Helpful Hints for Mothers

[ old tough leaves, reddish in color Push those aside and down under meath are some tender, ned little grown leaves and Patty's head bent over, protected by those big, tough, last years leaves.
 Take up one or two hepatica plants carefully, also some of the wood soil, and when you get home plant them in fish bowl or some other glass vessel, with the wood soil about them. Put the bowl in sunny window, with perhaps a piece of glass over the top, and as the days go on you will see little Patty's head prick up, you will see the new leaves start, you will see one of the loveliest blossoms little plant over head, and 10 and behold, there is Patty, your country boy!
 Now, if you are city child it would not be at all easy for you to add Patty to your garden, would it? So some night ask Father for ten cents and with your ten cents shut up tightly in your hand, go to a flower shop and ask for holly. Hol- ly is a fern with bright leaves that look like Christmas holly leaves It is the best little fern for indoors, and will last better than almost any other fern.
 Be sure you keep Holly very clean and nice. You must wash his face, washing both the front and back of the leaves, just as mother washes your face and behind your ears Keep the soil in which Holly is planted moist but not wet and every once in a while, and If there is a gentle spring rain, put little Holly boy outdoors and let the rain wash his face.
 So Patty end Holly are our two little spring boys who belong now in the same "AllThe-Y Year-Round Garden" family with little Marie Gold, our French orphan.
 To the mother These are two very satisfactory little plants for small boys and girls to work with. Hepatica is interesting because the children can watch the plant open, up as the spring days advance, just as it would open in the woods; and while holly fern is not as interest ing as bepatica, still it is fern one can use at home or plant in the window-box at school, and feel sure it is going to last while.

This spring two new children are born into our All-The-Y YearRound Garden Family. One little boys be- longs in the country, and the other little boy belongs in the city. If you look at the names of these two children you will know right straight off that Patty is the coun try boy and Holly, with his fancy name, must be a city lad
 If you are country boy or girl, go out some fine spring day to sunny little hillsidej or slope in the woods, and there you will find little Patty. Patty's whole name is hep atica.

POOL STOCKS
HELD ATTENTION
General Motors Does More Ex-
citing Stunts--Trading Was
Restrained Throughout
MONEY SUPPLY TIGHT

New York. Nov. 25,-The New York
Evening Suns closing financial review
today says:
The motor. tire and steel shares were
most actively bought in today's stock
market, and price gazing among the
motors in particular were large. At
366, the top level reached by General
Motors at midday. that stock was sell
ing Sc points above the low figure to
which it droppcd in the market break of
nearly a fortnight ago and some forty
points below the maximum quotation
of the wear attained November =.
Advances in the steel group ranged
from fraction to 3 points. Baldwin
Locomotive was bid up , points early
but failed to hold. Pressed Steel Car,
Kelly Springfield Tire StrOmberg Car
bureter. United States Rubber, Amcri-
can Wooden. Worthington Pump. Ma
/ tional Aniinc and Chemical, American
Tobacco, Endicott johnson and Inter
national Paper were strong spots ..
The coppcrs were again heavy within
n narrow range. With the exception of
Texas 4 Pacific, the railroad list was
under some pressure. and trading In
that department was negligible.
There was fairly good outside buying
in general in the industrial group, just
enough in most cases to keep the shorts
on the alert for covering opportunities.
Trading was restrained throughout.
The Thanksgiving recess coming on
Thursday. the new session of Congress
next week, which will be called to crap
plc with the peace treaty situation and
the railroad legislation program, not to
mention the coal strike deadlock, tended
to hold business in check.
1t was pretty generally agreed that.
were it not for the large short interest
built up in the interim since the violent
break of two weeks ago, there could
scarcely be the basis for buoyancy in
the more highly speculative issues which
| has enabled the latter to spread them
! selves from time to time,
| There was little perturbation over the
coal matter because the street was con-
fident that if the miners and operators
could not reach compromise the gov
ernment was prepared to take hand.
Indeed It was understood that the ques-
| ton would come up before the cabinet
at its meeting today and the various
offers submitted for consideration.

