Whence "Strawherrv.0

The name strawberry has puzzled
good many people who like to find
the origin of names. Many suppose it
used to be the custom to string the
berries on straws and sell them in
that way, hence the name. But the
real name is strawberry, due to the

MYSTERIOUS Woman.

It is because it is always impossible
to know how a woman will act, to
grasp the workings of her mind, to
pierce the veil that hides the inner
most recesses of her soul, that she has

He can never definitely rely upon her.

PRODUCE MARKET
FIRM AND ACTIVE

The produce market yesterday was
firm. because the receipts. on account
OF bad weather. were smaller than the
demand on nearly everything. There
were exceptions to the rule, for in
stance. in eggs, which continued to
come in large quantities. This result
ed in a further decline, the good, fresh
variety from nearby points bringing
only II to Is cents per dozen In crate
lots. Poultry, because Of light receipts,
was a trde higher. and so was pretty
much everything else. Florida stuff
was in smaller receipt and little
higher.
There were practically no turkeys on
the market yesterday, and the prob
ability is that there will be very few
more of them this season.

ON THE LOCAL MARKETS
SMALLER BREAKS
OF LEAF TOBACCO

Harsh weather. bad roads and other
untoward circumstances combined to
make the leaf tobacco breaks very
small yesterday and the bidding rather
dull. The total sales amounted to less
than fifty thousand pounds, and in the
main only filters and the grades lower
than that were offered. Some of the
best prices obtainable ranged around
s13 to $14.

breaks to-day. They arerexpecting bet

STOCKS. BONDS

Richmond Dealers Not Material
ly Affected by Recent Slump
on Market.

Richmond dealers have not been ma.
terialy affected by the slump in stocks
for the reason that they are In the main
investors. Certainly there are few WHO
speculate on margin-that is to say,
limited capital-and 1t may be that some
of these have been touched up little.
But in the general run of the business
here, Richmonders buy when they think
stocks are cheap, pay for what they buy
and hold them until they yield a profit,
or until It is evident that loss is the
only hope. Instances of the latter kind
have been known; several of them.
Therefore when stocks go all to pieces
without any apparent good cause, us
seems to be the case in the present de-
cided slump, Richmond dealers simply
grin and endure" and walt for tho
turn to come, and In the end the biggest
| thing they lose Is time. In this instances
they have been losing a good deal Of
valuable time, for the turn has been
