COurtship i'm Ireland.

An Irish boy marries when he has
a rid house, and an Irish girl lust

pleases while yet her years are few;
at other times she is content to wait
upon wisdom. In the latter case, of
course, she makes wise choice; but
In the former almost always a lucky
one-for Luck is the guardian angel
of the Irish.

pleaded that she should grant Laur-

mother, I'll cure meself Of that

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
BUSINESS IN METALS TARDY
Some Activity in Textile Lines, but
Tariff Uncertainty Holds
Back Everything.

New York.-R. D. Dun & Co.'s
weekly Review of Trade" says:
Improvement in the structure OF
business is much more pronounced
than improvement in the activity Of
business. While financial and po-
litical developments, both in Europe
and the United States, are distinctly
better, the progress toward the Gag
erly expected revival Of trade is slow,
and, especially in the iron, copper
and coal trades, is disappointing. The
strength of the situation still lies In
the fact that stocks are in no extend
ed state. Cotton goods are firm.
Woolen goods are chiefly active in
the better grades of fancy worsteds.
Domestic hides are weaker and the
shoe trade is very dull. 1t is note
worthy that trade reports are gener-
centers than in the Eastern cities.
Continued firmness of ram mater
ial indicates little likelihood of re-
vision of prices in cotton goods, and
some lines even show a tendency to
advance, although trade generally is
quiet. There is no resumption in
the export demand, but the fact that
China has already taken $4,000 bales
since the first Of December, as
against 10000 bales during the en-
tire year of 1908, materially strength
ems this branch of the market. In
the woolen goods market activity at
present is centered on the better
grades of fancy worsteds, it now be-
ing evident that this division will oc-
cupy prominent position during the
entire season.
"The footwear market Is decidedly
dull, mail orders being infrequent
and the jobbing trade buying only to
meet immediate requirements"

Thin woods, very attractive for

The Ingenuity Of Inventors.

The ingenuity of inventors and
manufacturers Is ever at work In the
endeavor to reduce the expense OF
production, and at the same time to
Improve the quality of articles having
a large sale. This is not only benef-
cial to the purchasing public, but 1t
inures to the benefit of the producer
in increasing sales and preventing
competition. This has been so In the
case Of farm machinery, clothing,
shoes, bicycles, etc., and now 1t is ap-
parent In the safety razor field. Thou
sands of this style Of razor have been
sold at from $3.50 to IS each and CIV
en- satisfaction. Recently manufac-
turers have applied more scientific
principles and improved methods in
their manufacture, and the result is
seen In the "Shrp Shavr" razor, which
is sent postpaid for twenty-five cents
in stamps by the Book Publishing
House, 1874 Leonard street, New
York. 1t is superior to any razor
sold, being bought largely by those
already owning the highest priced
razors. Not every one knows that
the best results are obtained by hay
ing two or three razors and alternat-
Ing them in use. This practice OF al
ternatlng possibly accounts for the
very large sale Of this low priced i'm
plement.

Sewing Cure For Nervousness.

Now that an eminent specialist
has asserted sewing is conducive to
quiet and well-ordered nerves, 1t is
probable many women will renew
their interest in the art of the needle.
But 1t is not likely a majority of
women active in society will follow
the specialists advice, for they have
time only for the quest of pleasure.
However, society women are only a
small factor in the feminine world,
and to many others the words of the
specialist will come as timely warn
ing. Sewing has been neglected since
the time of our mothers. There are
comparatively few women who now
pride themselves upon their skill
with the needle. On the contrary,
interest has been given to trashy nov
els, trashy plays, bridge and other
distractions. This specialist says 1t
it time for American women to call
halt on their nerve-racking pace,
and points out truly they may find
not only rest for their nerves, but
positive pleasure, in embroidery or
other kinds of needlework. He
makes an important distinction,
however. He warns women that
quiet sewing, with the body we'll re-
laxed, is conductive to good health
and even temper, but the plying of
the needle under any strain, such as
poor light or cramped position, is
baneful in its effects. So welcome
to the needle as a household imple-
ment once more! Was It not George
Eliot in her wisdom who said that a
woman never is more at home with
herself than when she is sewing?-

way Of barrettes. 1t is a huge affair
compared to the barrettes that have
been and still continue to be popu-

that adapts itself to the support of
the different forms of fashionable

College Girls as Innkeepers.

Two young women, graduates of
Wellesley, have earned comfortable
incomes in the last ten years from a
tearoom in the village near the col
lege. The idea sprang from the need
they themselves experienced for a
resting place and stimulating cup
when shopping in the village. Before
their graduation they rented quar-
ters, and after leaving college, gave
all their attention to the little place.
The success of the venture was great.
Now the tearoom has been incorpor-
ated under the name Wellesley Inn.
The inn is exclusively for women, es-
pecially for the Wellesley students.
