ing that his own case presented an
instance of a cure effected by rad
ium. Seven years ago an epithelio-
ma appeared upon his nose and for
two years it gave him a great deal
of worry. He was subjected to rad
ium treatment and a prompt cure
resulted. This was accomplished by
three applications-one of three min

TO MAKE REPAIRS
ON BAD PAVING
AFTER LONG STRUGGLE MAYOR
HAS SUCCEEDED IN GETTING
ACTION AND WORK BEGINS

For the past six months the mayor
and board of city commissioners
have been after the contractors who
put down the paving on Ardmore's
streets and whose work was backed
by a bond to make some necessary
repairs in places where the pave
ment had been broken, but all their
efforts were unavailing until yester-
day the mayor after making investi-
cation telephoned Mr.. McQuatters
at Dallas and that gentleman stated
that he would have a man here Mon
day morning to begin the work. The
mayor stated thaSthe city had wait
ed as long as it intended to on this
matter and unless there was some
action at once the bond would be
looked to. The paving in the city
has withstood the test remarkably
we'll and there are but few spots that
need repairing all this will take
but a few days to accomplish,

DAILY LETTER
ON FINANCE

New York, Nov. 1S.-An. important
Development toward the resumption Of
regular operations in the leading fr.
nanciaI markets of the, world was rec
orded yesterday when sterling ex-
change fell to normal rates for the
first time since the beginning of. the
war. Gables on London were quoted
at 4.S7 3-4, and sight drafts at 4.S7.
There were heavy offerings of bills,
but buyers were scarce, a fact which
tended to confirm the belief prevalent
in many quarters that local banking
interests with foreign obligations had
purchased more exchange than they
found was necessary.
Another feature bearing directly
upon this development was the call
by the banking syndicate which re-

falling due in London and Paris. With
this subscription fully three -fourths
Of the entire 500, 900 will have been
paid, causing further gold exports to
Ottowa. Exchange on Germany fell
to new low figure, the decline being
attended by reports of the establish
ment of additional merchandise credits
by Hamburg and Frankfort interests.
Inere were IurLner 1nQlcaJlOnS IndL
preparations were being quietly made
to reopen the stock exchange, pre-
sumably on a restricted basis with
dealings only for cash. Authorities
of the exchange today not only re-
moved the ban prohibiting the publ
cation of curb quotations, but an
nouncement was made that some
houses with exchange memberships
were reinstalling private wires to out
of-toWn points.
On the other hand, adVices from
London were Of a less reassuring char
acter, SO far as they. had to do with
| the resumption of market dealings
there. The governments refusal to
extend the moratorium would, it was
feared, necessitate more liquidation,
especially in American issues. For
the first time in some weeks the Bank
of England failed to show q gold in
crease in it's returns; instead, the bank
lost about a million dollars, incident
ally showing a slight falling off in
liability reserves.
The ruling Of the federal reserve
board defining commercial paper is ex-
pected to make some changes in rates
soon after the new system gets under
way. Additional retirement Of emer.

banks, bringing the total Of that move
