PARIS ART BALL RISQUE AS EVER PARIS, June 18.—The annual Quatz art ball and revel of the Beaux Arts students—a traditional affair among Parisian Bohemians—came to an end at daybreak today, after a few of the male celebrants had cooled their feverish brows by jumping into the Seine river, from a bridge which spans the stream in front of the chamber of deputies. The calendar was turned back 21 centuries to give a Phoenician vetted to the scene. Luna Park danced half, where the revel took place, was decorated to represent the ancient city of Tyre. Scores of boat prows and pier heads had been erected to give the appearance of the busy harbor front of the great Phoenician trading port. There were mammoth papermache replicas of the Phoenician gods. But the gods got scant attention after the ceremonies began at 10 o'clock. A few lucky Americans gained entrance including Pearl White, the moving picture actress, who dressed in an abbreviated black and gold costume with her legs bare, danced with the students. Dancing was made somewhat difficult owing to the great number of champagne bottles which littered the floor, along with wigs and discarded costumes. Attention was divided between the dancers and the beautiful girls who posed in the nude as statues. Sources for Phoenician historical material were scarce, so the students had to fill a great many empty spaces with those living statues. Each ship prow was filled with white, black and brown "female slaves" whose lithe bodies swayed to the American jazz music. If the ball did not throw any additional light upon the era of the Phoenicians, it did reveal that brunettes are still in high favor in Paris. A prize of 25 bottles of chamomile market absorbs realizing sales NEW YORK, June 18.—Ability to absorb realizing sales without detriment to the price structure was perhaps the most significant feature of the stock market today. Early dealings were marked by hesitating tendencies, rather than a continuation of the receding movement, which was evident at the previous close. In anticipation of additional profit taking, professional operators exerted pressure against certain stocks, notably the oils, but barring isolated cazes, these stocks held well and before the session was an hour old a stable price level was reached. Near noon, values hardened perceptibly under the influence of resumption of buying by various pools. The number of the issues involved increased as the session progressed, but bullish operations were less aggressive than last week being marked by a certain degree of caution. Railroad shares resumed their position of leadership buying power being concentrated in Nickelplate, Chempenake and Ohio Southern Pacific and Pittsburg & West Virginia. Tobacco retained a prominent position in the industrial group, but in the afternoon speculative honors were shared by the copers and other metal shares and stocks with Chicago sponsorship, like Stewart-Warner, Boone Woolen and the Yellow Cabs. Money continued easy, call money ruling at 2%. Cotton and grains turned upward after the lunch hour. Bonds were firm. Foreign exchange developed strength after initial irregularity. Scattered profit taking in the final hour caused slight recessions. A note of confidence ran through the dealings, which was translated its fresh buying just before the finish of such popular issues as Colorado Fuel & Iron, General Asphalt and United Drug. An airplane view of the U. S. S. M. A rigid investigation of responsibility for the explosion on the U. S. S. Mississippi, one of the queen ships of the navy, which cost the lives of 44 men. The Junker who says the Fatherland needs a helm doubtless means a Wilhelm,—Youngstown (O.) Vindicator. Sources for Phoenician historical material were scarce, so the students had to fill a great many empty spaces with those living statues. Each ship prow was filled with white, black and brown "female slaves" whose little bodies swayed to the American jazz music. If the ball did not throw any additional light upon the era of the Phoenicians, it did reveal that brunettes are still in high favor in Paris. A prize of 25 bottles of champagne was offered for the most perfect female form. A stalineque brunette entered the field against three stunning blondes. The brunette was acclaimed winner. One attraction was the competition among the Atellers (studios) for the most risque "grunt". These competitions left nothing to the imagination. Many persons were turned away at the doors, including American tourists who had heard of the ball and were anxious to see if it was true. Some outsiders obtained admiration by posing as contestants but were put out by husky bouncers aided by police. Just before daybreak the revelers set out for the latin quarter. On the way four American architectural students contended that the traditional custom of bathing in the house fountain at the Place De La Concorde was too tame, so they selected the Seine for a bathing place and swam the river just as the sun came up. RRUNETT BUYS HOME Another "Young better-built home" has been sold to Guy O. Brunett of the First National Bank. It will be built on his lot near the park on No. Clementine-st. The sale was made thru Warren H. Mercer of the Stewart Realty Co., and involved about $6,000. Locke & McAuley The Home Money continued easy, call money ruling at 2%.

OPERATED ON FOR APPENDICITIS FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS TO BE ANNOUNCED LATER Many times, no doubt you have seen the above headline in your newspaper. Very often it has told of some friend suddenly stricken with dread appendicitis. The newspapers, however, neglect to state that appendicitis is usually preceded by stomach trouble. They don't tell you that the afflicted person suffered frequent attacks of heartburn long before he went to the hospital. While heartburn is not always a sign of an inflamed appendix, it is always a warning that something is wrong. In many cases it results from indigestion, which is one of the predisposing causes of appendicitis. If you suffer from a burning, gnawing sensation in the stomach, excessive gas, sour stomach, nausea or other distress after eating, go at once and obtain a bottle of Smith Bros.' M. A. C. the guaranteed stomach treatment. This pleasant, harmless liquid rids the stomach of catarrhal mucus, always inflammation, helps digestion and cleanses the bowels of poisonous waste matter. Price $1.25. Money back if the first bottle does not relieve. Heying Pharmacy will supply you. (Mail orders accepted.) THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF.
