MONEY B PLENTIFUL
A RUSH OF FUNDS BACK INTO RE
SERVE BANKS.
IHTEflEST RATES CUT DOWN
Indications Seeme to Be That There
Is Really More Money in Sight
Than' Is Needed.'
New York The feature of the fin
ancial section last week was the con
tinued rush of funds back into the re
serve deposits of banns. The return
Ingt flood of money to reserves was
perceptible in the foreign money cen
ters as well as here and as effective
In forcing down official discount rates
of the Bank of England, the Bank of
France and the Imperial Bank of Ger
many, and the -open market rates in
all markets. Notwithstanding this de
cline in the attraction for money
abroad the price has risen strongly
toward the rate at which exports of
gold would be profitable. The grow
ing redundancy of our own. money
market has been responsible for this
action.
Supplies have' pressed upon the
New York loan market with increas
ing urgency, carrying the call loan
rate down to almost nominal figures
and reducing the interest rates on
time loans to. figures lower than were
enjoyed at any time last year. The
remaining issue of New York clearing
house loan certificates, has as a con
sequence been going into rapid retire
ment The rapid easing oi the money
market has not been affected by the
notice of withdrawal of $10,000,000 of
government deposits from New York
banks, partly because of the large cur.
rent deficit in the government rev
enues, but also by reason of the ac
cumulation of funds .being more rapid
than the demand to take them up.
This is made manifest by the heavy
tide of bank notes out of the circula
tion of the country, reflected in the
current redemption of these issues at
the United States treasury, and by
the growing movement on the part of
the banks to retire them by means of
deposit of lawful money with the
United States treasury. The inferences
are plain that the heavy imports of
$100,000,000 of foreign gold and the
rapid issue of over fw.OOO.OOO national
bank notes which followed the runs
on the banks last fall, to say nothing
of the various emergency issues of
clearing house certificates, are now
proving redundant in the country's
circulation. Such a result is the in
variable sequence of financial panic as
soon as xormal conditions of confi
dence in the banks begin to reestab
lish themselves.

There is a certain man living not
far from New York whose temper is
not of the longest and- when he feels
that his rage' is justifiable he is very
apt to indulge in fluent versatile and
varied profanity.
And it is when using the telephone
that this talent of his is seen and
heard at its maximum of speed and
endurance. Central has but to say
"Wire busy now," or, "Doesn't an
swer." to evoke a flood of language.
One day he had been having an un
usually stormy session, and did not
notice that his two-year-old son was
sitting in a corner of the room, his
face rapt and absorbed. A few hours
later the child's mother came in' and
was horrified beyond words to hear
her baby giving voice to a stream of
expletives, some of which began with
a very large capital D the rest with
a variety of letters quite unmention
able in this connection. She descended
upon him in righteous wrath.
"Don't you ever let me hear you
use such words again," she said in no
uncertain tones.
"Why, mother," expostulated the
baby in an injured voice. "I'm tele
phoning!" " ,

COMPLAINTS MANY AND VARIED.
Complete Harmony Had to Obtain
in Organizations.
"All clubs," said the secretary, "keep
complaint books, and some of the com
plaints set down in them are funny.
In our book yesterday a member com
plained that the hot water was al
ways cold, and moreover, there never
was any.'
"A novelist last week had the nerve
to complain that his last new novel
hadn't been added to the club library.
"Young swells sometimes complain
about the club wines and cigarettes
and cigars in order to introduce brands
that they are touting for on the sly.
"Sometimes anonymous scandal soils
the complaint book's pages. Thus, last
year, appeared this entry about a very
popular member:
"Maj. Hawkins is flirting with too
many of our wives. By the way, he
still owes that tenner he knows to
whom.'"
Neatly Put.
Homer Folks, the secretary of the
State Charity, Aid society of Xew
York, referred in a recent address to
the awkwardness that charity work
ers feel in making public appeals for
funds.
"And few charity workers." Mr.
Folks added, "can carry off that awk

CUSS' FOOD'
They Thrive en Grase-Nuts.
Healthy babies doa't cry1 and the
well-nourished baby that is fed on
Grape-Nuts is never a crying baby.
Many babies who cannot take any
other food relish the perfect food.
Grape-Nuts, and get well.
"My little baby was given up by
three doctors who said that the con
densed milk on which I fed her had
ruined the child's stomach. One of
the doctors told me that the only
thing to do would be to try Grape
Nuts, so Z got some and prepared it as
follows: X soaked V tablespoonfuls
In one pint of cold water for half an
hour,, then I strained off the liquid and
mixed 12 teaspoonfuls of this strained
Grape-Nuts juice with six teaspoonfuls
of rich milk, put in a pinch of salt'
'and a little sugar, warmed it and gave
it to baby every two hours.
"In this simple, easy way I saved
baby's life and have built her up to a
strong healthy child, rosy and laugh
ing. The food must certainly be per
fect to have such a wonderful effect as
this. 1 can truthfully say I think it
is the best food in the world to raise
delicate babies on, and is also a deli
cious healthful food for grown-ups as
we have discovered in our family."
Grape-Nuts Is equally valuable to
the strong, healthy man or woman. It
stands for the true theory of health.

AN ADVERTISING TRICK
WESTERN FARMERS.
FOR
Real Estate "Agents" Go After
Men with Land -for Sale and
Reap Rich Harvest
t
A smooth scheme for separating
farmers from their money has been
worked with' much success in South
uuKuia.. ad. ouy graiter calls on a
farmer and makes a bid for bis land.
The figures are absurdly low at first,
but by degrees are raised as hteh as
$60 an acre, and the farmer consents.
Then the visitor explains that he is
only an agent, but that he can sell the
land at the price named if the owner
will agree to pay for advertising at
the rate of fifty cents an acre. The
"agent" promises orally that the ad
vertising money will not be payable
until the land is sold, but this stipula
tion is not contained in a contract
that the farmer signs.
In a few days he receives a copy of
an ad and not over-courteous demand
for money. It is said that- twenty-
two agriculturists were caught with
this bait in Brown County and that
one of them gave up $329. Others de
clare hotly that they will not pay but

Collecting in New Hampshire.
A New Hampshire man tells of a
tight-fisted man of affairs in a town
of that state, who until recently had
never been observed to take aa inter
est la church matters. Suddenly, how
ever, he became a regular attendant
at divine service, greatly to the
astonishment of his fellow towns
men. "What do you think of the case of
old Ketch um?" said one of the busi
ness men of the place to a friend. "Is
it true that he has got religion?"
"Well, hardly," replied the other.
"The fact is, it's entirely a matter of
business with him. I am in a posi
tion to know that about a year ago he
loaned the pastor $50. which the lat
ter was unable to pay. So there re
mained nothing for Ketchum but to
take it out in pew rent." Sunday

EXPLAINED.
"1 have called," said the captious
critic, "to find out what reason yon
can give for representing the New

"That is done." responded the art
editor, "because the year does not get
its close until the 31st of December."

"Say, George." he said, "why does
the engine always let off such a heart

George shook his head sadly.
"Ah," said he, "it was here that the

wife."
