Reward, but No Claimant.

Despite the view that players are
extravagant and do not save their
money, Ada Lewis is a frugal actress
and she has been putting her money
away for years. She is the owner of
an apartment building in New Ro-
chelle. When she went down there to
make arrangements for building the
apartment she was waited upon by
some members of the chamber of
commerce, who congratulated her
upon her enterprise,
"Will dogs be allowed in the build
ing?" was asked.
mo"
"Will children be barred?"
mo, indeed" was the quick reply,
"and I will go you one better. I will
give a months free rent to the
parents of every baby born in the
apartment"
This pleased the committee i'm
mensely, and as they bowed out she
smiled little and remarked:
"But, I forgot to say, this is to be
a bachelor apartment '-Cleveland

PLATINUM REALLY An ALLOY
10 Use by jewelers. and Dentists 10
What Has Made It q Costly
Metal.

The mineral called platinum 10
really a natural alloy of iridium. rho
dinum. palladium and often osmium,
with varying amounts of iron. copper
and gold. It ia usually found as
small nuggets, scales and rounded or
Irregular grains. It's color is steel
gray. The specific gravity of the
crude platinum varies from II to 10.
The output of platinum in the United
States is practically limited to Cali
fornia and Oregon. a.
Owing to it's high melting point and
great resistance to acids, platinum is
extensively used for laboratory uten-
Bils. Platinum salts are employed in
chemical analyses. In the manufac-
ture of sulphuric acid the metal has
been used in making large concentra-
ton kettles, but of late gold has been
substituted for it. In photography,
dentistry and electric installation
much platinum is used. OF late the
manufacture of jewelry has con-
sumed large quantities of it. It is ex-
tensively used for chains and for the
setting of diamonds, the claim being
made, not only that it is more resist
ant than silver and harder than gold,
but that the stones are better offset
by platinum and appear larger than in
my other kind Of setting.-From a &C.

II you wish to realize what devotion
to ices means you should go to Paler-
mo. All over the south of Italy ices
are eaten to an extent of which we do
not dream, but in Sicily and Palermo
in particular the custom has attained
amazing proportions. Ices are eaten
by people of all ranks and ages from
morning to night. Where true Briton
would demand glass of beer the
Palermian asks for an ice. Morning,

Pretty Girls and Plain Men.

When a. pretty woman marries q
plain man it is not because she pities
him. A woman loves a man because
Of his strength. His determination ap-
peals to her, and wins her In the end,

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Proof Accumulates to Indicate Developing Nationa
Prosperity Business Activity Is Widening and I,
Consumption Is Rapidly Forging Ahead.

New York. Sept. H.-Dun's Review to-
morrow will say:
! Proof accumulates on every hand OF
a developing national prosperity. broad.
wholesome, and quite independent of
uncertainty and hesitation. Many years
have passed since there has been such
unanimity of testimony as to the widen
ing of business activity. Then some of
the lines which have been tagging are
now developing the same progressive
spirit. which Tor some time has existed
In the iron and steel industry and is
making that trade break all previous
records.
Consumption has not only overtaken
production. but is rapidly pressing ahead
of It. and-in some important points scar
city Of facilities, security of labor. and
scarcity of transportation appear as the
inevitable accompaniment of an accumu-
lating demand. Copper production and
consumption are both enormous. The
great Middle West Is experiencing all
the benefits of a big crop year. The
Pacific Northwest Is rejoicing In a re-
vival Of the lumber industry. Building
operations continue active in many Of
the large cities. Bank exchanges this
week outside ,of New York gained 125
per cent over 1911. and I40 per cent over
1910. while In New York the increases
were 6.S and 25.7 per cent respectively.
Railroad gross earnings In two weeks
of September gained 49, per cent. and
while there Is not SO much new railroad
construction as in the past. the railroads
have been. and are, buying freely Of
supplies and making every effort to pre-
pare for the heavy new traffic"

road Stocks Show Strength.

New York, Sept. H.--Stocks were
strong through the session to-day and
closed at the best prices, with many net
gains Of importance and several ne"
high records. Money was stin through
out the day also. Time funds went at
per cent. Call money ranged between

done at 6 per cent
Buying or steel was the one impressive
thing of the day. that stock furnishing
one-fifth of the business done. The buy
ing is due TO the very heavy volume OF

ability to earn it's dividends In the worst

and the volume Of trading was large
Other good issues were strong, but not
materially changed.
Canadian Pacific advanced across go
The reason is found partly in large earn
ings and partly in the fact that stock
holders will vote next week on the stock
issue. Very valuable rights will be given
in this connection. The rights on Cana
dian have averaged more than IS share
annually for the last ten years. In COM
mon with Great Northern and St. Paul
