ARE HELD DKEH - NEW YOHK. (A I"') Strong ral lies in the markets, declaration of nu merous new , or increased dividends and encouraging Industrial news havt featured the past week In business and finance. Hharp recoveries In foreign ex- i change on the averting of a brak be- tween Franco and England were the more spectacular events. Sterling rull lled about 111 cents and similar gains were recorded by the other leading currencies. The general impression was that the 'producing decline had been greatly overdone and had been due both to speculative selling for the decline and to the deferring of buying be Importers, When the turn came these mleresls showed great eagerness to cover their requirements. . The better turn In the foreign situ ation and the accompanying rally in tho exchanges had Its effect on the other markelB. Short lines which had 'breri extended on tho stock exchange towjxrrt the close of the previous week wre withdrawn and even wheat im nroved moderately. In the market for the latter commodity, however, responsive buying was not sufficiently strong to hold the gain, speculative interest In the commodity being small. Cotton Prices Higher. ' Qotton mennwhilc continued its ad vance, and reached new high prices for the crop. The government gin ning report which was published on Vedncsduy was not quite as bullish as iad been anticipated but neverthe less wa interpreted as indicating that the total yield will be materially be low 10,000.000 bales. In the opin ion of most observers this makes some curtailment of mill operations inevitable before the end of the crop year. With the futures in the neigh borhood of 35 cents considerable profit taking naturally appeared. This wit? established however andhe trade remained bullish. : Considerable attention was given to developments in the pig Iron market. The extensive inquiries of the week (before developed into the largest buy ing 'movement since the early spring. Orders for over 600.000 tons were placed and since prices have declined far enough to be below the cost of production for a large proportion of the. merchant furnaces, it was felt that the market has reached alurn. Steel Values Firm. No similar buying movement devel oped In steel products and activity in slightly smaller scale. Prices, how ever, remained firm nnd producer showed confidence in their position, being encouruged by reports of good prospects In the building Industry be expectations of renewed buying by the railroads and by continued optimism urn on g the automobile man u fact m rrs. Hall mills were reported to bp fully booked to the middle of next year. Confirmation of the theory that money will remain easy was found in New York Says Brushed Alpaca EVEN THOSE PERSONS who dislike cold weather are recon ciled to it when they we the smart, warm clothes that are presented for selection. And when the terms "sma rt" and "warm" a re expressed, one instinctively thinks of knitted outer I garments, and never have they pos sessed more chic and chaude than this season. j One of the most attractive knitted i garments offered for the cold weather season is the brushed alpaca coat. .Some of these coats are shaggier than ' others, but they are all most inviting, ! One of the strongest factors in their ' favor is their quality of possessing ! warmth without weight. They are ab- I solute ly the most comfortable affairs, j and one never has the sensation of be ing burdened with a heavy coat. j Many of them have large envelop- ing collars which may he fastened high at the throat, having the ap- j pea ranee of the bolster collars one I eees on fur coats. The sleeves are j often finished with cuffs that turn back, : ensuring added warmth at the wrists where it is so necessary. Usually these mats arc cut along simple straight ; lines, like a box coat, and they have ' a fondness for fastening a bit over at , the side with novelty or plain bone J buttons. There are no bard ?nd fast rules concerning the length of these brushed coats, some reaching nearly to the . knees, while others in more youthful, swagger manner, just escape being finger-tip in length. One of the tell ing features of these brushed coats lies in the fact that they may be worn be neath the fur coat in the very coldest weather, when it seems as if nothing wouM keep one wunn, and comfort is assured. Some of- these mod r Is are as gay as gay can be, hut others choose the wood-browns and greens, with per haps collars and cuffs contrasting. An interesting combination that is particularly appropriate for autumn wear is produced in a rich brick red, 1 with smart black collar and cuffs. j CcjyrigAl by Fiftk Avtnut Faihiont Servitt. r-r,r ATerrifying Spud, j " This, Indies and gentlemen. , the only living specimen of the great What ls it.

(INS) Soino (U-clch'clly nt-w ilKht arc thrown on lovo by Ar nold Hennctt In his new play, "Don Juan dc .Maraiia." "Don Juan tie Marana' and Us wisdom are not for the. minds of tho many, however, for tho play ban been privately printed for mihscrlbers only. Some of liennett's views of love aro interesting enough, however, for gen eral circulation. Quotations from his play follows: "Wvnlth exists to nourish love, for lovo without abundance is pitiful." "Kach man seeks an Ideal and each woman Is ono. And when they find each other that is love." "Passion is beyond the will and be yond reason. Nobody knows nnd no body ever will know, bow it Is born or bow' it dies. It Is part of the In comprehensible beauty and mysterj of fate." "I prefer a heretic to a sentimental ist. For your sentimentalist ono wo man is never enough--hls heart is loo large." "I.ovo Is not a pleasure. It Is a science." 'A man Is and must bo in lovo with snso of beauty and baffles his bis sense of beauty and baffles his deslro to understand her and no longer." "Tho folly of men Is to be literal. They invariably answer tho questions which are put to them Instead of tho questions which are not put to them. They have no delicacy. I.ove Is not tho point. I am the point. And when asked you what yon bad discovered nbout love I naturally wanted to know what you bad discovered about me." "l.ovo is tyrannic and terrible, but th.-re Is nothing nobler than Us kind liness." . Astoria .Schools f'o.xiuoiMilitnn. ASTORIA, Or.

This is said to be the first advertisement. Today, every manufacturer who is really proud of his product, marks it, that all may know and identify his work. Then, by advertising, he throws on both product and mark the search-light of public attention. Only good goods, fairly priced, can flourish in the light' of advertising. The goods must be as advertised. Oth erwise, they lose caste in the buyer's mind. And no business can thrive under the weight of public con demnation, s . v , i 1 .13 1 S 1 f 1 That is why a merchant or manufacturer places the reputation of his business at stake every time he adver tises. 'He spends his money to invite your consideration of his wares, and then, perforce, must lwivc the final decision to you. . ; U -StTOSS That is why it pays to buy advertised goods. f HEAD THE ADVERTISEMENTS til: i K !
