A revival of the iron industries through
out Pennsy lvania is an encouraging sign
OF the times. There are now more fur
naces ia blast than usual at this season OF
the year, and more hands employed than
ever before since the year 1872. Tue es-
Establishments for making steel are also re-
suming active OPP -ratlons. with orders
ahead sufficient to keep their hands en-
ployed for long time to come Gradu-
ally the toundries and machine shops in
our large cities, says the Harrisburg In
dependent, are re-opening, and some OF
them have accepted heavy orders at low
rates. but not such as will cause any loss
in the operations, because OF the cheaper
rates ruling for labor and material. The
indications are favorable for an increase
OF all leading lines OF manufacture, and
by next frost our industries will, no doubt,
be quite active once more. The feeling
in trade circles is hopeful thus Tar in adj
vance of the autumn season, and in some
lines prospective orders are reported TO
be numerous and heavy, VITA promise
OF an extensive cash and thirty-day busi-
ness at fair profits. Large sums OF
money that have been lying idle in the
banks are being drawn upon for invest
ment 10 legitimate mercantile enterprises,
and there are abundant evidences that we
shall have prosperous fall and winter sea-
sons.

GOOD ADVICE.

An exchange gives this sound advice
To the farmers:
MANY farmers seem to think there is
something gained by getting trusted for
whatever they have to buy Many far
mers laboring under this delusion. allow
their grocery bills to run for Years unset
tied, as also their blacksmiths bills. and
always owe tor their agricultural tools
and machinery. Never did men make a
greater mistake. There is probably no
one thing that operates so much to keep
farmers, as a class, behind and in strait
ened circumstances as the habit OF get
ting trusted for what they buy. 1t is a
good rule to pay when you buy, and if
you cannot do so then go without till You
can. This makes tne independent farmer,
while the habit OF getting trusted makes
the farmer the most dependent man IN the
community slave in fact to all ether
classes"

A good story is current in Lower
Peoria, ILL.,, which has the additional
merit of being strictly true, at least
so it is said. IL seems that q Mi
lesiln gentleman OF somewhat ADJ
yanced age had q son, who recently
went to his father and proceeded 10
inform him that he proposed to COM
NIT matlimony. On receiving the
announcement The old gentleman
said: well, my sen, to whom p
Misc Jane SO and So,' replied the
son, naming her. ado you loye
her?' was the next inquiry, to
which "a s~atilactory answer was
given. is she q good girl?' "YeS;
as nice a girl as there is in Lower
Peoria" "WetI, my son, how ale
YOU going to support her; has she
any money!" yes, father, she has
$500 that | know OIL" "Then,'
said the old man rising from his
seat, catching hold Of his son and
yelling out the words, Grab her,
my boy; grab her. Don't wait to
ask anybody'S consent" Inasmuch
as the wedding came off a couple
days ago we presume that the son
followed the fathers advice and
grabbed" her.

Children are quick to perceive
the standard of integrity held by
those around them, and to catch the
prevailing tone of moral feeling.
When they hear injustice condcmre4
in large things and palliated ia
small ones; when their own childish
dcprcdations are treated with
lcvity. or passed over with
ind iferen,e; when! deceitiui prac-
tiucs are tolerated, ond simply
troublesome habits are punished, it
is not strange that they learn to
measure the guilt OF dishonesty only
by the meterial loss Or annoyance
entailed.--[Phil. Ledger.
