BUYING RUSH COMES DESPITE ENTENTE REPLY
CHICAGO, Jan. 12. Notwithstanding that the answer of the entente allies to President WlUon'a request for
a statement of peace .terms 'led to
something of a rush to the buying side
ir. the wheat market today, the result
ing upturn in prices did not prore
extraordinary, and there was soon decided reaction.
The advance was met by free selling
irom dujis who nad anticipated the
nature or tn communication and who
were thus in a position to realise
profits. Trading did not attain un
usual volume. Opening prices, which
ranged from to Z higher with May ftt $1.S8 to $1.89 and July at 91.52 to
II. 53, were followed by a decline that
in most cases reached slightly below
yesterday's finish. Corn weakened on account of bear
un crop advices from Argentina. At
n- at, however, the market sympathised
Mia the temnorarv atrenath of wheat
After opening to 94c higher, prices
underwent a sag that much more than
offset all of the gains.
Oats bad. no independent action.
Trading was light. f Provisions rose with hogs. The mar, ket was-also helped upward by purchases of lard for Belgium.

Hsr bright golden hair ttriod tightly about her face, and fear eep Mm eyea twtakis with Jay. Hot vtBg WO. skirt daaced ; tn the hroewe aa ahe swayed. She just loTed to swiag aa much little children do. ' "Dear me," cried Sweet Content "here cornea Mr. Buzz Fun. Now. what U the matter with hlmr Mr. Buss Fun, the blue ottle fly, Who lived on the shores of the Mystery Pool, was coming along, headed straight for our fairy. He was a fniuiy. fat little fellow with a most beautiful waistcoat of brilliant blue. Kis wiags were 'very large and strong, so strong that they had saved him many a time from being eaten by Sally Sly. the big spider. "You'd better make Billy bebave," bussed the fuzzy old gentleman: "he has been teasing the girls most of the afternoon. He is certainly a bully." "Oh, no, Mr. Buss Fuzz." answred our fairy, always ready to defend the children, "he just doesn't think, that is all-' "Well, he ought to be made to think, then." retorted the old gentleman, buszing with indignation. "He teased little Peggy so hard this afternoon that she cried and kept me awake. Somebody ought to take him in hand." If you had heard Mr. Buss Fuss scolding. I am sure that you would have thought that be was cross, but Sweet Content knew that he was only tired from lack of sleep.
la a. shame n Ilkfrs to
tease." she said. "Perhaps I ean show him how mean it is." She clapped her tiny hands for Fluffy, her big white butterfly, as soon as he arrived she climbed on to his back, holding in her hand the magic wand, made , of a moonbeam ray with a diamond star at the end. She picked up the golden spider-web reins and away they flew down into the village and up to Billy's window. Sweet Content , left her butterfly on the window sill, telling him to. wait for her. Then she flashed her tin wand and said: "Wand made of moonbeam ray, ,: Let me have this wish, I pray: ' "I want to find Billy's bed." The room was Immediately filled with brierht little spots of light, so that Sweet Content could see where the little boy lay. She climbed on to his pillow and whispered. Billy awoke and stretched his arms. My, what a funny country he saw. All the houses were as high as. church towers. The grass almost reacted above his head, and he could only see the tops of the trees by leaning way back. "What ha happened?" he asked out loud. "I never knew the trees were so big. This grass is almost like a mighty forestJust then down through the grass came a hand, quite the biggest one he had ever en. He lookef up and saw a titpandous giant, ffo was picked up uud brought out hfto the bright sunshine. That was a relief, anyway; but when he saw the giant he trembled. He had a long black beard and sharp eyes whjch looked wicked. ' He laughed
wnen ae saw tQ,e little boy, trepib
"Please let me dowa." begged Billy, but ; the giant , paid ne attention.; " He took hold of Billy and shook' him. ' Danee,'' he commanded. Billy danced on ' his big hand, and the giant laughed more than ever. Then he took out of his pocket a big Juicy red apple and askeJ BUIy if he. would like to eat it. - Billy said "Tes, thank you." very politely, but Just as he was about to take a bite the -giant Jerked it away, Billy remembered 1 that he had-done the very same thing to Peggy that afternoon. " The giant played with him, too, .pulling; his hair and slapping h'n. " When Billy cried out he only laughed ' more, saying; "That's the -way you treat the gfrls, ; so don't - cry for sym. pathy.".v, : ,.;,-. ...! Suddenly he seemed disgusted at his plaything and took Billy to the edge of l)ie hill, a very stesn hill, and said: "You are no lopjfjr aajr fun, so Til throw you, away aad get a toy that won't ory all time.', for the little boy was crying hard.' Ho 'lifted his hand and threw the frightened little boy into the air. He fell and fell through the air, landing with a thud. He opened his eyes- and fonnd himself on the floor of his owa little room. Just to prove that be really was brave, he didn't cry, but crawled into bed saying. . "Well, if that is the way the girls feel. Til never tease them any more." Sweet Content, our rosebud fairy, flew home, leaving Billy sleeping peacefully. After that night no boy in the whole village was nicer to th girls than Billy. That's what Mr. Buss Fuss says, and he ought to Jtaow.

Activities broke out afresh on the western front, according to the German official statement, which reports that two attacks were made by the British on the French front north of fbe Ancre river. In one, the British
made initial gains, but were driven back with heavy losses by counter attacks the statement says. The other thrust broke down under German fire, it is reported from Berlin. Stating that the Roumanian town of Laburtsa, the German statement regarding that front adds that the Russians were also driven back toward ihe Sereth rives between Braila and Galatz. On the northern end of the Russian front, Berlin reports that heavy fight ing js in progress both along the Dvina and Dvinsk. The statement adds that . the Russians were repulsed in their attacks along the Bilma-Dvinsk railroad. Much space is devoted in the paper.i of the allied countries to the reply of I