oil and mining shares. Against the
frank advice of brokers many people of
limited means have sacrificed good sea-
soned dividend paying issues in order to
take tliers in the speculative cats and
dogs.
An illustration was furnished today
by the experience of one Of most con-
servative houses on the street. A lady
client a few months ago having some
money for investment called upon the
broker in question for advice. She was
furnished list of good sound securities
from which to make choice.
Having not heard from her and hay
ing n personal interest in her case,
the broker asked her to call at the office.
Much to his great surprise. when he
questioned her as to the disposal of the
funds, she informed him that on the
advice of relation she had bought some
General Motors and had cleaned up
over $4,000 in the transaction.
The making of this quick profit was
all right, the broker said, but the
trouble was it left behind an appetite
which would make the lady vulnerable
to the snares of the numerous market
wolfs who are leaving no stones un-
turned to have such unsuspecting people
separate themselves from their good
money in buying worthless securities.
There are undoubtedly multitude
who have had the same experience as
this lady. 1t means days of great re-
gret. loss of income and loss of prin-

LITTLE MORE ANIMATION
IN THE LOCAL TRADING
Renewed Buying Movement in american Sores-Market Thin
for General Asphalt Preferred

Trading in the local stocks was con
siderably more animated today. The
volume OF business was also not only
appreciably larger but the operations
were also much better distributed. The
results were mixed, reflection, in q
measure, increasing professionalism of
the dealings.
The market had n number of strong
snots, some soft and some very thin.
The latter condition applied principally
to recent exploited specialties. General
Asphalt preferred furnishing a convinc
ing Illustration in its S13 drop to 191
on oherlng of only 200 shares. The
common at the same time yielded.
United Gas Improvement and Phila
delphta Rapid Transit were the more
noticeable soft spots. The first named ran
into a fresh wave of liquidation with
nearly 1900 shares being thrown on the
market during the session, most of which
was readily absorbed at "a. Philadel
phia Rapid Transit for some occult rea
son fell ~ to 26%.
American Stores and Lake Superio,
Corporation furnished the strong spots
A much wider inquiry developed for the
latter, which elevated the stock to %
or 20 cents above yesterdays final sale
In American Stores there was a con
tlnuation of the same significant buying
observed in the preceding sessions
which also raised the price 75 cents tC
i2A, or within a small fraction of the
recent high record price. The action
of the stock specifically would seen
to confirm the recent reports of the di
rectors placing in on the dividend pay
ing list.
A number of inactive shares made
their appearance, with transactions nj
the same price as the previous sales.
These included New Jersey Traction
which was taken at AZ Philadelphia
and Western at g. Westmoreland Goa
at "a and Philadelphia Traction at GO.
Fractional shading of Tonopah Bel
mont and Tonopah Mining seemed little
short of paradoxical in face of the rec
ord price, attained for bar silver and
the world wide hungry demand for the
white metal.
According to the board reports there
was continued small investment buying
of Pennsylvania Railroad. On the 9th =

apart from n limited number of pool

the list continued to drift idly within

1t was one Of the dullcst days Wall

how complete speculative activity has

In conservative circles the opinion is
generally voiced easier money conditions
can only be temporary. as there is likely
to be another period of stringent money

when the end of the year disbursements

Much the same as in the preceding

Copper shares were the only note
worthy exceptions to the further ad-
vance of prices at the opening. The
usual motor, oil. steel. equipment, food
and shipping issues were in moderate
demand at gains OF | to = points. Mis-
ccllnncous stocks and uurlassihcd spc-
cialtics also moved with the popular
induStrials but rails gave no sign of
shaking off their recent apathy. Early
gains were materially extended within
the first half-hour under lead of Gen
crnl Motors and Pierce Arrow.
The market driftrd idly after the
first inquiry but dullnCss had no effect
upon the advance in the Sprcialtics

For a long while Santos coffees have

and, while highly desired, Santos are
still bringing full prices. There are in
dications that Santos holders desire
