Trade has improved all around, the inn
petus being furnished by the return of
more favorable weather. the presence of
country merchants in leading markets and
the near approach of the Easter holidays.
Interior merchants report stocks quite
low and money plentiful Moreover. the
recent cold snap permitted dealers in
heavy wearing apparel to work off stocks
that promised to become burdensome.
1t is significant that business placed

two months exceeds that of year ago

outlook for the second half of the year

HELPS TRADE IN MOlASSES.

Making of Vinegar Out of Black

Baltimore is getting back small
portion of her molasses trade, which a
quarter OF a century ago was a large
Item In the commerce of the city. In
those good old days before the trusts
molasses-laden schooners were always
to be seen in the harbor, having
brought their cargoes from Louisiana
and Porto Rico. With the forcing from
business of the small bakery by the
big biscuit and cake companies the de-
mand for molasses in large quantities
dropped off until it became unique
event when molasses-laden schooner
made port
While this bakery trade has never
returned, the use of the ordinary Porto
Rico blackstrap molasses for other
purposes has within the last year
brought about resumption of the
trade, and during the last season no
fewer than five large cargoes of mo-
lasses have come to port, with mere to
follow.
The large four masted schooner Rob-
ert Fl. McCurdy has lately been in port
unloading a big cargo from San Juan,
Porto Rico. Her cargo consists of
3,OOS barrels of blackstrap. AS is the
custom, the barrels are rolled to Bow
ley's wharf and placed on their sides.
With her cargo almost completely dis
charged the McCurdy's molasses bar
rels cover little more than an acre.
This molasses. a great percentage of
which is alcohol, Is now used by two
Baltimore firms for the manufacture
Of vinegar. 1t is not generally known
that the best table vinegar is not made
any more from hard cider 1t is only
in recent years that blackstrap mo-
! lasses has been used for this purpose.
Well-known wholesale grocers are au-
thority for the statement that this vim
egar is of the best quality. 1t is likely
that from now on the molasses schoon-
ers will be making port every three
weeks during the season.-Baltimore

All Honor To the Annie.

The apple is splendid fruit, al
though particular specimens of 1t are
bum. The different varieties have a
pronounced individuality. The personal
equation is prominent. The difference
between the Porter and the Baldwin

magnltude-is as marked as the differ
ence between a Connecticut bank clerk
and Kentucky colonel. The man who
invented or discovered the Baldwin
conferred on humanity a boon and he
did more TO tickle the palate than has
ever been realized.
OF many uses Is the apple capable.
Whether 1t is eaten raw or converted
into sauce or made the basic element
of pie or subjected to other forms of
artistic treatment by the American
housewife 1t serves useful and Inn
pOrtant purpose.
History has never done adequate JUS
tice to the apple. Poets have never ade-
quately celebrated In song the virtues
of the fruit. Political economists have
never fully recognized the full part
that the apple plays In the affairs Ok
men.-Hartford Times.

MiddIe-Aged Woman in society.


An entertaining old lady whose

some i-npatience: Because the Lord

she mourned the late Banbury most
sincerely. but her active mind chafed
at narrowness of environment
which accentuated her loneliness. In
fact, it is hardship to be condemned
to. One-sided social life, and it is a
misfortune which happens to many
middle-aged women and need scarcely
ever happen to a man Of any age for
ordinarily man can have as much
feminine society as he chooses, but
what will the neighbors say about an
elderly woman who announces that in
order to preserve a whole and healthy
view of life she must seek the society
of men?
II will hardly he disputed that the
exclusively feminine is worse than the
exclusively masculine point of view.

they regain the shelter OF the domestic
fireside; and the tales of Bret Harte

with the rude heroes of the mining
camp and the plains. But does the
naval officer. welded TO law, or the
miner. divorced from it. show as great
a departure from the normal human
type as the woman who is shut up with
other women?
OF course. there are as many points
of view as there are men and women !;
one should always remember that
underneath all there is the human
point of view. and that people resem-
BILE each other more than they differ !;
yet. when all allowances have been
made. some well-recognized dissimilari-
ties do seem to be fundamental. Ev
erybody knows, for instance, that a
woman has not usually much sense of
proportion; but as to that, does every
body realize how destructive to a sense
of proportion of purely domestic life
is-that life which. for so long, consti-

Eve may not have been lacking in 1t

most apt to lapse when she turns her
attention on herself. For the average
woman is inclined to take herself quite
seriously. Magazine.

