HIGH TEA.-''What is the distinc- ton between a five o'clock tea and high tea?'"
 (Answer.) The five o'clock tea is usually a very simple affair as to refreshments, consisting of tea, very thin sandwiches, or merely bread and butter, and cake and candy if desired.
 But high tea calls for quite an elaborate menu of several courses of hearty food. The fashion of serving high tea in the afternoon is disap- bearing in this country, for obvious reasons, among people who are ac- customed to serving dinner in the evening as the heartiest meal of the day.

 Dear Doctor:
 Since I received your letter giving me directions for treatment for tha high blood pressure which I have. I have lived up to your instructions religfous1y by going on a milk and water diet for one week preparing what was to follow. Then went on complete fast except water for three days. This was broken the 12th inst. Since that time I have been on the diet according to your instructions.
 had my blood pressure taken this A NJ and find it down to 15S. am pleased to say that this is the low est I have ever known 1t to be, as never, knew anything about blood pressure until IS months ago when mine was taken and it was 25O. Since that time 1t has been running between TO and 215, averaging about 200.
 I would like to ask you how much you expect my pressure will be when it is normal. after having 1t the length of time I have? Since I had the slight numbness under my eye and left thumb and little finger and one next to it last March when my pressure was up to 250-the specialist advised me that this numbness would disap- pear in short while. It did some what but reappears.
 I would like to inquire of you at this time if there is anything you could suggest that would overcome this, as it is very annoying.
 am feeling very good and have a good appetite and sleep well and am taking your exercises, according to in- StructiOns-
 After this week I expect to com mence eating fruit and raw vegeta- bIes according to your instructions and no doubt I will be much stronger and feel better and more like work H. G

Financial Nel15--Stock Market Prices
PRICE SMASHING
ATTEMPT FAILS
Professionals Attempt To
Force Stocks Down
Without Result.
By BRoADAN WALL.

New York, July 2S.-Another pro-
fessional attempt to break the stock
market failed today. Early in the
day an attack was made on United
States Steel and IT yielded more than
point from the high price recorded
soon after the opening. The tobacco
shares were then assaulted. and To-
oacco Products was sold persistently
throughout the session 1t ended the
day with a net loss, but the other
tobacco shares held their own In
the late trading an attempt was made
10 cover the Steel sold in the morn
ing. but 1t had to be taken back at
a loss. Throughout the list there
were important advances in special
ties, particularly in all the coal
shares. New York Dock. United Drug.
Central Foundry. Deere preferred
and Owen Bottle. The independent
steel shares were steady, but Cruel
Ole yielded couple OF points at the
close Of trading.
The underlying strength Of the
market was due to expectation Of an
advance in general steel prices fol-
lowing the action Of small independ-
ents. The Pittsburgh Steel Com
pany advanced wire prices from 50
to SO ton yesterday. making the
third advance Of the kind by these
small companies. Most Of the steel
companies say that their output now
Is limited only by the labor they
can secure
The quarterly statement of the
Steel Corporation is due tomorrow
and will be very poor. Stocks. how
ever. are being bought on the out
look and that is good.
1t was evident that the best buy
ing on the tobacco list was in United
Retail Stores. That stock was firm
throughout the session in spite OF
the weakness Of products.
Interest in oil stocks was diverted
from the exchange to the outside
market for She'll Transport and
trading AllOtments of the under
writing in that company were only
about one-twelfth on the average.
