one sentence the distinctive difference
between the society of ancient Rome
and that of the present day in Amer

young fellow replied:

IMPROVEMENT is GRADUAL
Not Expanded in Proportion to
Growing Confidence.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of
Trade says:
Gradual imprn*ement in the COM
mercial situation is encouraging, al
though the volume of trade has not
expanded in proportion to the growth
of confidence. Resumption of work at
manufacturing plants is the best evi-
dence of progress, the number of UNI
employed steadily, though slowly, di-
minishing. Scarcity of water is an
adverse influence at several points.
Several returns for the last week ex,
hibited little or no loss as compared
with similar figures for 1907, notably
shoe shipments, flour output and bank
exchanges at some points.
Steel mills have more business in
sight, although it is believed that
many large undertakings will not be
closed until after the election. Plans
are numerous, however, and much of
the contemplated work will material
ize. A current factor Of value is the
increased demand by the railways for
both rolling stock and equipment.

Woman's Curiosity.

"Woman's curiosity" said Mr..
Fletcher, is quality of mind beyond
human understanding"
Yes said Mrs. Fletcher. What
made you think of that?"
1.-THE fool actions of woman that |
saw downtown today. She followed a
man ten blocks just to get to read a
placard that was fastened to his back.
She spotted him at Thirty fourth
street That was really the end of her
trip--I made that out from something
she said to another woman who was
too fat to join in the chase-but when
she caught sight Of that flaming red
poster tied to the mans back her GU
riosity got the better of her and she
set out after him. He led her quite a
chase across town and downtown and
back again, but she never weakened.
She tagged faithfully along in his
wake, and finally she got close enough
to read that notice.
Mrs. Fletcher reflected moment.
''What did it say?' she asked.
'.It advised her to get her teeth pull
ed somewhere on Sixth avenue"
: Mrs. Fletcher thought again.

The Porcelain Secret.

The porcelain industry Of Germany
is comparatively young, says the Berlin
Morgen Post, and its development was
rapid. Although it is generally believed
that the Chinese kept their processes
of manufacture secret, Julian's transla-
lions of their voluminouS encyclopedia
show that this is not true. All who
could have read the work might have
known also the porcelain secret. But
evidently no German fathomed the me-
chanical mystery until the apothecary's
apprentice Boettgar, 200 years ago,
made the first German porcelain at
Dresden. Some years before he had
attracted attention by proclaiming the
discovery of a method of changing
base metal into gold. King Frederick
I. gave him orders for the precious
metal, which the siXteen-year-old in
ventor could not execute and in fear
he fed to Dresden and became a sub
ject of King August the Strong. While
endeavoring to make gold he discover
ed the porcelain secret and inscribed
his door thus: Into a potter was
changed by Almighty God man who
thought he could make gold"

STORY OF THE WITHDRAWAL
Taft Refused to ''Hit a Man When He
Is Down."

Is Down..
TIE interesting details of just how
Foraker came to withdraw from partic-
ipation in the Republican club
league rally have been disclosed au-
oritatively. On the morning of the
first publication of the Hearst disclos-
ures (Friday) Senator Dick went to
Cincinnati from Columbus. After CON
ference with Foraker he went to the
Taft residence, where he had an inter-
view with the candidate, at which the
situation was discussed frankl.. No
conclusions were reached, but ID TX oh
tanned the distinct impression lat in
view of the circumstances the al astion
of the joint appearance of TAFT and
Foraker was one which required con-
sideration.
In this connection the arrival of Sen
ator Crane on Saturday morning was
noted, and the Junior Ohio senator in
Dictated that he should take up the mat
ter with his Massachusetts colleague.
After Crane. Foraker and Dick had
conferred Saturday morning the letter
in which Foraker eliminated himself
from the meeting was taken to the
Pike street residence by Crane. The
suggestion was made, after further
consideration, that the letter properly
should be addressed to John Hays
Hammond, president of the National
League of Republican Clubs, under
whose jurisdiction the meeting in
question was being arranged, for the
reason that as the candidate had no
control over the arrangements, further
correspondence would be necessary.
Throughout the negotiations Judge
Taft refused absolutely to comment
for publication on the matter. 1t has
since developed that he had at once
taken the position that the joint en-
gagement must be Cancelled. 1t has
also developed that the candidate re-
ceived insiStent advice to take the mi
tiative in the matter of cancelling the
arrangements, and that his reply was
emphatic in this language: IF it
would win me every vote in the Unit
ed States l cannot hit man when
he is down."
With reference to the $4,000 which
he received from John d. Archbold
Foraker says that upon consulting the
/. files at washington through his seere
tary. who is there, he finds that he Dor
rowed that much from Archbold In
1902 to lend to a friend who had an
option on the Ohio State Journal For
alyor cavc no did NOT have the money
himself. and applied to Archbold. The
deal fell through and Foraker return
ed the money to Archbold. He fortlfies
his statement with the letter he wrote
Archbold returning the money ano
stating that the deal for the paper hac
fallen through. He says he got nc
profit at all out of the matter, which
was simply an accommodation to
newspaper friend.

matter by the warden. The four were
