Weeks Market Narrow and Dull.
Contrasted with the striking display of
strength by stocks in the days just pre-
ceding, this weeks market was narrow
and dull. Heavy profit taking at the be-
ginning of the week scaled down the re-
cent advance and fluctuations thereafter
were wavering. On neither side OF the
market were the professional operators
able to make Roadway consistently and
speculative sentiment appeared to be con-
fused as to the immediate outlook.
Stiffening of money rates operated as
director check to increased speculative
activity. Both time and call loans were
higher. and the practical difficulty in the
way Of financing an extended bull move
ment tended to restrict efforts to carry
further the vigorous bidding up of prices
Of last week.
Trade news in general was cheerful.
European copper supplies showed FUR
Their decrease. but at home the price OF
the metal was raised by some producers
to IL cents. The foreign trade state
ment for August showed a striking gain
in exports. Improvement in the invest
ment market was indicated by the speedy
absorption Of s1O,OOO.OO0 Baltimore Az

Even a wise man can't help looking
like a fool at his own wedding.
You'll always find an appreciative
listener when you abuse somebody.
The average man wears out q dozen

The father OF twins knows whether
two can live as cheaply as one.
To some women a clear complexion

Petty Gambling in Chicago.
From the Chicago Tribune

The dice game known as "twenty-six'
is worse than slot machine gambling.
The fact that it is not ordinarily, If at
all, PLAYED for cash does not give it any
responsibility. 1t is likely to add the
folly of intemperance to the folly OF
gambling and to lead man not only
to waste his money but to drink to
excess. The fact that saloonkeepers are
organizing to protect this game is proof
enough that they find It vastly profit
PLAYER wins, all he gets is drink or
tobacco. The game is framed against
him. or the saioonkeeper would not have

From the Chicago Tribune.
In the race which communities are
now running against death Missouri
has scored a notable victory. The base
ment home which is one of the best
aids death has, will officially go out OF
existence in Missouri September Is. A
law was passed recently forbidding the
use of cellars for living purposes in
that state. There will no doubt De
many property owners who will pro-
test against this law. They will con-
slider it violation of their constitu-
tional rights. TIE reason for their OPP
posing it will. of course. be quite ap-
parent. Basement property is the best
having property. The up-to-date apart
ment may pay the owner well. but
not nearly as well as the alley shack
or the basement fiat does For the up
keen OF such a home is next to nothing.
