INDUSTRIALS UP SHARPLY TODAY NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Industrial stocks responded enthusiastically to foreign and domestic outlook in the first session of the new week. Copper and shipping stocks were the leaders in the next rally in stock prices at the opening of the market, but speculative interest soon spread to other groups, among them the oils which long have needed some special stimulus to force them out of the narrow rut they have occupied for a few months. The week-end developments in London were encouraging to those who are interested particularly in the constructive side of the market. The signing of the agreement by the international conference is believed to be the beginning of the end of turmoil in Europe and that in turn should usher a season of more active business in foreign markets. U. S. Steel was again the leader in the investment industrial stocks, its rise to a new high for the year at 111 being the signal for a burst of strength in practically every section of the list. The large volume of steel common traded in today was mostly at prices above 110, that is, in excess of the best previous price record of the year to date. A horizontal advance in the copper stocks brot the representative stocks in the group to the highest price level for the current movement, in some cases to the highest of the year. American Smelter sold up to 75; United States Smelter to 34; Anaconda 40; Inspiration 24; Cerro de Pasco at 49. Firmness in the copper metal market with steady increase in prices from 12½ to 13¾ a pound has been an important factor in the rise of the copper shares. Northwest and Western railroads came in for the most attention today, both in the stock and bond markets. Union Pacific at the head of the investment rails, forged ahead to a new high at weather conditions and grains were generally weak. Stock sales today 1,107,909 shares; bonds $12,170,000.

Brown went upstairs and fouled Mrs. Brown in a bedroom close with her head bent over an oak trunk. "Well, what on earth are you trying to dig up out of that trunk?" Brown demanded. "Oh, Dick," the Mrs. answered do you remember where I put that picture of Aunt Alice?" Dick thought over the matter for a moment. Then: "Is she coming to see again?"

There are counties in Ohio that are so rich they cannot finance their own schools. This seemingly paradoxical situation is revealed in a recent survey. In a certain township school district there is a tax duplicate aggregating $1,307,200. In the township, 1,022 pupils are enrolled. It is a mining district. The property valuation averages only $1,275 for each pupil. In an adjoining township, whose inhabitants, for the most part are devoted to agricultural pursuits, there are only 142 children and an aggregate tax duplicate of $1,011,640. The property valuation in this township averages $7,142, for each enrolled child. In the mining township the unmined coal is listed for taxation purposes at practically nothing. However, a steady stream of wealth is moving from this township—in the form of mined coal—to other parts of the State, where it swells tax duplicates. The adjoining agricultural township not only must provide for its own schools, but under the county-wide school tax levy of 2.65 mills must aid in educating children in the mining township. All these southern and south-eastern Ohio counties receive financial aid from the State for their schools. It was pointed out. Establishment of a tonnage tax has been suggested as one means of solving the financial problems of this mining counties in Ohio.

WIFE'S DILEMMA Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a young married woman and have a darling boy 14 months old and a girl three years old. Every one says I am a wonderful housekeeper. I do all my own baking, cooking, sewing, washing and ironing, and also do other washings to help out. I have $10 to run for groceries for two weeks and you know with everything so high I manage rather well for four of us. My husband says he doesn't care for me as he did and I have grown to hate him. He watches when I undress for bed and when he thinks I am asleep he hides my underwear and every morning it is hunt for my things. I can't understand the things he does. We have been married five years and just the last year he has acted this way. He wants me to pack my things and go and take the baby with me and let him have the girl, but I would rather go and leave them both with him. He would take them home to his mother and I know they would have a good home and be well cared for. Oh, how I love my babies and how I hate him! I just want to scream every time he comes near me. He often beats me and I have carried marks for weeks from him. Do you think if I left him with the children he would see his mistake? I don't think I could ever live with him again if I should go. His mother told him lies about me last winter and he believes her rather than me and always throws them at me. I have always been a good girl and he surely thought so at one time. Please tell me what to do. This is making a nervous wreck of me and I can't endure this way of living much longer. WORRIED 23. It is difficult to understand how you could love your children with all your heart and be willing to leave them with a man you hate and his mother who has lied about you. Consult a lawyer and see what can be done to get a other boys, too, and did not depend on his friendship so much he would probably have a far better time with you. Say nothing when your friends tease you about the boy. Also stop talking about him to your friends, because what you say will be carried back, perhaps not too truthfully. MRS. J. E.—I cannot give you the address. Dear Mrs. Thompson: Do you think vanishing cream causes growth of hair on the face? ANXIOUSLY WAITING. Vanishing cream is no more apt to cause a growth of hair on the face than any other cream. Good creams of both kinds are guaranteed not to grow hair. Ask your druggist to recommend something for your use. F. H. N.—Even if your hostess has placed you beside your worst enemy, you must talk to her enough to diguise the fact that she is distasteful to you. ANXIOUS TO PLEASE—Surely your friend would not be insulted if you gave her a box of candy to take on the train. That would be a very nice thing to do. I am confident that she appreciated your help in the sewing far more than money in return for her kindness to you. BLUE EYES—If you should meet the boy, speak to him and you will probably find that he will speak at the same time you do. In case he talks to you, do not mention the unanswered letter, but be friendly as if nothing had happened. It would not pay to let him think you were too deeply hurt by his neglect to even speak.
