Rather noteworthy strength in the Steel shares was attributable partly to the good showing made in the days full compilations of the country's iron production during October Last mouths production is shown to have been GOO tons ahead of September, where September increased only 5900O tons over August, and It's total output was much the largest of any month since last November. But on the other hand, comparison of the october pro- duction in 1908 with that of October
 1907, shows only gradual Improvement over similar comparisons in previous months. Last months 1888 o0o-ton out put compares with 23ST,o0O in the pre- ceding october.

Stocks Fed Out Freely With Disposi-

New York. Nov 5,--The stock market to-day gave plain signs of feeling the effect of the speculative pace wnich was set for 1t yesterday and finally became unsettled and hesi- tatng The total of that business fell away considerably from the large az gregate Of yesterday and the decrease evidently marked the satisfaction of the first eager speculative demand in- duccd by the election results. Stocks were fed out freely to meet this de- mand from the outset. All bids were filled promptly, according to the def nition of brokers on the floor. After wards there was q disposition to push the sales al concessions. The impres- sion thus made of the market having arrived at a stage that discounts the favorable factors was emphasized by its action in response to the announce ment of the plan for disbursing tl1.26 extra profits on each snare of old Northern Pacific stock, the new stock on which the final 12 l-2 per cent. of subscriptions is payable in January not sharing in the melon" Northern Pacific itself had sold as high as 150 1-2 after the opening. but fell to 148 IA before the dividend announce ment was made and did not rally above

When the news of the large extra dividend of s11.26 a share on old North- ern Pacific stock was announced, about 1:4j D. rn. the stock was selling around 14S 1-2: it instantly jumped to l49 then fuctuated up and down fractionally. Wall street has expected for some time that the extra Northern Pacific divl- dend. if declared, would be 10 per cent At times. the difference between the selling prices of the old stock, which receives that dividend, and the new stock, which does not, would be more than 10 points. For nearly an hour be- fore the $l1.26 cash dividend was an nounced the old stock was quoted ex- actly ii S-4 points higher than the new which showed that somebody knew what the dividend rate would be, and was operating in the market of the basis of his knowledge, In other stocks than Northern Pacific, the declaration of this extra dividend seemed to be a signal for realizing profits. The action receives very scant approval in con- servative quarters.

Dilated pores so disfigure the upper part
of the cheeks, nostrils. and sometimes
even the chin, that contracting them be-
comes necessary if woman's face is to
have any effect of freshness or pretti-
ness.
To diminish their size successfully is one
of the most tedious things in connection
with the achieving of beauty. for there
are so many different reasons for en-
larged pores, and the improvement shows
only after such a long period. that the
average person often gives up in despair
before the remedy has been fairly tried.
OF the causes for this blemish indi-
gestion is possibly the most common, and
is brought on by an excess of rich food or
stimulating drinks. Beer or ale affects
some persons skin in precisely this way.
while greasy food. such as fried dishes
or gravies. will make large pores. This is
easily understood when one realizes that
more fat is taken into the system than
can be thrown off in normal manner
through the liver, and so it makes its
way through the pores of the skin. en-
larging them, and causing the complexion
to be oily, the latter an invariable accom-
paniment of dilated pores.
Failure to keep the skin perfectly clean
may be another cause of this difficulty,
and to obviate it the flesh must be thor
oughly washed to remove the dust from
the pores, as they cannot throw out the
dirt unassisted. Pores. it must be remem-
bered. are like tiny lungs. and give air to
the skin. Clog them, and they struggle
for breath and this causes dilation. 1t is
impossible to prevent dust getting on the
skin through the day, and therefore great
care must be taken to clean the pores a,
night. 1t is because a complexion brush
does this SO successfully that its use is
advocated. These brushes should not be

Whole, Rich Milk.

Van Camps is simply rich Holstcin
milk, with two-thirds the water evap-
Grated. Nothing is altered, nothing add
ed-no sugar, no starch, no preservative.
This is not like condensed milk,
which is half sugar. Van Camps is
nothing but milk.
Analysis will show about 30 per cent
of solids, of which s per cent is butter
fat.
Compare that with milkman's milk.
Milk that stands awhile separates
The butter fat rises and the solids fall.
So you get one kind of milk from the top
of the milk can-another when served
from the middle. From no part of the
can do you get the whole milk.
That's why raw milk never gives in
cooking the flavor you get from Van
Camps.

For Milk Dishes.

Once use Van Camps in making a
milk dish and you will never again be
content with raw milk
The dcliciousness will be a surprise
to you, for raw milk was never so rich.
The sole reason is this: In Van
Camps you are getting the whole, rich
milk-al of the butter fat, all of the
solids. You get nothing else, for Van
Camps is nothing but milk.
Please write to us for our Cook
Book, telling how to make all sorts of
milk dishes and giving the cost of each.

