the sleeves and at the bottom of the

broidered in white would also make up
well in this style, or plain soft linens

could be made out of a short length of
soft white lawn with insertion and
edgings of semi-transparent embroid-

She "Strings" Him.

My Dear Miss Doom:
l am a young nan of 26. n am very
fond of a young girl three years my
junior. She loves to foo me about
little things, so that / never know
whether she is telling the truth or not.
She calls this ~"stringing' me, but I
told her the other night that 1t was
nothing more than downright lying.
Upon which she became angry and said
I need not call at her home any more.
l know she would not lie about a big
thing, but these constant little joshes,
as she calls them, annoy me very much.
Please tell me what to do about the
matter, and win the thanks Of
PERPLEXED.
/ think you take her entirely too serl-
ously. Why do you not try paying her
back in her own coin? Her sport may
then lose its relish. As long as you
know she is "stringing" you, why care?
Be good-natured about it, and pretend
not to notice. She'll soon grow tired
when she finds you do not mind.

London Stock Market.

London, January 25.-The rapid return of 4the international market to normal conditions resulting from the reduction of Bank of England rate of discount to per cent and a corresponding decline in the discount rate of the Bank of France, has been the chief feature of the week on the stock exchange and caused substantial improvement in first class securities. Consols led in this up- ward movement with a net gain of 1 5-16d and sold at S5A.
 The American section of the market remains in an unsatisfactory condition chiefly on reiterated reports of declining trade in the United States. which would adversely affect forthcoming dividends. able borrowing. The market here, which is entirely professional, has been marked up over parity every day, but yielded in the afternoon through New York sell ing pressure. The result of this has been a net decline on the week. Today however, the tendency was frmer on the reduction in the rate of discount of the Imperial Bank of Germany, and moderate support from Berlin. The for bright and cheerful under good conti- mental support and encouraged by the lower bank rates. Russian bonds were favorites later on the satisfactory set clement of the emigration question with America and a more favorable budget than anticipated. Money has become plen- tiful at 8 per cent and with discounts adjusted to the lower bank rate a period of ease is confidently expected for some time to come, especially if the prospect of the early return of gold from the United States is realized. This would clear the way for further reduction in the banks rate of discount.

SIZE THE GREAT BuoBEAR.
Farmers Make No Definite Charges
 Against the Harvester Combine.

Herbert N Casson. in the February
 Everybodys.
 Among the farmers of Iowa and Kan sas found no definite charges against the harvester combine--nothing but that vague dread of bigness, which seems natural to the average mind, and which even the great-brained Web ster showed when he opposed the an- nexation of Texas and California Of four farm editors, one was against all trusts" on general prin- 'ciples; the other three believed that the evils of harvester competition were much greater than those of consolida- ton. The bare fact that the one cor poration has $120,000,000 of capital alarms the old-timers. Others have be- come accustomed to the big facts of American business.
 Why" said one dealer, "after all, S120, 100000 is less than the American farmers earn in a week."
 He might also have said that its less than the value of one corn crop in Iowa, and half as much as the Iowa farmers have now on deposit in their savings banks. It is very little more than Russell Sage raked in through the wickets of his money-lending of flee, or than Marshall Field accumu- lated from a single store. In fact, if bread were raised one cent loaf for one year in the United States alone. the extra pennies would buy out the whole Harvester Trust, bag and bag gage.

COTTON. ADVANCES
 ON BULL|SH NEWS Settlement of Lancashire Treu-
 bIeS Causes Upturn TRADING NOT VERY ACTIVE
Business Falls of Sharply, Consider ing the Incentive To Follow the Rise Which Puts the Mar
 ket Up 12 to 15 Points.

New York, January 25-(Speclal.)- confirmation of late reports received late yesterday to the effect that the threatened great labor disturbances among the Man chester operatives had been averted, stim- ulated a further rally in the local mar ket immediately upon the resumption of business this morning which carried prices up 12 to 15 points from last nights closing. This made a. maximum of 35 to 70 points from the low level of yes terday. There was a surprising falling off in the amount of business, however, with the volume only half and the ad- vance also about half of what had been expected.
 The settling of the Lancashire strike will remove a strong spoke from the bear wheel, as the English spinner, the very customer who, through the work ingss sof the Atlanta love feast, the Farm- CTS hoped to win over as a friend, price booster and all-around co-operator for the common good, has been utilizing the Lancashire labor situation as a club with which to hit the cotton market daily rap on the head thereby obtaining cheap CT raw material.
 This situation gave the cis-Atlantic operator a salient opportunity to frighten timid bulls into seeking nasty cover but now that has been dissipated, the bear needs go upon another quest In lieu of the recent decline a substantial ad- vance is due, as warranted by the sta- tistical strength of the staple. and the Times-Democrat well states the situation when it says in part: "A bull party almost wholly to memories of past glory and ambitious deeds of other days, ut terly lacks the force required to shield the cotton market from such palpabIe humbuggery aA has been going on re- gently in connection with the threatened Lancashire lockout. The trade all along has stood ready to make @ full allow propensity of manipulation forced the best settlement possible, but the Amer ican has been in no position this season to successfully combat a system befud- ding of very serious question affecting the consumption of cotton"
