WaN Street Briefs

New York. Jan. : @-Money rates are expected to play an important part in this weeks stock market. Last week the call rate dropped from IF to 6 per cent in response to the return flow of January divi- dend and interest payments which created a temporary surplus of funds here. A slight stiffening in call rates would normally be expected this week but this may be accen- tuated by the recent large increase in brokers loans.
 In the last three weeks, more than 300 stocks have created new high records, while slightly more than 100 have sunk to their lowest prices since 1927. or longer.
 Stockholders of the Pennsylvania railroad totaled 155.O67 on Decem- Der 1, gain of 6S over the preced- ing month and a new high record.

symptoms arise in workers due to associated or due to infectious or other causes.
 There are many diseases which are associated with d lessening of the number of white cells in the blood. Among the many conditions which may produce this symptom is chronic poisoning with benzene or, as it is often called, benzol. In 1922 benzol was beginning to be widely used in many industrial processes. At that time it's hazards were realized and it was recom- mended that other substances be substituted for it whenever DOS sible.
 Since that time there has been a steady decrease in the amount of benzol used in some industries, but on the whole the production of this substance has risen from more than CS,000,000 to 115, 5,O00,000 gallons per year and the consumption in the United States has risen from co., 00Q,000 gallons per year to almost o0,000,0OO gallons.
 Benzene has caused poisoning in the millinery trade. where 1t is used as a constituent of rubber cements i; in the japanning trade, where it is mixed with enamels, and to a tre- mendous extent in the rubber in- duStry. Some people are much more sensitive to benzene than are others. They respond to inhalation of the substance with serious symp- toms, with destruction Of the blood cells, with eruptions and with hem- McCord suggests the possibility that Eenzene may be associated with some other chemical in rubber manufacturing and that the combi- nation may be exceedingly toxic since there are more records of poisoning by benzol in that indus try than in any other.
 Recently an inrectious disease known as agranulocytosis has been confused on several occasions with henzene poisoning. In both condi- tions there may be inflammations of the gums, bleeding under the sikn, a decrease in the white blood cells, jaundice and a lessened num- Der or the red blood cells. Of course, One has to show that the sick person has actually been ex- posed to henzene before bcnzcne poisoning can be diagnosed

It was a sick little dog who lay in Farmer Browns dooryard while Bowser gravely looked on. He was sick to his stomach-very sick.
 Does your mouth taste bad" in quired Bowser gravely.
 The little dog locked mournfully up at Bowser. Tt tastes awful, simply awful" said he. Never in all my life has my mouth tasted as it does now"
 T thought it would' said Bow ser, holding his head. T thought it would. That's why I warned you to leave Old Mr. Toad alone"
 The little dog looked as if he didn't quite understand. What he demanded, "did Old MT. Toad have to do with it?"
 Everything replied Bowser. He had everything to do with it.
 The little dog blinked. T don't understand" said he.
 You'll learn," replied Bowser, If you bite many more toads.'
 I'll never touch another toad as long as I live if it's going to make me feel like this" declared the lit tie dog mournfully. But I don't understand it now. Did that toad do something to me?"
 Bowser chuckled. 'It looks to me as if he did considerable to you," he replied.
 But how?" demanded the little dog.
 Well, it was this way" replied Bowser. When you bit him you hurt him. He thought it was about time to give you a lesson. He has a little poison in his skin. It Is most ly up near his head. It isn't strong enough to kill anybody. It won't do any one any real harm, but 1t makes any one sick who gets it in

his mouth.''
 'I'H say it does" said the lit tie dog.
 T learned my lesson the same way you are learning yours" said Bowser the Hound. Tt was when I was young and no one could tell me anything. I grabbed a toad just the way you did and I have never touched one since"
 'I'll never touch another" said the little dog
 Bowser grinned. No, I don't be- lieve you ever will" said he. And it's a good thing. Toads are very useful people. Old MT Toad and I are very good friends. I don't know of any one who minds his own bust ness like Old Mr. Toad does. All he asks is to be let alone. Leave him alone and he will never bother you in any way. Farmer Browns Boy is very fond of Old MT. Toad.
 'Who is Farmer Browns Boy?" asked the little dog, looking up with | interest.
 He is my master" replied Bowser the Hound. You will like him.
 T wonder if he'll let me stay" said the little dog wistfully."
 T wouldn't be a bit surprised" said Bowser the Hound. Here he comes now" The little dog looked up and sure enough there was Farmer Browns Boy coming up the Long Lane from the cornfield He had a ! hoe over one shoulder and was whistling.
