STOCK MARKET

New York, May Opening days early market operations showed a further reactionary trend, particu- IarIy in those issues which recently dis played greatest strength. Reading recorded an initial decline of l 4 points at 1o7 subsequently going lower. Most other active rails were slightly lower with the exception of New York Central. United States Steel made a small fractional advance with gains of point or more for CrucibIe Steel, General Electric, Baldwin Loco motive and Continental Can. Motors were again prominent at gains of two to five points. Profit taking and short selling combined to depress prices be- fore the end of the first half hour.
 Noon-Reading was the center of concerted attacks during the forenoon, falling to 104 3-4,s a decline of six points from it's record price, made only the day before. Other rails, Rock Island excepted, suffered al though in more limited degree while specia1ties of various character nov ed higher. Chandler Motors rose % to the new high record of 1O5, with gains of 1 to 8 points in dexieans and some of the munitions. These advances were largely surrendered on continuous realizing sales before noon. Bonds were firm

Finnish Grammar.

Finnish grammar is of a difficulty absolutely repulsive. None of the eth- CT languages of the same group is half so hard. Hungarfan-nay, even Turk ish, despite the vexatious initial im- pediment of the Arabic alphabet-is easy in comparison. The syntax is at once provokingly elaborate and per plexingly obscure. It possesses fifteen distinct cases and twenty four differ entiated infinitfve forms; but on the other hand, there is no real distinction between nounss3 adjechves, adverbs, propositions, initiatives and participles, so that the student must not be star tied by finding Yia6nitives regularly de clined like nouns and. nouns taking upon them degrees of comparison like adject1ves.

Measuring Electricity.

The terms volt, ampere, ohm, watt and farad, met with in works on cleo tricity, mean very little to most people. The volt is the unit of electrical pres sure, the ampere the unit of current strength,i the ohm the unit of resist ance, the watt the unit of electric pow CT, and the least of all known, farad, the unit of electrical capacity.
 Current strength is determined by di- viding the pressure by the strength; thus the number of amperes of current strength is equal to the number of volts divided by the number of ohms. The watt indicates the amount of electric energy being used when an ampere of current is flowing under pressure of one volt. However, the term kilowatt, or 1000 watts, is more generally used. The unit of electrical capacity, the farad, will contain one ampere of cur rent at one volt pressure for one second of time. The farad is divided into a million equal parts, each part termed the microfarad. and this is the term most used in stating electrical capacity.
 The great soul of this world is just.- krN-
