If we drop an egg, the inside of which is a viscuous semi-liquid sub stance, and a potato a firm, bard vegetable product into the same Kettle of boiling water, everyone knows what will happen. The white and yolk of the egg will harden and the potato will get soft and mealy. The reason for this apparent phenomenon lies in the difference of the structure of the two objects. The potato contains a large amount of starch, which absorbs the water, and, aided by the action of the heat, finally bursts the jacket. The ex panding of the starchy articles coupled with other' chemical re actions, results in the softening of the fiber. . ' . , , An egg, on the other hand, is lack ing in starch. One of its principal ingredients is albumin, which, when heated to the temperature of boiling water, becomes a solid, just as would . the albumin in our own blood which is closely allied to the white of an egg. It is owing to the difference in chemical construction, therefore, that an egg is an exception to the general rule that boiling will soften things or make them tender. , Bee Want Ads Are Best Business , . . ......

PROLOG3 1 u DEPARTMENT STORE 24th and O Streets WCiTt vfcrf Crtta Trading Stamp Market, Financial and Industrial News of the Day Financial SlbcNttaHork Sinus. By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES. New York, Jan. 12. It was evi dence of the wholesome change which has come in the financial com munity's mental attitude since the turn of the year, that today's moder ate reaction on the stock market in sterling exchange rates and Liberty bonds, should have been accepted as a normal incident. In particular, the high "borrowing premiums" on cer tain speculative industrial shares and the excited bidding up of their prices came pretty much to an end. It could not have continued legi timately much longer, but the possi ble danger has existed that the in cidents of the two first days of the week might have tempted other speculative groups to continue forc ing up such stocks, with the idea of arousing the public' s'pculative appetite. This is clearly no time for anything of the sort and Wall street itself was relieved when it found that the experiment was not being tried. General Advances. Today's stock market was by no means weak. Notably la the low priced railway shares and In o. number of industrials, there were respectable advances. The de cline of 4 points Id Crucible Steel, after Its 22-point rise In the two days when the "boar crowd" wore struggling out of the trap which they had set for them selves, was a natural reaction; so also were the declines In other Industrial stocks whose recent advances had been some what violent. The bond market, meantime, although displaying again some of the. Irregularity which has been a dally experience this month, continued on the whole to reflect a steady and confident demand, both for numerous railway bonds and for bonds of foreign governments and cities. It will be particularly Interesting to see how this general investment market will be affect ed by the large now borrowings of for eign governments which are impendiutr. Experience does not Indicate that such new Issues will depress an existing market If the supply of available Investment cap ital is abundant and tbe attitude of in vestors favorable. Both conditions are apt to be promoted and not retarded by a season of financial and commercial liquidation; always provided that the un derlying state of affairs Is sound. Exchange Closes Strong. Sterling exchange had lost at one time today nearly 6 cent out of the 24-oent gain, which bad been scored since the year began, but it closed well above the day's lowest. On the Stock Exchange, tho call money rate held at 6 and 7 per cent again, but, as on Tuesday, offerings at a lower rate were made through money brokers. A 4 per cent rate was quoted In this way today; also a lower rata than the generally accepted quotations on time loans. The prospect of a general and positive lowering of money rates possibly depends on the attitude of the federal reserve. It cannot be overlooked that the New York reserve bank's rate for redlscounting com mercial paper still holds at 7 per cent, the high record rate to which tt was ad vanced on the 29th of last May and that even for loans secured by Liberty bonds, tho rediscount charge Is 6 per cent. Under absolutely normal circumstances rates at a central bank here or In Europe, should be slightly below the open market. Discount rates of tho London Joint stock banks have, for several weeks, been a fraction below the Bank of England's of ficial 7 per cent minimum, but we saw last week how quickly the first of Janu ary decline in Lombard street quotations was checked and reversed by the un changing attitude of the bank. In that case It was plain enogh that the Bank of England had no Intention of re ducing the' cost of money, and thereby Increasing the inducement for use of cred Ir. when its own rate of reserve to deposit was only 8.7 per cent and when Us IU per cent ratio of tbe week before was the lowest of the whole wr period.

MICHAELS. Cbirago Tribune-Omaha llee Leased Vlre Chicago, Jan, 12. Higher prices for wheat imparted strength to other grains today, with a little more animation to trading and a close at gains of 4c in wheat, jc to jfcc in corn, He to Jc in oats, 2c to 2c in rye and 2c in barley. Foreign buying of wheat continued good, although millers and export ers competed in the different mar kets, especially in the southwest, for the light offerings, resulting in an ad vance to the best prices in over two months and a close at c to He of the top. At the top March was $1.82J4 and May $1.74. Prices dipped early,, as local operators were bearish for a time. At no time was the markW without good support from strong intersts. The big buying that made the highest prices was attributed to leading eastern traders, who put out their line last week. Cash houses were good buyers against export sales, which aggre gated 500,000 bushels, mostly at the gulf to Germany. Minneapolis millers were after wheat in the Omaha market, with 50,000 bushels bought, and Texas millers were after wheat in Kansas. The advance brought out larger country offerings in the southwest. Sentiment Bullish. Trade sentiment Is more bullish and as S rices advance there Is more confidence ere. At the same time longs who bought some time ago were taking profits. The Argentine tax situation remains unsettled, which is regarded as the main factor In the foreign demand at present. The selling of corn was the most popu lar side early, although price losses were small. An advance of 1H lifted tho marKct out ol tne rut in wnicn it nas been and with wheat higher, there was a larger trade, with tbe close Mo from the ton. May was ud to ?5o at the best. There was covering attributed to New Tork traders with Wagner the leading ouyer. country oirerings were increas ed on the advance and exporters took 200,000 bushels In all positions, Including 100,000 bushels at St. Louis. The price, track Baltimore, waa llo over May. for 10-day shipment and 12c ever for ship ment Thursday. Elevator people were the best buyers of cash corn, part for ship ment and the balance for storage pur- poses, jieceipis were zst cars. Data Advance, Oats dragged earlv. but were airenarth- ened by the advance In other grains and prices moved up He from the low point, with the close about the top. There is little In the market to attract attention. Cash prices were unchanged, with ship ping sales 60,000 bushels. Receipts 61 LIS.

The Manufacturers' Record says: "High wages, full salaries, high prices for farm products, are a thousand times better than low wages, low salaries and low Prices for farm products. Some bankers ana some Business men view things from a different standpoint." The general reports from correspondents of the Price-Current-Grain Renorter. In dicate that the prevalence of hog, cholera is Dclow normal for this season of the year. As to winter wheat, reoorts In dicate that the wintering condition of tho crop is almost entirely "tavorabie," witn the exception of a few localities In Ohio, Indiana. Illinois and Kansas. Harris, Wlnthrop & Co., says- "It is our opinion that the situation does not warrant the bullish enthusiasm that has been aroused in the last few days. Throughout the course of this last bulge In the wheat crop there has been nothing in the news which constituted an unas sailable British argument. At the same time It seems clear that the Improvement in the flour demand is not attaining the proportions hoped for." New York wired Stein-Alstrln & Co.! "Exports will not follow this advance and they are cancelling buying orders. They say the amount or export business does not warrant this strength."
