STOCKS CLOSE HEAVY
in TECHNICAL MARKET
Steel Gets Up to Previous High and
Heavy Selling Starts.
By the Internationai New. Service.

Dy the International News serviee.)
New York. Nov. 21.-Stocks closed
heavy today for purely technical rea-
sons. The opening was strong, but
weakness Immediately developed. To-
ward midday the market strengthened
up and Steel touched its previous high
record. Heavy selling again made It's
appearance and continued to the end
The reason for the weakness Is that
the public has been pyramiding the
last few days and particularly in cop
pers and steels. Tuesday being the
time-honored day to shake out the
public in the bull market, professionals
went into the business with a spirit
that accomplished wonders.
Another factor that made 1t easier
for professionals was the almost en-
tire absence of q short interest By
the end of today a short interest OF
some Importance was built up, but not
nearly large enough to give the cor
rect market balance for such tremen-
dous values of stock as are traded in.
So the irregularity may continue for
. day or two longer.
Still another factor is the chagrin Of
the copper insiders at publication OF
their merger plans prematurely. 1t
had all been fixed up for Kennecott to
go to 70. Utah to $50, and Chile to so
before letting the public know about
It. The public rushed In last Saturday
and upset all plans for handling the
stock market. Oficial announcement
was to have been made about Thurs
day or Friday of this week. 1t Is not
stated whether the announcement date
has been postponed as a result OF the
btock embarrassment.
That the copper companies are still
able to increase earnings was proved
by the sale today of spot metal at 35
cents. Producers are less willing to
sell their copper SO far in advance as
has been the practice heretofore

evidence, Men have been hanged for
less. With popping eyes, the group
about the big fire looked to see this
victim of the wrath of the Gods swell
up and fall dead. Instead, Paul shook
the creature into the fire; if he had
been a modern sentimentalist or an
Indian Jain, he would have set 1t at
Liberty and provided food for it, Then
the weather-vane of easy public opinion
swung around to the cry, He is a god!"
He was neither criminal nor a god
but every inch a man and a friend of
man.
From that experience of Paul, with
his subsequent sojourn in the house of
Governor Publius, whose father he heal
ed. is dated the evangelization of the
Island of Malta. Tradition says that
Publius became the first Christian
bishop of Malta. That the people of the
island remained faithful unto death we
know from the inscription on the mar
tyr graves in the Maltese catacombs
So the knightliest of all the figures
associated with Malta left his impress
unto this present day. To him history
has given the Maltese Cross, inscribed
on its four arms with the qualities
which this story eXemplfies: -Rever-
ence. Obedience, Courage and Service.

Peeling the Skin Is
Better Than Bleaching

Ever since the discovery that mercol-
lied wax would absorb and remove a
discolored complexion, its use by ladies
as a substitute for bleaching creams
has grown rapidly. A perfect complex
ion can be maintained indefinitely If
this remarkable substance is used. Its
beneticent cleansing, clearing and pre-
servative action is quickly apparent,
and ladies who have been paying high
prices for special bleach" from beauty
specialists, soon recognize that mercil-
lied wax outranks them all. 1t has be-
come so popular that it can be obtained
one-ounce packages. The favorite way
of using is TO apply 1t like cold cream,
before retiring, washing it off in the
morning.
The saxolite lotion for wrinkles and
the facial contour has also become ex-
tremely popular. One ounce powdered
saxolite is dissolved in one-half pint
witch hazel: Bathing the face in this
has splendid effect in erasing
wrinkles and improving contour.-Ad-

he discovered God.
This world war, despite all the cal
antilles it is bringing upon mankind,
has caused whole nations to slough off
the thick overlay of sordidness and
smallness and self-centeredness and
pleasure loving and pride that encased
them. They have found their souls in
this furnace of affiiction. With one
voice the seers and prophets of our day
are predicting that a purged and en-
obled humanity, a diviner order of So
ciety, a truer organization of brother
hood, will be the sure consequence of
this unparalleled travail. this shipwreck
of the old order. 1t may well be that
future generations will declare the war
to have been worth all 1T cost.
Malta Alloy!
There is no more excitement in Malta
to-day than there was the day the
AleXandrian grain ship went aground.
For the island is a Mediterranean base
of the Allied warships. and these are
stirring times among the people. Again
we find that our course of lessons has
landed us at a present center of world
interest. The fleet makes such busy
times for Malta that the people scarcely
miss the tourist market for Maltese
lace and Maltese curios.
This island upon which Paul and his
companions were wrecked-the geog-
raphies call the spot st. Paul's Bay"
is one of the great little places of
earth. 1t is a rocky bit of land, sew
enteen and one-half miles long and eight
and three-quarters miles wide, almost
midway between Europe and Africa in
the Mediterranean-140 miles from
Europe and $50 from Africa, but only
sixty miles from the island of Sicily.
1t was settled by the Phoeniciaus, and
the natives are still predominantly of
that stock. In 1914 Malta came under
British rule, but from a period prior
to our lesson by many centuries it had

ben prize of nations. For centuries
1t was an outpost against Moslem at
tacks upon Europe; and for two and
half centuries it was ruled by the
knights of Malta, or as their official
title ran, the knights of St John of
Jerusalem. \ modern fraternal order
is called THE knights of Malta" The
population of the island has vastly in
creased of late, and now numbers more
than 200 900.
These facts concerning Malta Itself
are stressed. not only for their inherent
interest, but also because they help
make real the place of Pauls ship
wreck In teaching the Bible no task
is more difficult than to bring the events
down out of the realm of unreality
1t is hard to realize that what Dr. Luke
wrote in the Book of Acts is as ac-
curately historical as the events we
read about in the newspapers. Paul
was real man, who swan ashore
| through real water from the wreck of
real ship onto real island, at
point that may to this day be visited.
Since the Maltese who watched the
escape of the shipwrecked crew and
passengers were neither Greeks nor
Romans. they were in the speech of the
day called "barbarians" or foreign
ers." They received the strangers with
more courtesy than is often shrown TO
aliens in our own land. The weather
was cold and rainy, so the natives
kindled a fire for the comfort of the
strangers.
Easily first among the bedraggled
crew that had been driven ashore by
the storm was Paul, the deliverer of
them all. He might reasonably have
held levee and received the congratu-
lations and thanks of his shipmates
That was not his way. When the spirit

helper in things small and great.
Even as Jesus helped in a social diff
Guilty. at Cana, so Paul quietly set about
gathering hrewood. When we were
boys we had difficulty with fellows who
would not do their share of work for
the bonfire and we had a slogan "chip
or run!' which meant get busy or get
out" Paul was ready for even small
ways of ministering to men. After
all every great life of service is made
up of small deeds often repeated. The
Pauline spirit breathes through Maltie
d. Babcock's lines:
20 Lord l pray
That for this day

BY foot or hand
From thy command
Not to be served, but to serve
