Emergency Treatment.

If one is ever seized with sudden
hemorrhage from the lungs the first
thing to be done, before the doctor gets
there, is to take dry salt as quickly as
possible. This often prevents further
bleeding entirely. A tablespoonful of
salt is not too much to take, provided
it is done gradually so as not to choke.
The patient should, moreover, keen
perfectly quiet and free from excite.
ment and stay in room not too hot.

To Keen Rug Straight.

If the edges of your rug seem hope
lessly curled. turn it over and thor
oughly moisten the curled portions.
Let it remain fat and upside down I'M
til perfectly dry. You will be delight
ed to see when you turn it back that
it is as fat and shapely as a new rug.
Sometimes the dressing has entirely
gone from the edges, in which case it is
best to apply a coat Of glue, after
moistening, and allow to dry thor
oughly before turning back.

BETTER TONE
IN THE MARKET
WALL STREET CHEERED BY
SIGNS OF THE RETURN OF NOR
NAL CONDITIONS.

NEW YORK March 15.-The prevail
ing opinion reflected in the financial
district last week was of increased
confidence that the condition of affairs
was mending. Evidences were not uni
versal that contraction had run its
course, but from fields that were con-
sidered most significant the signs of
betterment were accepted as testimony
that the situation was shaping opinion
on the general situation.
Scattering reports of resumption of
work by factories which had suspend
ed or largely reduced operations DUR
ing the depth of the depression, al
though mixed with evidence of fuc-
Their curtailment in other directions,
were cheering factor. Especially in
the iron and steel trade the reports of
reopenings were notable. The advance
in the price of copper, which had been
falling since the decision to reopen the
Butte copper production, gave some re-
$1,000 INV " b4C COlluuGuC6 III lLl-
provement in that trade, which was
expressed in the reopening in Mon
tana. The declining money rates here
and abroad were an element in the
situation, and the discrepancy in
money rates here and in Europe in
duced some investment of foreign
funds in New York. This was mostly
confined to high-grade mortgage Sc
/ curities and to some takings of mer-
camille paper. Buying for foreign ac-
count was perceptible, however, in the
stock market, and the presence in for
eign capitals of some of the most in
fiuential American financiers revived
the supposition that foreign buying OF
stocks was not unrelated to this cir
cumstance.
The easing of the money market and
the stirring of activity in stocks
brought into consideration the subject
of financial needs of the great cor
porations which remain unsupplie1
and which insure attempts to float new
issues of securities in the near flu
ture. The market for existing bonds
was studied to discern a reflection Of
this improvement in the general bond
market, but with results somewhat
disappointing. The bond market lack
ed breadth and the prices at which
seasoned bonds are still selling do not
make a propitious condition for the
offerings of new securities.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 21.-D. W..
Stevens diplomatic adviser to the
Korean Council of State, was an ar
rival yesterday on the Nippon Maru,
returning on a leave of absence after
Ia service of several years in Japan and
Korea. Stevens was at one time sec
rotary of the American Legation at
Toxic, and later was attached to the
Japanese Legation at Washington. In
1904, under the treaty between Japan
and Korea, he was appointed to his
present position.
Stevens says the Korean people have
been greatly benefited by the Japanese
protection and that they are beginning
! to look more favorably on it. He says
the Japanese are doing for the Koreans
what America is doing for the Philip
pines. Continuing, he said
you can get some idea of the con-
dition of Korea before the war from
the statement that the Government
was spending 100000 yen annually
on a standing army and 10000 yen on
public education. The people are di-
vided into two classes, the peasantry
| and the official classes. The former
was ground down until nothing but a
bare existence was left from their la
Dor, while the official class was thor
oughly corrupt
"The peasants have welcomed the
Japanese, while the official class has
not, but even the officials are begin
ming to see that the only hope for the
country lies in reorganization Of the
old institutions"
Stevens says he expects to return to
Korea in a few months, but he is not
certain whether he will resume his po-
sition. He was accorded an official re-
ception yesterday by Charles Stephens
acting for the Collector of the Port
