NEW YORK, Aug 2.--During most
OF the day. the stock market con.
tinued to advance, and there were
periods OF heavy buying. This nelpeC
all the standard stocks which at the
high level showed good gains over
yesterday.
In the late trading the market be.
'came reactionary before the close a
good portion of the early advance
was lost. The market was again
forced TO absorb large offerings OF
stocks which came from spectators
who haG bought yesterday, and on
Wednesday. After opening strong
the market was soon depressed by
large selling orders and quick reac-
/, tion followed. On this movement
some OF the active shares declined a
point with considerable heaviness in
the copper stocks. Then the market
became quiet, but In the afternoon
there was a good rally which carried
most OF the list to the highest level
o. the day.
On the late decline the market be-
came quiet and there was no forced
selling to speak of The depression
was not general, and few of the
active shares showed considerable re-
sistance -
The market closed quiet.

FRENCH PAPERS FOR SALE
Thief With Valuable Historic Docu

in Madrid.

A French subject has been arrested
in Madrid after trying to sell impor-
tant historical documents stolen, with.
out doubt, from some museum or
French official center. The arrest
was made by policemen, who had the
man under observation, under the pre-
tense OF being probable buyers.
They found upon him the ratification
of the secret treaty of peace between
Louis XIV. and Philip TX. Of Spain
This treaty, commonly called the Ply
renees Treaty, was signed in 1859, and
terminated the war between France
and Spain. In virtue of it Louis mar
ried the Infanta Maria Teresa, Phil
lips daughter.
Another document contains the mar.
riage articles, in which the princess
renounces all rights to the crown OF
Spain. Finally, the man exhibited a
parchment signed by the. emperor
Charles v. The documents present all
the appearance of authenticity. The
two former bear royal seals and the
signatures of Maria Teresa, Louis
XIV. and Philip w.

WHERE SEDAN CHAIR. IS USED
The 3-century-old Vehicle is Still Seen

England.

The news that there is a woman still
living who rode in a Sedan chair is
reminder Of the fact that there Is one
town in England where Sedan chair
is still used. It Is at Knutsford, in
Cheshire-the Crawford" Of Mrs.
Gaskell. Every May day Knutsford
arrays itself in gala attire. Sports are
held on the village green, the May
queen is elected and crowned, and
in order that no aspect of antiquity
should be missing-the Sedan chair is
produced.
Whatever may have been absolutely
the latest date at which Sedan chair
was used, the chair, at any rate, had
longer life than most forms of public
conveyance For it appeared in Eng
land as early as 1881, and in London
fifty years later, when Sir Francis Dun
comb obtained the sole privilege of

New School Sanitation Plan.

A new idea in school sanitation has
been tested by the medical director of
Dartmouth college. About five years
ago he began making bacteriologic ex-
aminations Of the air Of the college
halls and recitation rooms, and soon
found great periodic variation in the
number Of bacteria colonies that de.
veloped on the culture media exposed
in the usual shallow open dishes. He
then adopted the plan Of disinfecting
with formaldehyde any room showing
more than thirty-five colonies Of clus.
tiers Of any kind of bacteria to dish.
This custom has been continued, and
the result has been quite striking, the
cases Of epidemic colds, influenza and
bronchitis, among the students having
been reduced about one-half.

An Excellent Egg Gambler.

of profit as a result Of extra care in
handling and marketing the eggs now
produced; the extra profit is to be
made by obtaining the top retail
price, and, as consumers become
acquainted with the product, by OBJ
tanning a premium of from one to five
cents per dozen over the regular price
pair for ordinary eggs.
In order to obtain top prices TO-
eggs, they must be uniform in sizc
uniform in color, and uniform ii
quality. The uniformity in color is
not always important and depends on
the market; uniformity in size ex-
cludes small eggs and unusually large
ones as well; while uniformity in
quantity calls for absolutely clean eggs
that have been gathered promptly
after being laid, kept under the best
possible conditions, and marketed not
more than three or four days after
they are laid.

FRESH EGGS IN GOOD DEMAND
Little More Attention to Details VIII
Result In Profit, Repaylng Time
and Labor.

(By PROF. A. G. PHILLIPS, Kansas)
The demand for eggs seems practi-
cally unlimited, more especially for
the better grades The growth Of the
storage industry has tended to equal
ize prices by increasing the de-
mand in summer when fresh eggs
are plentiful and supplying the def
cheney in winter when fresh eggs are
scarce.
Since the demand is greatest for
the best grades, it seems obvious that
a. little more attention to details win
result in a profit amply repaying the
extra time and labor involved.
It is not the purpose here to enter
into any discussion of the ways of
Increasing the production of eggs, but
