I4asSltude General In
Commercial woxld.
NEY YORK. Oct. 24.-Dun's
Weekly Review OF Trade today says:
Ante-electiOn lasaitude is general In
the commercial world. especially as
10 the placing OF contracts for UNDER
takings, but there is a gratifying de-
crease in idle machinery at manu-
featuring plants, testifying to con
adenee IN good demand when the
present uncertainty Is over. Lack Of
rain has been a serious drawback,
low water rstarding mill work and
river shipments. while winter wheat
Is getting a poor start and forest
fires cause great damage.
Collections improve in farming
sections as the crops are sold, but
are still only fair on the whole. Con-
sidering the amount Of business IN
the iron and steel industry that Il
known to be held back until after
election this weeks new orders are
encouraging. although the sales OF
pig iron were at prices most favor
able 10 buyers. Nevertheless the
contracts placed assure activity at
some furnaces well into the future.
While the railroads gre not placing
normal orders by any means, yet
there are new sales Of cars and track
equipment.

BUYS TWO KINDS
OF ASPHALT.
COUNCIL BELIEVES THE ACTION
WILL ENCOURAGE COMPETE
TloN-oTHER BUSINESS.

To encourage competition, the coun-
ell committee on streets has split the
1908 contract for asphalt for the muni-
cipal plant. Bermudez asphalt was.
recommended by Asphalt Expert Proc
tor. He produced figures to show
that the other brands are not as cheap
in practice and telegram from New
Orleans. stating that Obispo asphalt
there. Nevertheless, the Obospo gets
a third OF the contract. 500 tons. while
1000 tons will be Bermudez.
I'VE believed that II we did not give
some one else besides the Bermudex
people a chance. that firms would NOT
bid against them next year. and we
would be where prices could be forced
up on us for lack OF competition. ex--

DEEP SEA DIVING.
A Descent Of Thirty Fathors Marks
the Limit Of Safety.

A Descent Of Thirty Fathonos Marks
the Limit of Safety.
The depth to which a diver can de-
scend is limited by his power for with
standing the pressure of the water.
Apparently a descent Of thirty faith
oms $50 feet of water marks the
limit Of safety for even few divers
who possess the necessary physical
fitness in combina ton with disregard
for danger beyond the average.
Records in deep sea diving have to
be accepted with the proverbial grain
of salt. 1t has been claimed that a
diver reached thirty-three fathoms and
a half while engaged in salvage opera
lions recently on the west coast of
South America, and yet again another
diver working on the same wreck is
reported to have brought up three
bars Of copper from a depth of forty
fathoms at the expense Of his life.
An expert who has superintendent a
large number of diving operations has
found that very few men, whatever
their build, are capable of combating
the severe strain which is brought to
bear upon their physical energies for
a few minutes at a depth of twenty or
thirty fathoms. Many of his divers
dared not venture below ten fathoms.
OF 352 divers employed at greater
depths thirty were seriously injured,
and the result was fatal in ten in
stances.-Harper's.

papering Damp Walls.

An excellent and comparatively in
expensive way to paper damp walls Is
the following: Paint corrugated card
board, such as is sold for packing
bottles, etc, on both sides with as
phalt varnish and fix it when dried
with five-eighths inch tin tacks to the
damp wall SO that the smooth surface
is directed toward the room and the
corrugations run from ceiling to floor
against the wall. At the floor level
one-half inch should be left uncovered.
The cardboard should then be covered
with coarse hessians or other packing
material. on which a plain covering
paper and lastly the wall hangings
may be pasted. The skirting board
should be removed while lacking on
the cardboard, which should have
small holes of an inch in length made
in the raised corrugations at intervals
Of ten to twelve inches before 1t is at
tached to the wall.-Architects and
Builders Journal.

LISTLESS READING.
The Way to Correct This Fault and
Get Beneficial Results.

Tho Way to Correct This Fault and
Get Beneficial Results.
Reading can be made a much great
er source Of pleasure to those who
now only read when they can find no
other pleasures said Columbia uni
versity lecturer on English literature.
you have perhaps noticed with
what keen sense of satisfaction some
people read the newspapers. Do you
went to know the secret of their abil-
ity to extract enjoyment in this way?
Well, you have probably noticed that
those who can so rivet their attention
to the printed page are the ones who
make it a point to talk about what
they have read.
THAT is the secret. Try it. Read
something, then tell some one about
it. Do this with books as well as with
papers. Soon you will notice that in
reading story you fix in your mind
the things you want to relate. You
get the writer's point Of view, then
you fix upon the points he has pre-
scented.
"At the beginning your story telling
will lack the completeness of the story
as written. and you will notice that
your shortcomings In this direction
are due to listless reading. This will
correct itself just to the extent Of
your ambition to become a reader for
all there is in reading. 1 have given
this bit Of advice before and have
been thanked many times by those
who followed my directions. Try it
and mark the results. "-Exchange.
