NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-Dullness
characterized the first two hours
trading on the Stock Exchange to-
day. Traders took little interest
In the proceedings, which appeared
to be without initiative
The most important market lead
, ers scarcely fluetuated and what
ever important changes occurred
vfdual stocks, which were selected
Tor special reasons.
Producers and refiners was one
of these, being prominently dealt
In at declining prices. Opening at
z29s, for a loss of about a point, the
stock sank rapidly to 81 before sup
port was met. The weakness was
ascribed to rumors of new financing
and the expectation that at today's
meeting the extra dividend on the
preferred will be omitted Other
petroleum shares were scarcely af-
fected by this unsettlement, being
faYorably influenced by another de-
crease in domestic crude oil produc-
ton for. the week ended October 6.
Standard Oil of California, however.
was under pressure.
weakness iii the copper group
continued, Anaconda dropping to
new low for the year at 80 in re-
spouse to the renewed decline in the
.yelloK. metal and the announcement
that copper shipments. foreign and
domestic, combined, in Setember.
approXimated 160, 200, 900 pounds
against 205, 100000 pounds in, the
previous month.
Leather shares also encountered
fresh selling, the result of adverse
trade conditions, while Kelly-Spring-
field for similar reason struck new
bottom for the year. Famous Play
ers and Dawson Chemical were also
more or less depressed. Sears Roe
buck. on the other hand, was
strong, while Industrial Alcohol was
bid UP in good fashion following
the announcement of advance two
cents a gallon in the price of COM
mercial alcohol.
With the exception of Southern
Railway, which was. bid up briskly
at times, the. railroad list furnished
little attraction. The strength in
Southern Railway, common, was
based on the belief in certain quar-
ters that, favorable dividend action

NEW YORK, Oct. II. - Greater
progress was made in highway inn
provement in the United States last
year than in any other year in the.
history of the country, according to
late reports. The good roads
programs of various States were
given a strong impetus by the CO.
operation of business mems ana
bankers organizations.
In William G. Edens, an officer
of the Central Trust Company OF
Illinois, Chicago. the good roads
advocates have for more than q
score of years found champion.
He has been for ten years chairman
Of the transportation committee OF
the Illinois Bankers Association,

Since the passage Of the Federal

Edens today, "there were completed
up to March 81 total of F25,O 15
miles of Federal aid roads, OF
these, 21,738 miles have been finally
inspected and paid for, costing
$37S. 087, 845, of which the Federal
share was about $161, 000, O00 In ad-
dition, there are over $4,000 miles
under construction. III
In Illinois III 1911 there were
not more than 100 miles Of i'm.

over 5000 miles of brick and
asphalt highway, eighteen feet wide,

The railroads had offered good
facilities to the farmer in sending
his crops to distant markets, but
when he was separated by five or
ten miles of impossible roads from
the railroad terminals, these facili-
ties meant little to him.
With the advent Of the auto
mobile more people took a personal
interest in the subject OF highway
Improvement, and the tremendous
boost in popular sentiment was a
powerful factor in helping us carry
out our program"
Opposes Bond Issues.

IF KIDNEYS BOTHER
TRY DOSE OF SALTS

No man or woman can make a
mistake by flushing the kidneys oc-
casionally, says a well-known author
ity. Too much rich food creates acids
which clog the kidney pores so that
they sluggishly filter or strain only
part Of the waste and poisons from
the blood. Then you get sick. Rheu-
matism. headaches. liver trouble,
nervousness, constipation, dizziness,
sleeplessness, bladder disorders often
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts, or If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage, or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, be-
gin to drink soft water in quantities;
also get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any reliable pharmacy and
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys may then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with hthia, and has been used
for years to help flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to activity,
also to help neutralize the acids in the
system so they no longer cause irrita-
ton, thus often relieving bladder dis
orders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink, which every
one can take now and then to help
keep the kidneys clean and the blood
pure, thereby often preventing serious
kidney complications. BY all means
have your physician examine your
kidneys at least twice a ear.-Adver-
tisement.

How to Use Rouge and Iipsticl1
= n the improvement of every wom-
an it is essential that she have a
- good color. The power of sugges-
ton is a very strong one in way of
coloring.
1 should like to cite the instance of
a woman who has natural color, but
having a poor day.. puts on a little bit
of powder but no rouge, goes out and
meets a friend
The friend, being accustomed to
color in her face, excIaims. My,
what is the matter with you?' She
is indeed glad to report that nothing
really is the matter with her, and
passes along, thinking it was not nee
essary for her friend to exclaim of
the lack of color in her face.
A few minutes later she meets an
other friend, who, instead Of greet
ing her with a pleasant bidding, says
as If shocked, why, you do not look
welll''
She laughs It of. replying, well,
I have not been feeling so very we'll. 8"
But the third person who meets her
with a similar greeting will force
her to go home and to bed. She will
feel badly merely through the power
Of suggestion, and only for the want
of little colortng in her face
How much better it would be for
that woman on her colorless day to
have applied a little bit Of coloring
according to her complexion.
Not too bright, but as she always
has a natural coloring, she must
simulate the real with a very delicate
suggestion Of rouge. which will make
her eyes look brighter and improve
her general appearance.
There is an art in applying rouge
First, it should be applied exactly as
the color comes in the face. Pinch
your face and see where the color
comes in the cheeks-close to the
nose. high toward the ears and down
toward the neck. Rarely do you
have coloring on the chin, so I do
not advise the use of rough there
Study the color Of your complexion.
even though you have TO experiment
until you get the right shade, and
then apply rouge lightly TO simulate
the natural alwaysi
Do not apply rouge or a Hpstick
or fiout a powder puff in public.
You know men would not insult q
woman by performing any part of
their toilet in her presence, so let
us be cOnsiderate of their feelings
and perform our toilet only in privacy.

or rouge.

Saved Me Many a Sick Spell, y
Says Texas Farmer, Who Has
Long Known Usefulness
of Black-Draught.

Il have used Thedford's Black
for more than 30 years." declares
Mr.. H. H. Cromer, a substantial,
well-known farmer, residing out on
Route 3. Naples, Texas.
q am As years old, and when
young l had indigestion and was
puny and my folks gave me a liver
regulator. Then Black-Draught was
advertised and we heard of it.
Il began to take Black-Draught,
and have used it, when needed, ever
since. I use Black-Draught now in
my home, and certainly recommend
it for any liver trouble.
Il have given It thorough trial,
and after thirty years can say Black
Draught is my standby. 1t has
saved me many sick spells"
Mr.. Cromer writes that he is
never out of Black-Draught," and
says several of his neighbors prefer
it to any other liver medicine. 81
always recommend Black-Draught to
my friends" he adds.
This valuable, old, powdered liver
medicine is prepared from medicinal
roots and herbs, and has none Of the
bad effects so often observed from
the use of calomel, or other power

Black-Draught helps to keep the
liver in trim, helping prevent or re-
lieve such troubles as constipation,
biliousness, indigestion, sick head

Be sure to get the genuine.-Ad-
