REACTIONS SET IN
 COTTON MARKET
 AFTER GOOD WEEK
General Staple List Closed Barely Steady at a Net De- cline of Fifteen 10 TWen-
 ty-three Points
By Associated Press

NeW forR, February 4.-Ths re- coveries of the past three or four days were followed by reactions in the cotton market this morning. The disposition to take profits on recent purchases was probably increased by nervousness over labor conditions among New England mills and the unsettled ruling of the cotton goods markets. Otherwise no special news feature was mentioned on the de- cline which carried May contracts off to ls.4oc, or 34 points below the high level of yesterday and 24 points net lower. That delivery closed at ie.tic. with the general market clos ing barrel steady at net decline ot :s to 2s points.
 iee opening was irregular at a de- cline of 3 points to an advance of points. There were overnight buy ing orders around the ring. and the firmness of foreign exchange en-, couraged some scattered buying in anticipation that the increased buy ing power of foreign money would revive export demand. Realizing for over the Week-enu supplied the d6- mand, however, while there was also some selling by houses with south western connections, and the market gradually worked lower during the late afternoon.
 March sold off to 16.70c and July 10 16c or 20 to 2A points net lower and last prices were approximately the lowest of the day. Sales of print cloths in the Fall River market were estimated at 9o.o0o pieces for the i week and curtailment of production at 60,000.
 It is reported that manufacturers at Fall River and some of the other larger textile centerS are likely to announce wage reductions in the near future in line with those reported at other New England points. Labor leaders are quoted to the effect that a strike of 150,0o0 textile workers will be called on February 13 and that 1t may eventually involve half a million men. Rumors that two or three more New England mills mad been closed by strikes were circu- lated here late in the morning but no definite figures on the number of operatives involved were mentioned. The amount of cotton on shipboard awaiting clearance was estimated at 100000 bales against s4,oo0 last year.

By Associated Press

 Industrial conditions continued to hAaIh liHies steel and iron production showing little recovery from the low levels of last year. Additional nrioa cuts in automobiles and wage reduo- tions and strikes in the New Enw- land textile trade were among ths other significant industrial deyalon- ments.
 Various new bond and nota offer ings were added to the many under Writings Of the early weeks of the new year Of which the Chicago, Buri- ington and Quincy s30.o0o. .0oo issue was the most important Liberty bonds cancelled part of their recent gains, as did also some of the high grade pre-war favorites.
 Call loans in connection with Feb ruary payments occasioned a brief Hurry in the money market. Demand loans soon eased from to A. per cent, and prime commercial paper maturing in 80 to 90 days was free ly taken at K per cent. The London cables sounded a note of caution, +tha outstanding feature of the local mar ket for foreign exchange was the snarp rise in sterling. Demand bills Tor that remittance today touched S4.S21s that quotation affordine A striking contrast to the low of s3.1s registered at this center exactly two years ago.

NO PROSPECTS FOR A
BREAK IN PR0TRACTED
DRY SPELL is SEEN

Washington, Oct. 6.--With an
other "a hours of generally faic
weather forecast for the entire sec
ton OF the country from the plains
states eastward, the United States
weather bureau saw no immediate
prospect today for a break in the
protracted drouth which has grip
ped a greater portion of the coun-
try. Attending high temperatures
for the season, which yesterday es-
tablished records at a number of
points in the east and middle west,
also were expected to continue at
least until tomorrow night.
Despite the extent and intensity
of the drought, the damage to
crops has been exceedingly small,
agriculturalists declare. The most
serious effect has been the retard-
ing of winter wheat sowing,
The menace of forest fires, al
ready causing huge damage and
threatening additional loss of life
in Canada in addition to areas, ag-
gregating about 100 square miles,
now burning in northern Mime
sofa, is by far the most feared
consequence of the drought.
A summary available from gov
eminent records today of the five
year period from 1915 to 1920
showed timber and property de-
struction of more than $S5,715,-
600, due to forest fires that burned
over an area of 56,500,000 square
miles, more than the area of the
state of Utah.

REJUVENATING OLD FACES

wonder whether my mon
readers would be interested in the
experiences of an elderly man who,
for business reasons, had to make
his face look young, and who did
so through exercise. Perhaps even
some of my women readers will
find a hint or two, though women
are popularity supposed to prefer
cosmetics.
This man used one cosmetic, a
little white vaseline rubbed into the
skin after shaving, but he never
used it when massaging or exer-
cising the face because he claimed
that the friction produced by the
dry palms Of the hands was more
beneficial than oil or cream
The daily face friction or mas
sage will eliminate wrinkles and
tone UP sagging muscles by draw
ing up fresh blood and fresh sup
plies of fat to go under the skin
to build 1t up. But for the first
several weeks the beginner mus;
expect the face to be thinner. This
is because certain amount of
loose fat is rubbed away before
the new firm flesh begins to form.
This man massaged the muscles
of the cheeks firmly with the palms
of the hands, pressing upward and
back toward the temples. about 10
or 15 movements altogether. His
mouth he massaged by inserting
the little fingers at the corners Of
the lips and alternately pulling
and relaxing. The forehead was
rubbed briskly toward the temples,
the chin rubbed vigorously at its
point, the jaws rubbed backwards
from the mouth to the ear. This
facial massage was taken in bed
every morning. These treatments
were also taken in connection with
various other massage and exer-
cises for the entire body. The face
would naturally benefit by all these
other exercises as we'll.
After the massage vaseline was
rubbed into the skin and wiped
off with warm water.
K. M. R.:-Olive oil is not a
hair tonic.so you would not benefit
by using it except to relieve dry
ness of the scalp If the hair is
inclined to be dry heated curling
irons are injurious. Consult your
doctor regarding the dark circles
around the eyes.

CARRIES CHALK

Heavy Load of Humorous
Technology on the Way
to the Pacific Coast.

Driving a 1910 model touring
car that bore upon its surface. in
addition to the marks of age, le-
gends of various descriptions, a
party of four young men drove
into town yesterday from Colorado
Springs. One Of the announce

The young men are musicians,

They also put their car in the auto
