a restricted territory at a price fixed
by it.
The court very clearly distinguishes
the contract and methods of the Ford
company from those adversely passed
upon by the courts in previous de-
cisions. and in conclusion states:
80 far as we are advised by the
contract, and that is all that we have
before US, the plaintiffs (Ford Motor
Company system Of selling its cars
cannot be made the means OF laying
an unreasonable restraint upon the
free play of competition or dealing op-
pressively with the public. Presum-
ably the contract was adopted in good
faith, to accomplish an object which
apparently in itself is legitimate. 1t
is of no present interest that in some
of its provisions it may be harsh, or
even unenforceable as against the con-
signee; he Is not complaining. II he
desires to withdraw from the relation,
that is his right, but he cannot at the
same time claim all the benefits Of the
contract and repudiate its burdens"

BLAMES HUSBANDS
MOTHER In SUIT
Mrs. Blanche Brooks Files Action
Against Husband.

Too much adopted mother-in-law"
is charged in the suit for limited d.
Sorce MED yesterday in the District
supreme Court by Blanche NJ. Brooks
against Ernest B. Brooks. a plate
printer at the Bureau of Engraving
ana Printing. The wife, who is q
yeowoman in the Naval. Reserve, hav-
ing enlisted last March, and being
detailed at the Navy Yard, AYERS that
the understanding was when they
married In January. 1909. that they
were to have a home all 10 them
selves and not have their relatives
around.
She left a refined home to marry
him, she states. and his constant
cruelty. coupled with that of his
adopted mother. has forced her to
live apart from him since August 3
last. She characterizes her mother
.n-law as irascible, domineering. quar-
relsome and intolerant towards her
at all times. Even at her marriage.
Mrs. Brooks states that her mother
in-law voiced her objection to the
nuptials on the ground that she
thought her son could have married
a younger woman, she being a few
years her husbands senior.
Her husband upholds his mother,
she AYERS. Once when she had rented
nat for herself and husband to
live In apart from her mother-in-
law, she states that her husband
baked at the last moment with the
excuse that he had been given an
auto by his mother and she could 60
ana live where she liked. She moved
In the apartment, she AYERS, and he
abandoned her.
Justice Stafford issued a rule re-
curing Brooks to show cause why
he should not support his wife.

BATS SCOURGE TO INSECTS Why Most Species of the Swiftly Fly
 ing Creatures Are Beneficial.

Bats are often regarded with as much horror as snakes. The wheeling and rapid flight of the little creatures in the twilight, their dusky forms, shroud-like wings and fiery eyes, seem ing to league them with the supernat- ural; but they are generally not only harmless, but useful. They are a scourge to insects of every kind, from the mosquito upward. Tbe big bats of the Indian peninsula are considered table luxuries by the natives.
 A bat measuring two feet from tip to tip must be a formidable looking crea- ture to encounter. This is said to be the size of the fruit-eating bats of the Amazon, to which the name of "vam- pire" is often given; but even these are harmless. There is, however, a smaller species in South America which does suck the blood of many an- imals, including human beings.
 The mischief does not consist in the quantity of blood abstracted by the bat itself, but in the far greater flow from the triangular puncture after the with drawal of the aggressor. It has been objected by obstinate unbeievers that no one has ever seen the wound in- fiicted; but, considering that the bat bites only in darkness, the proof upon which the skeptics insist is not easily obtainable.
 The curious feature of the bats bite, say South Americans, is that 1t is hard ly ever felt even when the person at tackled is awake.

BIG FL0CKS ONLY SOLUTION
Why Idea of "A Sheep for Every Fam. fly" Would Be of Little Value.

