Eleven THURSDAY. MORNING, THE PITTSBURGH POST NOVEMBER 6, 1913. The Pittsburgh Commodities Market Automatic Dump Car Operated With Air Many Completions Show Good Wells Two Small Sales In Realty Market To Check fl Inor Tirana es WHAT CAUSES THE THATCH TO YIELD AND HOW ITS DISAPPEARANCE MAY BE PREVENTED By THE GREEN GOODS MAN. "This barber sold a remedy for falling hair. He did not say it would check falling hair, but said the dope would make the hair come out nicely.

A man or woman with a disappearing thatch will believe any hair dope. "One day a customer came back to the barber and complained that instead of preventing the hair falling out the dope had caused it to fall out much faster than the natural gait. 'I told you, said the barber. 'It would make the hair come out nicely, and didn't it?" 'Stung, by said baldy." 67c. No.

IS! i Foreign Exchange (Reported by Mellon National Bank.) With the resumption of business on Wednesday morning, sterling exchange showed Httla change a compared with figures prevailing at the close on -Montay, demand bills being offered at the previous figure of 4S5.20 while cable transfers declined a fraction to 485.65.

Continentals opened very strong, gaining from 1-32 to 1-16 per cent. What played a prominent part in connection with the firmer tone was continued selling of American securities by the foreigners, somewhat easier rates for call loans on this side and the advices of higher discounts from abroad. The undertone of the market around noon was steady but mixed, with the range of quotations for actual transactions in bankers" bills given out on the following basis: London Cable, 480.60; demand. 4S5.20; 6-3 days, 90 days. 47S'4S47S; flour and grain bills (documents for payment), 4S0 and 4S14, respectively.

FOR DEPOSITORS A communication has been received by this department from Marie Astro-gotb. In which the lady is very anxious to know how to prevent falling hair," said the Green Goods Man as he made a noise like a switch.

"fif pnniHB Marie did iiot exnlain her habits. It should always be borne in mind. Marie, that a person of good habits never gets bald. Hard drinking often causes the hair to fall out and I would advise you to cut out the booze. All rough water consumers lose their hair early in life and have to buy Chinese hair.

"It is probable Marie is a lover of dogs and has a mangy pup for a companion. If this presumption is true, it is likely Marie has contracted the mange from the dog and in a short time will be as bald as a brass cuspidor. There i.i no hope for you, Marie. Pull out what hair is remaining and buy a wig. "One way to prevent hair falling out is to keep clean.

As soon as you were old enough, Marie, to wash the ring of dirt around your neck and soak your ears intelligently, you should have commenced to wash your hair. The best way is to wash one hair at a time. More time is required, but you can do a much better job. "There is a barber in Fittsburgh, Marie, I might recommend, but I doubt if he could give you the required relier. In fact, he would probably make the few remaining hairs disappear with one application.

They were in transit to an Eastern line from Columbus, where they were bui.t. They are intended for use in construction work, being air-d ump vehicles operated automatically. They were of two sizes, one carrying 16 cubic yards level capacity and 23 as a maximum load and the other 20 and 18 cubic yards, respectively.

The dumping mechanism is worked by direct air application. A whole train carrying ifrom 2S0 to 560 cubic yards can be dumped, righted and on its return run to a cut within a few seconds. May Net Resell Transportation. The Pennsylvania, which raised the question of the right of persons to resell transportation purchased from it, has won a temporary victory in the form of an injunction restraining a merchant of Phoenixville from disposing of package, or "strip" tickets. It has been the practice the merchant in question to purchase that class of transportation in quantities and resell the single tickets at prices lower than those provided by the tariffs filed with the interstate commerce commission.

Firemen's Grievances Adjusted. With a view to insuring the safety of passengers and employes on the Pennsylvania railroad, the general manager re-centlv issued instructions governing the period of apprenticeship which a fireman should serve before being promoted to e.igineman. A feeling of apprehension was manifested on the part of some or the men lest these rules might work hardship on some employes, so they sought a meeting with the general manager. After several conferences. General Manager S.

C. Ixmg sent a letter to the employes' committee, outlining the company's policy. The employes' committee accepted the letter as satisfactory and replied that it would consider the matter closed unless an unexpected occasion should arise. Sparks From the Rail. Passenger Trainmaster J.

O. The West Virginia Insurance Department has notified insurance companies that the collection of a fee on policies is illegal, because it is discriminating. The policy fee, it holds, is not common, and it must be in order to make it non-discriminating. The ruling is on standard fire insurance policies, for which some agencies have been collecting a policy fee. There is a movement to place St.

Paul in the third class as a fire risk, instead of second class. It is said that the losses from fire in that citv ar so heavy that the change is demanded as a matter of protection. Low River Stage Holds Up Towboats Because of the rapid fall of the rivers several towboats, which were bound for Pittsburgh with emDties, have been forced to tie up toelow Beaver.
