notices OF forthcoming christeningS
burials and birthdays OF rich people are
printed, so that the beggar may know

and New York is not the only city with
a "beppars' trust"

LABOR AND INDUSTRY

Last year 1875 girls and women were
engaged in picking coal at the pitheads
in West Lancashire, England, 1870 more
than in the previous year, Of these I9I
were between ID and 10 years Of age.
Longshoreinen On the Pacific coast,
from Cape Nome, Alaska, to San Diego,
Cal. have perfected plans for the estab,
lishment of central organization that
will bring all the coast unions in close
touch. :.
A Defense League for Employers is
forming at Toronto, Canada.
Resolutions iavoring and urging the
movement for an eight-hour law were
nassed at the recent convention OF the
National Association Of Blast Furnace
Workers and Smelters held at Buffalo
N. Y.
Owing to the scarcity of boys for mes
seneer service at St. Louis, Mo-, the dis
trict messenger companies have been ex.
pcrimcnting with men, who are paid
SIX a day and arc not required to
wear uniforms.
II is estimated that there are 100000
working people in the city of Chicago,
and the se5 different trades unions claim
about 40 per cent of that number as
members. 49, -

COMMERCIAL REVIEW.
Geseral Trade Conditions.

R. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
says
"New labor controversies have been
promptly settled by advancing wages,
and the gradual improvement in supply
of coal has reduced prices and restored
activity in manufacturing. Complaints
are increasing as to the tardy movement
of freight, miles of cars being stalled by
the lack of motive power, and many
roads refuse to accept further shipments
until the 5lockades are relieved. Lower
temperature has stimulated retail sales
of seasonable merchandise, but frost
comes too late to seriously injure agricul-
tural products Liberal consumption
sustains quotations in most lines, domes-
tic demands being supplemented by large
exports. Operating expenses of the rail-
ways have increased in many cases to
such degree that net earnings are some
what curtailed, but gross earnings for
October thus far exceed last years by
A. per cent and those of 1000 by 1876
per cent.
: New England shoe manufacturers are
receiving additional orders at fully sus-
tanned quotations, and many shops are
assured of full occupation well into jan
uary. Supplementary orders for winter
goods have decreased, indicating that
wants will be supplied when shipments
are made, and producers are pushing de-
liveries in order to take inventories.
Leather is in better demand, with prices
frmer More interest has been shown in
Chicago packer hides at recently reduced
prices, but the average of all grades is
again lower. Conditions at the cotton
mills are healthy, scarcity of goods
being general, while there is no DISPOSE
ton to force transactions. 1t is early for
supplementary buying of spring wooden
goods and fall trade is finished, so that
these divisions of the market are natur
ally quiet. Raw wool is very firm at the
leading Eastern markets, which are ship
ping freely to the mills.

American-made Macaron'.

II all reports are true there does moi
seem to be any good reason for Our
not making our own macaroni and eat
ing it, too We are beginning to have
the macaroni wheat in large quaint
ties, and if the proprietors OF nacaronl
manufactures want Italian laborers to
give their plants an Italian color, and
their products an Italian flavor, they
can easily secure them among those
settled here. Most OF our cooks need
to take a course in cooking macaroni,
however. before we can have the per
iect results OF nacaroni growing in this
country demonstrated on Our tables,
and when this necessity is provided for
we surely ought to be very proud OF
Our new accomplishment. We can fur
nish a pretty fair cheese to go along

A SURPRISED PHYSICIAN.
A Dying Patient Receivers Through the
Interposition OF o Humble German.
Chicago, Nov Is.

CnlcaSo, NOV To-
Some weeks ago DR.. G., very repu-
table and widely-known physician living OIL
c. street, was called to attend very
complicated case OF rheumatism. Upon
arriving at the house he found man about
forty years of age lying in Frustrated and
serious condition, with his whole frame
dangerously affected with the painful dis.
ease. He prescribed for the patient, but
Sunday evening he was found to be in
very alasming condition. The knees and
elbows and larger joints were greatly in
famed, and could not be moved. 1t was
only with extreme difficulty that the pa
tient could be turned in bed, with the aid
of three or four persons. The weight OF
the clothing was so painful that means had
to be adopted to keep it from the patients
body
The doctor saw that his assistance would
be of no avail, and left the house, the
members of the family following him to
. the door, weeping Almost Immediately
: the grief stricken ones were addressed by
an humble German. He had heard of the
despair of the family, and now asked them
to try his remedy, and accordingly brought
forth bottle of st. Jacobs Oil. The poor
wife applied this remedy. The first appli-
cation eased the patient very much; after
few hours they used it again, and, wonder
of wonders, the pain vanished entirely!
Every subsequent application improved the
patient, and in two days he was we'll and
Uat. When the doctor called few days
after he was indeed surprised.
