A sucker list is made up, for the most part, of names

to gents who, in a general way of speaking, possesses at least
one share of every stock ever issued. A cream puff is

A"suckerlist follows the name of each Cream puff"
with a key like these:

pet bug, fishing. jolly him about his home garden.
Obviously, these have a cunning appeal to the prospects,
inner desires-the things he is most interested in, but to
which, usually, he is too busy to give his first attention.
Psycho-Analysts call an inner and repressed desire a
complex For instance, a man in springtime finds he can
not concentrate on his work. What's really wrong is that
he has a Fishing complex"
His subconscious mind wants to go fishing, ahead Of doing
anything else. Hence the conscious mind, befuddled by the
subconscious desire, 90 has fishing on the brain"
Naturally, he "cant keep his mind on his work."
If the man knocks off work and gets out his tackle and
rods, a few days Of angling will erase his fishing complex. He
comes back, finds it easy to concentrate on his job-and is
convinced that the change and the fresh country air did him
worlds of good" What really happened is that he downed
his fishing complex by gratifying it. As . ~slangster would
put it, he gets his fishing bug out of his system.
Psycho-Analysts, in presenting that line Of reasoning,
seem to think they have found something new. 900

FoR the SAKE OF THE MOTHERS

Drives may come and drives may go, but the one drive
that Perth Amboy cannot afford to ignore is the annual ap
peal for the support of the Day Nursery. If there ever was
d worthy charity this is one. 1t was founded by the good
women of the city in an effort to assist mothers with young
children who have to go out to work in order to keep their
family together. In a city like Perth Amboy there are many
such persons and it is a wonderful thing to be able to hell
them.
The great relief and contentment that the privileges
Of the Day Nursery bring to the mothers who patronize it
can be realized only by mothers themselves, and even then
the true realization comes only when ones home is threat
ened with being broken up and the children taken away. The
only thing that can compare with the love that a mother
has for her child is the love that the child has for its mother.
II il because the Day Nursery helps TO keep mother and chil1
together that it is so worthy of our support.
The idea of the Day Nursery is that mothers who are
compelled to go out and work during the day, but who have
babies that would prevent them from so doing, may take the
babies to the Day Nursery and, for a few cents, leave ths
infant there in the tender care of competent nurses, who
Feed and care for the little one all through the day, the
mother calling and taking the child home with her at night.
In this way many families that would otherwise be broken
up are kept together.
The amount sought to carry on this wonderful work for
another year is but $500. 1t ought to be easy for Perth
xmboy. The solicitors are now at work. Treat them gen
oualy for the sake OF the mothers OF Perth Amboy.

Youngstown Plants
 Not to Be Affected
By Associated Press

Youngstown, O., April 15.-SteeI plants of the Youngstown district will feel no effect of the coal strike for at least another week, officials said to- day. Operations next week will be increased according to schedules given out at company offices.
 Independent plants will be working at about so per cent of capacity next week, as against TO. to 75 per cent this week. The three steel corpora tion plants will continue to run at full capacity with the exception of one blast furnace.
 Iron production remains the same, the increase being in finishing mills. Steel operators are apprehensive that continuance of the union miners success in the Connellsville coke fielcs, will cause a curtailment of blast furnace operations, though the danger Is said not immediately at hand.
 Further stiffening of steel prices due to the uncertainty of the. future market appeared today in the report of sale by an independent company of 1000 tons of sheet bars at $3S ton an advance of $2 a ton and of 5, 900 tons of small billets at the same price and same advance. Both were for delivery in 30 days.

BUYING OF MAY BY EASTERN HOUSES IS
 CAUSE WHEAT RISE
Corn and Oats in Full Sym pathy and Both Bolster Up, With Provisions Up and
 Down
By Associated Press

Chicago, April 15.-Wheat acted tight and with buying of May by houses with eastern connections and with rather general short covering, prices advanced readily with May in the lead, going to a wider premium over the July. The close was strong 1& to with May s1.42 to $1.43 and July s1.25% to $1.26.
 Corn was up to 1as oats gained h to M while provisions ranged to 22 higher.
 Offerings of wheat were not large early and the advance was easily at tained with some stop loss orders caught on the way up. Foreign news generally was rather more favorable to holders, as drought prevails in North Africa and reports of aban- doned acreages are increasing from France. Russia, it was reported, had agreed to pay its old debts and this was regarded as & big factor in the worlds situation. The traders here which has been bearish of late has changed considerably and many of them are now on the bull side, the action of the market of late suggest- ing that the surplus has passed into strong hands.
 Corn and oats were influenced mainly by the action of wheat, but shorts covered freely and there was also good buying by local houses and A higher range was easily attained. Provisions were dull and prices, mainly steady; the strength in grains orfsetting to some extent the easier tone in the hog market.

Principal Factor
 In Steel Market
 Has Been Big Strike
By Associated Press

New York. April 15.-The coal strike was the principal factor in the steel market this week as the inroads made by the union in the non-union fields threatened to very seriously affect the supply of fuel. Consequently the entire market was very nervous and unsettled, although demand increased In volume and prices were firmer all round Pro- ducers. however, are showing hesita- tion about booking orders ahead on account of the uncertainty of the sit- uation and in some cases have with drawn from the market entirely and are confining operations to old orders.
 The pig iron market was also in- fluenced by the coal strike and prices were higher with a few furnaces already blown out on account of the fuel situation and the fears of diff culties in securing coke.
 Copper was less active but firm. While the larger domestic consum- CTS are believed to have bought very little since prices advanced the market has been very well main tained. with producers showing no lack of confidence in the outlook. Evidently sellers have found encour- agement in reports of improving gem eral business conditions and the strength of security markets while a more hopeful view of export pros poets has been promoted by firmness in London and the possibility of stimulating developments at the Genoa conference.
 Tin has shown further strength after the sharp rise in London. In- creased offerings were encountered at the higher levels, however. caus- ing moderate setbacks.
 Lead was marked up to cents by the leading producer and was held still higher by some of the outside interests. Demand is broad, with April well sold and May bookings ahead of the previous month. Zinc, while firm and still quite active with a fair foreign inquiry,

 FURTHER DECLINES IN COTTON GOODS
Dry Goods Market the Past Week Noted For Advances on Least Demand For
 Spring Lines
By Associated Press

New York, April 15.-The chief fea- ture in cotton goods and yarn mar kets has been the resistance monifest- ed to further declines in prices and the rapidity with which prices rise when any demand springs up. Wide print cloths reacted to a basis of z 7A c for 3S1k inch 34x60s and as soon as call came for 10000 pieces of goods the price went up Bc and mills held for further hc before showing in- terest in late contracts. Most prices have gone so low that mills could not see a profit while cotton held around 1sc a pound. Curtailment of produc- tions has been more general than for some time, regardless of a strike in New England that has already taken more than 100, ,000, ,000 pieces of staple goods out of current supplies. Fall River and New Bedford mills are run ming on reduced schedules and some of the southern mills are ceasins night work.
