FRANCE HOPEFUL FOR NEW YEAR ? - Begins 1920 With Greater Confi dcnoe Than It Did ti e Last DUE TO DEFEAT OF RADICALS Election* Stabilize Internal Condi' tions, Though Fall of Franc la Still Serious Problem?Study Financial Policy. Pari^.- -Frame began I lie DilW year with far greater confldwice tluin the last. T&Uj <8 IB "pit? of formidable handicap!, such us the balance of trade running against her at the rate of about I ,000,000,000 francs a inontli, about ftO per <*?>nt depreciation of the exchange vuluo of the franc and the consequent difficulty of procuring raw materials and machines urgently needed for reconstruction. France's renewed confidence I* de rived directly front the result of the * recent election#./ These are regarded here as having definitely stabilized In tern a I politics, ended all danger of revolutionary agitation for some time to come and brought about a better at tltude by capital and labor toward the Immense effort before France. Money is forthcoming for Invest meats lit anything that promises stabll ity. While the Investments In short term treasury bonds are continuing at the rate of nearly 2,000,000,000 francs a mouth, (here Is plenty of money for Industrial and commercial enterprises and long-term loans. Tho 4,000,000,000 franc loan to provide Immediate resources for Indemnifying victims of the Invasion was oversubscribed beforo the official opening of the subscr|p lions. Important banks and Indus* trial companies have lately increase^ their capital to an aggregate of nearly M6,flOO.OOO.OOO francs. Big Trade on E^ourse. Transactions on the Purls bourse^ which still are confined to cash deals, have exceeded on certain days records of pre war trading, when futures en tered largely lido the totals. The tip ward movement of all Industrials which began before the signature., of the treaty at Versailles, has been un checked by successive liquidations. This ts regarded by keen observers here a*- a nitre sign of economic re covery. Employers say the labor situation is improved and that the last strikes de veloped signs that the workers them ^?elves were becoming weary of - long t'uutiniied disturbances ?? f business, in dustry and Irausportatiou. Th<iy nee n tendency against frivolous strikes and an Indlcntion 111-41 only real griev ances w i11 Induce the wage earners to. quit work hereafter. I ?e<vnt rnlizat ion of capital and In dustry is seen Iti the establishing In Normandy of textile Industries to re place tho^o* in the occupied territory destroyed by the war. Tills movement lias been greatly extended, by develop ment of wiiter power in the region of the Alps and the center and south of France. Industrial leaders say that no particular region of France here after will monopolize any industry, and declare that (IiIh scattering will prove beneficial ami result In a more equable recovery of all parts of the country.

Ihe sltua i Ion Instability of the exchange value of the franc is regarded as one of the upiiko^t points in French condltIons.

EXPLAINS CAUSE OF COLDS Lowered Vitality, Due to Many Condi tions, Frequently Responalble for Annoying Ailment. C#ds are caught by a combination of two Conditions, first, tho presence of certain germs in the nose and throat, and second, by a change in the blood supply to the membrane of these ports. Rossbach found by experiments on rabbits that chilling the outside of the body drives the blood inwards, causing congestion of tho air pas sages. Recently some authorities have demonstrated a l/\rk of circulation In tho .nasal passage produced by chilling. Tho final effect, however, seems to be tho same whether -thf condition Is congestion or bloodless uess. In a perfectly hen I thy person these conditions are controlled sufficiently by vasomotor action of the blood ves sels to prevent Injury to * the mem brane. If, however, the action of the blood vessels Is not up to nor mal, these conditions may .continue till the membrane Is Injured by In flammation so that It loses Its resist ance and even the germs commonly present obtain a foothold. This snb normnl action of the vasomotor sys tem Is caused by chronic catarrh, ad enoids, enlarged tonsils, nasal obstruc tions, general nervousness, Indiges tion, luck of exercise or proper rest, In fact anything which lowers the gen eral vitality or the local vitality of the membrane. Stolen Fruit. In how UIIIII.V tilings is each day like its predecessor? Ami in how many things are this year's days like the days of I en years ago?or longer? Just think of this in your own rou tine and habits. Then, if you wish to have an Interesting experience, see In how manyx ways you could change till* monotony and sameness without disad vantage and with positive advantage In many cases ? and then make the change. True, It will come almost as a shock, the realization that many confirmed habits, customs, viewpoints have been and are time wasted, strength wasted, money wasted, useless and needless drains and strains. And If you are sin cere and determined In the conversion of your mode of life In the dally little things, you will be astonished to find that some of your most cherished cus toms are the most reasonless, ? The discipline of changing will be good; the resulting saving of time will be better.?Exchange. Dry.Time Atrocity. A tale of woe, with Sir Arthur Shir ley Henn, head of the Hrltlsh trade ? mission, was told at a dinner at New ; York.
