STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
holiday Influence Deadens Trad
 ing Except for Opening Squirt.

New York Dec, 24-The stock ex- change might almost as well not have been in session to-day for anything that was accomplished. There was slight spurt of activity in the first hour and after that the market became le- thargic. The pre-holiday influence was partly responsible for this, although there was lacking the usual trimming process caused by closing up of ac- counts over the holiday, such out standing accounts being apparently at a minimum. This probably explained
 the small effect comparatively of the stringent state of the money market of prices. Underlying strength was ln- ferable from this resistance of the
 market to the influence of the money
 conditions. The day was almost de-
 void of incident. There was some spe-
 cial weakness in the railroad and elec-
 trical equipment stocks, which was
 traceable easily to the fears of cutting down of outlay by the railroads to keep pace with the declining tendency of earnings, now clearly in evidence. Re- l DOIlS OI IGQuCtlDl Ol9 MOA AAllE ACA NS AAA
 factories or total shut-downs in some cases pointed to the same conclusions as to the course of industrial affairs.
 The abstract of condition of national
 banks throughout the country shown
 by responses to the controllers call 4 for December 3 was regarded as reas-
 suring as to the condition of the bank

THE REASON
Why Hull's Corner Drug Stores Con-
 tlnue to Recommend Vinol.

First: Because it is not patent medicine and 1t contains besides tonic iron of all the medicinal curative ele- ments of cod liver oil actually taken from fresh cods livers, but without a drop of oil to nauseate and upset the stomach and retard it's work; there- fore, wherever old-fashioned cod liver oil or emissions will do good, Vinol will do far more good.
 Second: Because Vinol acts first up- on the stomach. creates healthy ap- petite, strengthens and tones up the digestive organs, purifies and enriches the blood, and, in natural manner restores health and strength.
 Third: Because vinol contains no in jurious drugs to react upon the sys- tenn; every ingredient being named on the label, a patient knows exactly what he is taking.
 Fourth: Because we never sold any thing in our store that gave such uni versal satisfaction for old people, weak, sickly women and children, nursing mothers. and to build up the system after @ severe sickness, and for re- lteving hacking coughs, chronic colds, bronchitis and all throat and lung troubles.
