loses the friendship of a modest
man? l don't believe you ever met
a modest, intelligent girl or you

her. The trouble with most of you
men is that you don't know where to
go and how to find the right COM
pany. am sure by going to cabaret,

WHAT IS THE REAL GOOD?-
After reading The Day Book cOntin-
uOusly since it has been published
and noting the various viewpoints
taken on different topics, I should
like to be informed on the following:
What is the real good? The law
court says order. The school teach
ers says knowledge. The wise man
says truth. Pleasure insists the fool
Love says the maiden. Freedom says
the dreamer. Home says the sage.
Fame says the soldier, etc.
Our constitution says that all men
are created free and equal Let us
see if this holds good. One man has
the chin of a politician and the hair
Of an art student. Another has not
a single hair to cover his bald spot
and three chins. One man has too
many wives and is thrown into
prison for bigamy; another who has
not even a girl to call his own is
thrown into prison for breach of
promise. One woman has half a
dozen marriage licenses to decorate
her drawingroOm; another has not
even one to hang in her kitchen.
One man has a perfect appetite
and nothing to satisfy it; while his
brother has two chefs and a poor di-
gestive system. One woman has a
fo1Irn ike q yr7aSbt11b and q OrOfIn
like a rhubarb pie, and yet her hus-
band is perfectly devoted; while her
sister has the shape of a Venus and
yet finds it hard to keep a husband
loyal. One woman may speak seven
languages and be a bore; while an
other talks only chit-chat and baby

conducting same on an honorable
basis. I am making a good living,
and, moreover, I am through with
millionaire crooked employers.
If Helen Herald had had my eX-
perience she would be turning her
pen to writing sensational stories in
stead Of fairy tales. If there were
such well-paying institutions, thou
sands Of half-starved girls would
seek them. l hope Helen will come
out of her dream.-Marjorie Louise

talk and is irresistible. A soda wa
ter clerk looks like a genius, while a
burglar is often mistaken for a bank
er.
After studying the question from
many angles, it seems mat courtesy,
a smile and a pleasing manner can
do more than anything else in the
world. 1t Costs nothing and causes
endless streams Of money to follow in
its wake. Recently a dOOrman at
the La Sale hotel received $500 in
return for a. smile from a lady who
happened by.
The modest girl certainly started
something Of which she never dream
ed. By reading recent issues, COM
ments and general trend of pubic
opinion makes me believe it would
be a good idea to promote a social
culture club where young people with
the spark of ambition can meet with
out large expense and still be assuT-
ed Of not being in a palace of hell, as
our dance halls has been termed.
Cultivate sagaCity, foresight and
study human nature, in a pleasing,
agreeable way. That is the proper
way to become leaders of men. If
you can handle yourself you can
handle others. knowledge cannot be
power until it is developed into an
art l will furnish the hall. Let us
see how many of our young citizens
are .intersted.-ManIy Bloomgren,

WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK, March 24.-Ihe lore most feature of a week reminiscent in it's activity of the boom market of last autumn and early winter. were the presidents proclamation calling con- gress in extra session and the supreme courts decision upholding the Adamson ! law. More important as direct bullish factors were the favorable annual re- port of the United States Steel corpor- ation and the tardy but sweeping rise in railway shares
 Wall Streets calm in the face of significant military and naval prepar- ations was accepted by leading banking interests as evidence of the country E ! ability and determination to confront grave eventualities. Absence of mar l<et liquidation, stability of money rates, and the apparent success of the new French loan gave emphasis to these extraordinary conditions.
 Trading was broad, even though dealings ran mainly to industrials and 1 the more speculative shares commonly described as war issues. Advances in
 some of the latter doubtless were re- tarded, however, by a well-defined be- lief that contracts to be awarded bS
 the home government will allow of nc more than moderate profits.

FINANCES AND MARKETS
[Republican A. p. Leased wireI-

NEW YORK, March 24>-~CWall Street, )-Rails were the absorbing features of today's brief but very ac- tive session, that division for the most part holding to it's belated advance of the preceding day, presumably on the prospects of higher freight and pas senger rates
 Buying converged around coalers, Reading, Norfolk and Western, Le- high Valley, Baltimore and Ohio and Erie advancing one to two points. Gains in other rails, notably St Paul, Northern Pacific, Southern Pacific, New York Central Chicago and Northwestern, Colorado and Southern, and the preferred shares of the Mis- souri Pacific, Wabash, and southern roads attained similar proportions.
 United States Steel was variable, Bethlehem Steel, Shippers and Motors were moderately reactionary.
 COppers were in steady demand. Baldwin Locomotive was strongest of the equipments. Total sales, 630,000 shares.
 Actual reserves in own vaults and federal reserve banks of local banking institutions decreased about s2J,000,- coo during the week, excess reserves decreasing by little more than s21,- coo 900, just about offsetting the pre- ViOus weeks gain.
 Bonds were generally higher on an expansion of dealings. Total sales, par value, $23S5000. United States cou- pon 4's rose one-half per cent on call during the week and coupon 5s declined One-half per cent.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO. March 24.-Big losses in acreage as result of winter killing, did much to hoist the value of wheat today. The market, however, reacted because of profit taking, and in the end was unsettled, at the same as yes terday's finish to 2A up, with May at SI90A to s1.91 and July $1.63 to S163$s Corn gained F to l F; oats closed Is off to 1s advance and provisions un- changed to lie higher.
 Reports from eleven leading states indicated that abandonment of winter wheat territory aggregated 1885, 900 acres, the heaviest total ever known except one. This showing, with fresh flood of damage reports from west of the Missouri river, led to unusually free buying.
 Aggressive buying made corn soar to new high record prices of the sea- son. RumOrs of an Argentine embargo and the continued scarcity of domestic rural offerings were prominent factors
 Oats rose with corn and wheat. A faVorlte theory Was that oats were rel atively cheaper than other ceI calls Provisions derived strength from the higher quotations on hogs and grain Lard and ribs touched the highest pric- es yet this season. Close: Wheat: May, $1.90A; July, $1.63 Corn: May, $1.16; July, s1.14A
