Clean the Snow on Your Sidewalks.

Why do not our "city dads" compel
every man TO shovel the snow Oft his
sidewalks, or, ii he is too lazy or too
stlngy TO pay boy dime to do it,
the city should see that it is done once
in twenty-four hours, at least, and make
it tax on the property for dong IT,?
Scraplng over the snow drifts on the
sidewalks by the ''clty scraper' does
not amount to much, and 1t makes so
much more tax for the taxpayers. 1t
is disgrace TO the city 10 allow snow
To remain on sidewalks. Why should
any person be allowed to compel any
man, woman or child to wade knee
deep IN snow to reach grocery, meat
market or school? | feel, after clean

fact was mentioned recently in an article
written regarding congressman by a

chiefly Of offers of marriage from all

thousands Strange to say. the senator
looks coldly upon these delightful and

predict heavy business I'm all
lines OF their trade during the coming
season. Typical midsummer weather
and and the absence OF many OF the prin-
cipal local buyers, have resulted IN a
quiet and unruffed market at 81. Louis.
Purchases are reduced to small lots COW
ering immediate needs, and Tor the present
both buyers aud sellers seem To have
called temporary truce on Later Jusi-
ness. Increased activity, however, will
soon prevail, ms consumption in most
branches is very active. and everything
points TO n heavy fall trade. IL is report
cd M Pittsburgh that parties are now IN
the market TO place contracts Tor large
amount OF pipe, which will require be-
tween 80 900 and 10000 tons of skelp
iron to complete the contract ore.
Since there has been no more market
for some weeks, IL would be idle TO com
ment upon something that does notexist.
The iaet il, the sales agents are enjoying
their Vacations which, az matter OF
history, they might as well have begun
last December after the bulk OF the ore
was sold. The situation regarding
freights remains unchanged M well,
prices being at the old notch, and very
lew charters being reported in addition 90

general impression abroad among max
ers OF pig material that an Improvement

While il is natural Co expect an advance
after long period al low.prices, the
additional claim is set up on tho part OF
some leading furnace concerns that the
demand forpig iron il steadily increasing
by reason oi the very large number Of
new consumers, such as fOundries, that
ARE constantly coming into the market,
this Increase being iar in advance OF the
corresponding growth among the fur
naccs. IL cannot be denied that the CON
sumption oiiron is enormously large and
the market is very active without, how
ever, displaying any Indication OF
strength Thus most OF the material
sold is for Immediate or very short deliv-
cry, prices varying with almost each i'm
dividual sale. Several large manufact-
urers ~ agricultural implements were
among the buyers this week, and, while
their orders undoubtedly relieved the
market 90 some extent, the price was
hardly profitable 90 the makers. The
call seems to be for foundry iron just
now, and quite good deal OF charcoal
iron is finding market. Forge iron Is

CoNsTAyTSOPLE. Sept. 10.-The dress
of the Turkish woman is peculiar and
the style never changes materially,
though once in while sleeves will be
tight instead Of loose or some trihing
change will be made The colors are al
ways Of the most brilliant. and the most
startling contrasts are much sought.
No woman can seek or ask the society
of her husband out Of her turn On any
pretsxt. Where there is o large harem
the wives are called Lady Monday, Lady
Tuesday and SO ON.
Turkish houses of any pretensiOn have
q courtyard, or at least large hall,
where the men servants and visitors sit
while awaiting the signal to enter the
haremlil: or room where the master of
the house receives his friends and eats
his meals and attends to all business
connected with the household. His little
boys, after they are years old, live
there with him in care OF tutor. The
girls remain with their mothers. The
rooms of the harem, or sacred place"
are placed ON the other side of the hall
or court, and generally consist of suite
Of many rooms. The large living room
is in the middle, with long hall open
ing out Of it, on each side OF which are
the wives separate suites OF rooms.
The number of attendants and servants
considered necessary for a Turkish house
hold could never be accommodated in
buildings Of reasonable size if each had to
have a bedroom. but they sleep on the
divans and on tho floor in every room.
The bitter cold is very hard to bear in
Turkey, as there are no stoves or CRATES
o. other means OF heating than little
braziers, with less than quart OF glow
ing charcoal partially covered by ashes
to keep q great bare room warm. Wom-
en and children are inuflel ia furs TO
the very eyes, and they eat, smoke and
sleep away their time.
In the summer the women can 60 TO
the Sweet Waters, q pretty creek wish
some fifty or sixty plane trees, and here
they sit Oh the ground ald listen to the
wandering minstreis, eat, drink an1
