The low of lixir.n.

To enjoy life we must have good
health. No one can reasonably hope to
get much real pleasure out Of life when
his bowels are clogged a good share OF
the time and the poisons that should
be expelled are absorbed into the sys-
tenn, producing headache and indiges-
ton. A few doses Of Chamberlain's
Tablets will move the bowels, strength
en- the digestion and give you chance
to realize the real joy Of living. Try it.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
MARKET WAS SLUGGISH.
Reactions in Prices Were Most Pro-
 nounced in the Last Hour.

New York, Jan. 11.-Reactions of from one to almost four points in those issues which comprise the bulk of the daily dealings accomplished the slug gish course of today's stock market.
 The setback was most pronounced in the last hour, when steels, equipments and rails registered lowest levels. Alp sence of speculative or public interest probably accounted as much as any thing for the reversal, bears availing themselves of this negative condition to engage in new commitments.
 In part, pressure against industrials was prompted by reports that various corporations were contemplating new financing, the unexpected $12, 900, ,000 note issue of the American Can com pany being cited as case in point.
 Peace rumors also were a contrib eign exchange markets nor the trend of international bonds showed any definite alteration, aside from a break in Russian issues.
 U. s. Steel recorded net loss of 2 1-S points, it's decline being coinci- dent with rumors affecting the stability of the existing dividend.
 Other industrials, the more promi- nent war shares and related issues, sagged gradually after some early manifestations of steadiness of strength. Shippings were affected in like degree and coppers were heaviest after unofficial reports of the re- : affirmation of the 23 1-2 cent rate by the war board. Sales amounted tc 4S0,O00 shares.
 The strength of French governpent 5 1-2s was the only striking feature of the uncertain bond market. Liberty
 1-2s were quoted at 9s.72 to 98.60 first As at 9S.04 to 97.9O and second 4. at 96.64 to 96.42. Total sales, pal
 value, aggregated $5,13O,000.

I made this deal was that I had made the first mistake in my career; with the Athletics, and for the first tnie since I have located here the Phila- delphia fans have something on me. won't admit I made mistake in letting. these men go, but I did make Q mistake when I said last season that I was through selling players. Of course I did not know what the war would bring about but I was com pe1led to break my word, and that is, my one regret.
 Had the government not wrecked my team by taking my players from me, no club in the league would have had Bush, Schang and Strunk, but with my team broken up these men were worth nothing to me and I de- cided to get rid of them even though it placed me in a bad light with the baseball fans. Of course. am not complaining about my boys going into the service. The country needs them more than I do, and more than base ball does, and I'm willing to start all over again, but there was no use l holding onto Bush, Schang and Strunl' | expecting to get results from them considered far inferior to them They would have been dissatisfied, and the only way to avoid this trouble was to | let them go to another club.'
 | While Manager Mack declined to
 tell what he had. received for the
 men sold to Boston, it was gleanet from his remarks that the purchase price did not reach s60,000 and tha
 lTrazee was simply obtaining lot O publicity by boosting the figure. Tht
 report that Frazee had been offered
 $50,O00 for Poe Bush by the Chicago
 club and that the Cleveland club hat been willing to pay $25,O00 for "Rul let Joe" last year was also received
 with a smile by Mack.
 I There is something besides none. to be considered in running a bal club" concluded Mack, "and I hay experienced it. Of course, I do no expect the baseball public to worr,
 over my troubles, but it does not -un
 derstand. I may have been manag
 CT of the Athletics, but the fact that
 was forced to break my word with tn
 public is the only reason I have t regret the sale of Bush. Schang an
 Str1nk. I have only a few player
 left, but I'm working hard every da
 to get together a team for next sea
 son. and although it may seem i'm
 possible, I believe I will be ready t meet the conditions. Had my tear been left intact I would have had good club next year, one that thi
 city would have been proud of, bu all I have left is a remnant, and r do the best I can with what I have.