The idea of "a sheep for every fam fly" is good in intent and purposes. Both manufacturers of woolen goods and meat distributors would like to see larger supply of raw material. Sheep raising, however, is not like gardening, says the Albany Journal. To be successful it must be conduct- ed in the open and on a large scale. Breeding itself is large and com plicated matter. Also, the nature of the wool-growing animal is unsuited to combined commercialism and do- mesticity. The family who had a sheep running around the dooryard would form an attachment for the animal that would cut the latter on the foot ing of a family pet, that could be separated from its valuable wool only if the sheep's comfort were consid- cred.
 B AS for the use of a family sheep for meat, such would be rare. "Led like a lamb to the slaughter" has more than a literary meaning. One who could see a sturdy steer felIed by a hammer blow or on uncouth and squealing pig slashed in the throat. would turn from the sight of lamb, without fight, held helpless while slow ly bled to death. Most people like lamb or mutton, fhd most people re Quire woolen clothing. but for both food and warmth the sheep-raising in- dustry will depend upon commercia- lized flocks.

- ~@~~~ STOCK MARKET
 ~~~~~~~~(

New York. Dec, 17.-Opening.-A further disposition to await devolop- ments in Washington was indicated at the dull opening of today's stock mar ket. Railroads were heavy, Norfolk & Western losing two points and Union Pacific a point, but industrials, especially equipments, oils and mo- tors, hardened. Prices improved gen erally before the end of the first half hour, steels, Reading and Canadian Pacific leading the advance.
 Noon: Limitations that federal ac- ton on the railroad situation may be deferred until after the holidays gain ed currency during the morning and caused a general setback. Active in- dustrials and railroads reacted l to 8 points and war shares and specialties 2 to points. Fresh selling of utili- ties also ensued, American Telephone, Western Union and Consolidated Gas declining to 31s points, while Con- solidated Gas and Electric of Balti- more dropped 11h.

MONITORS HAVE "coME BACK"
Why cheese-Box Craft Have Proved
 Useful in Present War.

Before the outbreak of the present war monitors were considered almost obsolets. It had been many years since American naval appropriations had included items for the construc- tion of monitors. Now 1t seems like ly that monitor building will be re- sumed, for in the European fighting these cheese-box craft have proved highly useful.
 A monitor can carry big gun and at the same time draw little water. It can come near shore in such shall low water that submarines cannot fol- low. Monitor fleets have repeatedly shelled Belgian towns held by the Ger mans, and have done much damage, In the Dardanelles campaign monitors were advantageously used after the enormous battleships had proved use less. Now it is reported that British monitors have been in the Adrintic. aiding the Italians in their Trieste cam. paign.
 Besides the advantage of shallow draft the monitors present a small tar get for enemy marksmen. The Brit ish have many at their disposal, and are building more.

w orld of Finance

in interest rates and consequent read justment Liberty bonds displayed growing activity and some slight weakness, owing to expectations of another issue early in 1918 on possi- ply a 4 1-2 per cent basis. Foreign government issues also weakened un- der German successes and fear of pro- longation of the war.
 It is fair question whether the Street" is not unduly pessimistic. Feeling is very apt to run to extremes and the present wave in some respects is going beyond reason, so far as present conditions can be seen. Those who have surrendered position and future for sake of country and gone to the front are not pessimistic. Why should those left behind, who have made the smallest sacrifice, be the darkest pessinltsts? The United States has actually suffered less than any of the belligerents It is still prosperous and busy supplying food and munitions to it's Allies for which it is generously paid. We are con- fident of victory, and better times also when peace comes. Why then this excessive gloom in the financial district about temporary influences and setbacks?

TORCHES FOR THE TRENCHES
How Uncle sam's Soldiers In France
 Will Be Kept Warm.

School children in many cities are making trench torches to be used by the Sammies across the sea.
 The torches are made from news papers, which are cut in column widths. Eight of these columns are required for one torch. The paper is rolled, one strip at a time, until the article is complete. Then it is boiled four min utes in paraffin.
 The torches are to be used to warm the hands of t-le men in the trenches and to boil their coffee. They first or iginated' with the Italian soldiers in the Alps. One and half million have been used by the Italians. They are only slightly more than two inches high, but burn long time.
