TRADE REPORT.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
OF Trade of last week says:
Along the Atlantic coast business
was temporarily checked by the storm
and some interior points also suffered
from unfavorable weather. but con-
sumptive demand gives no evidence of
abatement Prices OF perishable goods
advanced sharply and the whole range
of staple commodities tended upward.
Jobbing trade in spring lines OF wear
ing apparel is Of ample proportions.
and all heavy hardware and products
OF iron feel the pressure In that in
dustry. Prospects are most encourag-
ing as to the labor situation Railway
earnings thus far reported for Febru-
airy show . decrease of but 3.5 per cent
from last years figures. which Is fully
explained by weather conditions, while
compared with 1900 there is an In
crease of s.s per cent Bank exchanges
for the week at the leading cities out
side New York show q gain of 15-5
per cent over last year. while the loss
at New York is but SIS per cent from
the total in 1901. which is more than
accounted for by a decreased activity
in the stock market.
Stock market operations were of
only fair size and price changes small
until Thursday. when severe break
occurred on the announcement that
the attorney general would proceed
against the Northern Securities COM
pany. Much time must now intervene
before the legal status of the concern
is decided.
Liabilities OF commercial failures
thus far reported for February aggre-
gate s6.e97.SS1.
Failures for the week number ESQ in
the United States against 253 last year
and 81 in Canada against 80 last year.

TO SOLVE SOCIAL PROBLEMS.
BY Rev ~ Kbffe

This is an intensely practical age. 1t
does things. Its question, searching and
pitiless to men and institutions, is What
can You do?" 1t cares little for profes-
sions; it wants actions. 1t may be IN
credulous about the power of faith, bat
it demands works. OF religion it also
asks, What can you do?" This may
sound practical and impairment to the
religious idealist, but religion cannot kong
ignore the challenge or delay a reply.
Primarily, the voice of the twentieth
century social needs demands that relg-
ion in its teachings and practice be Sc
verey and practically ethical Ethics re-
late TO right conduct, to right life. In
over-emphasizing the spiritual religion
has obscured the ethical.
The prophets were intensely ethical.
The founder of Christianity laid chief
emphasis upon right conduct. Forgetting
or peryerting the example of the Officially
minded Nazarene his followers have Civ
en- the purely spiritual interests Of re-
ligion their chief concern.
Now our American life needs above all
else a new infusion of an ethical sense.
Business. society. politics, education and
even religious institutions. are woefully
careiHss about right conduct.
Moreover, as Ross points out in his
Social Control" our Western Aryan So
cety. aggressive, impetuous, is Ilore
difficult If ethical control than the pas

in society inherently tending To moeal
aggressioas in its mad race for suprem-
acy, a society whose worst diseas, is its
ethical delinquencies religion has with
noble exceptions here aud there been
strangely careless Of ethical values.
Prof. Ladd of Yale has borne witness
in no uncertain words that the ethical
condition Of the churches is "relatively
low and nerveIess" GLADDEN. ard

message of religion 20 this modern life.
Pews will be vacated. positions viii be
threatened. But the business Of the min
lister is to speak the truth. and the vital
truth. and let the rest take care of itself.
To-day the church is not where it
ought To be in the van Of social progress
but in the rear. It's face is toward the
past, not toward the future.
