Bond Market

New YORK, Nov. 1z.-After Z brief
show Of strength the bond market
today relapsed into extreme dull
ness. Probably the advances ex-
ceeded the declines, but neither
could be considered. significant. All
the liberty loans and the treasury

actions.
Some OF the high grade railroad
bonds made fractional advances.
New York Central SIS, Reading gen.
eral Is and Canadian Pacific de-
benture 4s were examples. Union
Pacific Is and West Shore Is de-
clined.
Trading in speculative railroad
issues were light. President I'M
derwood's reassuring statement as
to the Erie had little effect on the
bonds. Mr.. Underwood stated that
the Erie was in funds to make dis
bursements due up to and includ-
ing Jan. 2, and that more tonnage
was being offered to the road than
it could handle. Nor was there
much reflection in B. & o. bonds of
the weakness in the stock. Presi-
dent Willard's statement was TAX

common stock this year was not
likely. Unless some payment is
made B. & o. bonds will lose their
status as legal Investments for saw
ings banks. In view of the large
maturities the road has to meet in
the next few years it has always
been considered probable that the
directors would make every effort
to keep B. & o. bonds in the legal
class.

Sc.board Air Line IS lost another
point. New Haven IS gained as
much. C. & o. convertible 41ss

fluctuated uncertainty. Chicago
Great Western IS gained rather
sharply but still sold below so.
There was little change in quo

The same is the case in the sheep
house. Range stock which was in
tended for the market earlier in
the season, had to be held back
on account Of lack Of cars. This
made the range season longer than
usual, but the supply of cattle
from that source is much increased
compared with last years run.

over from yesterday, and the trade
was weak.

calves.

price. Best cows were steady. Can

sold at firm prices. Better shipping
orders sent small lots up to $1,000.
HOGS,
Hog trade was mostly va dime
lower, after slow start. Choice
light hogs sold at $500 while the
practical top on butchers was $7.85.

posed to take profits where ever

reached in practically all Pipe

Declaration of the regular quar-

a disappointment to those who had
bought the stock on expectations
that this company would follow
the lead Of other pipe line compan-
les and distribute some of its sur
plus in the shape of a special divi-
dend or stock allotment. Conse-
quently the stock broke sharply.
Realizing sales were felt in such
stocks as New York Transit. Prai-
rie Pipe Line and Southern Pine
Line.
Other Standard Oils moved SYM
pathetically. Magnolia Petroleum
and Standard of New York were
slightly lower. Galena Signal lost
two points and Anglo American
Oil and the Indiana shares were
traded in fractionally under their
close of Tuesday. Standard of
Kansas, selling ex-dividend S. and
Crescent Pipe Line ex-dividend 75c,
were exceptions and gained
ground.
Profit taking in Durant Motors
which usually occurs after an ad-
vance Of three or four points in
this stock made its appearance to-
day. The new issue of Ford Mo-

At a late hour Friday night no word
had been heard of the missing man.
The police can advance no theory for
the disappearance except that Dawson,
who they say was a heavy drinker,
might have wandered away while drunk.
Yet the fact that he is presumed to
have taken a civilian suit of clothes
and disposed of the recruiting office
property, has given some doubt to this
theory.

"A DISGRACE TO BE FAT"
Copyright. 1879. by Newspaper Feature Service

DR.. Lulu Hunt Peters of Los Angeles
rose up in a public meeting in tina
city the other day and said, said she;
1T is a disgrace to be fat"
And all the fat men and fat wOmeI
in the United States of America have
taken a deep-rooted and violent dislike
to DR.. Peters-just for that.
Come now, Doctor-don't you think
you went a little bit too far-honestly
now, don't you?
1t certainly is a nuisance to be fai
and it certainly is q bore to be fat and
it is certainly ugly to be fat-but a
disgrace!
Isn't the fat itself enough of a pun
ishment. DoctOr-without your rushing
out after us with such a bludgeon as
disgrace?
An Inconvenience
The next thing you know somebody
Will make it a crime to be fat, and the
penitentiaries and jails will be full of
poor ~easy-going, well-meaning, good
natured creatures, who never commit
ted a crime in their lives, except to
cake, or maybe have a laundering for
cream puffs and things.
4 nuisance? l should thing it is!
Try to buy a dress without having
it made to order and you'll see. Such

such lovely colors, such darling lines.

and things-go inside the shop and try
to buy it.

That's what the poor woman who
weighs more than she ought to. is
doomed to hear.
1t costs money to be fat. too-ev-
erything must be specially made and
specially ordered, and specially de-
signed and if you expect to get all that
Tor nothing, you're doomed to a disap-
polntment.
A Nuisance? Certainly!
A nuisance? Why, certainly, it is a
to be fat!
The theater seats are too narrow, and
whenever anyone wants to leave your
row you have to get up and step out
INTO the aisle to let them pass. And

NO NEW TAXES WANTED.

Candidates for state and county
offices might as we'll realize that the
people do not want new taxes, direct
or indirect.
What we need is something in
return for the money we already pay
as taxes in this State.
We will venture the opinion that
this state receives less III return for
taxes than any other place on earth.
A state income tax can mean but
one thing; the driving from the state
of the great army of business men
who come here to make investments
and enjoy the climate.
1t is the work of individuals who
have not the interest OF the state at
heart, but sacrifice it to selfish po-
litical ambitions for votes.
Taxpayers money is spent freely
TO the end that some new way to
raise more money can be found, and
when it is found it is used as a pro-
WIDER for another lot of incompetent
taxeaters.
Politically speaking, If something
isn't done toward the returning of
some of the tax money already paid
by the people in service the next ad-
will be of different
political faith.
With the aid of subsidized news
papers, heavy exnepditures are put
over, in turn blamed on the people !
