Increased Care in
Buying Displayed
by General Public
Real Values Insisted Upon
Now Before Investment
Made-Large Job Lot
Sales Better.
BY RICHARD SPILLANE.

New York, March s.-There is
more sobriety of statement regarding
security values and business pros
poets than was common recently.
That Is not unhealthy or surprising
The average price of shares dealt
in on the New York stock exchange
was at the highest in history last
week. At the same time the prices
OF the grains Mas very high and of
cotton and various other products
quite high. Toward the close of the
week there WAS d small recession in
stock values and a drop of nearly %
cents in the price of May wheat.
The decline in stocks synchronized
with reports from some distributive
centers that in various lines of gen
eral merchandising business was lit
tie IL any larger in volume than this
time last year and from the steel
centers that While present produc-
ton was nearly capacity. orders for
the second quarter of the year We're
not so large as expected.
Railroads Prosper.
About as simple description of
the seeming change in the general
attitude toward securities and com
modities Is that from the time of the
national election until just recently
people in their complete confidence
we're inclined to buy. Now they are
inclined to examine first, whether
goods or securities-and buy only
what they consider represents real
value Meanwhile dealers In odd
| lots--that Is from l to 80 shares of
stock.report the largest business In
long time. That would indicate con-
| fidence on the part of the mass of
people in conditions generally regard
less. of the doubts that poster the
professionals.
Heads of tho large dry goods dis
tributing concerns report business
about the same as this time last year.
General opinion has been that 1t was
considerably larger. The railroads
are doing handsomely. 1t is not so
much in increased traffic as in
greater economy in operation.
Exports Large.
Exports continue large Those of
| cotton are amazingly good with pros
poets of the greatest total attained
except In a wartime year.
The textile business in Europe has
revived wonderfully and there is slow
but good improvement in America.
The copper industry is dun at pres
ent owing to its chronic trouble of
over production. Recession In price
is curing this condition.
A greatly improved outlook has
brought a goodly mea sure of prosper
itv within reach of the oil people and
most of the other major and minor
departments of the nations business
are doing well. Money continues
cheap.
All in all conditions continue good.

Furniture Styles
Change With Years

"Few persons realize the changes
that have taken place in the style
of furniture during the last few
years" says Wilbur Brandt. Fur
niture styles which were quite the
rage only few years ago are al
most obsolete now" The tendency
at present in living room furniture
seems to be in the smaller oblong or
odd shaped tables rather than the
longer library or sofa tables. There
is a great demand now for down
filled chairs and sofas instead of the
cheaper spring filled construction.
The Brandt Furniture company is
making an unusual effort to show
solid mahogany and solid walnut fur
niture rather than veneer or combi-
nation woods. The solid woods are
enduring and once installed in home
become "A source of satisfaction for a
lifetime. The illustration shown above
depicts one Of the popular designs in
odd chairs so much in vogue. These
chairs are shown in vari-colored de-
signs of wool tapestry.

Two Singers Win
|Orpheum Applause
Marine Shares Honors With
Blackface Artist-Bessie
Barriscale on Bill.

Harry Holbrook and Joe Darcy
are popular as singers with the new
bill at the Orpheum. Holbrook, ac-
companed by Bruce King at the pi-
ano. appears in the uniform of the
United States Marine corps and rem
ders pleasinely several standard selec-
tions. including Ernest Balls The
Prodigal," Song Of Songs" by Boyer
"On the Road to Mandalay," and a
ancient song, Bananas" Darcy,
blackface songster. has an Individual
style of putting over his ballads and
otherwise ingratiating himself.
"Scrubby' is the name of a farcical
skit written In commonplace manner
and which serves as a vehicle for the
presentation of Bessie Barriscale,
who has been identified with motion
pictures. Miss Barriscale appears
first as scrub girl. uncouth of man.
ner and speech, and in the second
part she appears transformed In man
ners and garments to show what can
be done with a scrub girl in one year
by a man who has inclination and
money. The act arouses a bit of
laughter. but does not call for any
extended praise. Howard Hickman,
who wrote the skit, appears with
Miss Barrlscale.
In his line Don Valerie demon
strates that he Is leader. His
dancing on wire arouses merited
applause. The closing circus act of
Bostock's riding school with Lillian
st. Leon, arouses interest and merri-
ment. 1t closes with an amusing
demonstration of how circus riders
are made. Several thrilling stunts
are included in this act. The dane
ing act of Eileen Schofield has sew
eral meritorious features, including
the fancy steps of one of the four
young men who assist. Bert Yorke
and Ed Lord have a line of whim-
sicalities and nonsense which has an
appeal TO those who enjoy the slap
stick variety of entertainment.

Securities React
Slightly to Hike

Volume Of Trading Moder.
ately Contracted-Check
Noted in Steady
Price Increase.

New York. March s.--1'he most
significant development in the bond
market last week was the very slight
reaction of securities to the recent
increase In the federal reserve redis-
count rate. A moderate contraction
in the volume of trading took place,
but apparently the only effect on
prices was a check to the upward
movement which had progressed
gradually since the first OF the year
Coming at the end of a period OF
stiffening money conditions, the re
vision of the bank rate occasioned lit
tie fear that there would be a further
sharp upturn in time funds within
the next few months. The general
action Of the market indicated that
the money situation had exerted only
a minor influence on the price trend

issues showing the market value on
March ! virtually the same as at the
beginning of February.

Bond offerings totalled approximately
s35, 900 900, less than half the volume
of the preceding week. when the mar
ket absorbed s75,000,000 in new Is
sues. Business Is expected to expand
this week, with preparations about
completed for offerings of more thar
s65 900 900. Among the major items
on the schedule are $4,000 900 for
tho Oklahoma Gas and Electric com
pany, $1,000, 900 for the Toho Elec
trio company of Japan. SO 900 900 for

Where price changes of any I'm
portance took place last week, they
were attributable to special develop
ments Trading was enlivened by the
erratic fluctuations of st. Paul Rail
way bonds, which offered opportuni
ties for speculative operations. In
view OF the uncertainty regarding the
roads ability to refund about s4s. 900

June selling pressure against this Is
sue was particularly heavy. On the
other hand there was evidence oi

the operation would be unusually
successful.

The Old Town Scintillates
 when Oxford Boys Doll Up

OXFORD, Eng, May 19.-(R- For several years past Oxford men of adventurous character have been experimenting with new fashions in evening clothes. They have tried coats without tails, and coats with white lapels, and double breasted coats with knee brooches, but al. ways in vain.
 At last a new style has been ac- cepted. Young Oxford men of means and spirit now go out of an evening in silk stockings, light silk knee brooches, but or purple velvet jack cts, and cream silk shirts much frilled at the throat and the cuffs.
 While the fashion is not greatly suitable for subway or rainy even- ing wear it is declared by it's pro ponents to be certainly more pie turesque and vast deal more pleas ing than the full dress" which what they characterize as the dullest of last centuries, has decreed should encase mankind when he steps out for bit of an evening.
