A portable office that can be swiftly moved from one location to another. furnished with all the equipment and conveniencés necessary for carrying on the business of a commanding army officer, has been designed for the New York state national guard for service alons the Mexican border. The office is mounted on a 1 1-2 ton Chassis. A table in the center of the body is used for examining drawings, maps and other important papers. When not needed it may be quickly removed. The seats on the sides will accommodate six persons- If necessary, the officer and his staff can transact business While the truck is in motion. The front of the body contains a rolltop desk, seats for clerks and com- partments for three typewriters, which can_be drawn out on slides and oper- ated from the front of the desk. When the typewriters are not in use the writing_shelf of the desk may be dropped down. The drawers and filing spaces are for documents, correspon- dence and record cards. while the long compartments are for filing drawings and other bulky papers. A telephone enables the officer to quickly transmit messages to different parts of the camp. A swinging bulletin board attached to the left stanchion of the body is another interesting fea- ture. A shelf which may be dropped down on the outside of the ~ truck serves as a desk for officers to make out reports. Four wire racks, attached to the inside of the large door, are used fr- “"“ing papers of the differ- ent regiments. A Word of Precaution. ST wherein lies the reason for the use of vegetable preparations for infants and children ? Why are any but vegetable preparations unsafe for infants and children ? Why are Syrups, Cordials and Drops condemned by all Physicians and most laymen ? Why has the Government placed a ban on all preparations containing, among other poisonous drugs, Opium in its variously prepared forms and pleasing tastes, and under its innumerable names? These are questions that every Mother will do well to inquire about. Any Physician will recommend the keeping of Fletcher’s Castoria in the house for the common ailments of infants and children. STEEL STOCKS VACILLATED Bethlehem Steel Made a Net Decline of 27 Points, to 395. New York, Jan. 31.—The stock mar- ket did not make favorable response today to the remarkable financial statement of the United States Steel Corporation, issued after the close of yesterday's session, and this encou: aged the short interest to extend re- cent operations. The moderate extra dividend declared by the steel direc- tors was commended in conservative a although it was generally felt that the enormous earnings war- ranted a more liberal distribution. Consideration of testimony brought out at the “leak” investigation was in some gquarters considered one of the day’s deterrent factors. The opin- fon expressed by one of the witnesses respecting peace negotiations and their effect upon domestic conditions ex- cited considerable interest among the speculative element. Steel vaccillated throughout, open- ing with a fractional gain which soon was forfeited, making full recovery at midday and falling back agam in the last hour, when the entire list, coppers excepted, was at lowest levels.
