Meaning of Half Hast.

Ever since flags were used in war,
says the Yorkshire Post, it has been
the custom to have the emblemsof the
superior or conquering nation above
that of the inferior or vanquished.
When an army found itself hopelessly
beaten it hauled it's flag down far
enough for the flag of the victors to
be placed above it on the, same pole.
That was a token not only Of submis-
sion. but Of respect. In those days
when a famous soldier died\fags were
lowered out Of respect to his memory.
The custom long ago passed into COM
mon use. The flag flying at half mast
is a sign that one is dead who was
worthy of universal respect. The
space left above the flag is for the flag
of the great conqueror Of all-the an
gel Of death.

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee at any
pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the
tea, put cup of boiling water upon
it, pour through a sieve and drink a
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. 1t is the most
effective way to break cold and cure
grip. as it opens the pores of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus driving cold from the
system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. 1t is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

FINANCIAL and COMMERCIAL
MARKET TRADING FALLING OFF.
Various Explanations Of the Diminish
ed and Irregular Movement.

New York, April 22-Trading in the
stock market today fell away in mark
ed manner, total transactions falling
far short of the recent daily average
of million or more shares. Various
theories and deductions were advanced
in explanation of the diminished and
irregular movement, these ranging
from political to industrial and tech
nical conditions.
AS matter of fact, to the dispas-
sionate observer, events of the past
few days. including heavy foreign and
domestic selling, with an admixture
of professional operations for the de-
cline, seemed to make today's outcome
a matter Of logical sequence. Lowest
prices were scored in the last hour.
when the list recovered from its tor

of one to two points in numerous i'm
portant stocks.
Prices moved contrari1y from the
outset. standard stocks and the low
er grade railways tending downward,
while coppers moved to higher quo
tations. Dealings in the metal shares
were the largest Of any particular
group, far exceeding those in such
leaders as United States Steel, Read
ing and the Pacific.
The minor railways were again un-

Island recetv6Ship, Missouri Pacific
and Missouri. Kansas and Texas de-
noting especial weakness, probably as
a result Of their approaching financial
reorganization. Tobacco issues and a
score of secondary industrials and
equipment stocks made more or less
substantial advances. some Of which
were retained at the close.
Investment conditions offered more
encouragement than was found in the
stock market. The new issue of New
Haven notes rose to a slight premium
over the subscription price and a fur

York Central debentures. Increased

report of the placing of more Euro

BROWN TRACK TEAM OUT

The Brown University track team is
practicing faithfully for its dual meet
with Amherst May 1 at Amherst. The
team is weak in the sprints. but is
very strong in the longer runs. In the

trio able to look after Browns in
