FoR eAeYs COUGHS AND coLps.

Do not give that little baby cough syrup designed for older people. The tender organism requires something specially designed for it.
 The very best remedy, we believe, is Rexall Baby Cough Syrup. There is nothing in it that can harm the most delicate infant, although it is most efficient in the treatment of coughs hoaTseness, Wfhooping cough, and sim liar diseases of the air passages.
 It is so pleasant 10 take and so pleasant In results that we know, once you use 1t for baby, you will be grate- ful to us for having recommended it to you. We promise you that if you do not find 1t exactly what we have claimed for it. and if 1t does not ru- lieye baby's cough and cold, the money you paid for it will he refunded immc- diately upon your telling us.

London, Jan, 25.--W ork has been commented on another great scheme to reclaim by irrigation vast -racts of desert in the Soudan. II is be- lieved it can be made to add enor- mously to the cotton output of the British Empire.
 The tract which is to be watered is known as the Gizra territory. r. lies between the Blue and White Niles, below Khartoum, and consists of 1900 900 acres. The force and flow of the two rivers is sufficient to water the entire district when properly harnessed. The proposal is to build dams south of Khartoum, one over each of the rivers. Thus the tract between the streams will be irrigated, while at the same time the force of the water flowing into Egypt will be controlled. At pres ent the Blue Nile comes down in a raging flow. and the White Nile, flowing in a steadier 'ashion. com pines with it to make huge over flow. The building of the two dams will enable the flow to be properly regulated and will practically mean the final harnessing of the Nile
 Countess Moitor, of Russia, has drawn her plans for the crossing of Arabia for the west to east, including the exploration of the Ruba el Khali Desere, a region of 100000 square miles which no European has ever entered, and which is probably the most mysterious and inaccessible re- zion in the world Whether it con tains, as some believe, remains of buried cities, or whether the whole is nothing but arid sand, none can say, for 1t is very doubtful whether ever a native has crossed more than the outskirts of the desert. Countess Molitor has already done considera- lble travelling alone in South West Africa
 "Iintend." she said. "to travel alone so far as Europeans are concerned, for I beliye this 10 be the safest course. I shall dress and live as an Arab. My plans have been discussed with the Geographical Society who admit the immense interest attached to the desert, but make no secret of the dangerous character of the jour- ney.
 Prom Diara I shall travel 10 Teims, the point from which several unsuccessful attemps have been made to get into the hear of sthe country. This part of the journey will invilve a couple of weeks travel over mountains My next objective will be Tamreh, there weeks journey to the southward over difficult noun tain country. Tamreh is the last point in the desert marked on he map and the twelve hundred miles of desert betwenn that place and Muscat, is absolutely unknown. One of the greatest perils will be absence of water, but l am arranging to trav- el in the spring when my she-camels will have a plentiful supply of milk. Easing my rate of progress by camel as 90 miles daily, I should with luck, emerge at Muscat in May.

A board of architects which has been considering the preservation of St Paul's Cathedral is discussing a remarkable scheme The idea is the immersion of the foundations in a huge tank of moist earth.
 , ENper- builders have found that the sand and gravel in which the cathedral foundations stand have be- come parched and unstable, and, ow- ing to the plateau formation on 4he summit of which the foundation rest, there is tendency for the founda- tions to spread. Until recently be gravel on which St Paurs is poised has been bound together by the nat ural moisture Altering through from the surface, contributing to the sta bility of the edifice. The paving in the enclosures, the substitution of concrete for kidney pebble road and the surface drainage system have de- priyed the subsoil of this necessary moisture. Other cases are cited in London district. where similar injury has been caused to buildings by the drainage of the soil in which the foundations are buried.
 To preserve St. Paurs 1t is pro

Dr. W. E Cell, American explorer and writer has just concluded a tour of Asia Minor and Egypt where he went to study educational ins i' tutions in Mohammedan countries. He visited the American colleges at Assiout. the American Robert col lege in Constan.inople, and the Syri- an4American college at Beyrout and found that the number of Moham- medan students had become so large there was no longer room for any more of them. In one college he found Bugarians, Servians, Montene- grins. Greeks and Turks and where yer he went he struck by the increas- ing desire of Mohammerans 70 know English and to study the Bible, and a remarkable eagerness of M0slem parents to educate their daughters D Geil declares that the educational and religious movement which is talk ing place .oday on the border of he Mediterrenan is real and widespread.

REVIEW OF The
STOCK MARKET
Quiet Trading-Surplus of
the Banks Reduced
Big Cash Loss.

Price changes in yesterdays stock
market were altogether less significant
than the steadness Of the upward
movement. Among the leading stocks
there were a few losses scored on the
day. but they were properly attribut-
able 10 particular causes that had moth
ing to do with the general course OF
prices. Trading was quiet, with firm
undertone. There was no reaction or
importance at any time in the session.
In the absence of important news de-
velopments which might have affected
sentiment professional traders did lit
tie TO extend their commitments on
either side of the account. There was
some selling of Northern Pacific on
continued reports OF new financing in
prospect, the story this time being that
the company was planning 10 follow
the example of Great Northern and
issue stock. The report. however,
seems at least premature, as the notes
which 1t was said would be paid off
with the proceeds OF a stock sale do not
mature until four months hence. The
shares of the several steel companies
and some Of the equipment issues were
rather stronger than others on reports
of more active business in the steel
and iron trade. Reports from Pitts
burgh are that the steel mills as
whole are operating at about 70 per
cent of capacity.
Weakness of the Rock Island issues
in London was communicated 10 this
market, the common shares losing IA
points and the preferred l point.
There was no special reason for the de-
cline. and it probably reflected merely
one Of those shifts in sentiment which
have been common since it was deter
mined to reorganize the system.
There was nothing fresh in the days
news from Mexico that was likely to
have any effect on stocks. Wall Street
interest, in fact, was centred on things
nearer home. The recommendation Of
the Clearing House Committee, in its
report defining commercial paper for
the purposes Of the new federal reserve
banking system. that there be restored
trade methods whereby the purchaser
gave his note to the order of the seller,
in place Of the present system of buy
ers resorting to bank borrowings, was
read with much interest and approval.
The efficiency Of the old method, which
is that prctised abroad. in aiding to
make an elastic circulation is not to be
doubted
President Rea, in his remarks &C
companying the annual report OF the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, voiced
again. but more eloquently, the feeling
among railroad managers that little
progress can be made until some means
is afforded Of bringing wage increases
and railroad rates into direct relation
with each other.
The bank statement provided some
unpleasant surprises. Loans showed a
gain of $40, so, 900. or much more than
was expected, and cash holdings de-
creased heavily. falling off more than
S5,4OO,0 900. There was a consequent
decrease in surplus reserve Of S7,S3S.-
$50 bringing that item down to SOC
7775,SOO.
