COMMERCIAL REVIEW.
General Trade Conditions.

R. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review or
trade says:
Warmer weather has made it possible
for the retail trade to regain part OF the
earlier losses in volume OF transactions
and the level OF quotations for staple
lines OF merchandise is well main
tanned. Wholesale trade in seasonabie
goods is quiet, although there is
more or less supplementary business,
and jobbers report increased activity IN
several lines OF wearing apparel. Cloth.
ing manufacturers are busy on fan
samples. which are unusually late. Fur
niturc and harness factories are notably
we'll supplied with orders and there
is no evidence OF dullness in machinery
or hardware.
AT most points there are indications
oil improvement in mercantile collec-
tions, the favorable progress OF farm
work having good influence at the
interior, while heavy sales OF fertilizers
testify to the extensive preparation Tor
large crops. Industrial conditions
would be exceptionally encouraging
were it not for the vast army OF men
voluntarily Idle. Railway earnings
continue to show the usual gain, May
figures thus far surprising last years
by 1874 per cent, and those OF 1901 by

EpWORTH LEAGUE MEETING TOPICS
May 5l.-Missionary MeGtirg-Work Among
ilcailcn " Nom.n.

Multitudes of women among all
heather people are without the light of
the Gospel, and it may truly be said
that in every country and tribe and
island community heathenism lays
upon woman the heaviest burdens and
brings to her the deepest degradation
and misery. 1t matters not whether
she is shut up in seclusion or not. II
she leads comparatively free outdoor
life it is, as among the American In
dams and Africans, virtual slavery
OF grinding toll and drudgery for her
husband as her master. She is hedged
about by cruel superstition until her
own soul becomes contaminated with
the baseness of her estate.
But cur thought especially turns to
those vast masses of heather women
shut up in zeananas, harems, or wom
ems aDartments, to be reached only by
N,o..Idn missionaries. There are eighty
million women IN Moslem harems; per
haps one hundred million in the zen
anas of India, of whom twenty-one mil
lien are widows, the most despised and
prosecuted of all: almost countless
numbers of foot-bound women in the
apartments of China.
The first recorded visits to zenanas
were undertaken before any account OF
them was made public. The Society
for Promoting Female Education in the
East was first established in Europe
in 1884. Three years later their first
zenana missionary, Miss Wakefield,
was permitted to enter four zenanas in
Calcutta, not only to teach needlework,
but to read in Bengal from Christian
school books. There are now reported
six woman's foreign missionary socie-
ties on the continent of Europe, nine
teen in Great Britain, five in Canada,
and twenty-four in the United States,
including one in the Hawaiian Islands,
or a total of fifty-four, with an annual
income of about one and quarter mil
lions Of dollars, and twelve hundred
representatives in the field.
The society of our own Church has
magnificent record of third of a
century. Among it's first and most in
fluential workers abrohd was Miss Isa-
bella Thoburn, who sailed for India
November 2, 1869, and was translat-
ed to the immortal cline Sep
tember /, 1901. Already marvellous
results have been accomplished The
long-standing barriers Of false religious
teaching, bitter prejudice. immediate
custom, caste, ignorance, selfishness,
are giving way. Pure homes are being
formed, and gradually mems ideas of
women's relations to life are being rev.
| olutionized.
How can we as young people help
this work? For one thing. by denying
ourselves OF needless luxuries and In
dulgences, and giving the money saved
to this cause. There never has been a
time in the past, such an opportunity
as exists to-day, for a man, or wom-
an with a small sum OF money to take
large part in the extension of the
Kingdom of God.

Two gospels lie side by side in the New
Testament, There is the gospel of being
helped, and the gospel of being helpful
Good tidings of Gods mercy upon us,
Gods salvation brought to us, and good
others. and bring the message OF salvation
near to them. Beside the parable of the
Prodigal Son stands the parable of the
Good Samaritan. Beside the blessed invi.
tations stand the beatitudes on service 1t
is all one gospel of Jesus Christ. but it
comes as two messages unto us. We have
only half the JOY and blessing il we stop
short after hearing the first glad word.
We have the full message when we hear
the lips that whispered Come unto Me-
saying also go ye" into all the world.

SCARLET pAFFopILs ON MARKEl
They Are Made by Putting Stems In
Colored Water.


There is no such thing as scarlet
daffodil. The so-called scarlet daffodils
are simply the familiar Van Sions
treated artificially.
They are not dyed, as people used to
think of the green carnation once fash
ionable; but. after cutting, the stems
are immersed In water saturated with
a red dye. which passes up the vessels
of tho stems. and is absorbed In the
petals, where it soon overpowers the
time-honored yellow.
This trick. which Is near akin to
vandalism, has been played very gen
orally in London this Spring. especially
by the itinerant vendors in Sloane
street, where we have seen apparently
lavender narcissi, which were bear
able, and others tinged with the mos
horrible magenta.
SO far we have noticed the tricl
only In connection with narcissi. !
remains only TO hope that 1t may no
be applicable to roses, for, II II be, l
may cause trouble at the shows
