SHARP GAIN MADE
IN LIBERTY BONDS

NEW YORK. January 1s Especially.
The chief incidents in the bond
market today were a further rise
in liberties, more selling of the bonds
of foreign governments, which are
expected to be out soon with fresh
loans, and the generally buoyant tone
in the corporation list.
Liberty bonds made new highs for
the year under the same sort of buy
ing by institutions and by private in
dividuals that has been back of their
market for the last three weeks.
French IS rallied a bit in the later
trading, but at their low of the morn
ing around s75s, they were off more
than two points from Saturday. These
bonds would certainly have not gone
to such a discount had there been any
idea that the new French offering
would be put out on better terms Tor
the borrowers. On the contrary. the
decline in the present issue indicated
something of fear that the French
government might have to pay even
more money this time than it did be-
fore. Belgian TVS s were a bit steadier.
but the 6s of 1925, were off another
half point to 91%. Swiss IS were un-
changed.
Action in fractions.
Traction bonds did not, as a rule
get back to yesterdays high, but still
they retained the greater part of
what they had gained. Although favor
able action on the fare question at
the present legislative session is re-
garded as doubtful, the traction mar
ket was hoping today for a further
temporary stimulus to be given by
the special message on traction af
fairs which the new Governor of
New York is to send to the legisla-
ture within the next few days.
Chile Copper bonds were again in de-
mand with a further advance to IS, at
which figure they were up over IL points
from last months low. The other fea
ture in the industrial section was the
Westinghouse Electric Is. which got up
above IS.
Among the rails the feature was the
greater activity and strength in invest
ment bonds of the second rank. such as
Missouri Pacific general As, Missouri.
Kansas and Texas As and Southern rail-
way As. Rock Island refunding As rose
a point to 69A. New York Central de-
benture IS made new high at 921a.
Baltimore and Ohio gold As struck 20
for the first time. Atchison general As
held their full advance at the 79 level.

h You Need 4 Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex.
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been.
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
preparation / have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for IN
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large q
SALE"
: According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.

(TO BE CONTINUED
INGALLS, TRIBUTE TO GRASS
Beautiful Word Painting of Kansas
Statesman That Is Recognized
as a Classic.

Lying in the sunshine among the
buttercups and dandelions of May,
scarcely higher in intelligence than the
minute tenants of that mimic wilder
ness, our earliest recollections are of
grass; and when the fitful fever is
ended and the foolish wrangle of the
market and forum is closed, grass
heals over the scar which our descent
into the bosom of the earth has made,
and the carpet of the infant becomes
the blanket of the dead. Grass is the
forgiveness of Nature-her constant
benediction. Fields trampled with
battle, saturated with blood, torn with
the ruts of cannon, grow green again
with grass, and carnage is forgotten.
Streets abandoned by traffic become
grass-grown like rural lanes and are
obliterated. Forests decay, harvests
perish, flowers vanish, but grass is inn
mortal. Beleaguered by the sulleh
hosts of winter, it withdraws into the
impregnable fortress of it's subter-
ranean vitality and energies upon the
first solicitation of spring. Sown by
the winds, by the wandering birds,
propagated by the subtle agriculture
OF the elements which are its minis
tiers and servants, it softens the rude
outline of the world. 1t bears no bla-
zonry of bloom to charm the senses
with fragrance or splendor, but its
homeiy hue is more enhancing than the
lily or the rose. 1t yields no fruit
in earth or air, and yet should its har-
vest fail for single year, famine
would depopulate the world.-From
