You'll know one from another

Store-news is home news. Some
thing advertised today finds itself

One Of today's ads may change
some one of your buying plans-to
your profit
In your buying for the home IL
is quite as profitable to KNOW
VALUES AND OPPORTUNITIES
as it is. in other things. to KNOW
instead of "blundering through"
The bargain hunter has
evolved into the intelligent buyer
for the home-the woman who en-
ercises as much ability in expend-
ing money as it required in earn
ing it.
The woman vino studies the ads
KNOWS that she is paying the
smallest possible price for her pur-
chase. She doesn't just HOPE so,
The merchant who can protect
you on both quality and price in a
time when both are apt to fiuctuate
unaccountably is rendering you
real service.
Buy at your home city stores as
a matter Of self protection-and of
those home-city merchants WHO
ADVERTISE!
The dollar you spend in your
home city store stays in your
home city and SERVES. Tie dol
lar you send away ceases to serve
anybody in the city where you
make your home.
The merchant who is using
larger space in which to give to
you the news Of his store deserves
your interested attention. He has
"a reason"-and YOUR INTER
ESTS are invested in that reason.

The position of buyer for the

The woman who studies the ads
would find nothing but amusement

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
Features of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks

New York. March 12.-Rails were the
dominent features of today's cratic
market the activity and strength of
that group afforGing a striking con-
trast to their inertia of recent weeks.
Substantial advances were made by
a variety of transportation shares, but
ccalers showed to greatest advantage

priSing the western and southwestern

Leading industrials, including United
States Steel, were irregular to heavy,
falling to lowest in the last hour Steel
tuctuated between 113 "a and 10 SIS,
closing at 10 "a, net loss of Is
points. Bethlehem Steel new stock
registered a gross decline of IA at
H. ga and coppers receded l to almost
points. American Smelling evidently
discounted the publication of the COM
pany's favorable annual report losing
5-S points. Shippings also denoted
uncertainty from the more acute phases
of the international situation, losing 1
to points, with l to for various
munitions. equipments, and the limited
group of utilities, Ohio Gas yielding 5
points at 100.
Rails forfeited part of their gains
in the general reversal which accom-
panied the final dealings. Total sales
amounted to $4,000 sahres.
Enormous gold imports over the weekend
impaired steadiness to sterling and francs.
but Tires fell close to their lowest point, re-
covering, however, on cables stating that Italy
purposes to restrict imports, thus offecting .
partial readjustment of this situation. A
lower trend for internationals contributed to
the uncertain tone Of the bond market on
more diversified operations. Total sales par
value aggregated ss,s4oooo United States
bonds were unchanged on call.
