American manufacturers are evil
IDENTIFY quite as busy in 1901 as they
were In 1900. At least this Ia n reason
able conclusion from an examination
of the figures of the Treasury Bureau
of Statistics. which show that the to-
tai imports of manufacturers mate
rlals In the nine months ending with
September, 1901, were greater In value
than those OF the corresponding
months OF last year. although an
analysis Of the imports, article by ar
ticle, shows that In many cases the
prices per unit Of quantity have de-
creased, This decrease In price Is 30
strongly marked that in many cases
while the figures Of value show a de-
crease In the nine months OF 1901, as
compared with those Of 1900, the fg-
ures of quantity for the same period
show an increase. For instance, Inn
ports OF India rubber when measured
by value show slight reduction In
1901 as compared with 1900, while the
quantity imported In 1901 shows an
increase Of more than 100000 pounds
as compared with the same months OF
1900. Pig tin, used in manufacturing
tin plate, shows in value u slight re-
ductlon in the imports of 1901 as COM
pared with last year, but in quantity
there Is an increase Of over 100000
pounds, Imports OF manufactured
fibers show decrease Of more than
100000 In value as compared with
those OF 1900, yet the quantity shows a
material increase Taking the grand
total OF value of imports OF raw ma
torials for use In manufacturing, the
imports in the nine months OF 1901
compared with those OF 1900 were: For
1901, 1921. .469, 1854; for 1900, $2l7, ,e19,S ,S72;
while in the month Of September

Money in Pork.

Prices in the hog markets have been
what may be called "nrm" for a good
many months. That they are to re-
main 80 is indicated to some extent by
the anxiety shown by the packers,
who are doing all possible to stimulate
hog raising. The recent high prices
have resulted in the marketing Of a
good many light hogs. In some OF the
Chicago markets good many light
pork loins are being sold, some Of the
lolns weighing about Ave pounds each,
less than half the usual. The pigs
were evidently marketed because their
owners feared a drop In prices, but this
very process Is most likely to prevent
drop in prices by decreasing the sup
ply Of mature hogs. We do not mean
to say that the prices are to stay at
the present point. That would be abb
surd. The market must and Will
change in response to the multitudin-
GUS influences that are always AFFECT
ing 1t. But the prices Of hogs will
for long time at least remain high
enough to permit Of the wise feeder
and judlcious marketer making profit
on his investment as well as to get
pay for his work, There are few farm
ers that raise too many hogs. 1t is
more usual for him not to raise as
many hogs as would yield him profit.
The men that have been raising hogs
for years and have kept at 1t through
bad times and good are now making
money out OF their tenacity. There
is money in pork, but the farmer that
goes into hog raising in good times
and out Of hog raising in bad times
Is likely to miss 1t.

CHAPTER XI.

Lady Frances left the room with
alacrity, Gerard Immediately bent
over Alice and his tone changed,
II have sent her away on purpose,
She'll be half an hour rummaglng,
for l have not seen the book there for
ages. Alice, one word before we part,
You must know that II was for your
sake | refused the marriage proposed
to me by my uncle; you will not let
me so Into banishment without word
OF hope promise of your love to
tighten IT,"
"Oh, Gerard" she eagerly said, ~
am 80 glad you have spoken; | almost
think ! should have spoken myself, II
you had not, Just look Mt me-"
II am looking at you" he fondly
answered
Then look at my hectic face, my
constantly tired limbs, my sickly
hands, do they not plainly tell you
that the topics you would speak Of
must be barred topics to mo?"
"Why should they be? You will get
stronger"
Never There Is no hope OF II.
Many years ago, when the illness first
came on me. the doctors said ! might
get better with time; but the time has
come, and come, and come, and-gone,
and only left me more confirmed In

yourself Gerard, II am one who

husband to regret me; perhaps chill

"You are cruel, Alice"

allowed you to talk Of love TO me; or,
still more selfish to let you cherish
hopes that would marry. When you

had spoken. | should have told you,
Gerard, rs tell you now, that nothing,

on earth shall ever induce me to
marry"
"You dislike me, SEQ that.
~ did not say So" answered Alice,
with a glowing cheek, 81 think II
very possible that--if could ever al
low myself to dwell on such thiugs--I
should like you very much, perhaps
better than | could like amy one"
"And why will you not?" her per-
suasively uttered.
Gerard, I have told you. am too
weak and sickly to be other than |
am. 1t would only be deceiving myself
and you, No, Gerard, my love and
hopes must lie elsewhere"
"Where?" he eagerly asked.
Alice pointed upwards,

home" she whispered, land must not
suffer hlndrances to obscure the way.
1t will be n better home than even
your love, Gerard"

GIRL WHO GOT PRErTlER.

An Embarrassing Misunderstanding
Caused by Vocal CockncyIsm.
Mr.. Charles Whymper, the we'll
known engraver and animal painter,
told the following anecdote few
years ago. al dlned at Mr.. So-and-
Sos at Highgate last night, and as n
mark of honor his eldest daughter was
assigned to me to take down to din
ner. She's a bright girl, and I got
along very nicely with her and Lady
Bletherington on the other side, until
the ladies were on the eve of retiring
to the drawing room. I was talking
about the beautiful scenery near the
house, the views from the windows,
the fine air, when Miss -------- suddenly
said: I think | get prettier every day
don't your What could she mean? !
did not dare to answer her, so | said,
I beg your pardon-what did you
say?' 4 said think | get prettier
every day. There was no mistaking
her words, so I answered: Yes, in
deed, you get prettier; and no wonder,
in such fresh air, and Just then she
caught her mothers eye, and with the
other ladies she left the room. AS she
went out she looked over her shoulder
with such a wlthering scorn in her
eyes that I knew had put my foot in
1t some how. Then 1t flashed upon
me that I had misunderstood her; she
had dropped an H. What she had
said was not silly compliment to
herself; the sentence really was: I
think Highgate prettler every day"
Mr.. Whympers hair is quite gray now.
