The Worlds Population,

Much is made of the fact that the
population of France is decreasing.
Is 1t because We all shall be losers,
If the death rate of that country con-
tinues to exceed the birth rate! Or
is it because the rest of the world
is especially fond of the French? Or
is 1t because we fear that some day
the population of the earth will be
so small that human beings will not
be numerous enough to combat wild
beasts and and other evils which are
successfully combated today?
Whatever may be the feelings with
which the rest of mankind beholds
the steady decline of the French peo-
pie in numbers. the fact is there are
still people enough on this planet
for while the population of France
has increased only 100000 since
1851. that of Germany had increased
30,000,O00.
Would 1t not be better then, to
look on both sides of the population
picture? 1t also might be well to
consider this fact: II the French peo.
pie have done their turn on this
planet, the planet may have to recon
cile itself to seeing them disappear
or mingle with some other race

Weekly Review of Trade and
Market Reports.

r. G.. Dun C Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade says:
Crop news continues encouraging,
the iron and steel market improves,
while foreign trade now shows an
excess of exports, and in these three
Important particulars the business
outlook is distinctly better.
There Is further improvement In
iron, with increased inquiry at the
leading producing centers More
orders have been placed for pig
iron, and the tonnage already book
ed for delivery during the secor,
half of the year Is heavy. Existing
quotations are considered very low,
and in consequence there is less dis
position on the part of consumers
to defer purchases in expectation Of
concessions.
The primary dry goods markc
still reflect light trading. but agents
handling cotton goods lines are hold
ing prices generally firm. Jobbers
in Western markets have been shad-
ing prices at clearance sales to re-
duce stocks preliminary to stock TAX
ing, while announcement is made by
q large Eastern house that the usual
semi-annual clearance sales will be
omitted on the ground that costs of
replacement are above current val
ues. Staple printed goods are sell
ing in small lots, but Western ad-
vices state that business promises
ITO be better next month, and there
is more inquiry for denims and
colored goods. Miscellaneous ex-
port trade in cotton goods holds up
well Mems woolens rule quiet, but
a little better business is noted in
some parts of the dress goods mar
ket, warmer weather stimulating in
terest in seasonable merchandise.
| The feature from the producers
standpoint, is the substantial in
| crease in curtailment.
New orders for fall footwear con-
tinue small. and the situation is gen
orally unsatisfactory. Trade in leath-
er continues dull and prices on most
descriptions are weak.

Prnfectinn -nf birds

AS matter of course, the subject
receiving the most attention from the
fifth annual ornithological congress
at Berlin has been the protection of
birds, and 1t appears to have been
the sense of the convention that the
species of protection most needed Is
against the destruction of birds for
the use of milliners. It Is a question,
however, If the sacrifice OF feathered
creatures for utilitarian purposes is
Dy and means as great as that which
is made in pure wantonness, for no
other reason than for the sake OF
Killing. Almost everywhere there are
laws prohibiting the wanton slaught-
er of birds. Their enforcement how.
ever, Is rarely sufficient to serve as
a preventive. Here and there a
game warden runs down an offender
but such instances are rather the ex.
ception than the rule. The trouble
seems to be that the use of firearms
Is too common. The irresponsible
individual who possesses a gun or
pistol has a desire to use It, and
If game that is worth while and that
may legally be killed is not within
his reach, the chances are that he
will blaze away at the first little
feathered victim that comes In sight
AS a consequence, small birds are
fast disappearing from the vicinity
of our towns and villages

ExciteS Their InereSt-They Tell Each Other

bank. Instead It was to the mutual
interest of all the banks to eliminate
the undesirable borrowers from the
common field.
So the wholesaler went from bank
to bank attempting to borrow, and
was amazed at the unanimity of the
refusal. 1t is doubtful whether he
ever knew the real reason. He did
awake to the fact, however, that his
business was not as we'll organized
for leisure as he had supposed. He
got down to hard work before he
cleaned up his bank Indebtedness.
An Eastern manufacturer of a sta
pie line had long enjoyed fair line
of credit at his bank. Now for sew
eral months his loans increased: he
did not seem willing to clean up. Part
of his account matured. He wanted
to renew. The banker asked him
why he wasn't reducing his line,
whether his business was falling off,
whether he had any drains on his cap
ital.
The manufacturers answer was ex-
| panding business. more outstanding
accounts - entirely optimistic. Too
optimistic, the banker concluded. He
started his credit man on quiet in
vestigation
He discovered that the manufactu-
rer was spending only half his time
at his office; the other half he de-
voted to another manufacturing con-
cern In the city. Through the latter's
bank it was learned that the manu-
facturer owned a $4,000 interest in
the new industry. This he had never
reported in his statements. The
banker sent for him and asked an
explanation.
"The founder of this business was
an old friend of mine," he explained.
''He owned patents on plumbing de-
vices that had big market, but he
lacked capital. He offered me
chance to invest some of my earn
ings. 1t looked good, so I went in.
1t is good, too
But you were borrowing money
from u.s." protested the banker, "and
were under obligations at least to
keep us informed of your invest
ments. You were investing our
money in this other concern, for you
were putting there what you need for
your own expansion and trying to
borrow from u.s.
| 81 considered your claims we'll Sc
cured" the manufacturer answered,
"and did not want to figure just yet
in this plumbing concern. / was
afraid my creditors would not all un-
derstand the proposition and it
might hurt my business"
1t did hurt his business. The bank,
its faith in him lost, forced him to
settle. This drained the ready cash
of the second concern, and its bank
refused further favors. Just then
new competition developed in the
plumbing devices. At the time it
needed help most it couldn't get it.
Within two years it was forced to sell
out at loss.
The manufacturer himself found
his credit damaged. The banks, in
touch with each other through their
credit departments, were not inclined
to loan. He was forced to an assign
ment. Had this man played abso-
lutely open with his bank and told it
his plans both concerns would doubt
less have been properly financed. The
bank wants to know, and deception
by silence wins its distrust as fast as
dishonesty.

Words That Are Out OF Style.

Many old English words have fall
en- from their high estate and are
now banned in the best society, at
any rate in Mayfair and Belgravia.
OF these is the Saxon word lady"
which we are told is derived from
"loafgiver,"
In 1910 we speak of a woman, -
and the word lady" has become al
most a term of reproach, a young
single woman is girl-'g gyirl'-as
the name young lady" is reserved
for barmaids, shop hands and te!e-
phone onerators.
Then the word dress" used to de-
scribe the outer garment of our
mothers and grandmothers. but
gowns and ''frocks' are worn by
women of the twentieth century. Also
we may talk of relations" but not
OF relatives" and the most vener-
able rooster must be called chick
er," as the word fowl" has sunk
almost to the level of low language.

Mark Twain And Whistler.

One time Mark Twain met James
Mcneil Whistler, the artist. A friend
having warned the humorist that tho
painter was a confirmed joker, Mark
solemnly averred that he would get
the better of Whistler should the lat,
ter attempt "any funny business. y
Furthermore, Twain determined to
anticipate Whistler If possible. So
when the two had been introduced,
which event took place in Whistler's
studio, Twain, assuming the air OF
hopeless stupidity, approached a just
completed painting and said: Not
at all bad, Mr.. Whistler; not at all
bad. Only" he added. reflectively,
with a motion as If to rub out a
cloud effect, IF l were you I'd do
away with that cloud"
Great heavens. sir!'' exclaimed
Whistler almost beside himself. BE
careful and don't touch that; the
paint is not dry yet"
"Oh, l don't mind that" replied
Mark. with an air of perfect nom
chalence. I'm wearing gloves. -
