;W New York. February ?The aspect of the stock market changed decidedly during the course of to-dsv's opera? tions, sind conveyed the suggestion of greater strength of undertone than was generally bei love J tu exist At the ?.,? ;,iru. he.ir operators, heartened by the advantage which they had gained un the preceding day, resumed their operations with Increased ardor, and a J-.ard drive at the list forced prices downward rapidly.

The generally accepted ex- i ydanatlon of the advance wns that the inarket source of strength lay In sup jiort by banking interests opposed to an extended decline at this time. The ! Improvement wtis assisted by the change in the technical condition of tlie marke*, short Interests apparently having been extended largely on the re i.cti.on. The nonchalance with which the street accepts the purchase of a large block of A tell I son bonds, partly for foreign account, and the continued ease of money at tlie world's principal i ?monetary centres, seemed to speak well for the outcome of negotiations for im? portant financing now pending at home Rnd abroad. Strength of United States Fteel rested on a favorable monthly ex? pectation to-morrow, when a report of a largo increase of unfilled orders is looked for. Bonds were steady.

Every successful business man understands the truth of these statements. And is it not strange that many of these men leave the management of their estates to their wives and children, who, by reason of inexperience, are unable safely to invest and care for it ? What, for instance, is your wife going to do with your insurance money ? And what assurance have you that some sharper will not secure your hard-earned dollars in exchange for his worthless securities? The answer to these questions is: The Virginia TniSt Company will act as your executor and trustee and the guardian of your children, and its capable management, backed by its million-dollar capital is a guarantee of faithful performance of duty.
