II really don't know what | am go

trials mother. 'She has suddenly grown
dissatisfied with her looks. There does

face of which she approves and when
she mentions her brand of complex

were about to burst into sobs. 1t is
very trying because She is dissatisfied

is monotonous."
'sThen why doesn't she change her
face?' inquired Demetrias philosophic
father lighting a cigar. Il shouldn't
think that was a difficult feat in these
days of applied coloring and wax in
sets But what's the trouble with the
one she has anyhow? l always rather
liked it,"
Its a very nice face-infact, it is a
pretty one," Demetria''s mother assured
him. "She has a perfect complexion
beneath the one she puts on every hour
or so from a box, and I have always
been so glad that she inherited my
family's nosei A nose of the right
sort does give one such distinction.

yesterday, whenever I caught
glimpse of her she was twisting her
neck off before the big mirror with
her hand mirror also in use. The trag-

vast difference between the two sides
of her face She said that when you
looked at her left side it was an ut
terly different face from that of the
right side, which was your eyes OBJ

new ENGLAND ADVANTAGES.

Much has been said from time to time
about the number of unoccupied farms
in this part of the country, the failure
a larger proportion of the food required
by the people of these New England
states and the need of getting back 10
the farms. Regardless of such efforts as
have been made new move is being I'M
dertaken in New Hampshire under a
board of publicity for the purpose of
arousing an interest in the opportunities
OF that state among those who are seek
ing new fields and might reasonably see
as great an opportunity there as else
where. This board realizes that great
numbers have gone from New Hamp
shire and knowing that many sons are
leaving their homes in Ohio because of
the lack of opportunities it has under
taken an appeal to such people for the
purpose Of informing them about and in
teresting them in New Hampshire. It
feels that now is the time to get such
facts before those who are looking for
wha, chat state can offer.
It Is a movement that should have the
cooperation OF every organization III
the state that Is working for the better
ment, of the commonwealth and great
err utilization of it's advantages. If there
are not those within who are DESTROYS
of aiding in the further development OF
the state 1t is certainly time that others
who would appreciate the opportunity
are told about It. 1t is of course an ex-
pertinent but one that is worth trying. il
shows that New Hampshire isn't dis
posed to sit still and let the processes
Of decline go on without making an eff
fort to offset them.
1t is an undertaking that must neces.
sarily interest all of New England. There
are other states which need just wha'
New Hampshire does and possibly those
who could not be accommodated with
in the borders of that state could be in
terested in other New England opportu
mites. 1t is at least a capital time tt

Much more can be done in the way of
regulation with less friction and much
better results If undertaken before unde-
sirable conditions become established,
and at the same time there must be
appreciated the vast benefit that would
accrue through the saving Of life and
property by the early enactment of
proper safeguards
This cannot fail TO be recognized in
connection with the proposed establish
ment Of a bureau Of civil aeronautics
as branch of the department Of com
merce, bill for which has been intro
duced by Senator wadsworth and bears
his name.
Aviation Is comparatively new. Ex-
cept for the regulations which surround
government craft and the fact that oper-
ators are required to have a license there
are few regulations concerning flying.
Little attention is given to the provision
OF safe machines for the proper protec-
ton Of those carried and those who
might be underneath. Time and again
have these conditions been disclosed af-
ter fatalities have occurred and deplora-
bic conditions disclosed.
By the Wadxwortn bill this bureau

rules in the air, the arranging of air
routes. establishment of landing fields
and air stations, operating meteororogi-
cal services in connection with other de-
partmes1s, gathering and giving of
knowledge concerning aeronautics in
this and other countries and such coop

lar authorities Of other countries.
It Is plainly evident that there will
be much more general participation
In flying. AS the number of machines

numerous and complex. A bureau hav-
Ing charge OF. such matters and going
along with the development. and growth
Of aviation can better deal with the sit

or twenty years from now. Instead of
waiting until conditions actually force
action it is preferable to meet the situa-
ton now and keep pace with the prob
lens that are sure to accumulate.

