NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-Moderate
gains were made in a majority OF the
important issues at the opening, but
there was an immediate recession

the end of the first quarter OF an
hour, the market became steady
II o'clock-After the moderate re-
action, the market ruled steady, but
quiet all DUNG the first hour, with
prices ranging generally slightly un-

unchanged; other bonds strong.
NoOn-After q vigorous drive in the

was a slight improvement, but the
trading was without importance.
G. ]. Hudson and Company say
with London prices l-2 to / higher,
We may look for a strong opening, but
on bulges, we would sell stocks. There
is no basis for the rise except the
manipulation by a speculative pool.

difficulty There has been little out

ests do not favor a bull market at
this time"
F. d. Lackey and Company say:
London sent higher prices this
morning. but the traders were sus-
picious of the advance there as being
manipulated from this side and they
took the selling Side OF the market,
which resulted in a fair recession all
along the line.

the secretary. Prices have not come

Therefore. the farmers could not feed

SOCIETY AND
THE OPERA.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

In Harper's Bazaar, Ralph Pulitzer,
son of the great editor of the New
York World, continues to hammer
New York society with the relentless
brilliancy shown in his December ar
ticle in the same periodical. Among
other things he says, discussing the
opera:
"The dinner being leisurely COM
pleted, the hostess remarks obviously
to her husband that she supposes the
men might perhaps smoke their Gig
ars on the way to the opera. This is
probably more from a kindly desire
to free the women from one another's
society in the drawing-room than
from any desire to reach the opera
earlier, but the men always acquiesce,
and pile into one carriage or auto
mobile and with their cigars and Gig
arettes, while the ladies enjoy one
another's company in another vehicle.
"They quickly reach the opera, and
walk up enc fight of stairs, to the
distant muffled murmurs of the Or
chestra and an occasional high note
from one OF the singers, loud enough
to force its way out to them. These
solitary and sudden notes, robbed of
all musical quality by the inaudibil-
ity of their context, sound as if some
sublimated butcher shop within were
being operated to slow music. But
one of the guests, at some unusually
penetrating scream, is sure to breathe
'Ah!' Gas she hastens her steps up
the stairs); 'Ah!' in tones of tender
and preposterous appreciation. Why
she does it she could not herself ex-
plain, for she has not the least inten-
ton of listening to the music when
she reaches the box. It is probably
done from the same instinct that
would make her honestly declare, if
questioned, that she was devoted to
music or to children, although she
might not know a fugue in one from
whooping cough out of the other.
A curious traditional attribute of her
sex, this devotion to music and chill
dren, which she still feels it seemly
to subscribe to in theory"

How to Waterproof Cloth.

For raincoats or other waterproof
clothing, wooden goods having a close
weave are the best. Use goods in
which the face is smooth and firm, al
though cloth having a soft face an
swers fairly we'll, provided the weave
is tight and close. To waterproof
the cloth, lay it out on large table
face up. Then take block of paraf-
fine about six inches square and rub
it all over the face of the cloth, bear
ing down hard. This will leave a
thin film of parafine on the face of
the cloth. Melt this film of parafflne
into the goods, using a fiat iron that
is just warm. Too hot an iron will
set the paraffine on fire and burn the
goods. It is we'll to experiment with
small sample first, and learn how
to do the water-proofing properly be-
fore starting in with pattern of
goods. To determine when the sam
pie is properly water-proofed, hold 1t
in kind of bag, with the face in, and
pour in some water. If the water
proofing has been properly done the
water will not wet the face of the
cloth, but it will stay in globules and
act as if it we're on a creased board
or hot stove.-Scientific American.

Every time anything is said that re-
minds her of Oregon she gets home
sick and cries. She wants to go back
there to her tame bear and her crop
cared burro."
"It's no such thing" said Susan,
sharply. I'm going to give my bear
away"
Susan" said Jane, in deep tone,
remember where you are, miss.
Look at Cousin Horatio and see how
shocked he is"
They all looked at Cousin Horatio,
who appeared very uncomfortable.
He felt that he must say something.
I'm afraid" he remarked, that
you haven't seen enough of New York
to Offset your Western prejudices."
Il think we have" said Susan,
promptly. I'VE were on top of the
Metropolitan tower"
You are not a real New Yorker,
are you, cousin?" Jane demanded.
Il was born near Boston," Horatio
answered. Il came to New York
four years ago."
I'm glad of that" said Ann. I'm
glad you are not a real New Yorker.
New Workers are so cold and offish,
and so lacking in everything genial
and friendly"
Horatio remembered his letter with
a little twinge, and his face flushed.
He wished he hadn't sent it. He
wished he had hurried out of town
instead of consenting to meet these
dreadful Westerners.
But before he could reply the vol
uble Jane came to his relief.
Have you been abroad, cousin?"
she asked.
"Once for a brief stay" he an
swered.
1--WE have been to Japan twice, 8"
said Susan, "and three times to the
Philippines, and twice to Honolulu.
You must get Jane to dance the
jubajam for you. She does it aw-
fully we'll, only you have to take all
the furniture out of the room"
"Why, Susan!" cried Ann.
There was a sudden laugh from the
hostess. They all looked at her.
Excuse me-" she said with lit
tie effort. II was just family won
dering how that dance could be done
in a Harlem flat"
Even Horatio was forced to smile,
but it was a painful effort. He was
never more uncomfortable in his life.
His Western cousins with their dread
full hair and Haunting ribbons were
fully as uncultured as he anticipated.
1t was an unsatisfactory repast. And
there was all the evening at the re-
ception ahead of him!
But at last the tea came to an end
They went back to the reception
room, but the three girls paused in
the doorway.
"You must excuse us for a little
while, COUSIN" said Jane. I'VE have
to do some extra fixing up, you
know"
paint and feathers" added Ann.
