| There have also been thousands of cases
| of la grip.
We have been unable to explain sat
| isfaetorily to the laity just why such
an epidemic has been made possible.
To my mind the cause is evident We
feel quite sure that there is discov-
| cradle cause for every case of sickness
| that the physicians have been called
upon to treat.
| Large amount Of it has been due to
faulty housing conditions. Some homes
| do not get thorough ventilation from
] November to March. Fresh air is in
dispensable. Why should we strive so
diligently to keep it out of our bed
| rooms' If you have not been aecus-
toned to sleeping with your windows
open 365 nights in the year, try it. The
old superstition that night air is dan
gerous, has had its bottom kicked out
of it for number of years. Night air
is no more dangerous than day air.
The same clements constitute both of
them.
Sleeping in unventilated rooms lowers
one g vitality. You arise next morning
feeling like one who has been on a
drunk. Why9 Because you have been
inhaling over and again the exhaled air
from the lungs and pores of the skin.
There are some people who say they
cannot sleep without a light. This is
also bad practice The light helps to
consume what oxygen there is in the
room and gives out carbon monoxide, a
poisonous gas.
One of the worst practices we find
among hundreds of people, especially
men folks, is the habit of sleeping in
their underwear. If you ask why they
do this, some will give one reason and
some another. Here are some of the
reasons that we have received: Cd 81
am too tired to change at night (2)
another says, 81 will catch cold by
changing;' 60 another says, s'When
I get up next morning my room is cold
and get chilled while dressing. Not
one Of these excuses possess grain of
logic.
We are at loss to assign any reason
for such an unhygienic habit. We
would not like to say that it was case
of laziness.
Dear reader, have you stopped to
think what large amount of poisonous
material is stored up in your under
clothes during the days At night you
should strip yourself of every garment
worn during the day and put on clean
night gown or night shirt as the case

CHICAGO, Feb. 2.-Lessening of Bearish confidence regarding the out look for peace did a great deal today to strengthen the corn market. The outcome was a firm close, 1s%14 to AG9sc net higher, with March s127 and May $1.247s 61.25. Oats gained F to 7sc and provisions r to 37 cents
 Corn had an upward tendency that especially reflected disappointment of traders who have looked for swift sen sational developments from German economic and political troubles. The fact, too, that receipts here instead of being enlarged were even smaller than has been the rule of late counted also against sellers. On the other hand, weather conditions seemed the best in a long while, and there was general hope that a broadening of the crop movement, although deferred, would soon become a substantial factor. Weekend adjustment of trades, how ever kept the market on the upgrade to the end.
 Profit taking by shorts was mainly responsible for the advance of oats. Provisions rose with hogs and because of the bullish showing of warehouse stocks in Chicago.
 Corn: March S1.27; May s1247s.

jeans and British, is the most powerful and the most commonly used explosive of today. High explosive shells are loaded with it. It is the force which makes the torpedo effective. or which endangers submarines when. in depth bombs, it is exploded in their vicinity. It was trinitrotoluene which caused the recent disaster in Halifax.
 And this substance, holding such great potential powers of destruction in its seemingly innocent pale yellow or white crystals, is product of our harmless domestic coal tar. Or rather. it is a grandson, as it were, of coal tar. Toluene, more commonly known as methyl benZine, is the base of trim itrotoluene, and toluene is derived through a process of distillation from coal tar.
 Toluene contains much hydrogen, and in the process of manufacturing trinitrotoluene, these hydrogen atoms are replaced by nitro groups. This process of nitrosubstitution permits

FINANCES AND MARKETS

NEW YORK. Feb 2.-Representa- tive stocks were not especially respon sve today to the prospects of a sus- pension of fuelness Monday after next week. but various other issues, espe- cially shippings, oils, motors, feathers and papers, advanced 1 to almost points, mainly at the expense of the bears.
 Rails moved within a narrow area and industrials, notably steels and cop pers, were disposed to react, though making up lost ground before the close. United States Steel was under steady pressure most of the session, but fin ished at a nominal advance. Half dozen stocks, United States Steel Marine preferred, Distillers' Securities Industrial Alcohol, Reading and Central Leather, contributed more than fifty per cent to the days total of 355, 900 shares.
 Baltimore & Ohio's adverse state ment of December earnings was offset by the annual report of the Goodrich company, which showed a material in crease in net profits. Trade reports stressed the unfavorabe weather con- ditions and serious freight congestion.
 The chief feature of the weekly bank statement was a further actual eXpan- sion of loans by over s111 .000. 900, mak- Ing an aggregate of $19O,000,OO0 for the last fortnight Excess reserves de- creased almost s35, ,OOO, 900, reducing the actual total to little more than 62,oo0,0 900.

many variations in the arrangement of the nitro groups, and hence chem ists are able to produce twelve differ ent trinitrotoluenes, each varying from the others in boiling point, melt ing point, solubility, specific sI Iavity, and sensitiveness to detonation.
 Trinitrotoluene, in its natural state, is in the form of pale yellow or white crystals. but in loading shells or bombs. these crystals are melted, and in a. fluid state the explosive is poured into it's case, where it is sealed under pres sure. In the form most commonly used its sensitiveness to detonation is so slight that it is necessary to use a de- tonator or mercusy illuminate. Because of this lack of sensitiveness, 1t is one of tthe safest explosives to handle, but at the same time its explosive force, oc- casioned by the rapid expansion of a small quantity of the solid into a great volume of gas, is greater than that of any of its cousins. such as the dyna- mites and nitroglycerin.

FINANCIAL REVfEW

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-The attention sf the financial community was fre- quently diverted during the week from The vexations and complexities of the domestic situation to the significant changes, suggested by advices concern ing conditions in central Europe. High finanNal authorities concurred in the belief that the peace movement is mak- ing formidable progress in Germany md Austria Hungary.
 President Wilson's message to the western farmers was regarded as the most important market factor since the decision of the government to take over the railroads.
 Railroad earnings for December were extremely unfavorable and January re- turns are likely to reveal larger net osses.
 The United States Steel statement Tor the 1917 final period indicated a steady decline of production, and it is believed the current periods will re- fleet in greater measure existing eco- homie disturbances. Maintenance of the extra common dividend was one of the stimulating market features.
 Much of the activity of the last week eentered around speculative shares, notably motors and specialities more remotely identified with the war group
