the matter to my grocer one day and
he suggested that give Postum a
trial.
Next day 1t came. but the cook
made the mistake of not boiling II
sufficiently, and we did not like II
much. This was, however. soon rem
edied. and now we like II SO much
that we will never change back. Pos

a drug, has been the means OF curing
my stomach trouble. ] verify believe.

COMMERCIAL
Weekly Review of Trade and
Market Reports.

r. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
or Trade says:
Industrial and mercantile condi-
tions, though irregular are, on the
whole very satisfactory, with promis-
ing spring outlook. The event of
this week has been the great weak
ness in securities. The failure rec
ord has been greatly expanded in
amounts involved during the last
month, but the record seems worse
that it really is, because its big total
of liabilities is due to handful of
large defaults, chiefly by brokerage
firms. The record. nevertheless, has
necessarily a depressing effect. 1t is
difficult, however, to discover any
material falling off in the volume Of
trade although it is undoubtedly
true that there is less Of the tremen-
dous push of two or three months
ago.
While there has been no return
to the remarkable activity of a few
months ago current consumption n
iron and steel continues in heavy
volume and all leading producers are
busily engaged in filling contracts on
their books. There has been some
slackening of demand in a few fin
ished lines, as consumers have ample
stocks on hand and buy conserva-
lively as a result, but, on the whole,
orders for materials are numerous.
although for smaller amounts than
of late.
Large sellers OF cotton, wooden
and worsted fabrics have named the
closest prices for fall deliveries that
have been known in the dry goods
trade for some years and they are
getting business in good volume, prin-
cipally on well-known staples OF
quality."

Meaning of CemctCry.

1t is not correct to say that "cem-
etery" means the city of the dead"
The word is from the Greek "Kio-
meterion," meaning sleeping place,
not the place of the dead. There is
nothing in the etymology of the word
to warrant us in thinking that it was
originally intended to convey the idea
that the departed were really dead

Hebrew term for Gem metery-" Bet
haim''-the house of the living

Irj9l vs.. Italian Method.

The Rev. Sanford Culver Hearn,
pastor of the First Methodist Episco-
pal Church, Yonkers, is relating a
street car incident which concerns a
conductor, an Irishman and an ltal-
ian. Each had given a dime to the
faretaker, but had received no
change.
Il wanta da nick" complained the
Neapolitan.
You've got your nick. No more
hicks yor you. See?" And the con-
ductor moved to the rear platform.
The Italian sat meekly in silence,
but the Irishman employed different
tactics. He went to the doorway
Gimme five cints change" said he
to the conductor.
You've got all the change you're
going to get, was the retort.