Four Great Women.


There are four women who ought to
be brought to public notice while they
are still in active life. One is the moth
e. of the DIR. Osler, who, already a Gel
ebrated physician, became famous by
reason of being credited with the state
ment that man does not grow in power
after 40, and that his usefulness ceases
al 60.
Mrs. Osler has just celebrated her
one hundredth birthday. She has reared
four very distinguished sons and one
daughter, has twenty six grandchildren
and one great-grandchild, and is still
leading useful and comparatively ac-
tive life Another is Mrs. Mary E.
Farrell, who has just ended her one
hundred and third year.
She has reared eleven children. has
fifteen grandchildren and twelve great
grandchildren. She has never been i'll
day in her life, is still DALI worker
about the house, active in hody and
witty in mind A third is Mrs. Susan
Askey, who on her one hundred and
first birthday went to church In an
automobile, made an address to the
audience, and held reception In the
evening. She also has borne eleven
children.
The fourth is Mrs. Franklin C0ttle,
who at % years of age went through
thrilling experiences at the late San
Francisco disaster, arrived fresh and
strong i'm New York week or two
later, and now, as erect as at 20 and
as alert as at CO. she is about to start
on a 200-mile automobile ride from
New York to Boston.-The Delineator.

Swapping, stitching and bit of hand
embroidery are used as trimming for
many OF the little girls coats. Braid
ing Is seen occasionally, but not upon
the best models.
A new veil is of colored let, edged
with frills Of little ostrich feathers.
These are worn only with hats of the
same color and preferably feather
trimmed chapeaux.
A Partisan authority says that ap-
pearances point to the vogue for dark
green shades in straws for the coming
season. These will be closely followed
by gray and violet.
The newest waistcoats are Of striped
silk. They have sleeves and are kept
ON when the cloth coat is removed,
harmonzing in color with the gown,
and forming jaunty little jackets.
A smart tie is band Of valenciennes

fine laces are the most used for this
fashion. Rare old pieces of lace are
making their appearance In these

There is again a craze for fancy
stocks of all kinds to freshen up blOuses

There is one made of heavy linen

that reach almost to the bust.
Eyelet embroidery done with coarse
linen thread depicts conventional de-

Another cunning little neel1piece is
made of antique embroidery and be-
frilled with narrow lace.
A contrivance of crosswise folds OF
velvet forming short V-shaped bib
has the openings filled in with silk
spiderwebs. Originality distinguishes
the girl who embroiders the buttons
for her silk blouse with secret insignia,
monograms or fraternity emblems.

Favored by the mild weather which
prevailed, trade generally reflects season
able gain in activity. Retail sales make
an excellent comparison with those in
same month last year, when the total
was exceptionally large, AMI the reduction
of winter stocks has been comfortably
effective.
Contracts for future production in the
leading industries are well maintained,
particularly in iron and steel, rolling
stock, wood and leather working. Raw
materials continue in rapid absorption,
with prices firmer locally for pig iron,
metals and hard woods. A slight decline
is seen in hides.
Freight movements are augmented by
increasing outputs of the carshops, FORCES
and foundries, and of the furniture, box
and footwear makers. and the shipments
of staple goods have become heavier to
many interior points. Visiting buyers ex-
coed the numbers of a year ago, and
bookings make better showing in dry
goods, household wares, cloaks and suits,
childrens clothing, furnishings and boots
and shoes. Demands appear heavier in

ity in hardware. machinery and imple-
ments for the farms.
No important defaults disturb the
steadiness of credits. and failures in this
district have not for a long time been
so low in both number and amount.
Earnings of the Chicago steam roads,
while surprising those of year ago, are
more affected by higher cost of operation.
Liberal orders are yet issued for new
equipment, and current additions to ca
pacity aid facilities, but freight offerings
remain excessive and disputes as to
wages cause some anxiety as to deliveries
of merchandise for early consumption.
Lumber receipts rose to 40,675.000 feet,
and compare with 37,725.000 feet last
week and 33.497 900 feet year ago. Re-
ceipts of hides declined to 2,4S6.052
