A NbSTfTUTf6r If TEA

as serving table during the dinner.
the most important. is the curtained
cabinet provided with two shelves I'M
derneath. where cups and saucers may
be tucked away to keep them free
from dust. A complete tea service can
be concealed behind the dainty cur
tains ready for use at moments no.
tice. Unless one has perfectly trained
servants and number of them the tea
table is apt to be neglected 1t should
be kept fresh and dainty all the time.
If the tea cabinet has a position in
the sitting room or library, then it
may fulfill the Office of a book shelf or
magazine rack. The top may be piled
with handsome volumes, while the cur
tanned interior may be used for the tea
things. 1t makes an excellent place
for magazines. keeps them separate
from the books. and one always knows
where to find them.
A part of the curtained section may
be converted into a bookcase by hav-
ing partitions put down the sides. Civ
ing the space in the center to the tea
set and that at either side to small
books. In this case the top is left for
any use or decoration one likes. 1t
offers a charming stand for flowers
and bric-a-brac.
Thin silk or cretonne curtains give
an effective finish. These should match
the furnishings of the room. Where
the cabinet stands in a country house
or in a woman's sitting room, then Gre
tonne is more suitable. For library
or living room something darker is
more desirable. Exquisite shadings.
like old tapestries. are to be found
among the newest cretonne and cot
ton fabrics for decorations.

Now that the tea table has become
an indispensable part of house furnish
ings ways and means have to be con-
sidered, when space is limited, in or
der to provide the comforts of the
table without installing a separate
piece of furniture. Few women want
to give up having regulation tea
table, yet in country houses and small
apartments a substitute sometimes has
to be accepted, one which plays dou-
BILE role in the household equipment.
An idea for this kind of substitute
is offered in a combination tea cab
met or table and buffet, or modern
lied console table. 1t is intended to oc-
cupy a place in the diningroom, where
it will hold the dinner candles when
they are not in use, and can be utilized

Trimmings in Style.

All kinds of embroidery and braid
ing show no signs of being set aside
because of their long and strenuous
reign. Some of the newest and most
attractive street toilettes from Europe
show elaborate handwork.
Both braiding and coarse embroid-
cry done in self-toned silks continue
to be united as frequently as ever.
Braid is also being used alone in the
capacity of bindings for the seams and
Edges of tailored coats. And along
With fine moLair braids that finish
worsted suits, matching them in color,
comes the wide use OF black braid on
shepherds plaid.
A few years back there was a fren-
zied fashion for this combination, and
every woman, whether or not shep-
herds plaid was becoming to her,
owned a street suit of small or large
black and white checks, trimmed with
black braid.

STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Prices Rise and Fall With Evidence of
 Bear Pressure.

Wall Street, New York. Aug. IT, Irregularity was the chief feature of to-day's stock market. Prices rose and fell alternately, mostly within narrow range. although some of the more active features registered sub stantial gains at the opening. The trading bore evidence of bear pres sure and the general professionalism although close observers expressed the opinion that stocks are gradually passing into stronger hands. This be- lief appears to be based largely on the operations of certain prominent banking and brokerage houses, as well as the continued ease of money further prospects of good crops and advices from the leading railroad centres, which almost uniformly re- port indications of awakening busi- ness. Quite the most important de- velopment of the day in railway cir cles was the publication of the annual report of the Hartman lines for the fiscal year. The Union Pacific sys- tems showed a net loss compared with the previous year of about s2,170,0 ,000, while the Southern Pacific railway period of ss,363,000. In both in- stapces, however the falling off was largely due to increased taxes. Both lines show material gains In net earn ings for the month of June.
 The receivership proceedings against the Pennsylvania Coal and Coke company served to call attention to the soft coal situation. but was otherwise ignored As whole the coalers held comparatively firm, though Reading was frequently sub- jected to pressure. Smelting led the industrial stocks, making sharp re- coNery from Saturdays close. and the coppers moved in sympathy despite another cut in the price of the metal. The methods of well known market manipulator from New England caus- ed some uneasiness in conservative quarters but elsewhere they subjected to good natured ridicule. Much the greater part of the days business was done in the early session, trading be- coming very narrow in the afternoon, while the list developed a heavy ln- dertone, Towards the close, however, under the lead of St. Paul, Smelling and Reading, the market grew strong and the closing was active at the days best prices.

