Additional Evidence of Apathy Yes.
terday-Professo strained
to Maintain Prices.

New York Feb. 15--The stock mar
Ret today gave additional evidence of
dizziness and apathy, The professional
element unavailingly strained all it's
resources to maintain prices. While
urged liquidation has ceased to press
upon the market, no disposition is
manifested to accumulate stocks with
sufficient determination to raise and
maintain prices.
The desire to see the definition of
the scope of the Sherman antitrust
law which is expected to eminate
from the suprement court is accepted
as a motive for refraining from large
market commitments by capitalists
of the class which makes the great
speculative movements. The decision
Of the tobacco case however is not
expected until the Standard Oil case
is submitted.
From the low prices of a week ago
marking the elimination of liquida-
tion the rebound has been substantial
reaching over II points in Reading
today. The professionals however,
finding themselves almost alone in
the buying, desisted and allowed deal
ines to lapse into semi-stagnation

rent price movement was seen In the
hesitating uncertainty of the narrow

she can-forward, back and sideways
stretching the elastic as she does so.
Reversing the apparatus, she then
exercises the other limb. AS the elias
tic is inclined to be stiff, and the ex-
ercise unusual, it is not the least OF
the trick to keep the beslippered foot
ON the ground and several have suf-
fered from something more than the
exercise in consequence. ta

les, and some of them have been
downright strenuous.
The Directoire style has solved a
great problem for the women who were
once counted 100 thin, and one hears
comparatively little nowadays about
milk and malt and cod liver oil. 1t
Is the stout woman who has trouble,
and she, poor lady, must work over
time if she would wear the "hipless.'
Last year not less than score of
prominent women took the standing
cure; that Is, they stood up for 20
minutes after each meal. 1t took for
titude of no mean quality to persist in
this treatment, for II Is by no means
easy to find a plausible excuse for
standing that length of time after a
dinner party, for instance-and that
is how the secret leaked ont The
men had no end of fun over it, but
its devotees persisted nevertheless.
Last autumn the stout women adopt
ed another and even more strenuous
cure, that, however, at least had the
merit of being exercised in the pri-
vacy of their own apartments, 1t con-

What Constitutes Subscriber?
A court decision has lately been
rendered in Massachusetts, on what
constitutes a subscriber. The Judge
firmly believed that the man who
received the paper, although he
never subscribed for it, is entitled
to pay.
James Thompson moved, and
William Robinson took immediate
possession and received and accepted
a weekly newspaper that was deliv-
cred to him through the mails every
week. The good-natured editor
sent accounts frequently. but no at
tention was paid to them by Mr..
Robinson.
Finally there was day of reck-
oning. Robinson had received the
paper for some time, he informed the
collector. but he said that he never
subscribed and declined to pay fot.
it. The judge personally questioned
the defendant, who said that he had
ceiving the accounts, which were fire.
quently inclosed in the paper.
Judgment was rendered in favor
of the newspaper. The judge was
severe in his criticism of people who
are receiving papers and do not
think it worth while to pay for what
they receive and make use Of 1t
is an act of dishonesty, he said. One
should acquaint the publisher and
pay for whatever numbers he re-
ceives.-Wyandot (O.) Union Re-
public.
