Now, It does not matter how rich an originating bank or group of banks may be-, if there is no public absorption, the ability to advance credit is quickly terminated. So, 1 especially hat It is tho duty of bank- in i with the emphasize the desirability and dwell on the beneficial effect of investment In foreign obligations.

Boston, Jan. 9 No great event of Interest has taken place lately in the Boston boot and shoe market, and as usual, around this time of the year news is not too plentiful.

It is as ye early to tell what the shoe manufacturers will show in their lines for next fall, but predictions are being made that low cuts will be shown extensively in women's shoe. The prices that will have to be charged for boots frighten many manufacturers, who feel that on their account women will prefer to buy low cuts and wear gaiters, as they are doing this season. The chief development in the style situation is the shortening of lasts In women's shoes. The French stylo vamp is still selling very well, and manufacturers who are leaders in style state that they cannot stop the retailers from buying the short vamps. There doubt but that this extreme short lias helped those who were in round.
