Finance and Markets
Republican A. p. Leased WIrel

NEW YORK, March 1S.-For the most part today's stock market re- peated its uncertain and confusing course of the previous session. A number of leaders scored valuable gains, while other issues of equal or lesser prominence suffered from fur ther selling pressure.
 Oils, steels, equipments and food and leather specialties were higher at their best by one to four points, but top prices were slightly impaired in the realizing movement at the end To- baccos, motors and oils were inclined to react, together with a few special ties, of which Columbia Graphophone preferred was again a striking ex- ample. Sales amounted to 100000 shares. The net result offered no ob- vious indication of any material change of speculative sentiment, other than those based on technical considerations or motives of temporary expediency. In connection with the partial recovery of Atlantic Gulf it was rumored that the company had succeeded in its ef- forts to obtain financial assistance.
 Another large decrease in steel struc- tural orders. further indefinite sus- pension of textile operations in the south and the opposition of the United Mine Workers toward wage reductions added to the disturbed industrial situ- ation.
 Supplies of money for day to day use were again so plentiful as to effec further decline in the call money rate to five per cent in the open market but the lowest quotation on the ex' change was six per cent

NEW YORK, March 18-BradstreetS s tomorrow will say:
 Excellent spring weather and the near approach of Easter has bright ened up jobbing and retail trade. Col lections are a shade better, and the automobile and building and kindred trades have shown more life and have bought freely of materials. Trade as a whole is fair. best reports coming from the northern half of the country,
 But when this is said. it is con- ceded that industry still lags. that em- ployment though widely diffused still lacks heavily of affording full occu- patton for millions of workers, that signs of reaction are common. that the general industrial and commercial movement is very irregular and the pessimism voiced last week still finds expression in complaints that the re- vival is not as great as expected.

KOREA REMEMBERS FREEDOM

The anniversary of declaration of independence that is only a grim bit of irony occurred the first of this month for such Koreans as dared to celebrate Two years have passed since the people of the "hG-mit king dom" attempted to throw off the heavy yoke of Japan to no avail. and in all that time there has been a sue cession of revolts and stern repres- sions, plots, intrigues and sudden death. The murder in a TolSio hotel of Bingen Shoku. called a traitor to Korea and 8 cat's-paw of Japan, was the latest blow believed 10 have been struck by the Ireland of Japan
 For Korea. the Russo-Japanese war meant only a change of masters the knout of the czar for the sword of the Samuria. There was begun a process of assimilation with. all the thoroughness of the orient. The Jap anese worked through every possible agency civil religious, scholastic, forcing them all into the mold of Nippon Loyalty to Japan was de- manded primarily, even British mis- sionaries being warned to teach it.
 Seeing national death as inevitable unless some action was taken, a band of patriotic Koreans, declaring that they represented 20 million of their countrymen and spoke in the name of justice and humanity, struck two years ago for independence with this manifesto as their paean:
 We are no mean people. We have 43 centuries of history as a distinct, self governing nation. It is our sol emn duty to secure the right of free and perpetual development of our na- tional character, adapting ourselves to the principles of the reconstruction of the world.
 Tt is nearly ten years since, for the first time in our history, We put on the yoke of another nation and were made the victims of the cursed militarian imperialism of the world Such were the brave words of the K Koreans. In endeavoring to live up to them they were crushed, yet more relentlessly. Last year, the record of one month reported 3,l2S Koreans killed, and 2.404 of their homes, 31 schools and 10 churches burned.
 But the nation appears not to have sunk yet into the apathy of helpless ness. and Korea still plans and hopes.

Leghorn is SIS eggs in 365 days.
 c. Please tell me how to clean feather beds and piliows.-C. p.
 A. Choose a bright day when a good breeze is blowing. Have ready a bag of cheesecloth or thin flour sacking, closed except where the feathers are put into it. Rub the en- tire surface of this bag with a good quality of bar soap. Shake the feath- CTS into the soaped bag. This is best done by ripping a hole in the pillow the size of the hole in the bag and sewing the two edges together. After shaking the feathers into the bag, rip the two apart and sew up the bag. The bag should not be over two thirds full or the feathers will not have room to expand. Fill a wash boiler with cold water, immerse the bag of feathers and slowly bring to a boil. Lift and turn the bag frequent ly with the clothes stick. Boil for ? or minutes. Remove and rinse thoroughly in plenty of cold water. Drain and squeeze out all the water possible; shake and hang in the wind in the shade to dry. which will re- quire about two days. Do not try. to shake the down clinging to the in side of the ticking. Immerse right side out in water and the down will roll up in balls and can be removed easily.

MAY peRMIT CARS IN sERmupA

Hamilton, Bermuda-Renewed eff forts to enact a law permitting the use of motor cars in Bermuda have been made this spring by members of the Bermuda assembly.
 These islands have held out thus far against what is considered a dangerous innovation" but there is a strong party in favor of rapid transit.
 The chief opponents of automobiles are American winter residents and tourists. Mrs. Vincent Astor of New York, who has been occupying c resi- dence on Hamilton harbor for t-2 past two seasons, sent a letter to the local newspaper objecting to their introduction on the island.
 As this colony has only a little more than 19 square nils of area, visitors do not regard motor trans port as a necessity. Since the island on Nantucket admitted automobiles this is about the only civilized place from which they are barred

OUT OF THE ORDINARY

Sir Auckland Geddes. the British ambassador, recently told an amusing story of a hunt in the Canadian wilds. of the wolf packs that howled around the cabin at night, of going forth, a torch in one hand and a revolver in the other, of seeirS two bright eyes in the darkness and firing. The next morning it was discovered that he had killed a rabbit.
 Mir. Jusserand, the French ambas- sador and dean of the corps, later spoofed the Britisher a bit on his story.

HAD LONG FAMILY TREE

Queen Elizabeth was a victim to the weakness for long pedigrees. Among the treasurers of Hatfield is a genealogical tree, 42 feet long. which was drawn up for Elizabeth, tracing her descent back to Adam. In the more modern portion of the pedi gree admirably painted coats of arms are attached to all the names, to- gether with the dates of birth and death.
 It is curious to note that Queen Ehzabeth's coat of arms filled up one side only. The other side is left blank, presumably for the arms of the husband whom it was thought her majesty would some time or other design to accept.

MANY MARRIAGES IN ENGLAND

Steadily increasing since the war. the number of marriages last year in England and Wales-nearly four hundred thousand-broke all records.
 For the three years preceding the war says the health ministry, who give the figures. the annual average was only 2S0,0 ,000.
 A sign, however. that the matri- monial wave has reached it's crest is contained in the fact that the num- Der of marriages in the last quarter of 1920 is decidedly lower than in the last quarter of 1915 and 1919. --Ft-om the Continental Edition of the London Mail.
