MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
Stock Markell.

New York, Sept The market has
been steady today with little or no
feature. There was little or no news
IN circulation, and fewer r1lmors Than
tor some time. There seems to be o
quiet liquidation going on In some
quarters and good buying in others.
Creating a market OF more OF less un-
certainty and irregularity. we think
the market will be better In day ca
two and favor the long side on weak
spots. Harris, Winthrop g. Co

grouped under one head and the
highest should be the candidate fol-
the full term and the next highest
for the four year term. There is nc
such intent, as we read it, in the rri'
mary law, and the proposition would
not at all be plain or unambiguous'
The two group system, we think, Is
the only one that is in keeping with
the spirit of the law, and the one that
will have to be adopted. To adopt
it will need only administrative &C
ton to supply the means to choice
A good many people do not believe
in the popular election of senators or
the primary choice, but we cannot
see that this has anything to do with
the matter. So long as we have the
primary law, and so long as it is
not in conflict with the constitution
of the state or the United States, we
think it should be observed both in
the form and the substance. If the
people are given an opportunity to
vote for their long term choice, they
should also have an opportunity to
vote for the short term choice. Any
other plan would be to reduce the
system to an absurdity.

A Curious Trail,

All sorts Of devices have been used
to mark line of march. A unique
method OF ''blazing the trail" is still to
be seen in Africa. and a recent publ
cation prints a picture Of one Of these
memorials Of the dervish raid. Arthur
]. Hayes mentions the subject in his
"Source Of the Blue Nile"
In 1889. after fierce battle with the
Abyssinians, the dervishes pursued
their foes as far as the lake district.
The mahdi's men had small knowledge
Of geography and little geographical
Intelligence. So the advance party, in
order to mark the route for those who
came after and alsoato guide the force
on their return journey. twisted the
saplings along the ,2way into living
knots. The war ended, hut the tied up
trees grew and flourished, but un-
couthly twisted and distorted, and are
now the only reminders Of that upris.

Championino the Worm.

An Incident that occurred some years
ago during session OF the British
parliament furnished an amusing H.
lustratiou of the power Of satire to
bring about results that sober argu-
ment often fails to accomplish.
There had been introduced bill de-
signed to prevent cruelty to wild ami
mails in captivity. 1t was opposed on
the ground that, If passed. it would
endanger certain kinds of legitimate
sport.
When the Earl Of Kimberley arose
he gravely admitted the force Of this
argument.
There can be no doubt" said he,
that the bill would put an end to fish,
ing with worms as bait. 1t Is bill to
prevent cruelty to wild animals In
captivity. The schedule states that
the word animal shall be held to in
clude reptile. A worm may be held to
be reptile. A worm impaled on q
hook must certainly be held to be In
captivity; therefore the angler who
uses a live worm for bait would be
guilty Of cruelty to an animal in cap
tivity."
The laugh that followed at the ex-
pense Of those against the bill robbed
the opposition of whatever force 1t had
and carried the measure to a sue
cessful issue.-Cincinnati Commercial
Tribune.

Sun Cooking.

Sun cooking-roasting and boiling by
sunlight instead Of by coal or gas-has
been going on for 800 years. There are
sun stoves that roast sirloin or boil
soup to perfection. They are only
used. however, by scientists. A sun
stove consists mainly Of a mirror-a
spherical mirror-on joint. There Is
also a reflector. The place for pot or
plate is so situated that the mirrors
rays can be focused on it accurately.
A German. Baron Tcherhausen. was
the first sun cook. he began in 1887 to
boil water. and In 1888 he had very
good success in boiling eggs. Sir John
Herschel and Button are other famous
names associated with sun cooking.
In California various sun cooks have
boiled a gallon of water in twenty
minutes. roasted meat In two hours
and poached eggs in fifteen minutes,
quite as good time as the ordinary fire
makes.
An odd thing about meat roasted by
sun rays is that it has an unpleasant
taste. This is avoided by the insertion
Of a plate Of yellow glass between the
meat and mirror. In all solar stoves
the sheet Of yellow glass fgures.-Lon-
don Tt-Bits.

unique CHARACTER
in VINEGAR BUYER
EZRA KENDALL BUBBLES OVER
WITH ORIGINAL HUMOROUS
REMARKS.
PLAY Has Met With Enthusiastic Re-
ception in the East - Fine Sup
porting Company Carried.

Judging from the enthusiastic re-
ception with which Ezra Kendall has
been greeted this season in his re-
vival of 1.-THE Vinegar Buyer" it is
easy to surmise that playgoers rarely
forget the man who makes them
laugh. ....
eKndall is seen in the role of Joe
Miller, whose business is that of a
vinegar buyer and whose pleasure is
making fun for the rest of the vii
layers. The character that he por-
trays is that of middle aged, good
natured fellow who goes about doing
good on every hand, righting wrongs
and overthrowing the Vaccinations
Of the wicked, seeking much for 9th
ers and little for himself.
Woven into the main plot of the
play are number of eccentric char
aoters and ludicrous situations with
a laugh in every line and convulsion
in every situation. Audiences laugh
at Kendalrs wit and they laugh over
and over again as if they couldn't
help it and wouldn't if they could. =
"The Vinegar Buyer comes to the
Bijou Saturday. Seats on sale at

Her Dime.

Somebody had given the east side
woman a bad dime. 1t was composed
largely of lead. She tried to pass it at
several places, but they are wary for
some reason or other on the east side.
They invariably ring a dime on the
counter once or twice and bite it be-
sides. When she got home with the
dime it had several holes in 1t from
the pressure Of east side teeth. 1T Is
more impossible than ever" she said.

evening. He had a dollar with him
which was wholly intact-that is to
say, it had not been broken.

money for it." be said upon taking

east side." he complained. "Somebody
or other stung me with an old lead
dime that was full Of holes."'-New

Therefore, when we assure you

scalp trouble, Rexall "93" Hair Ton

Out of one hundred test cases Rex

has been proved that it will grow hair
even on bald heads, when, of course,
the badness has not existed for 80
long time that the follicles, which
are the roots of the hair, had not
become absolutely lifeless.
ReXall "93" Hair Tonic is vastly
different from other similar prepare
tons. We believe that 1t will do
more than any other human agency
toward restoring hair growth and hair
health. It is not greasy and will not
gum the scalp or hair or cause per-
