NEW YORK STOCKS
STRONG AT LAST
Slight Reaction in Afternoon
Proves But a Temporary
Affair.

NEW YORK. March 5.-CIose-The
reaction which started soon after noon
was only temporary. Professionals
seemed to think that after the strong
lise Of the morning a setback was
due, and the majority Of them pre-
pared for a turn. But the market was
TOO buOyant for even weighted life pre-
servers 10 sink Most of the issues,
after about an hour and a half OF
weakness, turned strong and the mar
ket closed near the highest of the day
with some stocks trailing behind the
leaders
The market as yet is almost wholly
professional, though this morning some
commission house business was placed
on the rise. Opinion was quite general
that the UptuTn was due TO manipula-
tions, the object OF which viii soon APP
pear. but the strong tone OF the market
which stubboruly resisted the reaction
in the early afternoon is in evidence to
show returning confidence and the hope
OF better conditions for a time.
General Electric, Shelters. and the
Pacific railroads We're the leaders of the
market today.

the gong at noon the last of the shorts
seemed to have covered his threateded

prices began TO recede by small frac-
tiuns. The loss was not great, for the
market IS very steady.
The movement is probably only tenn
pOIaTy, as at the present time most of

NEW YORK. March Stocks open
ed strong this morning. in continue
tion Of the upward movement which
started at noon yesterday and gained
Roadway up to the closing hour last
night. Gains were in most instances
limited to fractions. but the rise was
noted on all the prominent stocks which
have been active in the past few days.
The opening was from Il to y point
up. and from the opening the advance
was held steadily 10 the noon hour.
During all this time the tone Of the
market was strong, with the prices Of
the principal railroad stocks, Shelters
and several of those in the Industrial
list climbing slowly up the ladder. There
was no liquidation on the advance. In
fact, most traders were OF the opinion
that the movement was one of manipu-
latiUR TO drive in the shorts. but IS the
morning hours advanced, il became
more and more evident that tie market
AS a whole was holding together re-
markedly well. and that the be-ter tone
affected all stocks alike.
ShreWd ones were looking Tor some
development which would promise 10
carry stocks up from I'VE 10 eight
points rumOrs Of which have been
bruited about Wall Street for the past
three OF four days.
Some OF the traders, who, Of late.
have. been inclined TO attribute every
movement ia the stock market TO some
thing political, gave as reason Tor
the better feeling in the market the
visit of Secretary TAFT to New York
and the confidence which his speech
and conversations with prominent men
here inspired.
This visit. with the overwhelming SEN
timent registered for Taft in his home
state, seems 20 satisfy this clement or
spectators. and they seem ready 10
accept the view that the market has
really broken from the low and sag
glng conditions of the past ten days,
and IS really on the 60 for better
prices.
Coupled with this is the passing OF
the fear of hostile legislation at Wash
ingtOu and Albany, which has hung
over the financial district for many
DAYS. IL has come TO be accepted here
that statesmen. both at the national
and State capitals. have no clear ideas
of what they want TO do, and viii
therefore do nothing.
This impression has been OF immense
relief to Wall Street, and the response
of the market to that statement comes
as near as it can be determined TO be
ing the real cause OF the better feel
ing today.
Mining stocks were firm IN the foreign
market and in New York. The gold
shares led in a fairly active market
on the curb. Wheat was up Z cent

FAMOUS BEAUTY SPECIALIST
Gives Advice to Women Lacking In
 Energy and Vitality.

Thousands of women are using toi- let preparations unsaeeeSsfally.
 Cosmetics fail to improve their thick muddy eomplexionS or to ban ish the pimples, bIaekheadS and crows feet
 No wonder. The trouble lies far deeper than the skin. They have bad blood, and bad blood in go per cent of the mucuoQs membrane Their blood is filled with poison which is certain to break out in unsightly humors and blotches while pale drawn faces, deep circled eyes, stopping shoulders and weak backs complete the story of suf- fering and despair.
 Inflammation of the mucous mem- brane is catarrh, Banish catarrh and complexions will clear as if by magic. pain vanish, eyes will brighten, faces become plump and shoulders erect. Perfect beauty goes only with perfect health, and perfect health for women can only be obtained through Rexall Mucu-Tone, the one positive and per manent cure for catarrh.
 Mme. Swift, II W. 26th St. New York City, the most famous beauty specialist in the world and all accept ed authority on all relating thereto, has this to say of Mucu-Tone
 T can strongly endorse tie claims made for Rexall Mucu-Tone as cure for systemic catarrh. Its tonic ef- fleets are remarkable. It builds up the strength and restores vitality If women who are tired and run down. lacking in energy and vitality. will use Mucn-Tone, they will praise it as do for its strengthening and healing qualities.
