Awaiting His Chance
From the Kansas City Star.

From the Kansas City Star.
 Dr. w. A. Quayle. bishop of the meth odist church and a popular lecturer, in the early days of his ministry. went back to preach one Sunday to a former con gregation in Kansas and was entertained by one of his old parishioners. After the evening services the family gathered and exchanged "reminiscences with their guest. appadently without any thought of retiring. Eleven o'clock came and midnight.
 The conversation Jagged and all showed unmistakable signs of weariness. Dr. Quayle yawned politely and rubbed his dropping eyelids. His host moved rest lessly in his chair. His hostess eyed the timepiece with growing alarm. The very air was drowsy. but no one seemed able to end the awkward situation.
 Finally as the clock ehimed half past 1 O clock his hostess asked deprecatingly, but with a note of desperation in her voice:
 Brother Quayle when do you go to bed?"
 When I get a chance" replied Dr. Quayle meekly

CHICAGO GRAIN
 MARKETS EASY
Corn and Oats Fracti0nally Depressed-Other Posi-
 tiOns Are Steady

Chicago December 24.-Board of trade markets fuctuated narrowly today, pro- visions closing firm and grains easy. Wheat, lsd44e at the close, was on the lower grade, and corn and oats were frae- tionally depressed.
 Some wheat bulls attempted to ad- vance the price during the forenoon, but their tactics merely inflated the price during the period of their own activity.
 The downward tendency was not to be denied amid the pre-holiday lethargy. Pri- vate wires were engaged chiefly in exchanging the felicitations of the season rather than sizing up news. May wheat sold between 92c and 92lac, and closed ssc under yesterday at 91iAa919sc. The spot market was stagnant. The Seaboard re- ported 15 loads taken for export. Selling of December corn, which closed with a less of 5sG24c was the feature of trade in corn. Most of it went to cash houses while May at concessions in price was taken by commission houses. Trade was dull May sold between 4s7sc and 4S1@c and closed ssc down. at iSesc. There was a rumor in the oats pit, which was au- thoritatively denied, that a transaction in- volving 250,000 bushels of oats. to over come the apparent shortage had been set ted This and the decline in corn and anxiety in the spot market caused no al deviation. May sold between 8Ssic and 3Sc, closing -c down at SSdSsisc. Trade In pro- visions was stagnant and fluctuations lim- tied. The close was irregular. Pork for May was SIS. 25, or Dc higher; May lard, $9. .971gd1o or unchanged, and May ribs a shade higher at S9.S0.

Danger in Lying in Bed

From Harper w eekiy.
 Lack of muscular exercise is the first result of lying in bed As a result the appetite is weakened, the digestive ac- tion slows down and the muscles of the stomach and abdomen cease to act upon the intestinal mass. When the body is in a recumbent position the heart works with the least fatigue. and the circula- ton and the functional activity are de- creased.
 But unless the subject is exceptionally vgorius all the benefits are counter balanced by dangers. In bed the subject is shut away from fresh air and sun shine. The result of that deprivation is a condition similar to anemia. But the supreme menace to the weak or the aged confined to bed is the clogging of the pull monary circulation, an action which ire quently results in passive congestion of both sides of the lungs. For this reason the simple fracture of bone may be the cause of death. because when the patient lies in bed there is no movement of the muscles to act as an incentive to deep breathing.

NEW YORK COTTON
 IS FAIRLY ACTIVE
Close Quiet With Late Prices Unchanged-Very Lit
 tie Fresh News

New York December 24-The cotton market was fairly active for a time dur ing todays early trading, but later be- came very quiet with business practice ally suspended during the forenoon when the brokers seemed chiefly inter- ested in the festivities and exchange of holiday greetings, which are usual at the wind up of business for over the Christmas holidays. The close was quiet with last prices net unchanged to a points. higher The opening was steady at an advance of to points and prices sold about 10 to II points higher during the early trading on covering of shorts for over two days adjournment and moderate support from bullish trade sources. Better cables than due and bullish over night advices from the south contributed to the advance, which was checked during the middle of the morning. however by realizing of seat tered local selling with the market later reacting several points from the hest. Aside from a few scattering southern advices, there appeared to be little or nothing in the way of fresh news and 1t was generally considered the day trading reflected nothing more important than further evening up of scattering accounts in advance of the holidays as all three of the big markets will be closed from tonight until next Friday morning. Private cables attributed the advance in Liverpool to buying by spot houses and the English spot sales were considered unusually heavy for the day before Christmas, but some of the large Wall street interests were sellers on the early advance here and after the demand from recent scattered sellers had been supplied. comparatively small offerings were sufficient to send prices off in the later trading.

STOCK EXCHANGE Is ON NOMINAL BASIS
Volume. of Business and Fluctuations Small-Typi-
 cal Christmas Market

New York, December 2A-Operations on the stock exchange were on nominal basis today with the volume of business and fluctuations ir important issue so small that the market scarcely betrayed a sign of life. The ticker was silent Tor minutes at time and fn the noon hour only about 70O9 shares were dealt IF. The total for the day was only 115COO shares. It was a typical day before Christmas market. Many of the active speculators were absent and those who remained found little to do. The most { exciting episode of the day was snow call battle on the floor of the exchange, where the usual stern discipline relaxed in recognition of the holiday. The one feature of the day was the local traction group. Statements that an agreement had been reached in the subway nego- tiations strengthened these shares and trading in them amounted to an unusual y large proportion of the days business. Brooklyn Rapid Transit led the move ment with an advance of 31s and Third avenue and the Interborough Metropoli- tan stocks scored large gains.
 The usual stock market leaders varied but slightly from yesterdays close. Bear traders made show of selling some of the active shares early in the day, but failed to attract a following and the ssTnall losses were made up. Bethlehem Steel issues and Sears Roebuck were strong.
 Call money rates again advanced, at one time touching per cent, but the de- nand was slight, and before the close the rate had fallen to per cent Loans were renewed at per cent as compared with 4st at yesterdays close. The rise was regarded as a natural development at this time. with final preparations for the year end financing but a few days off The year end dividend and interest disbursements which must be arranged are placed in the reighborhood of S2o0,- C00000.
 , Bonds were irregular with exceptional strength in Brooklyn Transit is and other traction issues. Total sales, par vaiil', $1, ,44eo00. United States bonds were vn- changed on call.
