1t is not always in business that a
woman is forced to give up her work on
account of i'll health. It's quite as often
the woman who does her own work at

you are nervous and blue, the one great
help for such ailments is Lydia E. Pink

BULL DOMINATION
AFFECTS MARKET
Strength of French Francs
Aided by Prospect of
New Loan.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S-Today's
stock market was largely in the
hands of the professional traders
that have been working on the bull
side lately, and the course of prices
was along the lines of least resist
ance. Specialties were the favorites,
and they moved upward in a session
that was marked by somewhat more
active trading than has been wit
messed recently.
Attention was largely centered on
General Asphalt, California Petrol
cum, WOrthington Pump, United
Fruit, which advanced sharply and
reacted later, and Mexical Petrol
cum. There was also a good de-
mand for Corn Products.
Copper shares did extremely well
as group, although there was no
particular news on which to base
today's buying. This caused a sub
stantial rise in Anaconda, Utah and
Cerro de Pasco.
1t would not be fair to take the
view that the present strength is
the result of purely speculative op-
erations, for the bond market con-
tinues to display strength and tone.
The Liberty issues made new high
levels for the year, and there was a
good demand for Industrial bonds as
well as the fractions, which have
been strengthened by the hope or
legislative assistance.
Steel shares were steady in spite
of the fact that the Iron Age stated
that in all lines consumers expected
lower prices and that there were
signs of lessened activity by the
Steel Corporation. ..,
In the foreign exchange markets,
sterling was slightly higher, but the
feature. was furnished by the
strength of francs, This is attrfb=,
uted to prospects of ANEW French
loan here. Money was 6'per cent on
renewals but closed at the high
hgure of 7.

Cotton Goods Output
Jumps; Prices Rise
Especial to Business Section Of The wash
ington Hersld,)

NEW YORK. Jan. 19. Cotton
goods orders received at Fall River
last week greatly exceeded any
weekly business in three-qusrters
of a year. and II is believed that
THE mills in New England and the
South will be taxed to their ut
most to fill orders during the next
three months. 1t is learned that
the Fall River sales total 100000
pieces in five days, or close to max
imum production.
Sales of cotton goods continue 20
increase. In a number Of instances
higher prices were paid than. ruled
last week. More concerns with
drew merchandise from the market
at prices named after the holidays.
Some sellers named new prices.
while others hold their merchandise
at value.
Amory, Browne and Company yes
terdsy advanced prices for ginghams
11S cents a yard for April-May
delivery; Lawrence and Company
withdrew shirtings for sale at ex-
isting quotations. and Taylor, Clspp

CONGRESS WARNED
BY F. M. CROSBY
Abolition of Futures Will
Ruin Farmers by De-
stroying Credit.

F. N. Crosby, of Minneapolis, head
of the largest four milling company
in the world. has warned Congress
enactment of drastic legislation in
tended to abolish futures trading in
the nations grain exchanges would
be blow to millers as well as to
producers.
American millers buy 100000. 900
bushels Of grain annually" he told
the House Agriculture Committee
The -four demands are periodical.
The milers must sell -four when they
can't buy wheat. Without the in
surance which they obtain in the
futures market their positions be-
come most hazardous"
Mr.. Crosby was one OF a number
of bankers, exporters and merchants
from California to Maryland who
vigorously protested against the
proposed legislation. A food or leI-
egrams came from business inter
ests in the agricultural States urg-
ing delay, at least until the dangers
involved can be fully discussed.
Proponents of these various bills
have talked long and loud of specu-
lation in the grain exchanges" said
Eugene Blackford, of the Baltimore
Chamber of Commerce. "Paralyze
the great grain markets by killing
the hedging privileges and you have
pure speculation on a giant scale.
The holder of the grain is unpro-
tected and in event OF a big swing
Is ruined.
"On the other hand the producer
receives less for his commodity, for
the buyer must take a greater mar
gin of profit because of losses which
he will inevitably sustain from time
to time. What a fearfully depress-
ing market would follow the dump
ing of huge quantities after harvest
time IL there were no futures mar
ket."
The committee obviously was at
sea over the mass Of information
contained in the many different bills
and submitted in testimony by pro-
ponents. Even the authors of the
bills fail to agree. And still you
come to us and expected US to solve
your problems in a few days" OBJ
served a committee member.

WHEAT CLOSES
TO 2 IL LOWER
Weakness Also Continues in
Corn Market-0ats
Down.

CHICAGO. Jan. ls.-LocsI short
covering brought about a little re-
coyery in wheat just before the
close today but the nnish was p.
to 2lz lower. The trade was OF
moderate volume during the day.
The opening was lower but there
was z disposition TO 60 slow on the
selling side The buying power was
poor but on the break short cover
ings to secure profits checked the
decline and caused moderate
rally. There is a disposition to be-
little the recent export business.
In fact. reports have been so con-
ficting that it is difficult TO give
an accurate account Of the business
done
Weakness continued to be a fea-
ture in the corn market The close
was q to l cent lower. Early SELL
ing was quite general and prices
dropped about cent under the
previous close, there being little de-
mand at the time. Later some OF
the prominent houses bought corn
and this encouraged some OF the
local traders to make a stand on the
bull side. The market failed TO re-
spond. however. and subsequently
those buyers sold out in disgust.
Price trend in oats was a refiec-
tion Of that in corn and wheat, the
close being 4 to i cent lower
Trade was Of a broader volume and
featured by the absorption Of the
May offerings by a prominent COM
mission house, presumably in the
way of covering short commitments
Other concerns and locals were
noted on the selling side and later
there was buying against indemni-
ties
Rye declined L to 2L cents and
barley was y cent higher
General interest in provisions was
very small, with prices easier in
sympathy with grains.

