Today's Market Quotations

CORN MARKET IN CHICAGO WEAKENS CHICAGO, Nov. 8. Prospects that the government crop report this afterroon would show a larger yield of corn than was indicated a month ago, teded today to weaken the com marfret. Besides, leading authorities asserted that signs pointed to heavy marketing of soft corn despite -efforts to have such grain utilized for feeding on farms. Mild temperatures prevailing counted also as an" "element of weakness. Opening quotations, which ranged from. the same as yesterday's finish to c lower, with Dec. $1.18 and May $1.18 to $1.14, were; fallowed by a material set back all around. Oats eased off with corn.. Most of the trade consisted of changing trades from December to May. s Packers buying gave a sharp lift to provisions, especially pork. Offerings were scarce. GRAIN QUOTATIONS CHICAGO, Nov. 8.

That the destinies of Europe for centuries to come are bound up In the present war is a fact so well known as to require no further argument. The accompanying maps give some idea of what victory or defeat will mean to the fighting nations. One of the maps shows the Pan-German scheme a Teutonic, imperialistic wedge driven straight through the center of the continent, cutting it into three sharply separated sections, providing a purely German trade route from the North sea to the Persian gulf, and constantly suggesting and favoring further encroachments on the non-

There is not much sentiment in the makeup of an American artilleryman. His one idea is that he is in France to fight so it took a moment or two for the men to decide to accept the demonstration of approval. Even when this was done, the Americans were more or less embarrassed and many, whose business for some days, had been confined to killing Germans, actually blushed. Tonight the artillerymen turned in at 6 o'clock. Tomorrow they will not be called out until hours after the regular time. The men were very tired, having marched for many hours under unfavorable conditions and eating their short ration while perched astride a horse or swinging on top of a gun carriage. The horses were worn out and some laid down as soon as they reached, their beds of straw. Not a Man Grumbled. Despite the hardships, not a man was heard to grumble except about the fact that no mail from home was waiting for him. Every one declared enthusiastically that the firing of shells at the boche would be "fine business." All were anxious to go back again. In this command there was not one casualty despite the length of its stay at the front and the fact that the Germans shelled he American artillery heavily several times. The officers said that the night the Americar trench was raided the artillery got in to action quickly and poured a counter-barrage into No-Mans-Land. They were sure they prevented all the Germans from reaching the trench and that some of the Germans never got back alive. The officers and men were proud of their ability to handle their i guns in this manner. The members of the crew which fired the first shot at the Germans aduuiieu tu.it tuey eujojeu tu "P"'ence greatly. One gunner remarked that he would rather have had that ex- : . J .L.l . V. 1 .

After a short rest this artillery con tingent will be sent to other camps to instruct other arillerymen who have no yet been at the front. Palladium Want Ads Pay.

A war photographer under his conical helmet. The 6teel helmets that have been almost universally adopted by the armies on the battlefields of Europe are now to be used by the photographers who are making the pictorial history of the world conflict. They are slightly different from tljose in general use, being conical in shape and coming down far over the eyes. It is believed these new helmets will give greater protection to the wearer than any other yet devised.

Age Limit For Navy is Raised to 35

Men thirty years old or from 18 years to 30 years will now be accepted as apprentice seamen in the navy according tq. orders received by Navy Recruiter Goldf arb here. Heretofore men over 25 years of age were rejected. Recruiter Goldfarb Thursday reminded Richmond people that Chrlstmaspackages to sailors on ships in European waters, or to members of the American Expeditionary forces in France must positively be in the mail not later than November 15. ' ' Candle Making an Art The making of candles is not ordi narily considered a fine art, but the Italians have made It such. The distinctively Italian votive taper is made by hand. The materials are pure beeswax, which is kneaded and tempered, and mixed with a secret Ingredient to retard combustion, and which has special Egyptian cotton for wicks.- The cotton, too, is treated with chemicals to keep it from feeding too fast. Small candles are molded. Large ones are made by rolling up sheets of wax. Cicero's Estimate of Freedom. The recovery of freedom is so splendid a thing that we must not 6hun even death when seeking to recover It. Cicero. SAYS A CORN ACTS LJKE ELECTRIC BELL Tells Why a Corn Is so, Painful and Says Cutting Makes Them Grow. Press an electric button and you form a contact with a live wire which rings the bell. When your shoes press against your corn it pushes its sharp roots down upon a sensitive nerve and you get a shock of pain. Instead of trimming your corns, which merely makes them grow, just step into any drug store and ask for a quarter of an ounce of freezone. This will cost very little but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet. A few i drops applied directly upon a tender, aching corn stops the soreness in stantly, and soon the corn shrivels up so it lifts right out, root and all, without pain. This drug is harmless and never inflames or . even irritates the surrounding tissue or skin. Adv. !!!!!!! iiJuiii'iiii!

The Evolution of

Early phonographs need tin horn to megaphone the music. The tone was metallic and unnatural. Then the tin horn was placed within a cabinet but, though hidden from sight, its "twengy" tone was unchanged. Wood horns are now used by many. But the common woods they employ are unmusical. So the improvement in tone is but slicbt. Seme also use cast-iron throats, (marked ."metal" eboveX (illustrated) ! composed wholly ef Silver Grain, Spruce, the mot musically vibrant wood which grows. For centuries the great muaio masters have used - it tot their rare-toned violin end other fine instruments.

Don't buy a phonograph blindly. Ask whether it has a tin horn, or a part wood, part iron horn and throat, or just a common wood horn and throat. The answers will surprise you. You wouldn't buy a violin or piano with a sounding-board made of such materials. The horn and throat of a phonograph are its "sounding-board."
