Moreover, judging from reports re-
ceived by the federal reserve board,
the treasury officials have about
wiped the capitalist investor off their
states as possible contributors to the
federal revenues under the excess
profits act.
1t is self-evident that there will be
n oeXcess profits earned by the rail
roads this year. and It is equally
true that the shipping corporations
are not going to contribute very
heavl.y to the Golfers of the federal
treasury.

SCOT as a bisinfectant.

It has been found that SCOT acts as
a disinfectant and is more active moist
than dry Water seems TO dissolve the
disinfecting agents in the SCOT, max
ing them more active. Carbon float
ing in the air seldom, if ever, carries
bacteria unless it has lodged on the
ground and is again blown into the
air.
Now SCOT acts as a very effective
blanket, protecting the bacteria and
giving them a chance to grow. Dis
eases of the nose and throat are not
appreciably more prevalent in smoky
cities, but they are more severe and
harder to cure. This is probably due
as much to the cracking OF the mu-
Gus membrane by the change from
the dry atmosphere in the houses TO
the moist air outside and subsequent
irritation by dust and smoke.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS IRREGULAR.

New York, June Attention of fl
nancial as well as speculative interests
today was divided more or less evenly
between Chicago and Washington, with
consequent neglect and uncertainty in
the stock market.
Advices from Chicago regarding the
republican convention were so consusing
as to leave Wall Street in greater doubt
than before, while traders evinced little
inclination to buy or sell in view of i'm
pending decisions by the United States
supreme court.
AS a result, stocks were tossed to and
fro within moderate limits for the most
part, although shippings and several of
the less prominent specialtias moved
mainly to higher levels with favorite
steels and equipments.
1t was not until the final hour word
came of the action of the supreme court
unfolding the 18th amendment and the
Volstead act This was the signal for a
moderate selling movement which effaced
most gains, the market closing with a
heavy tone.
United States Industrial Alcohol and
United States Food Products, which
came more directly within the scope of
the courts rulings, closed at losses of
1904 points, respectively, while re-
preventative industrials and rails re-
corded net declines of fractions to 8 IL
points. Sales amounted to 425,000
shares.
Another factor in the late reversal was
the sudden rise of call money to 10 pei
cent, after having been loaned freely
during the greater part of the session al
six per cent. Further rigid tendencies
in time money caused little surprise be
cause of the unsatisfactory credit condi
tons disclosed by the local federal re-
serve bank.
Anglo-French SIS were again the out
standing features of an irregular bono
market, selling at SO 5-16, a new higf
| for the current movement. Liberty is
sues and the general domestic list tend
| ed lower. Total sales, par value aggre
gated S1e.775, 900.

Artificial Leg 300 3. c.

The Oldest artificial leg in existence
is that in the museum of the Royal
College of Surgeons of England. 1t
was found in a tomb at Capua, and is
of course, of Roman origin.
This artificial member accurately
represents the form of the human leg.
It is made with pieces of thin bronze,
fastened by bronzed nails to a wooden
core. Two iron bars, having holes at
their free ends, are attached to the
upper extremity of the bronze, a quad
rilateral piece of iron found near the
position of the foot is thought to have
given strength to it. There is no trace
of the foot, and the wooden core had
nearly crumbled away. The skeleton
had it's waist surrounded by belt of
sheet bronze edged with small rivets,
probably used to fasten leather lin
ing Three painted vases lay at the
feet of the skeleton. The vases belong
to a. rather advanced period in the de-
cline of art, about 300 B. c.
