AII Signs Point TO
Return of Good Times

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-More than
5000 buyers and business men from
all over the country are now in New
York with orders for goods of every
variety for the spring and summer
trade. The great influx of buyers was
expected by the jobbing houses here,
and is said by merchants to be an
evidence of the return of confidence
throughout the country. The gener-
al financial depression last fall and
the consequent small amount Of buy
ing at that time has left merchants
throughout the country short in their
stecks, and for that reason the buy
ers are coming to New York earlier
than usual.
Every hotel in New York that ca
ters to the commercial trade is over
crowded and New York merchants
are in joyous mood at the prospect
of an enormous spring trade.
At least 5000 out of town mer-
chants and their representatives will
buy goods here for the spring trade.
Now the most experienced merchant
in town will tell you that the average
spent by each buyer is $4,000. This
practically means that, with the or
dinary trade. $SO,O00.00O will be
spent in New York by the buyers fol
one spring trade.

CHICAGO, Feb. IA special ,
dispatch to the San Francisco Chron-
icle says that the nation is again on
the high road to prosperity, shown
by reports from all sections of the
country On every hand it is agreed
that the depression following the fin
ancial furry of last fall is thing
of the past and that the outlook is
for steadily increasing volume Of
business until normal conditions have
been reached
In some branches of trade prosper
ity in full measure has been record
ed, and other lines show an improve
ment that promises satisfactory rec
ords at the close of the year.
Following the end of the strin-
gency in money comes an improve
ment in collections and correspond
ing facility of trade. 1t also has
been demonstrated completely that
the general public escaped the effects
resuming operations every day the
number of unemployed is decreasing
and it is believed that before long an
idle mill will be the exception.
Chicago wholesalers report that
country merchants are coming in
with their shipping orders in greater
numbers than year ago. In almost
every case they say that their stocks
are low and must be replenished i'm
mediately to care for the demands
of their customers.
The steel business, recognized as
the barometer of trade in general,
has shown a marked improvement
within the last few weeks Such ar
ticles as wire and nails, which get
to the general public quicker than
other products, are in great demand
and the railroads are coming into the
market for large quantities of sup
plies.
Building material is in better de-
mand, not only steel but other COM
modities The opening of the mills
calls for increased sales of coal and
transactions in provisions indicate
that the public has not lost its ap-
petite.
Even the luxuries of life, where
business felt the depression the most
are in demand and those who proph-
esied a few weeks ago that the foun-
dations of American prosperity were
too firm to feel the effects of a tenn
porary shortage of money are pridine
themselves on their acumen,
Reports received today from Chi
cago merchants and other cities were
: all characterized by the same hope
full tone. The general belief is tina
all danger of period of hard times
has disappeared.
THE outlook is for a bigger bust
ness both in quality and in quantit,
than last year. said Walter ID
Moody, business manager of the Chi
9 cago Association OF Commerce .

The Instinct of pesinn.

When a Japanese cannot moa the shape of an object, when he cannot re- deem 1t by design, when, in fact, he has no control over its creation at all, but 1t is placed in his hands as It Is, finished, says the author of "Kake- mono" he will still contrive to add beauty to 1t merely by arrangement
 q first noticed this on board the steamer golug out" says Mir. Edwards, "where the Japanese boy arranged the extra blanket on the berth in new de- sign each day. He folded 1t into lotus leaves and chrysanthemums, into half opened fans and half shut buds. He had one wonderful arrangement which, being patriotic, was more often repeat ed than the rest. The blankets of the steamship company had at top and bot tom two wavy red lines on white ground. By some wonderful twist Of his fingers the boy would fold that blanket into the rising sun, with the four red lines coming out of It like blood red rays. He did 1t so perfectly that recognized the flag of Japan the moment I saw it."-Youth's Compan- lon.

HUMAN LOVE.
The One Joyous Impulse That Rules

The One Joyous Impulse That Rules
 tho Whole Wide World.
 There lives somewhere in the depths of every human heart the divine spark that we call It is the voice of the universe slumberlng In its narrow cell to be awakened by a whisper or to cry out 10 dear desire and hear the echo Ing answer from another soul. With out 1t life would be a,pale, relentless episode. Without Its qulckenins force no temples would be reared by human hands, yet novels wherein It dwells be- come more glorious than palaces. Am bitiou, fame and fortune are It's slaves It chains the mind in sweet imprison- ment. makes credulIty a guardian queen and lulls suspicion to repOse.
 No censorship of right or wrong can light the way of love, It walks in pathways all Its own. It laughs at reason and dispels despair. It is the usplng word of children, the puzzle of philosophers, the tallsman of rulers. It is the first and last of lire-murmured at the cradle, cherished at the grave. It is the rainbow after tears, the cure for every sorrow, the one joyous im- pulse that rules the whole wide world. Wade Mountfortt in Era Magazine.
