The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Trading in foreign exchange was
quiet against yesterday, and rates
moved within narrow margin. There
were several interesting features Of
the movements. however, prominent
among which were another advance in
Austrian and Swiss rates and setbacks
in Brazilian and Chinese exchange
The improved trend in Austrian
crowns is attributed to the belief in
London that the reparations commit
tee will take steps to help Austria
recupcratc from the wars destruction.
The commission, with authority from
the Allies. Is prepared to release the
first lien on certain Austrian bonds IN
order to enable Austria to issue bonds
against these in accordance with the
Ter Meulen plan. according tn A. W.
Kiddy's dispatch to The Evening Post.
The continued advance of the Swiss
franc to the highest point since last
July probably reflects depreciation of
other European exchanges
Weakness of coffee markets and the
inability of Braziians to dispose of
stocks caused further weakness of ex-
change on Rio, rates dropping five
eighths Of cent Exchange on
Shanghai and Hong Kong dropped back

Market Opinion Mixed

Opinions of stock market observers
after the close Of yesterdays market
were decidedly mixed. One house,
which has been bearish for the last
six months at least, thought that the
last two days swift upturn in prices
was for the most part due to short
covering and that when this has run
its course values will again sag be-
cause there is nothing in the business
outlook yet to warrant sustained rise.
Another house expressed the view that
the rally would last until some time
early in April. and offered this argu-
ment: "To sustain it we believe there
will be an easier money condition after
tightness to-day and tomorrow, more
definite prospect of the new Admins
tration's legislative program, con-
tinued if irregular general business
Improvement, reduction in unemploy-
ment and consequent increase in pui
chasing power. The chief hurdle that
the market will be called upon to take
in the immediate future will ne the
danger of temporary tightness in call
money when income tax checks are be-
ing cashed in the next few days"

Earth 10 Slowing Down.

Happily for our convenience, the
process is extremely slow, but all the
same the fact Is that the days are
getting longer. Il, :. g": 49,
This does not refer to hours or
daylight increasing with the advancing
year, but to days as timed by the
revolution of the earth on its axis.
The earth's power Of rotation, says
a writer in the: Popular Science
Monthly, is growing weaker and as a
result its revolution on its axis is
slowing up. Which means, Of course,
that the day is frightening.
An epoch must eventually arrive
when the day will be equal in length
to the year; that is, to the time 1t
takes for US to revolve about the sun.
Then the earth will always turn the
same face toward the solar luminary.
Just as the moon now always turns the
same face toward us, and one-half OF
our planet will have sunshine all the
year, while the other half Is in total
and permanent darkness.
That Is, If the sun still Is shining.
It may become a dim and chilly orb
before then.

WOMEN MUST AVOID WORRY
Wealsens the Body for its Daily Fight
for Health, and So Destroys
y Good Looks. 81 -!

Every minute that a woman spends
in worry, weakens the body for its
daily fight. for health. 1t adds age,
it causes deep burrows to appear on
the forehead, it Injuries the digestion
and robs life Of all pleasures and
= peace. So IT, you wish to keep your
good looks, don't worry. -: .v>s-s-s
? Work gives incentive, and thus life
ana health, to the organs Of the body.
It strengthens our will, teaches us
patience, perseverance and the cour-
age to endure. It has been the sal
walton of many. The homely duties
that are. performed by the house moth
er each day, the sweeping, cooking
and home caring, are wholesome du-
ties which lead to health and strength.
But II women allow their daily
tasks to fret and worry them, they
lose all Of the benefit they otherwise
would gain. It is not always the &C.
tual work that wears out the nerves
and temper and ruins the disposition.
It is the spirit in which. the work is
done which allows worry to creep in.

blue. And on summer nights, when
the fishermen 60 forth, the phosphores-

went down In torrent Of flame. and

Hannibal on Record az Having Played
Mean Trick on King Eumenes
greg. = .'.+ Of Perqamus. T. ~ 80 q

When Hannibal was about to be at
tackled by King Eumenes of Pergamus
at sea, that crafty person decided that
in fair fight the king would win.
The enemy had more ships and more
men, and Hannibal and all his follow
ers would be ut the bottom Of the sea
If any attempt were made by him to-
engage the vessels Of the king as in
dividual units. Hannibal therefore
gave out word that all his ships we're
to join in an attack on the ship car
rying the king, on the theory that with
out a leader the enemy would soon
be demoralized. To find out what
ship the king was on he sent mes
senger just before the battle with
tablet to the enemy's fleet. The mes
senger was directed to the ship bear
ing Eumenes, and all s*of Hannibal's
fleet had merely to watch the little
boat to identify the kings vessel.
When the battle began Hannibal's
boat rushed to the side of Eumenes'
ship, and the formers sailors began
to hurl great earthenware pots into
the kings boat. The defenders Of the
ship at first laughed at this queer
method of warfare, but their laughter
promptly changed to bowls Of terror
when it was discovered that the pots
were filed with poisonous snakes Of
the most deadly variety. The ship
turned and fled for shore, its decks
alive with the kissing, gliding snakes.
The other ships also treated to snake
bombs followed suit, and Hannibal
was the victor. =, ~ .s+'