With such a brush, warm water and

tract large pores and will also prevent
their dilation, if the trouble has net al

is very strong and overuse of it will be
very injurious. SO the application of some

However much one may disbelieve in
the vegetarian diet. there is no question
that persons who conform to it, as a rule.
have beautiful skin. Their flesh is clear
and fresh, with an entire absence of the
greasiness so usual with meat eaters.
Meat, necessary as it is to most persons,
is eaten too much. To partake of it once
day is enough for any but those who do
the hardest kind of manual labor. Fish.
eggs and poultry should take the place OF
beef. lamb, mutton and pork if the COM
plexion is to be considered. and as all
three of these substitutes are nourishng
there will be no danger of impoverishing
the system by their use.
remembering that the simplest and
most wholesome diets are essential, and
that it takes weeks. and even months for
change to go through the system, the
woman who is trying TO reduce the pores
on her face can turn her attention - ex-

tons such as toilet waters. are astrn-
gent. but for this very reason they may
bring trouble by causing wrinkles There
is no danger of this occurring while the
skin is greasy. but if there is pro-
nounced feeling of tightness after using
an astringent it should be put aside as
being too drastic. A few drops of ben
zoin in the water for washing the face is
good.

A Germless Milk.

Van Camps is germless milk.
Every cow is inspected-so are the
men who milk them. No tubercular
cows, no diseased milkmen, convey their
infections to Van Camps Milk.
Our dairies are sanitary. Our fac
tories, where the milk is evaporated, are
built without wood. We make bust
. ness of cleanliness.
Then the milk is sterilzed after the
cans arc sealed. Not germ of any kind
can remain in it.
Compare that with milkman's milk.
A single germ, left in milk a few
hours, breeds millions of others like it.
So there are myriads of germs in every
drop of raw milk.
If the COW is tubercular, there are
germs of consumption. If the milk cans
are washed in impure water, there are
germs of typhoid.
If the milkman is diseased, or the
dairy uncleanly, the infections are bound
to be conveyed in the milk.
A very large share of the illness in
the world is known to be due to milk.
All of these dangers are wiped out
completely when a home adopts Van
Camps Milk.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1908-09-14

Van Camps is as thick as thick
cream. So thick that you add one part
water for coffee. Yet it doesn't cost half
what you pay your milkman for cream.
Add two parts water and you have
rich milk. The cost of such milk, when
YOU buy Van Camps by the case, runs
about six cents per quart.
Then you have no waste-no milk
left over. That saving alone is enor-
nous. SO the home that uses Van
Camps Milk spends less than the home
that doesn't.

WILL SOON ASSEMBLE HERE
COMMISSION ON BETTERMENT
OF COUNTRY LIFE.
Prof. Bailey Finds That He Can Ac-
cept the Presidents Invitation
to Act as Chairman.

Prof. L. II. Bailey head of the New
York State College of Agriculture at Cor
| nell University. has accepted the Presi-
dents appointment as chairman of the
| commission on country life, organized
about a month ago. Prof. Bailey de-
| clined the appointment when first made
| on account of the pressure of other Cuties
but has since been able to arrange his
affairs SO as to take on the new duties
| The commission stands now as appointed
by the President and will hold it's frs,
| meeting in Washington probably within
one week.
All the members of the commission
have been students of the agricultural
conditions of the country for many years
and are regarded as experts. Every art
of the country will be represented in the
| meetings.
Members of the Commission.
DR.. Kenyon l.. Butterfield, president OF
the Massachusetts Agricultural College
| represents the east: Henry Wallace OF
Des Moines, Iowa. the west. and Waite,
H. Page, the magazine editor who came
from North Carolina. the south.
In addition, the members will bring
! widely different viewpoints regarding tn.
questions they will consider. Mr. Wal
lace, the editor of a farm journal is the
actual farmer OF the group. DR.. Balley
and Dr. Butterfield are scientific agri-
culturists and deep students of economic
conditions as they affect rural life. Mr..
Page for several years has been observing
the progress of the country in agricul-
ture and has kept in touch with the COM
merce of farm products and the legiSla-
ton that affects these subjects. Clifford
Pinchot chief Of the forestry bureau, has
a wide knowledge of rural conditions
especially in the western sections. and
his experience as an organizer will be
of great value to the new commission.
Scope of the Commission.
The Presidents letter to Prof. Bailey
outlined the general character of the
work of the commissioned gather all
available information on the present con-
dition of country life; to recommend
means of supplying such deficiencies as
are found to exist. and to suggest meth
DDS of organized permanent effort in
further Investigations and actual work
which will result in making life on the
farms more attractive and profitable
None of the members of the commits
sion believes that agriculture is on the
decline or that country life is lacking in
efficiency, but they say that up to this
time there has not been so much con-
structive attention paid to the better
ment of rural conditions as to those in
cities, and that as a result the inStitu-
tons and social affairs of rural COM
munities have not kept pace with the de-
velopment of the country as a whole
The commissions first deliberations,
therefore, very likely will concern means
of securing for agricultural interests their
proper share of the attention that is
given to public affairs.
