World supremacy in lawn tennis
rests with the United States. The
struggle for the Davis trophy ended
on the Wimbledon (England) courts
in a victory for the United States.
Maurice E. Mclaughlin and R. Morris
Williams were the victorious team.
English lawn tennis critics are UNI
stinted in their praise of the game
played by NJ. E. Mclaughlin, the
American champion, in the match for
the Davis Cup. They gave the credit
for playing the greatest tennis ever
seen on the Wimbledon courts.

Stock Exchange Inquiry.

New York.-FolloWing what was re-
garded as a short sale of United States
government two per cent. bonds the
authorities Of the Stock Exchange
have undertaken a quiet investigation,
with the result that E. A. Manice, of
the firm of E. A. Manice and Co..
brokers for David Lamar, has been
summoned before the committee on
business conduct.
The transaction aroused immediate
suspicion from the fact that it was
made with a proviso that the bonds
should be delivered at the end Of
twenty days, without interest.
The matter was taken up by the
Committee on Business Conduct,
which discussed the transaction in
the light of its probable effect on the
standing of the Exchange at Wash
ington. The member who sold the
bonds admitted that he had seriously
erred, and expressed contrition for
having unwittingly heightened an i'm

recent low quotations on government

tary of the Treasury McAdoo's declar-

bonds was due to a conspiracy of the
banks themselves in order to dis.

Gruels are cooked mixtures of flour
and grains with water or milk. The

lily digested unless well cooked.
Gruels should be taken slowly, in
order to allow the saliva to act upon
the starch and be thoroughly mixed in
the mouth.

tablespoonfuls of fine sifted cracker
crumbs, a teaspoonful of sugar and a
teasponful of salt; cook with a cup of

We may say of Christ as simply as
the Psalmist said of God. Evil shall
not dwell with thee. Yet it is said
of him of whom it stands written as
the very characteristic of his life,
This Mar receiveth sinners" And
that, when we come to the point, is
what forgiveness means. 1t means the
