MARKET LETTER
BY r. Allyn Lewis

There was more profit taking today.
butthe market was quiet on recesSions
and stocks seemed TO be well absorbed.
Another upturn in prices appears to be
due and good support in specialties
continues.
The railroad bill has been reported
to the house. 1t will take very little
to start a speculation in this group.
The whole market wants to go up and
with the slightest buying or any good
news we could have a very big ad-
vance. The street is bare OF stocks
Because steel does not lead, that is
no reason that the general market will
not go up. In fact, it is going up.
Ohio Gas. Allis Chalmers. Distillers.
Linseed and many other stocks which
have been quiet are coming TO life and
they are all going up on merit In
spite Of the objection of many promi-
nent men TO the war finance corpora
ton, it is almost sure to be put thrugh
and this means a big initiation.
Good quarters very bullish on oil
stocks. Notice the 1917 reports of oil
companies generally showing big gains
over 1916 and with the use Of kerosene.
etc, this year should be even greater
One hundred and seventy-five and
higher talked for Texas Oil
The rise IN Pacific Mail of ; points
to 2S2s was accompanied by rumors OF
important developments in this com
pany. OF all the listed stocks con-
trolled by the American International
| Corporation, Pacific Mail is the only
one that has not been exploited in .
market sense.
Several months ago the company de-
clared a 30 per cent cash dividend,
| and the event passed almost unnoticed
| in the stock market.
Beet Sugar declared dividend of 8
per cent on common for year, PAYABLE
in four quarterly installments of two
per cent. Matter of extra dividends
| Will be considered later Also declared
regular quarterly dividend ~ on pre-
ferred dates April LIST and March 10th.
The Old Dominion output for Janu-
airy was 100000 pounds compared
| with 3,36S,000 in December.
Inspiration production 5000. 600
pounds vs.. 100000 in December and
$500, 600 pounds in November.
Green Cananea January production
$4,000 pounds vs.. 1,G5O,OOO in De-
cember.
American Smelling & Refining de-
clared regulal quarterly dividend of
11a per cent on common and ~ on
preferred.

Chance For Drill
For Selected Men

Through the selective service
boards there is to be provided some
system for instruction of men to be
called into the service. 1t has de-
veolped that those who have some
little military training before they
go to camp are in much better shape
than those who go out as raw
rockies without any conception of
military drill
Major H. M. Slime announces that
the Harrisburg Reserves, through
their officers and other competent
members .of the battalion, will ar
range for two or three drills each
week of all who expect to be drawn
into the Army. Quite a number of
men who have gone out have found
that those who know something of
military duties are promptly ad-
vanced and in not a few cases have
received. commissions months earlier
than those who were compelled to
start at the very bottom of the
Ladder.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the heir
brittle, and is very harmful. Just
plain mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
Is pure and entirely greaseless), is
much better than the most expea-
sive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing. as this can't
possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out cas-
lily and removes every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and 1t leaves 1t fine and
silky, bright. fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get mulslfied cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. It Is
very cheap, and few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the FAM
lily for months.

THE PLOTTERS
A New Serial of East and West
BY virginia Terhuae Van. de water

suppose l ought to be sorry. But,
as I've remarked before, blood is
thicker than water, so we cousins
hang together"
Something impelled Elizabeth to
speak a part of the inner rebellion
caused by the words.
We are not such close cousins,
after ALL" she muttered.
Clifford had jumped out of the car
and paused, his hand on the door,
waiting for Elizabeth to enter.
Lets see," he suggested, Just
what the relationship is. Mother!"
as Mrs. Chaplin appeared in the
doorway what degree cousins are
Lizzie and ?"
Mrs. Chaplin gasped. "You-you
mean," she stammered-"what rela-
ton Cousin John Moore's children
are to you?"
Her son eyed her sharply. "I
asked what kin Lizzie and 1 are"
he repeated.
well. John Moore is my first
cousin" the matron said, slowly.
80 his children are my first cousins
once removed, and that makes them
your second cousins, don't it?"
THERE" Clifford exclaimed tri-
umphantly to the girl. You know
now what the relation between us
is. You are my second cousin,
aren't you? Acknowledge it, my
dear"
The girl tried to laugh. I'VE are
going to be late to the show If we
don't start" she parried. That is
the only thing 1 acknowledge at the
present moment"
She Shakes Hands
She took her seat, and her COM
panion stepped into the car. John
Butler turned toward the gate to be-
gin his solitary walk.
Some impulse moved Elizabeth
Wade to lean forward and hold out
her hand to Butler.
Good night" she said.
He sprang toward her and seized
her hand.
Good night" he returned.
"I meant every word of what |
told you Just now" she murmured
hastily. Really did"
Thank you!" he exclaimed.
The car started, and he stepped
aside to allow it to pass. Elizabeth
looked back as they reached the
gate.
Goodnight again, Mr.. Butler" !"
she called clearly.
She wished that she were going
walking with him instead of driv-
ing with Clifford Chaplin. She wished
it even more when her companion
turned to her with a laugh.
"Old sober chops doesn't like me"
he affirmed. "But I have a right to
carry you off from under his aristo-
cratic nose. You know. honey, I
have a claim upon you, for you are
my cousin"
He laughed in way that might
mean much or nothing, bending
down to peer into her face, shaded
by her hau-brim.
She wondered If he suspected the
truth. If so, and he were to betray
it to Butler, what would become of
Douglas scheme?
But of course Clifford Chaplin did
not know the facts. How could he?

Cripples' War Gardens
Beginning to Produce

Paris.-Acres and acres of gardens
located near the American base hos
pitals are now beginning to bring
forth their harvests of vegetables.
All were cultivated by American
wounded, convalescents. who attend
ed to the growing produce.
Not alone has the venture been
one of great economy for the hos
pitfalls. The work of cultivation has
been done upon the prescriptions of
the medical surgeons so that a dou-
BILE purpose is accomplished. The
garden work provides relaxation for
the men after their strenuous times
on the battlefront and their painful
anxiety in the hospital wards. The
diversion acts as a recreative
agency in bringing back the men to
normal mental and physical state.
The gardens are worked entirely
by convalescents. Not single dol
lar has been spent for hired labor.
The Army has undertaken a compre-
hensive plan of Army provisioning
along these lines. The American Red
Cross also is cooperating by the es-
tablishment of smaller plots in the
centers where convalescents are
sent.

Advice to the LoveIorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
THE TRUTH!


DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
1 have been engaged to a young
man for some time. Long ago another
young man whom had only thought
of as a friend asked me to marry
him. 1 refused, and he went on as
though nothing had happened. He
has enlisted in the Army and is now
in active service. When he first went
away he wrote me. and I. thinking it
was right that 1 should answer,
wrote him. We are corresponding
now, and every letter 1 get from him
he speaks of waiting for him and
of the time when he comes back and
we can be married.
1 think it would have been we'll had
you told him in your very first letter
that you were engaged; since you did
not, surely you owe it to this soldier
to be honest with him. Not honest in
a brutal, ugly, cruel way-but honest
with a fine simplicity that will do
much to make him respect you, and
that won't give him a feeling of
heartbreak and friendlessness over in
France.