Loss of From so to

NEW YORK, Jan. 19. Further
weakness developed in cotton to-
day under stop-1oss liquidation and
selling for Wall Street, Liverpool,
Southern and wire house account
generally. Pressure was particularly
heavy against the later old-crop
deliveries. The market at Liverpool
suffered fresh losses.
Trading in the pit was fairly
active during the first half hour,
but thereafter it was small. Initial
quotations were 20 to 81 points
lower, with offerings liberal. No
tices for the delivery Of 1900 bales
on January contract were issued
early. but they were stopped rather
promptly, and about half the early
decline was recovered before the
end of the first hour.
After holding steady, selling en-
larged toward 2 o'clock, and the
undertone throughout the last hour
ruled weaker.
Last quotations showed a net loss
Of so to 65 points.
Spot was lower, at 1925 for mid
ding; there were no sales.
Spot at New Orleans was steady,
with middllng 25 points lower, at
l5c; the sales were 4,1SS bales.
Receipts of cotton in bales at some
OF the leading points today were:

as to prices and, when these seemed
reasonable they bought.
This went on for a day or two
and then the exhibitors woke up.

And he got busy.
He advertised. So did others. II
you looked through last Sundays
leading papers in New York, Phila-
delphia and other Eastern cities
you saw pages and pages of auto
mobile advertising. The total was
not so big as the year before but
nevertheless, il was big.
What's the answer Simply this:
There has been more pessimism
than was warranted. Conditions
are improving. Cheer up.
The English still have govern
mental control of sugar, and the
retail price throughout the United
Kingdom is seventeen cents z
pound. Here it is eight, or there.
abouts, according TO the retailer you
happen to patronize.
A Scot named Croft has plagued
the British government by offerinE
TO furnish 100000 tons OF sugar
(. o. b., New York, at six cents 3
pound IL it will give pledge of sell
ing it to the people at a price ON!
slightly above cost.
The sugar controller replies b!
declaring Croft is unknown as
sugar man or a person Of financia
prominence and. as the transaction
would entail a loss OF millions o
pounds sterling to Croft, the gov
/ ernment cannot pay attention to tn,
offer.
The suggestion. OF course. is tina
Croft is only an irresponsible per
son put up by others to bait tn
government in its present unpleas
ant situation.
However that may be. the state
ment that the transaction wouI,
entail a loss OF millions OF pound
is open to question Raw sugar &
selling al four and one-hRIf cents
Z. o. b. Cuba, and refined sugra a
about seven and three-quarter cent
in the New York market.
Whether Croft meant raw or re
hned does not appear from tn
sugar controllers statement.
At any rate. the Scot has made {
plain that sugar is cheap in Amer
lea and dear in Great Britain, an,
IT probably is going to remain dear
The government either got stuck
with an overload OF sugar at higl
prices or is making the British peo
pie pay an abnormal price as a sor
of indirect tax
Whatever the facts, the LIoy
George government is in an un
I pleasant position.
The Washington herald., 1921-01-20

Lloyd George certainly is a dar-
ing person. IL anything was neces-
sary to prove 1t he has furnished
the evidence by raising the teie-
phone rates in, Great Britain.
Eyer have a bout with British
telephone? II vow haven't you can
not appreciate how blessed you are
with the phone you have here in
the U. S. A.
ANY one in London who, without
a long wait or violent struggle,
gets the party with whom he wishes
to converse over a telephone wire
brags about il for days.
&c New York or Philadelphia or
Chicago had British telephone sery-
ice the people would go forth in
their fury and pull up the tele-
phone conduits by the roots.
Men who pay taxes cheerfully are
rare.
1t is notorious that thousands of
corporations and firms increased
their advertising appropriations
greatly in the last few years be-
cause profits spent in that way
were not subject to Federal tax. In
effect. the government paid a big
slice of the advertising bill.
Possibly some of these concerns
figured that what they paid on this
score was an investment. At any
rate, they argued that way whether
they believed IL or not. Probably
the majority, even II doubtful OF
the virtue of the larger eXpendi-
ture, salved their consciences with
the hope that some of it would
haalr . hat =
ter to spend it that way than let
the government have It.
Many of the advertisers got one
of the surprises OF their business
lives. Their advertising pulled
pulled big. 1t brought orders they
never had dreamt OF getting. II
| demonstrated TO them that they
| had not known the possibilities in
| their particular fields OF activity
! and that they did not appreciate the
market they might command.
Now they are planning advertis
ing campaigns on the broader basi,
as sound business. They've learned
that it pays. And some of them are
not going to wait until the presen
/ clouds roll by. They're going tC
help push them away.
Before the automobile show in
New York the manufacturers anc
| distriuters of cars decided to d.
little advertising What was tn,

money to spend, and IL anybody
