NEW YORK srocK MARKEr.

Wall ST., New York. July 27.-STOCKS-
High grade rails and industrials were well
supported in today's stock market on lower
money rates, but speculative issues sus-
tanned severe losses.
Leaders forfeited part of their gains later,
altho call money eased to u per cent. OBJ
scure specialties, including American Car
and Pressed Steel Car developed further
weakness. The close was irregular. Sales
approximated 475,00O shares.
Acute weakness in United Drug shares
which opened at n further loss of 81
points and soon extended its decline to IA
points was the striking feature of the ear
ly dealings in todayis stock market. Among
the more popular issues advances FREEDOM
mated. United States Steel gained a sub
stantial fraction and Baldwin Locomotive,
American Wooden and United Retail Stores
were firm. Bethlehem Steel, Studebaker
and Central Leather were inclined to ease.
Foreign exchange was little altered, save
for sharp break in the Italian rate.
United Drug increased its loss to S%
points before supporting orders brought
about q feeble rally. Pressure was di-
rected against Central Leather, common
and preferred; Scar Roebuck, General
Electric, United Fruit, Famous Players,
American Sugar and American Tobacco, in
which losses ranged from 1 to PA points.
Popular Steels and Equipments were firm.
High grade oils held their ground but some
of the Acheaper domestic issues eased. Rails
were apathetic at trifling gains and losses.
Call money opened at per cent, the lowest
initial rate Of the week.

Household Hints

With boiled fish serve cucumber
salad and butter sauce of some kind
with creamed potatoes.
Water in which potatoes, rice or
macaroni have been cooked is as good
as milk for .making gravies.
To prevent silver or gold cloth slip
pers from furnishing, wrap in black
tissue paper when putting them away.
Combs will last longer if before
used they are washed with soap and
water, then rubbed with olive oil.
Uniformly brown French toast can
be made in the oven instead of frying,
and a larger quantity can be made at
once
Never grease the pan for very
rich fruit cake. Line it with ungreased
paper. The cake will be less likely to
burn.
Woolen blankets should not be used
for ironing board covers. They retain
