Financial Review
 By ERIC koBBE ~ Of Blythe -Witter Go.
Financial Operations


 Some large operations in the monev market which transpire on this date and their resultant effect on the money market are subjects of decided inter- est. These transactions include the payment of semi annual interest on the 6,500,000,000 fourth Liberty loan; the retirement of one large treasury note issue and payment on a new one: and the liquidation of the S50o, COG. GOO Anglo French loan
 The general consensus of opinion is tht-t these operations will largely off, SC one another, and will not cause a further tightening of money rates. ?.
 A $170,000,000 issue of treasury certi- cates natures on this date, and this amount will be paid into the banks by the treasury and will thus be made available for new operations Although the treasury looks with approval on a new issue of $100, 1000 and will re- ceive tenders on same, and these two transactions will generally offset one another, these funds will demain with the banks for some few days before being called in.
 Gold has already been shipped in for the redemption of a large part of the $500.000,000 Anglo French loan and funds for the balance of the issue have been obtained by France trough it's latest issue of 25 year 8 per cent gold bonds. Undoubtedly this money will be available for re-investment imnle- diately. As result there should be no noticeable tightening of money for 1 any extensive relaxation until buyers 1 appera for the large stocks of com modities and manufactured goods now on hand in warehouses from coast to l coast

 NEW YORK-Fall models involves all sorts of new ideas in embroidery. Much of the embroidery is done di- rectly on the frock by hand as. for in- stance, in this beautiful crepe de chine frock.
 The figures done is worsted and in varying colors are almost crude in their conception-a child might have drawn them-yet therein is their fas- cination.
 But, of course. not all the embroid- cries are hand done. On the contrary, machine embroideries will be more than ever used. especially in pattern sets, unmade robes comprising em- broidered and plain material such as were in vogue several years ago.

THE DEMOCRATIC PAYROLL.

party means business why has +