FINE FIELD OF CORN.
At springside Farm it Is Fifteen Feet
 High

The corn they are raising this sea son up at springsIde Farm Is causing all the farmers farm hands and per sons from the city who visited the farm to gasp and wonder how 1t was done, But the news comes from re- liable sources and several pictures We're taken of the tields-the corn IS fifteen feet high and therN are three and four ears of corn on each stalk. Now don't gasp and say be-gosh, that's what the farmers said when they saw the corn, and Farmer Wright, who planted the seed, says it's the finest corn that was over grown in this part of the country and that there isn't another field of corn in the state anything like the Spring side farm corn. The corn when 1t grows SO high as 1t did at Springside this year is too tough for eating pur- poses, and Farmer Wright says they are going to feed it to the catle. A number of pictures were taken of the oornheld at springsde farm, which covers eight acres.

CURIOUS OVER LLoYD.GEORGE.
Germans Believe Chancellors Visit Is
 Over Naval Armament.

Berlin, Aug, 17-The coming visit to Berlin of David Lloyd George, the British chancellor of the exchequer, is causing much speculation even in upper official circles, where the pur- pose of the British minister hereto fore was believed to be only to study the German administrators old-age pension system.
 Hints, however, have been let fall that Mir, Lloyd-George also will prob- ably discuss the naval situation with the view of reaching an arrangement between the two countries in the fu- ture for reduction in the outlay for armaments.

JAP POACHERS NABBED, Captured Schooner Was Rigged ts Resemble Revenue Cutter.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. 17.-Cable ad- vices from Valdez state that the Unit ed States revenue cutter Bear arrived at Unga, Alaska, bringing seventy-five Japanese seal poachers from Seal Is- land, the prisoners being a part of the crews of two Japanese schooners re- gently captured. The Bear has sailed to fetch the remainder.
 United States Commissioner Drif- field has ordered twenty-five prison- CTS held to the federal grand jury for examination. One of the captured schooners was rigged to resemble the cutter McCulloch.

The attention which is being paid to the income account of the New rk Central is causing some uneasi- ness among the friends of the road and the bulls on the stock. All that has been said in the past about the company sailing so close to the wind in the matter of dividend payments is being recalled, and added to by much more to the effect that indications point to the necessity of taking in another reef. It Is figured out that according to the report made to the New York Stock Exchange for the June half-year the company earned the merest fraction beyond per cent. in it's share capital and that even un- der the most favorable conditions re- suits are not likely to show more than 4 1-2 per cent. for the full period
 Where such windfalls are to come from this time as brought Central out whole a year ago, is a question perplexing many who still believe in the integrity of the present dividend.

 fin SmeItlng.

After an early spurt in stocks, they eased off gradually, and by midday were very weak with extreme losses of 1 to 1 1-2 points But trading was dull and liquidation was much smaller. It was apparent that last weeks selling had cleared away most of the speculative accounts which were to be liqudated. Sales to noon were about 290,0OO, as against 472,000 on Saturday. Around o'clock there was rally. on light transactions. Un- ion Pacific recovering from 154 7-S to 155 1-2 on four transactions of 100 shares each. It was in the last fifteen minutes that the market showed signs of real and general strength, led by Onion Pacific.

The reports of Union Pacific and Southern Pacific for June showing small increases in the net were con sidered as uncommonly favorable un- der the circumstances. They had probably both been discounted week ago, but. nevertheless. the stocks in- creased fractionally after the publica ton of the figures Tn both cases the decrease in the operating expenses had overtaken the decrease in the gross. It is known that the figures for Juiy and the first part of this month are much more favorable
The morning journal-courier., 1908-08-18

The break around midday of Amer ican Smelling from 93 to 20 1-4 was probably due to a bear attack, which was designed to check the attempt to rally the general market. Smelting having risen about the most sharply of anything on the list, was easiest to depress. Since the last week of May 1t had advanced from around 72 to 107, or 35 points It was little won der, therefore that it should have de- clined 1s IA points last week Yes terday the further decline in copper metal was used as an argument for selling this stock. The low price of silver was also referred to as req son why Smelling stock is very high. But bar silver recovered a little in London yesterday. Copper also was steady there.
