Already the price readjustments are
beginning to work toward the ex.
pected Improvement in demand, and
this and President Tafts inaugural
declarations favorable to that meas.
ure OF stability" which is Essential
to the life and growth of all business
are important contributions to fnan.
cial and trade confidence. and make
stronger the hope of full industrial re.
covery. Both in sentiment and
amount Of new business in sight the
iron and steel trade shows some gain.
New business that is being figured on
aggregates good volume. Dullness
is still pronounced In pig iron.
In spite OF the upward tendency of
raw material, buyers of cotton goods
make determined effort to secure a
lower level of quotations. No new
business reported In wooden goods,
but 1t is believed that buyers will
eventually need requirements. Dress
goods are generally well sustained
with staple lines leading in strength.

Literature In Our Homes

No one enjoys Ceading more than
women do; intact, we are told that II
women who are not genuinely fond of
reading many papers could not exist.
But ofttimes they must wait until the
quiet Of the day, when others are
asleep, before they can read. II 1t were
not for books, magazines and papers,
women would be denied many pleas
urable moments, since they can learn
what the other half OF the world is
doing. though they must remain at
home. II we were all suddenly denied
the delights OF the press, we would feel
poor indeed, even with every other
blessing. Many women who love travel
never get beyond their own home
boundary But who can hold the spirit
that. follows the traveller in books?
We can shaekle the body, but not the
heart, and soul, of a woman who
reaches out for facts concerning the
world in which she lives. Given good
books. women who are privileged, or
await an opportunity to read, are less
lonely and those who do not know the
blessings of good literature. Books
and papers are an outlet to a new
world, and while this world has its
limitations, the woman who really and
truly enjoys literature Is happy in any
humble little nook, II she can sill and
follow the lives OF others In the un-
known world around her.
