Cleaning Glass.

A small paint brush with long,
strong, supple bristles is the best
thing with which to keep cut glass
free of dust. 1t is the only means
Of reaching the dust which only
lodges in the small carvings. To
wash cut glass use borax in the
water, and the result will be spark
iipg, shining receptacle that will glis-
ten as brilliantly as it did when new.
If a cruet bottle has become stained
with vinegar sediment, or a vase with
sediment from flowers, or any other
piece of glass which it is hard to
reach into to wash, chop up a raw
potato (peeled) and put it into the
bottle with sufficient water or suds
to just cover the potato; leave 1t for
several hours, giving an occasional
shaking; empty and rinse well; IL
necessary, repeat. Results will be
pleasing.-Florida Agriculturist.

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
DuN's WEEKLY SUMMARY
Demand for Steel Exceeds Supply
and Offers of Premiums Are
Often Refused.

Spring retail trade is backward be-
cause of the unusually late season.
Tardy distribution of merchandise is
also causing complaint of delay in
mercantile collections, but there is a
confidence that most Of the postponed
business will be made up when ther-
NAL conditions become normal
Dealers purchased freely from man.
ufacturers in anticipation of a record
breaking season, and deliveries are
still coming from the mills and fac
tories, with shipments being facilitat-
ed by improved traffic conditions.
Manufacturers are active in all lead
ing industries.
The outlook in the steel business
could hardly be brighter. Projected
building operations promise good
demand for all materials, but numer-
Gus small labor disputes retard activ-
ity in this department. All contro-
versies over wages and hours are not
extensive or alarming.
Only favorable reports are received
from the iron and steel industry.

of premiums offered for prompt de-
livery.
Ore has begun to move freely on
the lakes. Arrangements have been
made for record year, many new
vessels enlarging the carrying capac-
ity.
Pig iron furnaces are producing as
rapidly as possible, and new plants
are in course of construction, but de-
liveries are tardy. Most concerns
have sold their entire output for this
year.
Large orders for cotton ties were
placed at an advance of 10 cents a
bundle. The seasons needs will be
provided for without delay.
Improvement in woolens has re-
ceived check. The market is await
ing developments. Mills are fairly
busy, but the late season is retarding
progress. Extensive preparations
were made for early business, which
has not materialized Duplicate orders
