DUN'S REVIEW.

New York. Sept. 12.-R G. Dun & Co. s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will
say:
Industrial activity is greater than at
any recent date. Many new factories and
mills have been added to the productive
capacity facilities are being increased at
old plants and idle shops resumed through
the settlement of labor controversies A
coke blockade still exists. the railways

Is above all records and in urgent re-
quest Despite the rapid development of
transportation facilities. the nation
needs have grown still faster, and the
situation is distre ;sing for shippers and
consumers. Large crops are being har-
vested and the greater abundance of food
stuffs caused a decline in price OF COM
modities during August OF 3.5 per cent as
measured by Dun's index number. Re-
tail trade is large with a bright outlook
for the future in jobbing and wholesale
business. There are few of the cancella-
tons so numerous at this time last year
while collections are improving. An adj
vance of 22.9 per cent in bank exchanges
at New York over the same week last
year cannot be explained by speculation
as dealings in stocks were also heavy in
1901 Railway earnings in August exceeded
last years by AZ per cent and those Of
1900 by 1871 per cent.

STORY OF A MODERN RUTH.
Mary Swanger's Remarkable Feats
AS a Farm Hand.

The Ruth of biblical fame and COM
mendation has a most admirable coun-
terpart in Eastern Pennsylvania, her
home being at Myerstown This modern
daughter of Naomi is named Mary Swan
ger and she can perform not only all
the duties of tho house. but she has an
unconquerabe delight IN working in the
harvest field and performing other la
bors which belong properly to farm
hands.
Miss Swanger is visiting at the home
OF Samuel Phillips the proprietor of a
large stock farm near Lebanon. 1t is a
frequent sight to see her assisting in the
harvest field and doing other manual la
Dor about the place. Miss Swanger de-
clares that she does the work not from
necessity. but from choice. She believes
that all women SHOULD do outdoor work
of this character for their own physica al
development. and that if they did the
American women would be stronger and
happier
Suiting her belief to action. Miss Swan
ger has performed two feats which the
neighbors consider marvellous. One Of
these was to shovel 15O0 bushels of
corn into a shelter with an interval of hut
fifteen minutes for rest. The other was
to unload fifteen wagon loads OF grain
In the sheaf and pitch 1t into the loft OF
Mr.. Phillips barn. Miss Swanger Is a
highly educated young woman and her
feats are the talk of the neighborhood.
