LITTLE CHANGE NOTICED ON THE
NEW YORK MARKET YESTERDAY
UP FATHER

NEW YORK. Jan. 2S.-In the alb
sence of e influences to give direc-
ton to speculative effort. the stock
market today travelled over much TIE
same ground as In the preceding ses-
sion. Fluctuations were Irregular, ris-
ing and falling In a purposeless way.
The first tendency was downward. af-
ter which the market rose above yes
terday's close. The upturn lacked
stability. however. Spectators were
uncertain which way 20 turn. Reading
held first place in the market, on ac-
count OF vigorous buying which for
a time held the stock we'll over the
general level. Exceptional weakness
prevailed in the Rock Island stocks
and bonds. leading to discussion OF
financial problems which the company
may be called upon to solve. The to-
>bacco stocks as a group. were strong.
Reports OF improvemtn in the copper
trade gave a better tone to the copper
stocks after a drop earlier I'm the day.
Sales OF the metal were made at 144
cents. Fol The first time In months
commercial paper was placed under
4 per cent. Total sales 457, 100 shares.
The recent upward movement in
bonds was checked. Various points q
heaviness appeared. Total sales par
value $3,650.000. United States bonds
were unchanged on call.

CAUSES or NERVOUSNESS.
Nearly All Nerve Troubles Arc due
To Other Disorders.
New York America

Almost every little or great ailment
throughout your system affects your
nerves. Your eyes and liver and lungs
and stomach M heart and many 9TH
er things throughout your system all
take it OUT on the poor nerves if
they happen to be a bit out OF order
themselves.
Recent discoveries SHOW that 90 Der
cent OF ncrvous troubles are due to
other disorders. Eye strain is one
cause. Not only those who have to
use their eyes constantly, like stu.
dents and lapidaries and miniature
artists and engravers. but city folks
who live and work where their vision
is restricted, are all sufferers from
nervous troubles, more or less.
The Y wants to get exercise as
we'll as the muscles. Living in mar
row streets and gazing out across lit.
tie alleys against brick walls. rush
ing into narrow cars and hurryine in
to small rooms. all keep the vision
down t. narrow limits and pretty
soon y strain sets in and this brings
on trouble.
And one Of the peculiarities of this
is that many people will not notice
that they have y strain because the
nervous disorders that result will be
SO much worse than the u Eve
