What Arc Marine stocks WORTH

The most important thing regarding
the Marine transaction is the value OF
the preferred and common stocks under
the plan. and Wall Street has had a
number OF attractive figures from which
to make a choice IN past months. Tho
most recent one, based on an analytical
study Of the Marine company's financial
position, was made by a member OF
prominent Stock Exchange house. who
placed the liquidating value OF the senior
stock at Its par value plus the 81 per

Financial Position Sound,

Those who know the facts about Cult
States Steel are OF the opinion that the
smaller profits and temporary disruption
OF Its business have been already dis
counted in market way and one or two
investment houses recently have been the
principal buyers. Their reason for con-
sidering Gulf States Steel as a peace is
sue II that its business Is so diversified
that in normal times It Is not dependent
on any single line to keep its plants run
ming efficiently. What effect this years
profits will have on the 10 per cent an
nual dividend rate has not been mem
toned officially. but the company is in n
sound financial position, Its last report

or its equivalent AS late as March 81
OF this year It had 100000 cash and
another million certificates OF indebted
ness. with CURRENT liabilities OF only

will be any necessity for changing the
present dividend rate, according 10 in

VANITY OF vAN1TIEs

The wise man says in the Bible, Van
ity of vanities," saith the preacher
"All is vanity" If there is a human
being on the earth at this time who can
echo the words of the preacher, it is
the former Car Nicholas, who is sup
posed to be prisoner in a gloomy Rus
sian fortress, or maybe a deceased ex-
ruler, the victim of mob law. l recall
the time of his coronation, when the
rulers of all the known world sent rep
resentatives to the costly gathering, and
Nicholas was the ruler whose domin-
ions exceeded all others and whose
wealth was fabulous, and his income
largest known to the people of all ma
tions. Nicholas is the son of Dowager
Empress Dagmar, the sister of Dowager
Queen Alexandra of England. These
ladies were at the summit of royal am
bition Dowager's son emperor of Rus
STA had married the own first cousin
of the emperor of Germany, and the
own first cousin of King Edward os
England, and a granddaughter of Queen
Victoria, queen of England and empress
of India.
They had the cream of the whole bust
ness in their hands, when Car Nicholas
married Alex the granddaughter of old
Queen Victoria and cousin to King Ed
ward and the kaiser. See how the
wheel of fortune turned round and over
when Russia dethroned the car, and
the kaiser was in deadly combat with
the king of England, his near blood rel
ative!
Nothing in fiction surpasses it!
The German emperor may or may not
replace his cousin on the throne in Rus
sia as soon as the peace treaty with
that country is signed and sealed. He
cannot afford to discount or discredit
the so-called divine right to the throne
of kings and emperOrs, but it is plainly
evident that he will subdue Nicholas to
painful humiliation Off his life is spared
by the BolshevikiD Vanity of vanities!

We live so near other folks that /
had to get rid of my hens to a very

year to hatch every egg 1 set under
them, which was siXty-one 'biddies' out
of sixty-one eggs. While other hens
left one and two, sometimes three eggs
unmatched -..
I have twenty young chickens now, all
feathered out except three and I put
(you might say dresses on them to
keep them from freezing as the weather
is so cold
We live on a farm and 1 have two
small children to care for and help
my husband in the field so I just make
all 1 can on chickens, eggs and butter.
Last. year 1 sold forty-five pounds of
butter beside butter for our table use,
and this year 1 am trying to do even
better.
We are facing great war and will
need everything that we can raise. Last
night l left the supper table to go and
gete my twenty chicks in a box and
put them under the cook table by the
stove so they would not die in frozen
coop. This morning my husband came
in telling of his loss Of six fine young
pigs, just froze for want of a warm bed
and shelter.
