Higher Discount Rates.

On october "A the year OF partial
payments on fourth liberty bonds will
expire. During this period banks
agreed to carry customers on partial
that they might accommodate the
buying public, the Federal Reserve
Board has allowed it's rediscount
rates to remain at the very low fig
ure of per cent for fifteen days and
~ for ninety days renewal on fed
eral securities.
1t has been a period of great pros
perity for banks. Funds here are
employed to the limit at per cent
and even desirable collateral loans
cannot secure fractional cuts from
the rate, while much western and
eastern surplus money has been
Is per cent on sharp call.
Hundreds of millions of cheap
credit have thus been extended by
the federal reserve system through
the necessity of being square with
bankers in the matter Of carrying
bonds.
Once the Federal Reserve Board
advances the discount rate the whole
situation will change. 1t will mark
the beginning Of defiation Of inflated
credit. 1t is claimed that it will bring
about. also, readjustment Of the
price situation.
The Federal Reserve Board in its
October bulletin. lays emphasis on the
liquidation OF war loans and appears
to be of the opinion that no genuine
improvement in the credit and price
situations can be brought about until
these war loans are removed from
banks into proper investment chan.

Merger Holds Some Hope.

Looking through merger glasses,
perhaps some recompense is probable
to the common shareholders, but the
days of the per cent, or even 5 per
cent dividends, are gone until the H.
c. l. comes back to ante-bellum days.
A merger is the hope OF the street
railroads and the city. Public utili-
ty bond brokers are taking the stand
that the public utilities are coming
back. Washington investors hope
that statement Is true. Brokers claim
that the shifting OF population all
over the country to the cities is
bringing the receipts of street car
companies up to materially higher
averages.

Grecian Marriage. Gesture.

There are two noted statues of the
Venus Genetrix in which the Grecian
marrlage-gesture is illustrated-one a
Roman copy OF Greek original held
to represent celebrated type by AL
Camones, in the Louvre, Paris. The
goddess Is clad In very light lonian
tunic, and with raised right arm lifts
her hImation from behind toward her
head, forming the Greek gesture sym
bolic of marriage. The left hand eX.
tends the apple.
The other, an antique marble statue,
in the Vatican museum, is held to be
an excellent copy of the bronze cult
statue by Arccsilaus which stood in
the temple of Venus of the Forum
Julium. The figure is fully draped in
very thin, CIinging drapery; she eX-
tends the apple with her left hand,
and with the right raises her mantle
over the shoulder toward the head
the symbolcal marriage-gesture.

Blufflng Among the Reptiles.

The ancient practice Of bluffing Is
not limited to the human species. Va
rious animals pretend to be worse

The hog-nosed snake Is a perfectly
harmless little fellow, with no capa-
cities In the way of poison, and yet
this reptile. which Is rather pretty, Is
given such sinister names as flat-head-
ed adder and sand viper. and is usual
Iy killed on sight. This is because 1t
has the habit Of fiattening It's head and
putting out its neck and kissing vio-
lently, which is for no other purpose
than to frighten Off intruders. 1t is
plain bluff, to give the impression
that the reptile has poison fangs.
This counterfeit Is usually taken at
It's true value, and affords the hog
nosed snake considerable protection.

who destroy the innocent reptile on

FINE OLD ENGLISH DWELLING
stokesay Castle, Dating From 1901,
Has Many Unusual Attractions
for the Tourist.

Sokcsay castle, which dates back to
1921. Is probably one of the finest Of
MI England's ot dwellings. Although
called a castle this ancient dwelling Is
really n fortified manor. and all Of its
ancient characteristics have been
maintained through the last 800 years.
The great hall. which Is over 80
feet long and 30 feet wide, Is easily
the most striking feature Of the old
manor house. The windows of the
castle are all large. and the hall was
thus made much more pleasant place
to live in than the majority of houses
built in England Mt that time.
During the thirteenth century the
builders first began to make English
dwelling houses pleasant to live in,
instead of mere places Of shelter or
defense. Windows of the kings houses
were ordered to be glazed, outside
doors to have protecting porches. fire.
places to be built, and numerous other
household additions made. In some
places the windows were filled with
painted glass and the walls decorated
with rare paintings.

to how the custom started. The story,
the more likely to be the true one, is
that In ancient times the Japanese
attached "maru" to the name of any
thing precious or highly priced, as

to ships name about 1000 years
ago, when the Empress lingo sent an

THRILL IN SWO0P OF HAWK
Overcome Admiration for
Bird Of Prey.

