COMMERCIAL
Weekly Review Of Trade and
Market Reports.

R. g. Dun & Co.'S weekly review
of trade says;
Business looks better in prospect
than in actual performance, for cont
fidence in the future is greater than
present activity. Some lull appears
in the demand for pig iron and in
the markets for finished products
new orders are developing with less
rapidity. However, business as a
whole is of satisfactory proportions
and in the wire trade, particularly,
spring contracts have exceeded ex-
pectations, some manufacturers hav-
ing enough on their books to keep
them busy up to the end Of the year.
Reduced operations are in effect
at the plate mills, which are now
running at from SIS to so per cent. of
capacity; but the ~ per cent. rate of
pig iron production of the leading
interest is maintained and additional
furnaces have been blown in during
the past month. Equipment orders
from the railroads come out slowly,
but one bridge project will require
about $4,000 tons and considerable
other work is pending
@The tin plate mills are enjoying
much activity, one company operating
at 80 per cent. of capacity and some
contracts have been placed as far
ahead as the third quarter.
Trading in footwear continues
backward, but the situation shows i'm
provement Notwithstanding the fact
that the volume of business Is not
what it should be at this season. There
Is some increase in the demand for
domestic packer hides, though no ac-
tivity exists"

Dogs as Police Assistants.

In the countries of continental Eu.
rope the police act in dual capacity.
Primarily they are guardians of the
peace; secondly, they act as spies for
the government
One of the usual features of the po-
lice service in some of the cities of Eu-
rope is the employment of dogs. In
Paris they are used along the Seine as
life savers for those who have fallen
into the water or who have attempted
suicide. One of these dogs has a
record Of saving 2s lives, which is per-
haps a better record than that OF any
Of the human attaches Of the depart,

huddled along the steps. while laugh

preston.
Just at that moment Miss Cynthia

WHAT SAVED

Mrs. Martin Tells About a Painful
Experience that LIGHT Have
Ended Seriously.

RIyesviIle, W. Va.-Mrs. Dora Martin,
IN a letter from Rivesville, writes:
''For three years, suffered with wo-
manly troubles, and had pains in my
hack and side. I was nervous and
could not sleep at night.
The doctor could not help me. He
said 1 would haveNto be operated on be
fore I could get better. / thought ]
would try using Cardui.
Now, am entirely well.
I am sure Cardui saved my life. I
will never be without Cardui in my
home. l recommend it to my friends"
For fifty years, Cardui has been re-
lieving pain and distress caused by wo-
manly trouble. 1t will surely help you.
It goes to the spot-reaches the
trouble-relieves the symptoms, and
drives away the cause.
If you suffer from any symptoms or
yomanly trouble, take Cardui.

Covered Dishes.

From the days when our ancestors took
their food in their hands and ate it with
as little ceremony as dog gnaws bone
TO the present time of elaborate dinners
is long step, but gradual one. 1t was
number of centuries before dishes OF any
kind were used, and knives and forks as
adiuncts to eating are later still. The fear
of poison which haunted the mind OF every
person of quality during the middle ages
gave rise to certain curious customs and
even to certain superstitions. When
dishes are now served covered, it is I'M
derstood that it is merely for the purpose
of keeping them warm. This was not
however, the principal reason why they
were served covered during the dark ages.
II was the fear that poison might be in
troduced into them suneptitiouSly between
the kitchen and the table where they were
TO be served to the kings or The lords or
even to persons of inferior rank.
The covers were not removed till the
master of the house had taken his place.
All dishes afterward served were brought
on the table in the same manner. 1t was
the custom originally when the dishes
were uncovered for some Of the servants
TO first partake of them, but this custom
was afterward in part replaced by the
servants touching the food with one OF
several objects which were regarded as
infaIlible preservatives against poison.

Hard Luck With His Dogs.

Charley Ellison is up on horses, but
was not up on dogs. AT one time in Hot
Springs he paid 500 for bird dog, part
" through a fanciful notion and partly
because the dog was handsome ami
NAL.
He sought the seller the next day and
said:
81 thought you claimed this was bird
dog. He was gone for three hours yes
terday and didn't bring back single
bird"
Passing up the hunters and going in for
trick animals, Ellison had dog lat Sleeps
head Bay to which he would give a
smell of a S. bill and later send it to
bring the money home.
A visiting horseman located the plant
before the dog did and substituted 81
bill.
When the retriever showed up Ellison
said:
"Prince, what have you done with the
other $4"

cement produetlon Breaks Record.

Ten wears ago the production OF Port
land cement for the first time passed the
10000 OOO-barrel mark, showing an III
crease of 1900 per cent over the proauc-
ton of 10 years previous, and the giant
strides that had been made intfe industry
were remarked. Even this productloh
was small compared with that ofthe pres
emf day. In 1910, according to the re-
mort on cement by Ernest F. Burchard, o.
fine United States Geological Survey, the
production of Portland cement reachee
the enormous total oil 76,549,95l barrels
with a value of SOS, 2O5, 800. This Is
equivalent to IL, 9S6, l52 long tons, yaluee
at 1926 a ton. 1t is an increase over inc
output of 1909 of II $3.50 barrels, o.
nearly 10 per cent, and an increase IN Value
of SIC, BAT ,446, or more than % per cent
This increase alone is greater than me
total output of Portland cement in l9Vu
In addition to Portland cement there was
also produced last year | 1923 oarreis
of natural cement and o5,951 barrels CT
nuzzolau cement, a total of H,7S5, al
barrels.
The price Of Portland cement in 1910
was as low as 70 cents barrel in some
places, the average for the United STATES
SO 1 cents barrel. In 1890 the average
price was over g a barrel and as late as
1903 it was $1.24 barrel.
Mr.. Burchard remarks that measured
by the capital invested the cement INDUS
try is one OF the worlds three great ex-
tractive industries. In capital employed
il apparently far outrankS the gold-mln-
ing industry of the United States, IN
Guiding Alaska, as well as the copper IN
dustry. Only coal and iron stand ahead
of it.
The principal constituent of Portland
cement is limestone, and Mr.. Burchard' $
report summarizes the most important
limestone formations in all the States.
The greatest of these are found in the
eastern half of the United States, where
there are enormous limestone deposits.
The report is accompanied by a map
showing the distribution of these lime
stones. The areas they cover comprise
many thousands of square miles. The
map also shows the location OF the oper-
ating cement plants in the United States.

Universal Language.

He spoke his love in German-she
answered not word. In French he tried
to WOO her-the maiden never heard. He
tried his luck in English, in IriSh-all in
vain; in Turkish, Greek and Latin, and in
the tongue of Spain.
And then an inspiration came TO the an
guisfed youth. "The universal Ian
guage," he cried, "Pll try, forSooth"
He kissed the demure maiden and press
ed her to his breast. She understood
that language, and you can guess the
rest.
