The era of better feeling ushered
in by the announcement that the
government. would take over control
of the country's railways continued
during the past, week to impart a
tone of underlying firmness to the
security markets. Prices of leading
stocks advanced to the highest levels
reached since the late decline and
improvement was also registered in
the bond market. Gains were not
entirely maintained owing to heavy
profit-taking sales which caused
substantial reactions, but on the
whole the performance of the securi-
ties markets was conducive to
optimism. Ranking in almost equal
Importance with the taking over of
the railroads, from the Wall Street
point Of view, was the move of the
Department Of Justice toward post
poning argument of the antitrust
suits pending against the United
States Steel Corporation, 1nterna-
rional Harvester, American Can and
other corporations. This was ac-
cepted as another indication that
Washington has come to a realiza-
tlon of the urgent need Of industrial
and financial cooperation Of the
business interests of the country if
the United States is to put it's full
strength into the war. President
Wilson made it clear in his message
to Congress on Friday in connection
with his Recommendation for spe-
cial railroad legislation that it is
of the utmost consequence to the
government itself as we'll as to in
dustry and finance that all great
financial operations should be stabil-
lied and co0rdinated with the finan-
cial operations of the government;
that no fundamental industrial
values should anywhere be unneces-
sarily impaired. The war news
played only a minor part in the
weeks movement Of security prices.
The trend Of bond prices last
week was mainly upward, in re-
sponse to the more hopeful feeling
discernible in investment circles. At
the close Of the week the market
quotations for the general run of
bonds ranged from 8 to 10 points
above the low record levels touched
when the 1917 decline reached its
climax in December. Perhaps the
most important development in the
investment market was the sale to
a syndicate Of $4O,000,0OO Of one
year notes of the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company,
which are being offered to investors
on a 7 per cent income basis. The
fact that corporation Of this
standing should have to pay such a
high figure for fresh funds is illus
trative of the condition now exist
ing in the capital market. 1t is
not to be expected that much new
private financing will be undertaken
when such stiff rates for capital
prevail. Private borrowers are
competing with the huge war de-
mands Of the government and must
pay the penalty. Few Of them care
to do so.

Juice of Lemons!
How to Make Skin
White and Beautiful!

At the cost of small jar of ordi-
nary cold cream one can prepare a
full quarter pint of the most wonder
full lemon skin softener and complex
ion beautifier. by squeezing the juice
of two fresh lemons into a bottle con-
tanning three ounces Of orchard white.
Care should be taken to strain the
juice through fine cloth so no lemon
pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep
fresh for months. Every woman knows
that lemon juice is used to bleach and
remove such blemishes as freckles, sal
lowness and tan, and is the ideal skin
softener, smootheper and beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces OF
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra
grant lemon lotion and massage 1t
daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands. 1t should naturally help to
whiten, soften, freshen and bring out
the roses and beauty of any skin. It
is truly marvellous to smoother rough,
red hands.-Adv.
