Weekly Review Of Trade and Latest
Market Reports.

New. York; 6. Dun L CO.'S
Weekly of Trade SAYS:
Although the average of the 60
most active railway securities fell
during the week to the lowest point
since 1904, there was no correspond
ing reaction in commercial activity,
which continued beyond precedent.
Reports from leading manufacturing
centers indicate that scarcely any
idle machinery can be found, prepar-
ations for future trade evidencing
confidence in well maintained con-
sumption, Forward business is most
extensive in the iron and steel manu-
facture and the cotton industry, but
ether prominent producers have lib
eral contracts on hand also, and the
mercantile outlook is bright. Whole
sale houses receive large contracts
for spring delivery, especially in dry
goods lines and the settled winter
weather has produced wholesome
reduction in retail stocks of heavy
weight wearing apparel and other
seasonable merchandise.
Notable strength is still the feature
in the primary markets for cotton
goods, and predictions of further ad-
vances are being realized constantly,
despite apparent precedents to the
contrary A general resume of the
situation discloses a level of prices
and scarcity of supplies that has not
existed since the Civil War, while
there is the additional factor of no
element threatening weakness, al
though quotations are conceded to be
abnormally high.
Commodity markets have shown
very little activity during the past
week, and variations in prices were

The power of the country press
il Washington surprises me-" said a
middlewest congressman last winter.
During my two terms | have been
impressed with it constantly. /
doubt if there is a single calm ut
terance in any paper in the United
States that does not carry some
weight in Washington among the
members of Congress. You might
think that what some little country
editor says does not amount to any
thing, but it means great deal
more than most peopl realize.
When the country editor, who is
looking after nothing but the county
printing, gives expression TO some
rational idea about a national ques-
ton, the man off here in Congress
knows that it comes from the grass
roots. The lobby, the big railroad
lawyers and that class of people real
ize the power of the press, but they
hate it. l have heard them talk
about it and shake their heads and
say, Too much power there!' The
press is more powerful than money.
This is not said in f1attery, but
because he had seen on congress
mems desks the heaps of country
weeklies, and he knew how closely
they were read. The smallest editor
ial paragraph tells the politician of
the condition in that papers COM
munity, for he knows that it is put
there because the editor has gathered
the idea from someone whom he
trusts as leader--and the politi-
clan knows approximately who that
leader is. So the country editor Of
ten exerts power of which he knows
little.-From the Atlantic.

The Knockout Blow.

The blow which knocked out Corbett

From the earliest days of the ring the
Knockout blow was aimed for the jaw,

had told one of the old fighters that the
most vulnerable spot was the region of
the stomach, he'd have laughed at him
for an ignoramus. DR.. Pierce is bringing

For a number of years." says a
Kansas lady, IT felt sure that coffee
was hurting me, and yet I was so
fond of it I could not give 1t up. I

course yielded to the temptation to
drink more. At last got so bad that
made up my mind l must either quit
the use of co ee or die.
Everything ate distressed me,

FEARFUL BURNING SORES.
Boy in Misery 12 Years-Eczema in
Rough Scales, Itching and In
fiamed-Cured by Cuticura.


Il wish to inform you that your won
derful Cuticura hes put stop to twelve
years of misery l passed with my son. As
an infant noticed on his body red spot
and treated same with different remedies
for about five years, but when the spot
began to get larger put him under the
care of doctors. Under their treatment
the disease spread to four different parts
of his body. The longer the doctors treated
him the worse it became. During the day
it would get rough and form like scales.
At night it would be cracked, infamed and
badly swollen, with terrible burning and
itching. When l think of his suffering, it
nearly breaks my heart. His screams
could be heard downstairs. The suffering
of my son made me full Of misery. / had
no ambition to work, to eat, nor could l
sleep. One doctor told me that my sons
eczema was incurable, and gave it up for a
bad job. One evening saw an article in
the paper about the wonderful Cuticura
and decided to give it a trial. 1 tell you
that Cuticura Ointment is worth its weight
in gold, and when l had used the first box
of Ointment there was great improve
ment, and by the time l had USED the

The Sleeping Baby's smile"

1t is interesting to see how old is
The material delusion about the smil-
Ing of babies in their sleep. All
children, asleep, are taken with a
catching of the corners of the mouth.
which is as unlike as possible to
the real smile-the humorous and
delightful little silent sketch of
laugh, appearing first at any age
between a fortnight and month.
Yet human sentimentality has in
sisted on calling the sleeping grimace
(due to flatulence) smile, and
even smile caused by dreams of
angels. And Saint Monica must
have been as unintelligent on this
point as any other matron, for Saint
Augustine, reviewing in his Con
fessions" the growth of his own
mind, mentions that he had been
told of the coming of infantine
smiles, having appeared previously
in Sleep" Thackery echoes Saint
Monica, for he shows us Amelia sit
ting by her child, ''who was smiling
in his Sleep No baby ever smiled
in his sleep yet, or is ever likely to
do so-London Chronicle.

Paving Penwipers.

1t Is said that the ingenious young
woman who invented the frilly doll
penwipers has made money out of
her idea. A clothespin is the nucleus
of each penwiper. With this as the
anatomical frame she produces
brides, actresses, nuns, nurses-la-
dies, in short, of every degree. In
order to conceal the clothespin ex-
tremities long skirts in sumptuous
folds characterize the gowns of Miss
Penwiper, and the banker, the law
yer and author wipe their pens on
her petticoats.
According to Brooklyn Life, the
fame of these ladies has spread and
now their inventor has a partner
and a factory.
