Chocolate Hint.

The reason that so many persons
find chocolate and cocoa indigestible
is the undercooking that they receive,
About IL per cent. of the chocolate
bean is starch, and starch needs cook
ing before going into the human stom

least ten minutes before the milk Is
put in. Then the milk is only brought
to the scalding point.

NEW York May 1J.-After an early
display of strength. in which round ad-
vances were scored by large number OF
the leading shares. the stock market de-
veloped decidedly reactionary tendencies.
On this second movement declines we'll in
excess of one point were fairly general
although they were quite unaccounted
for. except by the temporary excess of
prott-realiZing sales over new buying
orders. In fact, the day was quite bare
of novel developments of any consequence.
Little attention was accorded to the adj
ditional engagements of gold for export
and the money market was again unaf-
fected thereby. or by the prospect that
tomorrow's bank statement may show
check TO the rising tide Of reserves.
The usual dividend for the current quar-
ter was declared on Standard OIL stock
and similar announcements. together with
the days returns of railway earnings
furnished about all the news there was
relating to particular stocks.
London Irregular.
The London stock market was equally
irregular as that in New York American
shares were quoted at mixed changes in
comparison with New York's closing
prices Of yesterday. and operations here
by the arbitrage, firms were conducted
upon both sides of the account
The passage by the House of Repre-
sentatives at Washington yesterday of
the emergency currency bill appeared to
attract not the smallest amount of atten-
ton.
There was pronounced falling away

upon rather small number Of stocks.
Along Technical Lines.
1t was probably true however, that so
Tar as the market at large was con-
cerned explanations of the course of
prices were confined to technical lines.
There were some exceptions to the gen
eral drift of the market. cases in point
being B. and o.. Illinois Central, Penn
sylvania. Denver & Rio Grande Sugar
Refining and Westinghouse Electric.
Western Union was also firm in the
early part of the day on the somewhat
belated recognition Of the importance OF
the restoration of the agreement be-
tween that company and the Pennsyl-
vania lines.
The Traction shares were not con-
spicuous in the days dealings and NOV

issues showed the same degree of ir-
regularity which was displayed by the
share list.
