tramp who rang a doctors door bell
and asked the trim, pretty woman
who opened the door if she would
ask the doctor if he had pair OF
old pants he was willing to give
away. "I'm the DOCTOR" replied
the plump and pleasing woman,
and the tramp tainted dead away.

Dun'. Review of Trade.

New YORK, September 1.-R. G. Dun
& Co.'S weekly review OF trade says:
Money markets throughout the coun-
try are more healthy, failures diminish
in number, and resumption by number
OF banks and other establishments IL
illustrates the general tendency toward
revival Of confidence. Manufacturers
don't yet feel the upward impulse, and
exhibit on the whole rather less signs
OF Improvement than a week ago. The
record OF the week has been mainly one
OF satisfactory progress toward recovery.
The signs OF improvement observed a
week ago are scarcely sustained, Tor
while twelve textile and thirteen iron
and steel concerns have resumed after
stopping, titty-fve textile and twenty
one iron and steel concerns have
stopped. In addition thirteen others
have reduced working time and several
have reduced working force and large
number have reduced working wages.
A more cheerful tono is seen In iron
aud steel markets and nevertheless
prices don't improve, nor are orders
sufficient TO encourage general resump-
tion Of work.
The anxiety about money has been
greatly relieved, and scarcely any pre-
MUM is now asked for currency, De-
cause many concerns when require
cash for payment Of hands have stopped,
while many others are using checks and
other substitutes for cash.
The failures reported during the past
week in the United States is $50 against
lis for the same week last year, ana Ia
Canada % against 2S last year.
