A tradition attached to maids OF
honor is that they invariably marry
well. Their position at court brings
them into contact with highly eligible
parties, and an old custom dating back
for centuries .ordains their royal mis-
tress to provide a dowry Of 81, 900 on
their wedding day-P. T. %.

We look for an aggressive attempt
by the bears today to bring about new
low levels all around in view of the
admittedly inadequate demand for
even the best of securities whenever
pressed for sale. While tomorrow's
remarks by the president may be &C
copied with more favor, there need be
doubt that the administrations war
warfare on the Standard Oil company
and Mr.. Hartman will continue IN
abated Therefore, especially in view
Of the stringent money market, We do
not look for any permanent improve
ment until some new and important
influence overtakes the situation, such
as an investment demand on the part
of the public, a change of position by
the bear leaders or aggressive support
by banking interests. We look for con-
siderable unsettlement today and would
not advise the purchase even of the
leading rails except on breaks and for
turns At the same time the good
stocks are too cheap to go short of
and the bear party has such a wide
following that frequent rallies on
short covering will afford opportunity
to turn such purchases at a profit.

There is very little to add to Sat
urday's letter; the market was higher
in the morning. but the rally did not
hold. Wall street is disposed to wait
and hear what President Roosevelt
has to say. Mr.. Taft's talk has been
discounted, though of course the big
interests could use 1t as pretext
either for another jab or for a rally,
as they see fit.

The appearance of the presidents
speech was anticipated by a selling
movement under which between IL:
and noon prices went as low or lower
than they had been in the first hour
Trading then came almost to a stand
still. on the first ihstallment of the
speech, prices rallied half to one and
one-half per cent and on subsequent
parts of it they reacted again. 1t took
upwards of half an hour to get the
whole of the speech in its right or
der, and then the market evidently
could not make up its mind whether
to feel assured or not.

Secretary Taft's speech was nothing
else than expected; he being one of
the administration could say nothing
else, and in no other language. 1t is
a pity that the government only woke
up to all these conditions just within
the past year or so, for everyone was
aware of the wrong doing for the
last twenty years. However, the old
adage may be applied, 1T is never too
late to do good"

Tafts talk on tariff revision as the
policy of the administration and as the
slogan for the next campaign, is very
bearish on all the industrials, and it
more or less indicates that Roosevelts
speech today will be even more radi-
cal and drastic. In addition to this
the fight on Hartman and Rockefeller
will go on, and the supreme court of
the United States will be revised, so
as to give decisions in conformity with
the Roosevelt ideas, in fact "Roose-
welt is the only Moses, and am his
successor, and happy is the party that
has leaders like we are" and to perdi-
tion with Wall street. But this is the
very first time Washington has even
mentioned Wall street; it looks like
the beginning of a fight.

Jefferson Seligman of J. & w. Selig-
man said today that he regarded Mr..
Tafts speech as very moderate and
very reasonable and thought that it
ought to go far towards restoring con-
fidence. Mr. Taft, he thought, made
it clear that there was no idea on the
part of the administration Of attack
ing legitimate business undertakings.
It was not unexpected that the secre-
tary repudiated belief in government
ownership of railroads, but he went
further than that in expressing his
opinion that the physical valuation
possessed by the railroads today was
pulled up to the total of securities upon
which returns were made to investors
Mr. Seligman said: "A significant
characteristic of Mr.. Taft's address, it
seems to me. is the stress he lays
upon the more favorable side of ex-
listing situations, as shown in the diff
ference he points out between Illegal
combinations and those which are
benefit to the public. His favoring
railroad agreements. approved by the
Interstate commerce commission. and
his disposition to reject too radical
and too hasty legislation to cure any
existing evils"

To be well set dining table needs
centerpiece Of some sort. whether
1t be flowers, fruit or simply q dish
have the table look attractive only
when there are guests. In spite OF
all the hurry and hustle with which
Americans are credited. they are be-
ginning to appreciate the value Of nice
table appointments and look upon =
prettily decorated table as conducive
to a good appetite. And there IL NO
doubt that this II really 30: many .

BILE linen and bunch Of flowers in
the center. The whole atmosphere Of
the dining room IL affected by 1t.
As q matter OF fact 1t is not such
an expensive matter to have q GEN.
terpiece for the table even In winter,
for even, fhen there il usually fruit, and
1t is most effective to have a basket
or fancy dish Of apples and oranges
ON the table. Most people in these
fruit-loving days keep a supply on
hand, and as table ornament bas-
ket of highly polished apples is not
TO De despised.
Some people object to forced
blooms because they think 1t spoils
the pleasure in natural blooms when
their season comes. but there is al
ways an easily distinguishable differ-
ence between hot-house and outdoor
flowers which makes the latter all the
more welcome when they come.
Where the party at table is small
1t Is never well to have high center
piece of flowers. Conversation around
the corner Of a large bunch Of flowers
is stilted and uncomfortable. Where
the party is large 1t does not make SO
much difference. because there are
other people to talk to besides those
directly opposite.
White lilacs are perhaps the most
delicately beautiful flowers Of the ad-
vance season for table decorations.
They are very graceful when massed
in a large bowl or in tall vase, and
they light very well indeed. being
most effective as a background for
handsome silver and cut glass. Their
odor, while fragrant. is SO subtle that

pie Proceeding.

Josiah Main, a grandson of the first
settled minister OF Rochester, N. H.,
whose bronze statue adorns the cen.
tral square of that thriving city, was
a local character, celebrated for his
wit and skill in argument and as cum
ming in his speech as jamie Soutar
the Drumtochty cynic.
On one occasion a company had
gathered at the popular grocery
among whom were Elder Runnals and
'Sfah Main. and a bet of two quarts OF
rum was made as to who could pray
the best, the elder or Main.
All had taken several portions OF
rum or else 1t is hardly likely that
the elder would have consented to join
in the sacrilegious test. The elder
prayed first, and his petition was SO
long, loud and fervent that consid.
cradle crowd gathered before he fin.
ished.
Then Main began and prayed with
so much greater fervor and eloquence
that he easily won the bet. The elder
declared he didn't see how he did 1t.
Why" declared Main. Il began
where you left on. and put in what
you left out, and that's how did
it."
