PROSPERITY IN THE WEST.

Taking the country as whole trade
conditions are not as brisk as they
were during the corresponding period
of last year. But this condition of af-
fairs does not apply specifically to the
western section of the country. Pros
perity reigns here and farther west.
Indeed business is livelier in the west
ern section of the country than it was
a year ago. These facts are pointed
out conclusively by Henry Clews, the
New York banker, in his current
weekly financial review. Excerpts
from it follow:
General business is quiet and small
er in volume than a year ago. There
has been a large shrinkage in bank
clearings, amounting to 16 per cent in
the month of September. This, how
ever is explained by a shrinkage of
26 per cent in the clearings at New
York, which alone constitute more
than one half the entire clearings of
the country. In this city the loss in
clearingS was, of course, very largely
due to diminished speculative activity
In other leading cities the decline for
the month was much less noticeable.
For instance, Philadelphia showed a
loss of per cent, Boston per cent
and Chicago 4 per cent, while Balti-
more showed an increase of 16 per
cent, Kansas City per cent, Minnea-
polls II per cent, San Francisco 13
per cent, Los Angeles % per cent, St
Louis 2 per cent, New Orleans per
cent, Galveston 80 per cent and At
lanta IS per cent. Taken by sections,
the Middle States show a decrease in
clearings of % per cent, New England
6 per cent and the Middle Western
states only 1 per cent. while other
Western Sites show an increase of 8
per cent, the Pacific States an increase
of 10 per cent and the Southern
States an increase of per cent. 1t
Will thus be seen that New York is still

WHAT OUR MOTHERS DID.

'T propose a new solution to the di-
vorce problem: not enough young men
marry Smith, writes the dramatic
critic in the November Hampton's
Magazine. IF earnest young men mar
ried more young women of Smiths
class, instead of plunging after what
are technically known as classy quilts,
the divorce problem would soon be neck
and neck with the new nationalism to
see which got into the graveyard first.
Smith, according to w. Somerset
Maugham's new play, in which John
Drew is acting this season, was a par
lor maid. A parlor maid, or any maid,
or any other kind of Industrious, intel
ligent girl used to using her two hands
and her head around a house just
simply couldn't be divorced after you
