Argentine and Indian wheat crops, caused
by dry weather, while corn is shade

the government corn crop and good fall

though spots fell 10 points, and reports
as to spinners buying being encouraging,
but it sagged on Tuesday on liquidation,

industry. affected as II IS by overbuilding

Chary About Bonus Gift.

Members of the board Of supervision
who receive only a participation In prof.
its may resign their position at any ume'
but members who, besides participating
IN nrofts. receive bonuses can only do SO
for important reasons. This rule is sub
feet TO charge by statute, and In some OF
che recent corporations changes nave been
made Boards OF supervision are com
PEELED by law not only. In stock corpora
tons but IN limited partnership, and some
NJ the large banking institutions are or
ganized as partnerships limited by shares.
Cooperative societies are also compelled
TO maintain board OF supervision, but
limited liability companies are exempt.
Members of the board Of supervision OF
sreat corporations Of Germany are liable
20 be sued on criminal grounds for ac-
tions on the part Of employees, which are
merely neglectful. There have not been
many liability suits against members Of
the boards of supervision, as 1t has been
a practice when accidents have occurred
due TO official negligence for the mem
bers TO pay for any damage incurred
without waiting to have their liability
conclusively proven. In this way many
occurrences which in the United States
would be made public have been concealed
and losses have been made up without
any publicity. The risk incurred by
boards Of supervision and the necessity
for men of higl standing TO assume d.
rectorships naturally necessitate liberal
compensation. Members of the Hamburg
American Line few years ago received
about 5000 marks each, while the presi-
dent of the board was paid about 10000
marks. In recent years the compensation
has been reduced and the average annual
fees of members of the German boards Of
supervision Of large corporations in gen.
eral nuctuate between 1890 and 5000
marks each.
A higher state Of efficiency is insured
by legal responsibility and a careful Sc
lection of boards of directors, bat ii must
be recognized that the compensation
should be attractive enough TO men Of
ability with a thorough knowledge of each
particular line of business carried on by
corporation 10 bring the standard of d.
rectorship in the United States up to a
higher plane and do away with both
dummies and the Indifferent directors who
most Of the time do not attend meetings
and who, If they do. know very little
about the actual inside workings of the
corporation business.

On November 10 the Railroad Commits
sion of Louisiana will take up the ques-
ton of passenger tariff In the state, In

maximum passenger fare of two cents

After continued negotiations with grain
shippers an announcement has been made
by the Illinois Central that an elevation
allowance OF 4 cent a bushel on grain
shipped to Chicago from Mississippi Val
ley points will be made.
In September the Atlantic Coast Line,
the Seaboard Air Line, the Norfolk &

to reduce freight rates from points west
OF Buffalo and Pittsburgh to various
points I'm North Carolina. The Legislat-
ure OF the State of North Carolina has
approved of an adjustment suggested by
the State Corporation Commissioners
after consultation with the railroads. and
Il is estimated that the total reduction or
freight bills will amount to s2,OcO,0O year.
said to be the largest reduction ever
made by railroads to any state at one
time. The new rates will go into effect
after the tariff can be prepared and legal
notice given.

To Gain Flesh

The thin woman with awkward
lines and protruding bones and who
courts flesh can round out her an
giles and eliminate her awkwardness
of sharp lines and homely bones by
plenty of fresh air and sunshine and
good, wholesome foods.
The lean woman's diet is exactly
opposite to her sister with her re-
dundance of adipose tissue. She
must partake of those foods which
are most nourishing and easily di-
gested.
Cereals are excellent and all of
the starchy vegetables, such as po-
tatoes, peas, beans, corn. beets. car
rots, sage, tapioca, rice, parsnips,
turnips and cauliflower. Game and
poultry can be eaten and drink as
much milk and cocoa as possible.
Take a glass of warmed milk, slipping
slowly, between meals and another
before going to bed. Some women
cannot digest milk, and in it's place
take either cocoa or a raw egg
Bisque and cream soups encourage
the laying on of flesh, and so also
does macaroni. Meats should be eat
en- according to taste, but if you have
any regard for your complexion you
will cut out pork and veal and also
pickles. shun all pie crusts and hot,
fresh breads and an over-indulgence
in sweets.
