STOCK MARKET REVIEW
Technical Position Better
Some IrrequIarity at Closing.

The action of the stock market yes
terday gave a technical exhibition OF
improvement. Instances Of activity
and strength were periodical. the times
between energetic impulses being
simply relaxation tending to dulness.
Throughout the course Of trading the
fine Italian hand of the professional OPP
orator was In evidence. and movements
were made comparatively easy by the
plentiful supply Of low rate money
The beginning Of the session was
marked by irregularity. and during the
early part of the first hour price
changes were comparatively few.
Around the beginning OF the second
hour there was considerable increase
OF strength, particularly in specialties
Bethlehem Steel the fractions, Pitts
burgh Coal issues, the Texas Company
and some others were the features.
/ The market, however, did not con
tinue its advance, but in the early
afternoon became very dull. one OF
the unusual movements yesterday WAS
trading in Colorado Fuel. which ad-
vanced on limited trading. the excuse
being that generally favorable Western
business warranted an Improvement.
In the late afternoon bullish activity
was quite pronounced. but transactions
did not suggest that the large interests
were favorable to a rapidly advancing
market Canadian Pacific displayed an
IMPROVEMENT and ST. Paul sold up.
The coppers shared In the price better
ment. as did also Union Pacific. Balti-
more & Ohio Now York, New Haven &
Hartford and Chicago Great Western.
At the close there was very attractive
display Of gains. but IN some issues re-
cessions were manifested. so that the
trend was Influenced by an irregu
larity.
Among the developments ~ the
/ day was the expected announcement of
financing by the Baltimore &; Ohio.
I The directors voted 10 offer S63250.0 o0
of AZ per cent twenty-year bonds TO
preferred and common stockholders at
a price Of 95la. The distribution will
be made In a proportion OF three bonds
| for every ten shares of stock held,
( bonds to be convertible into common
stock at 10 for a ten-year period. The
foreign dispatches were favorable. both
as regards the money situation and
! the expectation OF favorable settlement
Of the political differences. The return
Of the Bank Of England for the week
was a distinct improvement over last
weeks showing From 1880 per cent,
recorded last week in proportion Of re-
serve TO liabilities. there was an in
crease 10 As per cent comparing with
a. per cent for the corresponding
period In 1912. The subject Of interest
among the traders. aside from the Cop
per producers report, the Union Pa
cifc question and some minor topics.
was the expected appearance to-day OF
the figures Of tho United States Steel
Corporation. showing untitled orders on
hand on December 81. Various estl-
mates placed the increase from 45. OO0.-
600 to 5OOOO,OO0 tons over the Novem-
Der figures. and II this be true the
largest end of the-year showing for
1912 will be made in the history Of this
corporation.

Imitation Fur For the School Girl.

Imitation Fur For the School Girl.
Again are the imitation furs greatly
to be welcomed in coats for misses
wear, for the school girl and for chill
dren. With good warm lining, a
coat of plush will withstand the Sc
verest winter and will give entire
satisfaction to the mother and to the
style, since it will of a necessity be
cut on the best lines of the season.
In the garments for younger people,
whether the fabric is a very close imi-
tation or q more undeceiving plush.
it is really wiser thing to choose.
since it will most likely have to be
replaced next season by larger gar
ment. the growth of the child making
real fur out of the question. and so
generally frowned upon even by moth
ers who can afford it, since it seems
so impractical. A stylish touch with
the imitation fur coat that is to serve
for school or for dressy use. will be
found in the hat or bonnet that is
trimmed with material that matches
the plush coat, or the collar and cuffs
of fabric seal or beaver that gives the
touch of warmth and style to the coat
of cloth. This idea of harmonizing
the entire costume. even if it is the
simplest and most Inexpensive. gives
an attractive and admiration COM
pelling completeness that far outdoes
inartistic costliness.

