But the indignity he had suffered in
his arrest seems to have preyed upon

promoters. There have been three

Should it be made possible for ocean

cause the lake traffic would be almost

would probably receive the contracts

to the coast ship by boat at a fraction
of the railroad cost
Congressman Townsend commenting
on his resolution said:
The purpose Is to bring ocean trans
portation competition to the heart of
the American continent. Bringing
ocean vessels to great lake ports would
give American and Canadian farmers,
and manufacturers the benefit of a di-
rect route to the worlds markets.
Cheaper transportation means a bigger
revenue for our products.
Direct To Europe.
Not only will great lake cities be
benefited, but all portions of the coun-
try will share Farmers in the far
west may ship their grain direct to
! Europe or eastern markets. The same
is true of the manufacturers ard mer-
chants in the far west" said Townsend.
d. c. Moon. general manager of the
Lake Shore railroad company. while
not denying the feasibility of the
Townsend plan, says it would take at
least a generation to put the scheme in
to effect <
Bill II Well hacked.
TT would cost many millions and
many years of work. Moon said.
The project is an immense one. OF
i course, IL boats were competing with
the railroads in carrying freight to
coast cities, 1t would make big inroads
j, on the freight receipts. But I'm not
going to worry about 1t. I guess I'll be
in heaven when the plan is put
| through"
| Cleveland is perhaps the most heavy
! hacker OF the new bill and Lorain while
/ no action has yet been made. promises
to give the bill all the support possible.
Taft has given the plan his favor. The
Cleveland chamber of commerce will
ask all other great lake cities to lend
them aid in sending representatives to
congress in behalf of the measure.
| 1T would be the greatest boom for
lake shippers" said Captain Johl
Mitchell, who Is well known here.

STEEL TRADE IS
IN WAITING MOOD

New York, March 9.-The Iron Age
of yesterday said:
Some hesitancy has been noticed in
iron and steel markets in the last
week, attributable to political develop
ments, and it has helped to emphasize
the conservatism which buyers are
showing in all lines But leading steel
manufacturers consider that the pro-
gram for the extra session of congress,
limiting tariff action to two schedules.
is not one that should cause more than
a temporary halt, and they are not
uneasy.
Pig iron production increased steadily
in February. The total of coke aud
anthracite iron for the twenty-eight
days was 1,794.500 tons, or 64.0S9 tons
a day, against 5e.752 tons a day in
January, a gain of 13 per cent. The
number of active steel works furnaces
increased by seventeen in the month,
while there was net loss of one IN
active merchant furnaces
Stocks Are Cut Down.
The United States Steel Corporation
has blown in one New Castle, one Ems
ley. and one Clarion furnace since
March l. and when one more furnace
in the Pittsburg district is blown in
this week will have 6s per cent of ca
pacity active against 46h per cent Jan.
H. Its stocks have been cut down to
100 600 tons at its northern furnaces.
The scale of the steel corporation s
operations is plainly III closer relation
to that of Independent steel companies
than was the case Two and threa
months ago. With prices better main
ia ined it is apparently getting a larger
share of the business Its heavy
foreign shipments are also factor.
In rails a 1900 ton purchase to be
closed this week by the Pere Marquette

divided 5 700 tons between South Chi
cago and Buffalo, The Manila railroad
has bought 10. 900 tons from the Lacka-

Cleveland, O., March s.-The iron
Trade Review in it's issue today says:
Although the approaching extra
congressional session is causing con-
siderable discussion in the business
world, there is no reason for believing
that it will be a menace to business
affairs. The legislative program is I'M
derstood to be generally outlined and
the probabilities are that the tariff re-
vision will be confined to a moderate
readjustment of wooden and cotton
schedules and that the Canadian re-
clpTOciiy Dill VIII DC passed. Lutte
discussion is now heard in regard TO
the railroad rate decision and railroads
are buying in a ginserly way. as they
have done for several years.
while in some sections the pig iron
market is not quite so active, there IS
an Increasing tendency toward higher
prices. This is due In part at least. to
the fact that undelivered tonnages OF
high priced iron have been reduced. and
sellers cannot make low prices and at
the same time keep up their average to
anything like satisfactory figure. In
the Philadelphia district, from $4,000 to
10000 tons of basic have been sold for
second quarter at s15.e5 delivered. The
International Harvester company has
bought $4,000 tons of foundry anil
malleable grades at Buffalo"

CATARRH GOES.
SO Does Sore Throat, Bronchitis
Group and Asthma.

You can easily tell by reading the
symptoms below, whether you have ca
tarrh or not;
Offensive breath, frequent sneezing
discharge from the nose, stoppage OF
the nose, huskiness of the voice, tick
ling in throat, droppings in throat, a
cough, pain in chest. loss of strength,
variable appetite, spasms of coughing,
low spirited at times, difficulty in
breathing, loss of vital force.
Dodson's Pharmacy has a sensible
remedy (money back if it fails) for
catarrh, called HYOMEI pronounced
High-o Me- which is a vaporized air,
so antiseptic that when it is breathed
over the inhamed and germ-infested
membrane, it kills all germ life, gives
relief in two minutes and cures ca
tarrh.
The price, including hard rubber
pocket inhaler, is only $1.00. The in
haler will last a lifetime, so that
should you need a second bottle OF HY-
ONIEI you can get it for so cents. ASK

Why You Shouldn't Love
Your Husband Too Much
will Dc for love.

Many an estate young bride will Dc
shocked-and perhaps will cry little
at first-to learn on high psycholog-
ical authority that she must put curb
on her heart and not love her adorable
husband too much.
Nevertheless, the psychologists have
settled it, and if she values her future
happiness in the married state, she
will have to learn the lesson of re-
serve and wholesome colness toward
the masculine being who absorbs her
so utterly. But the expert arguments
in the case apear convincing, and also
may afford some crumbs of comfort.
The first principal stated is that hap
Ply marriages are those in which the
husband loves his wife just little
more than she loves him Man is a
curious being, not half so civilized So
cially as a woman. He is happy when
he has found something to love-to
make love is instructive with him-but
to be loved strongly in return he can
lot fully understand 1T is apt to bore
him.
Woman, on the other ,hand, has a
subtle appreciation of the fact Of being
loved She accepts it as a natural
right. Her home, her children, and
her husbands love-those are the three
essentials for her happiness.
With this argument in mind it will
be seen that ut is necessary that the
husband should have a far stronger
affection for his wife than she should
have for him
Let us take a typical case. Mr.. A. is
an average common sense man. He IS
devoted to his business.
He falls deeply in love with a girl
whom he eventually marries. Mrs. A
is the kind of woman one meets every
where. She is kind, affectionate and
domesticated; frankly, she marr,es
