Neu Idea in Stenciling

The latest development in the art of
stenciling Is to use a piece Of old lace
In place of the usual stencil cut from
stencil board. The lace gives excep-
tionally delicate results when properly
used, especially for the wall panels
that are now so popular.
The lace Is prepared by giving 1t q
coat Of shellac to stiffen It., says
Popular Science Monthly. 1t is fns.
tened firmly against the wall and the
color Is applied with a stiff stencil
brush in the usual way, except that
great care must be taken to prevent
the design from becoming blurred
When dry, the panels are framed with
panel molding.

Prof. Moellgaard's Cure for tuberculosis

Physicians all over the world are
stirred up over the announcement Of
tuberculosis cure by Prof. Holger
Moellgaard Of Copenhagen (portrait
herewith). Sanocrysine, or health

orally, is evidently a remarkable prod
uct. Scientists declare they have
been through the laboratories where
1t is made and found that 1t fulflls
the claim Of a famous Swedish scien-
fist, made few years ago, that he
could produce negatively charged salt
gold which would be an absolute cure
for tuberculosis.

 Hard For Working Girls
 But, though SC hotel rooms may be found, terror strikes the heart of the business OF professional woman who comes here to work and live on what she makes,
 For, granted that she could get n room for $5 q day; that's $35 q week.
 And not more than 90 women in all Miami arc making as much as 1 S75 q week, according 10 the Y. w. ! C. A.
 The working woman must find q room. She figures on a possible $1@ q week as her maximum
 But, startling thought it may sccm there is hardly one single room available in Miami, in which sclf-rcspecting working girl would live, which does not cost at least SEQ q week.
 And girl has q mighty hard time finding even a SEQ room which she may have by herself.
 Landlades have learned that men don't mind doubling up" as much as women do. Four men on cots in one room will pay $15 each. There's $Go Q week right there. Why bother with girl with only SEQ?
 The room registry of the Y. W. c. A, is desperate.

 The Y. w. has 100 rooms Of it's own and will have no more by Jan uary 1. These rooms rent for from S2 to $5 q week. Thousands of girls are after them, and the Y. w. simply takes in girls who would be on the streets otherwise.

Investment Bankers Waging
Campaign to Enforce
Agreements

A campaign against the breaking
of syndicate agreements made Tor
the disposal of new bond issues is
being waged by the Investment
Bankers Association of America, a
national organization composed Of
a large percentage Of the issuing
houses, distributors and dealers in
investment securities.
This organization, which has &C
complished much in elevating the
general ethics of the investment
business, supporting wise legislation
and suppressing fraudulent adver-
Using and promotions, is doing it's
best to discourage the breaking Of
the agreements between the invest
n,ent dealers.
Banks and trust companies are
interested not only in the security
behind the bonds they buy, but
also the stability of the issue and
it's narketability. The desirability
of a bond as bank investment de-
ponds largely upon how well the
issue is placed in the hands Of true
Investors on fair and equitable
terms.
The distribution of new issues is
effected through syndicates or sell

throughout the country who enter
into an agreement by which they
obligate themselves to buy q GER
tain number of the bonds and to
offer them for sale only at a given
price, simultaneously, at specified
time.
Some Of the means of breaking
the agreements against which the
association Is fighting are:
Through price cutting, whereby
some dealers endeavor TO quickly
relieve themselves Of their commit
ment.
Through, taking in trade other
securities above their true market
value, which is but another form Of
price cutting.
Exchanging unlisted for listed
numbers to cover UP resale Of like

ket.
The solicitation OF orders on ad-
vance and incomplete information,
In the hope Of making sales at the
expense Of the other houses that
live strictly up to their agreements.