NEW YORK, November 5.-The

CUT IN REDISCOUNT RATE
IS FEATURE OF THE WEEK

NEW YORK. November 5.-Au other
events of the week in the financial
markets were subordinated to the
announcement of rediscount rate re-
duction by practically every institu-
tion embraced in the federal reserve
system. accompanied by partial re-
laxation of the Bank of England rate
These significant developments met
with substantial response in the bond
market, but exercised little influence
in the stock list, although it was
generally conceded that they were a
prelude to better credit conditions at
home and abroad.
Most of the liberty bonds and the
two issues Of victory notes establish
ed highest quotations for a year or
more and concurrent improvement
was shown by foreign issues, notably
French and Belgian government Of
ferings. placed here during the war.
The local money market manifested
further restraints, however, as indi?
Gated by the firmness of the demand
loans and partial diminution Of
funds recently available for CONNER
cial purposes. Complaint was made
in mercantile circles that the more
liberal attitude of the Federal Re-
serve Board was not being observed
by private banking institutions.
Trading in stocks was preponder-
antly professional and focused large
those subjected to pressure from the
short interests. Rails yielded most
of the advantage derived from the
settlement of the railroad strike and
representative industrials were heavy

SLUMP IN WHEAT STIRS
WEEKS GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, November 5-Collapse Of
Wheat prices to below 81 a bushel has
resulted this week from persistent
nquldation on a market almost devoid
or support. Compared with a week
ago, wheat this morning showed a
setback of 6N cents to 7x. Corn was
DOWN 2k to 2A, and oats Off 2X to
a2S. Net changes in provisions
of 20 cents.
With Gulf of Mexico rail and port
1acilltles congested with grain for
Wnlch country owners were unable
70 get their money readily, and with
canada practically monopoliZing new
business with Europe, holders Of do
meSt1c wheat seemed to have become
more bearish than has been the case
Tor a long time, while 1t was esti-
mated that United States hard win
ter grades were 4 to 5 cents above a
working basis for Europe as com
pared with Canadian. Besides. it was
announced that millers at Buffalo and
other eastern points were, acquiring
wheat from Canada, and that the
Canadian visible supply today had
been heavily enlarged.
On the ensuing breaks che market
1eil to 80 cents hushel for December r
delivery. This was the lowest level
reacned IN six years, and contrasted
with $1.O4A, the average price of
cash wheat in Chicago for seven
years prior to the world war. Rallies
which followed from the e8 cents rec
ord were ascribed chiefly to conf
dence inspired by victory bonds at
par and to Argentina prediction.
Corn and oats gave way with wheat,
Provisions were relatively firm, ow-
ing to smallness of available stock.

TRADE CONDITIONS.

NEW YORK, November 5.-Dun's
review Of trade says:
Response to the constructive forces
in the economic situation does not
come quickly. but evidences Of revival
multiply. The recovery would be
more rapid If fewer restraints were
present, yet the gain is fairly steady
and there is promise Of its continu-
ance. A further lowering Of money
rates this week, rejecting the
strengthened banking position, Is an
encouraging factor, and lessening
of price unsettlement makes for more
confident operations in different quar-
ters.
"While all statistical barometers do
not reveal the improvement in busi-
ness, records of production in several
basic industries are distinctly better,
and a larger employment Of manufac-
turing capacity tends to reduce the
volume of idle labor. The latter ts
still of such proportions as to exert
potent influence on the public pur-
chasing power, but retail distribution
is somewhat stimulated as winter ap-
proaches. and offerings Of goods at
prices satisfactory to consumers are
being absorbed with considerable
freedom"

Free supply OF Money.

The reasonable assumption, there
fore, is that federal reserve rates will
not stop at the Az to s per cent scale
put into effect this week.
The general money supply Is the
freest in over four years. while with
the falling off in business activity the
demand for funds is the smallest since
before the war.
This implies that the money market
must eventually get back to the pre-
war level, and the significance Of this
for the bond market and investment
values generally lies in the fact that
they are still some distance away from
the selling prices prior to 1914
