STOCK MARKET .

New York, May 17-Opening- dications of further profit taking were seen at the opening of today's stock market. prices showing irregular ad- vances and declines Motor shares, particularly Studebaker, were lower, and Industrial Alcohol rose sharply after scoring after an initial decline. Crucible Steel manifested similar ten- dencies and other war issues were fractiona11y lower. Substantial gains in Mexican Petroleum and Texas Co., suggested impro vement in the Mexi- can situation and the strength of Mercantile Marines denoted further accumulation. United States Steel and the leading rails were bare1y steady at the outset but hardened later with the balance of the list.
 Noon: Dealings became more re- stricted and the movement as a whole increasingly difficult of analysis after the early recovery. Stakeholder ex- tended it's setback to over three points with further pressure against Baldwin, Alcohol and some metal issues. Other specialties pursued a contrary course, General Electric leading the equip ments and IndustriaIs with an ad- vance of 3 A to 70A while Harvester Corporation, usually very inactive, ad- vanced 8 14 to 84. Reading featured the rails which were inclined to shade with other standard stocks at noon. Bonds were steady with extensive dealings in Anglo-French hves

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE.

The first formal record in the pos session of the New York Stock Elk change bears date of May 1T, 1792. just 124 years ago today, and is as follows: we, the subscribing brokers for the purchase and sale of public stocks, do hereby so1emnIy promise and pledge ourselves to each other that we will not buy or sell from this day for any person whatsoever, any kind of public stock at a less rate than one-quarter per cent. commis- sion on the specie value, and we will give a preference to each other in our negotiations" This agreement was the foundation on which the great financial fabric of the New York Stock Exchange has been rear ed. For a. quarter of a century the brokers of the American metropolis carried on their activities under this compact, and held their meetings in a Wall street coffee house and under a buttonwood tree at No. 68 Wall street. Tn 1917 the brokers who formed the association decided that a stronger organization was needed, and launched the New York Stock and Exchange Board This name was used until 1868, when it was changed to New York Stock Exchange.

ENJOYING THE WEST

Mrs. Agnes Murray, who, with her
daughter, Miss Margaret, is spending
the winter in Tucson, Arizona, in writ
ing recently to a Wausau friend, tells
of the beautiful warm, sunny days they
are enjoying, living in the open most
of the time and even writing their
letters on the porch. Mrs. Murray
writes that the miles and miles of
desert in Arizona do not add to the
attractiveness of the state and that
the soil is so alkali, that even though
watered, very little grows but the cac-
tus, but in the city of Tucson the
yards and lawns are made with earth
and fertilizer that are shipped in from
more fertile states, and when that is
considered, the city is wonderful in its
beauty. The mountains are grand and
beautiful and almost completely sur
round Tucson.
Mrs. Murray writes that the Wo-
mans club of Tucson has fine build
ing recently completed, costing $2O,-
900. The club has a large member
ship. Tourists are always welcome
and may become members II they
wish and may avail themselves of this
| privilege. Auto hunting is popular
| sport in Tucson, and Mrs. Murray and
| Miss Margaret were recently guests OF
| hunting party where the men got
! forty-five quail and fourteen cotton
| tails, and the same day one OF the
| party killed a rattlesnake which
measured five feet, with eleven rattles.
While Mrs. Murray is pleased with, and
contented in Arizona, she likes Wis
consin better and will be happy to be
| at home in Wausau in the spring.

Danger Signal

If the fire bell should ring would you
run and stop it or go and help to put
out the fire? 1t is much the same way
with a cough. A cough is a danger
signal as much as a fire bell. You
should no more try to suppress it than
to stop fire bell when it is ringing,
but should cure the dis ease that causes
the coughing. This can nearly always
be done by taking Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. Many have used it
with the most beneficial results. 1t
is especially valuable for the persist
ent cough that so often follows a bad
cold or an attack of the grip. Mrs.
Thomas Beeching, Andrews, Ind,
writes: During the winter my hus-
band takes cold easily and coughs and
coughs. Chamberlain Cough Remedy
is the best medicine for breaking up
these attacks and you cannot get him
to take any other" Obtainable every
where.

WANTS HORNED BUCK LAW

Game Warden Will Cole of Vesper,
and Jay Kelsey, warden of Stevens
Point, were business visitors in town
Thursday. Mr. Cole is of the opinion
that the Wisconsin deer law should be
similar to the state of Maine law, the
only deer that you can shoot there
is the deer with horns, instead of the
buck law as Wisconsin has, and he
would be in favor of having Wood
county open the same as Juneau,
Adams and Clark, the adjoining coun-
ties. These gentlemen spent most of
the deer season together in Taylor
county-Grand Rapids Reporter.

CHHDREN'S INFIRMARY
A Wausau Institution Doing a Great
Deal of Good Work.

One of the very helpful, necessary
and growing institutions of our city
is the Childrens Infrmary on North
Fifth street. The Infirmary, under the
efficient supervision of Miss Elizabeth
Tessendorf, is doing much charitable
work for patients in the Infirmary,
patients outside, destitute families and
needy individuals. Many new avenues
of relief are opening up continually
and the work is constantly growing
and broadening out, which means con-
siderable is needed to keep the insti-
tuition in satisfactory running order.
Supplies are always needed. Do
nations of anything that can be used
by the visiting nurse, Miss Tessendorf,
in the Infrmary or for patients and
needy homes, are always highly appre
ciated. The field work in connection
with the Infirmary is getting heavier
and this means that donations can
always be used. In the Infrmary is
loan chest" and the following is a
list of things needed now that friends
of the Infirmary will undoubtedly be
glad to help secure:
Hot Water Bottles
Towels
Sheets
Pillow Slips
Dresser Scarfs
Table Cloths
Blankets
Rugs, Gust now 1 rug, 6x9 feet, is
needed.)
Canned Fruits
Vegetables
Jams and Jellies
Bed Spreads (three-quarter size)
| Pair of Braces.
Miss Tessendorf has a case now,
where child four years of age, needs
braces for his legs. Anyone having
braces that would do for this pur-
pose, and want to donate them, can
call up the Infirmary.
A drug cabinet is also a necessary
| thing in this institution, where medi-
| cines of all kinds must always be kept
for emergency cases as we'll as others.
Tho drug bill is one of the very large
items in the expenditures.
Many operations are performed at
the Infirmary. Whenever families are
unable to pay for operations, they are
made free of charge and the patients
cared for. OF course, there are many
| paid operations also.
| The Infrmary does much more work
than citizens of Wausau realize. 1t
may well be called an laid bureau"
| The institution looks after homeless
children; cares for homeless girls I'M
til they secure employment and get in
to homes, and many other things.
During the winter months there is
always more illness and if friends of
the Infirmary will call up that insti-
! tuition whenever they know of family
| in their neighbOrhood, where there is
| oIOhuCoS, anu IlClp 10 lSSuCU, JuS flS-
iting nurse will be glad to go to such
| families and help them. Friendly Wis
! its will also help these families and
add little cheer. Where assistance
is needed the visiting nurse will help
| these people.
The Children's Infirmary cooper
ates with the Federated Charities and
| the local Anti-Tuberculosis society
whenever opportunity presents itself.
Miss Tessendorf has, from January
1, 1916 up to December 1, 1916, had
627 patients; made 1866 calls, not in
Guiding calls for Baby Week. She
made 245 calls in the interest of Baby
Week. Mrs. Peterson, her assistant,
takes care of many of the investiga-
| ton calls.
