NEW YORK, February 6.-The mar

them of the specially type. Inter

be holding out for.

was selling Friday morning. Most
of the discussion about this stock

Tire Stocks Improve.
Whatever unfavorable effect had
been ocCaSioned by the cut in tire
prices was quickly over. United States
Rubber was up over points from its
Friday low. Kelly Springfield con
tinued its advance and there was some
activity at higher prices in Ajax. The
advance in Goodrich, Interrupted by
the tire cut, was resumed.
Merger reports accompanied the
rise in American Hide and Leather
preferred. The Central Leather issues
were also higher and so was Endicott
Johnson. The jump in Savage Arms
was ascribed to efforts by certain in
terestS to secure control. United States
Steel hung fire all through the two
hour session and the same was true
of the copperS and nearly all the rails.

Everyone is preparing for the

$ ahead OF us. Ammunition in the
form Sof coal is a necessary provt'
sion and so is warm clothing to for
tify one against the onslaughts OF
the enemy. but equally essential is
to turn every home into a fort
that will resist the strongest raids
of cold weather. One of the most
effective allies in this campaign is
Insulating lumber made from cane
fibre, which can be utilized in a
number of ways to make the house
warm and weather-tight.
LEAKAGE Is FACTOR
The most important defensive
measure is to stop heat leakage.
Piling on the fuel, whether it be
coal oil. wood or gas. is a hopeless
undertaking If traitors in the forms
Ofleaks. cracks and imperfect joints
stationed at strategic points, are
giving you away to the enemy every
day and every hour. In this case
you cannot hope to get the most
heat out of your fuel All you can
do is to generate it a bit faster
than 1t Is allowed to escape out
doors.
This il one occasion when one
starts at the top and works down.
The attic calls for the most atten-
ton for the reason that heat rises
70 the top of the house and escapes
through the roof. Heating engi-
neers have computed that about SO
per cent of the heat generated in
q house is lost this way. warming
space outdoors equal to four times
the cubic contents Of the house.
A simple solution is to seal the
Fafters, taking special precautions
90 close the spaces where the raft.
ers meet the side walls. The in
aulating lumber referred to comes
In large boards which are nailed
directly TO the under side OF the
raftefs. In a great many houses
this practically amounts to turning
the attic into an extra room or
two.
BY running up a fIue, or putting
in an electric heater or similar de-
vice, the attic may now be utilized
In q variety of ways-as a study,
play-room, gymnasium maids room
or the family billiard hall. and of
course, as an ideal storage room.
The insulating lumber, in addition
to checking the escape of heat,
takes the place Of lath as a plaster
base or makes a very attractive in.
terror finish If left untreated.
Where the attic is not to be used
as an additional room, insulating
lumber may be laid on the floor
of the attic instead of mailing to
the rafters and side walls with pro-
portionate saving in heat In ex.
freme climates. a double layer of
this ceIotex is used.

Calculation Of Size
of Statue Of Apollo

The famous problem concerning the
size of the colossal statue Of Apollo on
the island of Delos, which has wor-
ried SO many savants, has finally been
solved
We are familiar with the Delos
Apollo only in miniature, as represent
ed on the Attic tetradrachm, an an
cient Greek coin, where the god Is
shown holding the three Graces In his
right hand.
At recent meeting of the academy
of inscriptions Theodore Reinach an
nounced that he had calculated, with
the aid of history as well as mathe-
matics, the size of Apollo and the
three Graces. This archaic colossus at
Delos was the masterpiece, In gilded
wood, of the sculptors Tectaois and
Angelion who fiourished between $50
and $50 B. G.
The three Graces, which we're not
grouped, but separated and erect, bore.
respectively, the zyther, the double
flute and the pipes of Pan. They stood
in the palm Of Apollo's right hand In
his left hand he carried bow. The
colossus and Its three statues were
destroyed by fire.
With the assistance of a Delian In
scription which mentioned the weight
of the gold crowns designed for the
god and the Graces, NJ Reinach esti-
mated the relative heights Of the fig
ures as eight meters for the Apollo
and one meter eighty centimeters for
each of the Graces.-From LIE Figaro
Hebdomadaire Paris Translated for
the Kansas City Star.

Well, we are facing new kind OF

Conper,safion

The secret of being agreeable in
conversation has been described as
being honorable to the ideas of 9TH
ers. There are people who evidently
only half listen to you because they
are considering, even while you speak,
with what fine words, what wealth of
wit, they will reply, and they begin
to speak almost before your sentence
has died upon your lips. These peo-
pie may be brilliant, witty, dazzling,
but never can they be agreeable. You
do not love to talk to them. You feel
that they are impatient for their turn
to come, and that they have no hos
pitality toward your thoughts, none
of that gentle friendliness which asks
your idea and makes much Of 1t.

Idea of Inferiority
Not at All Uncommon

The feeling Of inferiority is an ex-
perience so nearly universal that 1t
cannot be considered abnormal or evil
dence Of disease, declares a writer In
Hygeia Magazine Most of us have had
this feeling at some time In our lives,
such as when making speech, under
taking new job, or taking prominent
part In some social function. The
stammering, trembling, palpitation and
emptiness Of mind which comes at be-
ing called on to face new situation
are familiar to all of us.
However, by establishing habits of
courage and self-reliance and by learn
ing to attend to the matter In hand
rather than to our feelings, most Of. us
have been able to overcome these diff
ficulties. If these feelings Of inability
to meet the situation are not faced
frankly and overcome, one establishes
habit of fear. Then the sense OF
failure and the feelings of inferiority
become habitual, and ones lot will be
indeed unhappy.

Burmese Rubies Best

The finest ruby mines are those of
Mogok in Upper Burma. 1t is from
these mines that the pigeon-blood
rubies come. These are considered
very valuable. There are also mines
in the neighboring country Of Siam.
These Siamese rubies are of a browns
ish red. The Burmese rubies bring
from two to ten times as much as
the Siamese rubies. The Burma mines
are now controlled by the Ruby
Mines, Ltd, of London. Among the
largest rubies may be mentioned two
belonging to the king of Bishenpur,
In India, which weighed SON and TN
carats, respectively. The largest ruby
known is one from Tibet, weighing
1900 carats, but it is not Of first
quality.