Although the hawk undoubtedly has
a right to his dinner, there is frequent
ly little sympathy shown for the bird
Of prey, but much for the victim that
furnishes forth the feast.
1t is thrilling sight to see fish,
hawk, sailing a hundred feet or more
above a rapidly flowing stream, sud.
denly bring his wings nearly together
above his back and fall like a plummet
to the water below. The action is rapid.
the wings are in motion by the time
the water is reached, and out Of the
spray emerges the hawk with fine
fish In his talons, to be borne away to
the accompaniment of flashing drops
thrown from the struggling fish.
One day on suburban lawn mother
oriole had coaxed youngster out Of
the pendent nest, hung on the extreme
end of branch where no enemy could
find entrance. Just as the little one
was making the acquaintance Of all
outdoors. sharp-eyed hawk saw the
newcomer, and in an instant the Oriole
was taking his first and last flight in
the possession of the hawk, while the
mother flew alongside pouring out her
heart in rage and pain. Thus. they
passed OUT of sight.
The strength of the hawks foot is
remarkable. Some years ago hunter
shot hen hawk of large size, breaking
a wing. Down came the hawk and the
hunter advanced to secure the chicken
thief. The wounded bird made no at
tempt to run, but faced his foe. When
few feet only separated them he
jumped and attempted to fasten his
talOns in the hunters foot. A pair of
heavy hunting boots were nearly cut
through as the sharp claws slipped OFF
the instep. Had the hawk got fair
hold the foot would have been pierced.

DAMAGE CROPS
IN MONMOUTH
Lima Bean Worm is Being
Fought By Farmers

By Special Correspondent.
MATAWAN, August 13-For the
past several weeks the farmers and
truck gardeners in the vicinity of
fighting h lima bean worm, which
is devouring the vines n blossoms
of not only the lima beans, but the va
rious other beans hat are grown in
this county. The worm is a thin
green one, similar to the well known
measuring worm and in a very short
time is to destroy many dollars
worth of beans.
But this is not all that the farmer
had to contend with, for a report has
been sent out from the experimental
station Thai an outbreak of the army
worm is likely to occur. Two reports
to injury to crops have already been
received by the station, one from the
vicinity of Camden and the other from
h northern part of the state.
Thus far the army worm has con-
fined it's activities to an attack on
bluegrass and corn. The army worm
appears almost black, but as a matter
of fact they are indistinctly striped
and range in color from pale to an al
most dead black. They are about one
inch long when they are migrating,
and in order to secure protection
prompt action is necessary.
In order to keep the worm from
migrating into cultivated crops, pillow
or dig a ditch across the line of their
march, having the side of the ditch
nearest the cultivated crops as per-
pendicular and smooth as possible. 1t
is well to dig holes about six inches
deep and ten inches apart in the bot
tom of the ditch, for in their endeavor
to get out of the ditch, the worm
falls into the holes where they a be
killed by covering them with kerosene
or crushed by a tamping bar or stick.

.'The New Moon" Norma Tai
madge's latest Select Picture, in which
she is presented by Joseph M.

of Russian home life as it exists
today.
1t is not a war picture and has no
war scenes in it. but is the story of a
Russian Princess, Marie Pavlovna,
who is attacked in her castle by an
anarchist and forced to flee for safety.
In her Aurried escape she is separated
from her fiance, Michail Koloyar. To
insure her safety the Princess dis
guises herself as a peasant giri and
goes to a neighboring province where
she takes refuge in a small store.
As a possible means of finding a clue
to the whereabouts of his lost ~fiancee,
Michail becomes a member of the
Anarchist Club under the rule yof Ka-
meneff.
Meanwhile, into the peace of the
village where the Princess is finding
all the happiness possible without
Michail, comes the decree ssued in the
province to register for the purpose
of naturalization. While some of
the women are duped into believing
that it will be for their W good to
register, the Princess knows the true
meaning of the edict and refuses to
! register. She incites the other women
: to follow her example and promises to
smuggle them over the border to the
next province.
