ALL MEASURES CAME
 FROM HUMAN BODY
(Kansas City Starr


 Doubtless measures of all kinds were originally taken from the human body. An inch is roughly the length of the top joint of the thumb. A span is a quarter of pace. and a pace is halt ones height. The span and the pacs were probably the foundation of all measurements. and We still speak quite commonly of so many paces distant.
 The ell is little used today as meas ure, and mainly survives in the old saying, Give him an inch and he'll take an ell" That is, give him little liberty and there is no telling to what length he will go, for the English ell is yard and quarter, the Scottish ell a little over a yard, and the Flemish ell only three quarters of a yard. The word ell means arm, and thus el- bow means the joint or bend of the arm. The ell measure was taken from the arm of Henry l., and if that was a yard and a quarter it was of very un- usual length The capacity of the hu- man body was also put to the use of measurement; thus we have the ex- pression, "A hop, ster and jump" "A 1 stones throw and the old saying I Within a bow shot away"
 | In rural Germany they speak Of places being so many hours distant meaning, of course, by walking: and ir the rural parts of Schleswig Holsteir | they say that a place is a pipe, or two pipes, or three pipes off, according to l the number of pines evoked while travelling to the desired destination.

NEW YORK, June 27.-Speculative stocks, particularly secondary indus trials, equipments, oils and a wide variety of unclassified issues, aug mented recent advances in today's broader trading, but standard shares were irregular, when not actually heavy.
 The demand for'rails was again re- stricted to Reading and a few rela- lively unimportant transportations, while transcontinentals were under further pressure.
 United States steel reacted from it's new maximum for the current move ment of 110$s, closing at a loss of a substantial fraction. Sales 650,00O shares.
 The general bond market was easier but Liberty As and A. were dis tinctly strong on purchases attributed to corporations seeking investment of surplus profits. Total sales, par value s9,275,000.

higher, with July s1.461s to s1.465s and August s1.49 to s1.49h. Oats gained 9sto s. In provisions the outcome ranged from 10 cents decline to rise of 15 cents.
 Anxiety prevailed over the smallness of stocks of corn available in Chicago for delivery on July contracts. espec- ially as reduction of the movement from rural sources appeared probable owing to the greater necessity for cars for newly harvested wheat. There, however, sentiment became more or less unsettled because of good rains in Iowa.
 Unconfirmed talk of export business gave an upward slant to the oats market
 Strength of hogs and grain made provisions average higher.
