THE IRON AGE REVIEW,

New York. May 14.-Reviewing the iron and
steel markets, the Iron Age says:
Our monthly blast furnace statistics show that
production is going at tremendous rate
and that May production should reach 1900 600
gross TONS ~
The surprising and most significant fact how
ever, Is that the stocks reported, which do not
include the steel works using their own pig show
decline from 17O774 tons on April to 1922
742 tons on May 49, and 1t may be interesting to
note that the total production in April of 1.6OS-
431 tons Of anthracite and coke iron 1854 $50
tons was produced by the steel works. s.sE
These figures are eloquent proof of the fact
that the considerable consumption. of pig. iron
is taking not alone our own enormous production
but also the current importations
Yet consumers are holding of, particularly in
the foundry trade, and their attitude seems
had gone down to an unnatural figure. from
which they have been and are still receding.
Last year leading interests in the south made
a frantic but ineffective effort to hold down the
market to the basis Of s12 so for No. 2 fomndry
iron at Birmingham. Now some of them are
struggling to hold values at $17.5o when outside
interests are selling down to $3.50. 2
Another element is that a large part of the
new capacity. which has entered the market is
that Of the steel companies which will cut down
their outside purchases This puts pressure on
which may be expected to turn to the foundry
trade for relief. s
On the other hand, these la tier may point with
confidence to the tremendous consumption on the
part OF the foundr1es and to the fact that, in
spite of the large commitment for castings, the
founders have not covered ~ Y 81
Reports have been circulated in Wall street
concerning sudden break in billets in Pitts
burg. There is no truth in them. There, is
still scarcity Of steel in the Pittsbnrg market.
AS matter Of fact, the steel market in Pitts
burg has become very restricted and unimpor-

taken on an added broadness at the sides,

back has shrunken until there is but an

And the smart girl can take her own

others are broad and low, and fiat. The
bandeau, however, is placed more decid-

wired so that they may be bent to any
angle which will prove most becoming to
the fair wearer, and a hat may thus be
so twisted and bent to a becoming shape
that the original lines may be entirely lost

the first to adopt the new is sage and
sound advice at all times to the girl who
would be- considered fashionable; but
most especially will this advice hold good
when she comes to select her autumn
hats from among the models which Paris
mas Juse sent over. The new models
are bewilderingly and even Realistically
pretty, and the best among them are so
startlngly different from anything that
we have seen or worn for these many,
many moons that it is perhaps a little

The new hats are of two widely diff

Inc large and the very large hats we

THE TECHNIQUE OF EMBROIDERY
Expert Implements and of Securing the
Best EHect-Pattern for Amy Robstart's Quilt

y Needles-It Is a mistake to use verys
fine needle for embroidery. The silk thread
or crewel must pass loosely in the needle
Unless the eye is relatively larger than
the silk, 1t does not make a sufficiently
large hole In the material, and the silk is
then roughened and pulled out of shape
each time 1t Is taken thru the too small
hole
Scissors - Short, sharp and finely
pointed
Prickers for gold embroidery are neces-
sary; also in some forms of COUGHING they
are useful for arranging the lay of the
thread.
Thimbles-work sometimes prefer
ivory or vul canite; two thimbles are used
for frame work.
Materials.
Crewels-Never take more than about
half the length of a skein in your needle.
If a long needleful is used it is not only
wasteful, but liable to pull the work and
become frayed or knotted before you have
used 1t all. Crewels manufactured with
a twist are considered bad. No doubt a
twisted crewel wears we'll, but they are
not so soft and harmonious as when they
are UNFINISHED. The colors in the best
quality crewel are perfectly reliable, and
will wash well, provided no soda or
strong soaps are used. Linens, cloths.
serge, flannel, etc., are suitable grounds
for crewel work The miscalled Bayeux
tapestry is embroidered In worsted on a
linen ground. Eleventh century English
tapestry wool is twice the thickness Of
crewels. Useful for bold designs.
Arrasene-A species Of worsted chenille,
used also for broad effects. 1t Is made in
silk as well but is inferior to the
worsted.
Flax Thread-This is a production of
comparatively recent date, which Is glossy,
good in color and durable. This thread

artist to design and make. And here
many an aspiring milliner will meet her
Waterloo. for the little toque when be-
coming Is excessively SO. There is a
breeziness, a bewitching something about
at which dehes description, but it Is that
something which Is Immediately and en-
phatically recognized when seen. But
when it is not becoming, we'll, then it Is
something to be deplored; something to
be banished from sight and forgotten
just as quickly as may be.
- The return to the small hat will make
a stylish and well arranged couture an
absolute necessity at all times. The
long and undisputed reign Of the large
hats Of the picture variety may have
made the fashionable girl a little wee bit
careless sometimes as to her hair, for the
large hat covered up any little struggling
locks which might detract from her ap-
pearance, but with the small toque every
hair must be in its place; the impression
of having just left the hairdresser's
hands must be apparent if she is to- main
tain her prestige as a. we'll groomed, fash
ionable girl.
The new large hats require the pompa-
dour style of hairdressing, therefore the
pompadour still holds its place in the af-
fections of the fashionable; but there is
quite a difference in the way it isf to- be
worn. In accordance with the irregular
outlines Of these large hats the hair will.
too, take the same studied. carelessly
irregular appearance. The wave or loose
curl is to be preferred, but the monoton-
Gus regularity of the Marcel wave--its too
apparent artificiality-has caused 1t to be
banished, for a time at least. a..s.tl.,
The girl who dresses her hair for wear
with the small hat, and in the very latest
style, however, has discarded her pompa-
