DAYS GAINS.


NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-At the open
ing Of the stock market there were
severe slumps all along the line, extend
Ing from = to points The bears
pressed for advantage, and the political
scare was working on schedule time
The manipulation Of the magnates un-
der Harriman's leadership Is wisely ter
minated. for the present, at least, but
no one believes that the high for the
market on the Hartman stocks has
been reached as yet. There has been
SO much publicity given to the manipu-
iation that the chances are greatly
against any public movement in the
market, at least until after the cleo
tions in November, and in the mean
time the volume Of business will be re
stricted, and prices VIII fluctuate this
way and that until such time as prob
abilities continue TO assume a more
promising appearance.
No one expects a fun recovery IN
general business with the political un-
certainty, and this same conservatism
VIII mark security operations.
Distributing Stocks.
UnQuestionably the Hartman CLIQUE
has been distributing on the market
share sold there was a handsome. profit.
The total reaction from high has not
been at all severe and the Hartman
clique's purchases started on a level
tens Of points below the current mar
ket values. So when the short sellers
wanted stocks they got them, when the
market hardened, naturally or by ma
nipulation here and there, more clique
shares we're sold This process will
probably continue, anent the trimming
Of sails for the November elections.
Believe Hartman.
Aside from political considerations
which have been very influential during
the present week it is felt that Z. H.
Hartman has dealt a death blow TO the
plan for raising freight rates The fact
that he claims 10 be able 10 operate
the Union Pacific for less than half Of
its gross revenue has made it impos-
sibIe for' the Union Pacific to expect
10 raise rates. Mr.. Hartman himself
said last week that if the Union Pa
cidc did not raise rates, others would
be unable TO do SO It is thoroughly
well understood I'm Wan Syrs--. that the
low operating ratio of the Union Pa
cihc is the result Of bookkeeping and
false economy, and announced for the
the public is determined to take Mr..
Hartman at his word this one time,
and this means death to any plans for
raising rates.
Market Orders.
At the opening market orders were
very numerous and brokers Gid not hesi-
tate about selling at best bid Read
ing, a market leader, was sold to the
extent of 5000 shares at 4 point loss

stocks from p to points.
The weakness continued unabated for
an hour or more, and then the shorts
started IN 80 cover with a good rally
resulting, and a decidedly better tone,
though the volume or business con-
tinued light and the market nervous.
After the shorts had covered freely, |
the market became very quiet, but there
was considerable irregularity in the
price range. Many of the stocks re-
covered nearly all OF their losses, with

There was a fair degree Of activ-

SELF DELUSIoN
Many People Deceived by Coffee.

We like 10 defend our indulgencies
and habits even though We may be
convinced of their actual harmful
ness.
a man can convince himself that
whisky is good for him on cold morn
ing, or beer on a hot summer day
when he wants the whisky or beer.
It's the same with coffee. Thousands
of people suffer headaches and nerv-
BUSINESS year after year but try to
persuade themselves the cause is not
coffee-because they like coffee.
"While yet a child | commenced u.s.
ing coffee and continued It," writes a
Wis. man, until | was a regular cOf-

and in consequence had a binding
headache nearly every afternoon.
MY folks thought it was coffee that
ailed me, but liked It and would not
admit 1t was the cause of my trouble,
so stuck to coffee and the headaches
stuck to me.
Finally, the folks stopped buying
coffee and brought home some Postum.
They made it right directions on

ence it would make with my head. and
during the first week on Postum my
old afliction did not bother me once.

the Democrats declare, there will be no jungies
when Theodore leaves.
Five thousand pounds of ammunition VIII be
needed, six months food is an absolute neces-
sity and an expert declares that the cost from
the time he steps onto the continent until he
leaves will aggregate about $4,000. That is a
large amount of money to put into six months
hunting but British and German sportsmen say
it Is worth the price.
The real heart of the hunting regions Of Afri-
ca Is in Rhodesa. There are cannibals there,
also hostile tribes but Roosevetian diplomacy may
become splendid asset, and backed up by his
fighting experience gained on San Juan hill and
in sparring bouts with the senate. there should be
no serious danger.

tatiyely announced by the magazine which is to

The snlder and the Ely.

In the long warfare between the
spider and the fly, the latter has had
the housewife for its auxiliary and
friend. The flies have been tolerated,
even fed and mrtured, while the
spiders and their webs have been ruth
lcssly destroyed. This unremitting
and unrClenting war against it keeps
the spider population down, while the
flies increase and multiply by the
millions and ten Of millions, almost
unchecked. The spider Is ugly and
his web is unsighty in the ostima-
ton of most people, but spiders hurt
no human creature. They feed on
flies, which arc the foes of mankind,
and do mankind service -Philaael-
