tireIv favorable. The Steel Corporation is now
operating "A per cent Of its capacity. and has or
dered the resumption of the Riverside plant OF the

The strike on the lakes is annoying. but over two
hundred vessels are in commission, that number
being more than enough to meet the requirements
of ore trade. In the East the pig iron market in
foundry grades is fairly active somewhat higher

TREATS SICK BABY ON CAR
Father of Eighteen, Familiar with ChiIdren's Ailments, Saves
 Infants Life.

New York-James Maher is the fa- ther of IS children and what he doesn't know about convulsions, measles, humps, whooping cough, and such things wouldn't take a doctor long to learn. Maher also is inspector for the Coney Island & Brooklyn rail- way.
 A young mother had young baby in street car the other afternoon and the infant got convulsions and the mother got mysteries, and the other women in the car got into the street The motorman stopped the car.
 Here" yelled Maher as he got aboard and took in the situation, ''get to that drug store on the corner quick and bring back some mustard and a dishpan of hot water"
 The motorman soon was back with them.
 Maher swiftly took the baby's clothes off and had it's feet in a hot mustard bath, while the women gath cred about and wondered why none of them had thought of it.
 You've saved the kids life," said a surgeon from Seney hospital.

The Sea and the Heart

'The sea- said Clyde Fitch, "has an intoxicating effect on the heart. Love affairs conducted on shipboard or on the beach are apt to be very passionate, also very transitory. .
 Hence, whether at sea or at the shore, when 1 hear of some engage ment that seems ill-advised, I con- sole myself with the story of Charlie and his aunt.
 Charlie was a dashing college boy. He had three motors, and he was heir to four millions. When he got engaged at Bayhead to a penntless artists daughter, his aunt was very much shocked.
 Charlie she said, I can't pre- tend to be pleased with your en- gagem ent. Quite the contrary, in fact. I'm sure sbe wouldn't make a good wife
 "'Oh. Tn sure sha wouldn't, too Charlie heartily agreed But you've no idea, aunt, how perfectly delic- ious she is as fiancee.' "-Detroit Journal.

STOP BURNING ALIVE

after they had been placed in the waiting mortuaries.
 Curious cases of death commercials were narrated by Dr. Hadwen from his own experience. During the Gloucester smallpox epidemic of 1896 a child believed to be dead of con- fluent smallpox was removed from hos pital to the mortuary. Next day a gardener passing by the window of the mortuary heard the cries of the child. The little one was carried back to the ward and recovered
 In another case Dr. Hadwen had been attending child of three suffer- ing from convulsions with subsequent exhaustion. There seemed no hope of recovery, and he left the little patient one night thinking he had seen him for the last time.
 Next day when the doctor reached the cottage the blinds were drawn and the broken-hearted parents were weep ing by the side of the little body, which lay covered with a white sheet, and the undertaken was expected to bring the coffin in few minutes Looking down at the supposed dead child, the doctor fancied he could de- tect the slightest movement of the chest. He tried the pulse, but failed to detect beat. A stethoscope re- vealed heart beat, and after hot f1annels had been applied and the body massaged for three hours the child was able to take nourishment

OLD WORLD FAST DRYING UP
Many Small Lakes Have Disappeared Entirely and Larger Ones Are
 Dwinding Rapidly.

Berlin.-According to inquiries the result of which is published in the Umschau, central Europe seems to be drying up, as is East Russia and West Asia. Comparisons of the num- Der and size of lakes show hundreds of cases of complete disappearance. and many more of diminution or area partly caused, of course, by sitting up By comparing map Of Zurich Can. ton, made in 1860, with the conditions today, Herr Walser shows that of 14e lakes only 40 remain unchanged 36 have more or less dwindled in size and 73 small lakes have completely disappeared.