TO Bliss ZHE HOMSE. .NLZTE

INVENTION is very busy removing
the Adam curse from housework
at least-and filing every nook
y and every hook. every shelf and
every tray of the kitchen and of the
saving. and-oh, blessed-hand saw
ing devices. And the best thing of
all is that the consideration of beauty
has certainly not been overlooked. for
why is not the kitchen beautiful as
much human need. as much q bless
ing to the house wife. as is-say. the
"parlor" beautiful?
Now, for instance, here is little
kitchen or pantry cabinet, to be hung
on hooks in just the handiest possible
place, so that the housewife may
not move out of her way or take time
hunting for misplaced cans. The
cans. by the way, or the packages,
may be set into the drawers, or bet
ter, emptied into them, after the walls
have been well lined with paraffine
paper or some protecting stuff to pre-
serve the strength and flavor of cof-
fee and spices, for example.
That such a little cabinet is useful

effectiveness is evident at glance

tone, the bottles and holders in prac-
tical yet pretty shapes. the cabinet it
self cut on artistic lines-surely there
is beauty and a cheer in it that
will add much to the pleasantness of
the kitchen and so of the home.
In making purchases of kitchen
utensils it is just as easy, just as eco
nomical to take a little thought and
select the ones that make the light

you see, is two utensils in one the

have been hurled at the woman

wrap made of fabric broadtail. and
enriched with a touch of ermine, or
rather of white rabbit. which makes
a very pretty substitute for ermine,
is drawn in closely below the hips,
after the manner of coats that are
intended to give a width about the
hips, presumably to make room for
the wide draperies of the frock. which
narrow in below the knees. and some-
times dwindle to nothing about the
feet. The roominess of this garment
came in the loose kimono cut of the
upper part. sloping into wide sleeves
and a fullness about the middle, leav-
ing ample space beneath for loops and
fluffy bows, frills and crushable
blouses The lining of this wrap is
a soft charmeuse satin in bright
green, printed with tiny apples in red
and green, after the Modern Art pat
tern and colorings. The Innings of
fabric furs are as rich in texture and
colorlng, as soft and Z pliable. as
are the Innings of their more
costly rivals-brocaded stuffs, print
ed silks, satins, and even chiffons

One of the most charming of the
fabric furs is that made in imitation
of chinchilla or rather suggestion of
the soft gray of this expensive fur.
for it often has a heavier. more plush
like effect and a luster not found
in the real article, but which, never
theless, renders it most attractive.
most acceptable as dressy garment
Another imitation fur that is very
smart is like astrakhan or Persian
lamb, sort that permits of very
dressy trimming.
Real Fur Trims Coats of Imitation
Fur.
Fur trims fur this year, and so
nothing is more to be expected than
that fur-real fur-should trim the
coats made of imitation fur. touch
of fur this season is as inevitable as
are draperies-just narrow band Of
It on the coat for general use, wider
trimmings of it on more dressy ones.
Pretentious collars about the neck or
reaching into long wide revers, bands
like the Japanese collar, running
about the neck and down the front.
wide cuffs, ornaments, in any sort of
real fur that is used for trimming
purposes-and they nearly all are
and which combines well with the es-
pecial fur in question. Skunk and fox
are good in trimmings. while the
lighter toned pelts, like ermine. chin
chilla and civet give a very ldesirabl
contrast with the sombre tone of the
coat material.
Fabric Fur Used As Trimming Ma
teriai.
As a trimming material fabric fur
itself is not to be outdone, and is used
with very beautiful effect in the col
lars, cuffs and characterization of cloth
coats and suits, just as rich in APP
pearance as the real would be. In
fact it takes the place of fur even
in the garniture of dressy frocks-
bit Of imitation broadtail or of seal
plush making very desirable addi-
ton to a silk crepe froclS or to a
chiffon blouse. Thus the woman who
must discuss the weighty matter of
purse versus style. will find friend
worth cultivating this season in the
| fabric fur that comes by the yard in
| the shops. and which will give the re-
\ quired elegance and chic to the frock
| created by the home dressmaker.
