intrinsic underlying value upon which
bonds and stocks are based.
1t is conceivable that many perfectly
good real estate mortgages, industrial
bonds and stocks and other similar Sc
curities of a local character have either
been utterly destroyed in value or greatly
weakened in value by this catastrophe.
From an investment standpoint, the
losses will fall most heavily, of course,
upon the men and women who are so
foolish as to have all their investments
conferred at one point. Possibly an es-
tate invested altogether in mortgages on
homes in one section of the city of CO.

gether in the stocks and bonds of some
local industry in Dayton, or life insur-

to regain any part Of the big loss it has
made since the new issue of stock was

strong on rumors of coming increase

bought for European account. In the
afternoon selling pressure increased and
traders raided the market quite vigor-
ously, forcing declines all along the line.
These declines, however, did not go far.
and good support was given at the low
level, and the market rallied in a listless
sort Of way before the close. Call money
was easy, but time money remained firm
and unchanged. A favorable bank state

hood on Forcstalls Future Sc.
rious Diseases.

We cannot all start with the adj
vantages of money. but every child
born Is entitled to the heritage Of good
health. Through unfortunate ignor-
ance or c~arelessness in the feeding of
a baby its tiny stomach may become
deranged. The disorder spreads to the
bowels and before the mother realizes
1t the two chief organs on which the
nfant's comfort and health depend
are causing 1t great suffering. If the
condition Is allowed to continue grave
ailments often result.
There Is, however. no occasion for
alarm. and the sensible thing to do
but 1t should be done instantly-is to
give the baby a small dose of a mild
laxative tonic. In the opinion of a
great many people, among them such
well-knoWn persons as the parents of
Dixie Dudley. Magnolia. Ark. the
proper remedy is DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. Mrs. Earl Dudley writes: DR..
CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin is the best
medicine l ever used. 1t cured my
baby of f1atulency collie when the doc

~ant-tasting laxative, which every per-
son likes. 1t is mild. non-griping, and
contains that most excellent of all d.
