 woman.
 Another tells me- I remarked, who now has a nice little dressmalxing busi- ness of her own, that she first sewed out at dollar day. She worked hard and long, and by knowing her business was soon put in charge of the work room Later, she was the designer and then after learning thoroughly every detail of the business, she opened a shop for her self. But without the work room exper- fence she declares she could never have succeeded.
 Then experience is the keynote" was the next question, which came quick and fast.
 But how can we gain it except by starting?" I asked. "A woman who lives in a distant city and who has made a neat little fortune on cakes and pics, told me some years ago that she started ont on small scale by merely making these two edibles for a rich friend. She recommended me to others of her friends. They began to buy from me. Then 1 put out my sign,' as it were and the result is that I have now an established bus- ness."
 And cakes and pies are treacherous as they can be-" said the woman, laugh ingly.
 Not after you know your business I said positively. "As you have asked me my opinion of what constitutes the suc- cess of women in pin money ventures" I say unhesitatingly that experience, and knowing ones business, are the two requisites that are absolutely necessary. Otherwise you will be ranked with the failures"

BOOKINGS DECREASE

Cleveland. Ohio, May s.-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:

 leading independent interest has in operation only five of "A open hearth furnaces The United States Steel cor poration's bookings for April were about 25.o00 tons daily, compared with 35,OOO tons during March. It's April shipments were active, being about equal to the March volume. The pig iron situation in the Chicago district is not entirely devoid of encouraging fea- lures, but in nearly all centers pro- found dullness prevails Recent sales of basic in the east amounting to about 10000 tons have fixed $15 as the pre- vailing price.
 The leading cast iron pipe interest has bought 5000 tons of lower grades for Buffalo shipment and has purchased some additional tonnage for shipment to its New Jersey plant A Canton, OHio, Stecl ColiipdHy IS III lHt Lldrhel for 5000 tons of basic for third quarter delivery. A very large tonnage of structural material is expected to reach the contract stage in several large cities at an early date. The outlook in New York and Chicago is especial : ly favorable.
 Contracts of the week include S3S5 tons booked at Chicago, including 400 tons taken by the American Bridge company for the Southwestern Life In. surance company. Dallas, Tex, con- tracts booked in New York include 1700 tons for the Fabian Construction com pany let to A. E. Norton & Co.,. 400 tons for the Haviland building to tn American Bridge company. More open cutting of prices of plates is reported east and west of Pittsburg. A Chicago firm has taken 100 tons of riveted steel pipe awarded by the city of Tacoma for the Green river reservoir project.

Minstrels in the tall trees, singing all

Shady hooks all hower-girt where

These delights you'll find, and more
