county fol
this work and it is evident that the
money is being we'll spent.

They Should Find No Favor With
Nervous, Anaemic People.
1t is said by some physicians that
good deal Of the insomnia, extreme
thinness and general debility from
which Americans suffer is due to the
various fasting fads. Here a man
goes without breakfast. there a wo-
man makes a point of going hungry
to bed Another Systematically omits
a meal at MONDAY, and so it goes
Where people are constitutionally be-
low par and in position where they
can only hope to maintain a fair de-
gree of efficiency by keeping up their
vitality such stunts are Of ques-
tionable virtue. Sturdy full blooded
people, with iron nerves and digestions
that can negotiate nails, may try starv-
ing themselves with impunity perhaps
Thin, anaemic, nervous people, on the
other hand, generally need all the food
they can eat and all the blood they
can make. If such people would eat
before going to bed they would gener-
ally see an increase in vigor, for the
reason that while the wear and tear Of
the body were suspended digestion and
assimilation would still be going Oh.
In other words, the body would be
making more tissue than it DESTROYED:
hence an increase in blood, in weight
and in health. At least that's the
way one physician explained things to

piled to him 'all run down" New

Oratory In the Commons.

One of the London weeklies laments
the decay Of oratory in the house OF
commons. An observer has classified
the styles Of parliamentary speaking
thus: "Haw haw" style, the "hum and
haw'' style and the che haW' style
The first, he says. is used by the
naughty gentlemen who loll in triumph
on the treasury bench, the second dis
tinguishes the utterances of the keen
and watchful gentlemen on the front
opposition bench, while the third sort
fairly describes the effort of the pri.
yate member.

LONG WALK IN OFFICE.

Average Business Man Covers Vast
Territory In a Year.
eff I had d cent for every mile I
walk during Office hours every day Id
soon be able to retire. is a remark
frequently heard from men and wo-
men who are kept on their feet while
at business. The general impression is
that the distance travelled daily is very
great. And so it may be. But the sim
pie experiment Of carrying a pedome-
ter for few weeks will probably
show that ones income at a cent a
mile would not be worth collecting I'M
til the end of a year.
a downtown Office man has just fin
ished an experiment of this nature He
carried a pedometer six. weeks, regis
tering its total each night At the end
Of that time it was found that the dis
lance Travelled, though varying greatly
from day to day, came to a fairly even
average at the end Of each week.
How many miles do you suppose he
walked on the day of his highest rec
ord? Twenty? Thirty? Fifty? No,
only nine miles. The lowest record
came the very next day and was a
mile and a half But the average for
each week was thirty-three and one
third miles, or an average of six and a
half miles Tor each working day. The
six weeks showed totals as follows:
1919, 2712, 81, "a, 3215, 80, or an aggre-
gate Of 200 miles and a half mile over.
AT the end OF six weeks, therefore, he
would have collected 50 at a cent a
mile
In the course Of a year this office
travelling represents an impressive
walking tour, with it's total Of 1,733
miles If made as a continuous trip
across country it would take him from
New York to Bismarck, n. D., or to

The Lost Golf Ball.

"Once in Scotland" said a profess
sional golf player, 81 saw a lost ball
cause a great commotion. Over there,
you know, lost ball means lost hole.
Two professionals were playing, and
one of them lost ball in the tall
grass. He searched for it a long time.
Nearly half an hour passed. His oppo-
nent kept urging him to admit that the
ball was lost and to forego a hole, but
this The other refused to do. And final
ly, with triumphant laugh, he pounc-
ed down. fumbled ii the weeds and
rose with a ball in his hand
"Here's my ball. I've found my
ball. he shouted.
eyer a liar, said the other profess
sional, for I've got it here in my peck

A FAMOUS OLD HYMN.
Pathetic Origin of "BIest Be the Tie
That Bfnds.n

Ragnet1c origin OF "Biest Be the Tie
That Binds.o
A pathetic and yet charming story is
told of the origin of the we'll known
hymn, "Blest Be the Tie That Binds"
which was written by Rev. John Faw-
cett, an English Baptist, who died in
1917, having spent nearly sixty years
in the ministry.
1t was in 1772, after a few years
spent in pastoral work, that he was
called to London to succeed the Rev.
Dr.. gill; His farewell sermon had
been preached near Moinsgate, in
Yorkshire. Six or seven wagons stood
loaded with his furniture and books,
and all was ready for departure.
But his loving people were heart
broken Men, women and children
gathered and clung about him and his
family with sad and fearful faces.
Finally, overwhelmed with the sorrow
of those they were leaving, Dr. Faw'
cett and his wife sat down on one Of
the packing cases and gave way to
grief.
"Oh, John" cried Mrs. Fawcett at
last, Il cannot bear this! know not
how to co.
Nor l either" returned her hus-
band, sand we will not go. The wag-
ons shall be unloaded and everything
put in its old place"
His people We're filed with intense
joy and gratitude at this determina-
ton. DR.. Fawcett at once sent a let
ter to London explaining the case and
then resolutely returned to his work
on a salary of less than 5000 year
This hymn was written by DR.. Faw-
cett to commemorate the event.

The Idle Woman.

It's wonderful what a great tonic
being busy is. It takes your mind off
your own cares and gives you no time
to fancy you are ailing or miserable.
'.'The worst curse a woman can have
is an idle, empty life devoid Of live in
terests,' | heard a busy woman say
the other day, and as looked at her
slender, active figure, full Of life and
energy, I wished more women were
like her.
j You will need no antifat treatment
or beauty or nerve specialists if you
only keep bright and busy all the time.

The new plan of rates of the En-
dlowment Rank of the knights of

of the Supreme lodge at New Orleans
in October, is to be submitted to the

ent rates in class by themselves, but
"a more adequate rate will be urged.
The plan will also provide for the is
snance of investment contracts and

ments on the established fraterna1
practice. Eminent actuaries have
approved the report, which is ex-
pected to be used by other fraternals
as the basis for needed changes. The
present rates of the Endowment Rank
are the National Fraternal Congress-
net rates, with deduction of 10 per
gent for expenses.
The Kenosha Pythians will go to
New Orleans in special Pullman

have special car. 1t is expected

dOwment Rank Of the Knights Of
