TRADE CONDITIONS HERE
SHOW LITTLE CHANGE
Foreign Buying a Factor in Iron and
Steel Market.

Business in Philadelphia is running
along about the same. but everywhere
there is more optimistic feeling as to
tho future. Generally, collections are
fair r. G. Dun & Co. say in their
weekly review;
Local cotton and cotton yarn dealers re-
port practically no change In the local
cotton situation. Business generally is
very quiet, although at times for a few
days there Is good demand. The de-
mand is mostly for numbers used by
manufacturers OF underwear. These num-
bers at the present time are somewhat
scarce. Hosiery mills are generally dull,
with the exception of those manufactur-
ing the higher grade OF hosiery. Weavers
also report business quiet. and are not
anticipating any change for the near fu-
ture
The iron and steel market presents no
special features. but the general opinion
appears TO be that conditions are improv-
ing. Foreign buying Is extensive and do
nestle business is somewhat improved.
Mills are operating at Increased capacity
and manufacturers of machine tools are
well employed, while locomotive builders
are reported to have entered heavily into
the making OF goods for export purposes.
Pig iron continues more or less inactive
but the demand for foundry iron is some
what better. Finished material is stronger
and structural material is reported i'm
proving. good demand being noted from
shipyaTds, which increases the capacity
of mills. Building work, however. re-
quiring structural material, Is reported
rather quiet, Prices are generally firm
and collections fair,
The stove trade is we'll employed on
supplementary heating apparatus and a
fair volume OF business Is noted in staple
goods, Foundries are operating at about
60 per cent capacity. Prices are re-
ported firm and collections fair. The
leather market continues Arm and prices
high. Glazed kid Is In moderate demand
for domestic trade and export trade is
in no sense normal

AVOID ALL MEAT
If KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Uric acid in meat excites Kidneys
and irritates the
Bladder.
Take Salts at first sign of Bladder
weakness or Kidney
Backache.

Kidney and Bladder weakness re-
suits from uric acid, says a noted au-
thority. The kidneys filter this acid
from the blood and pass it on to the
bladder, where il often remains 10
lrritate and infame. causing a burn
ing, scalding sensation, or setting up
an irritation at the neck of the blad-
der, obliging you to seek relief two
or three times during the night The
sunerer is in constant dread, the wa
ter passes sometimes with a scalding
sensation and is very profuse; again
there is difficulty in avoiding IT,
Bladder weakness. most folks call
II, because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful. this is
really one of the most simple all
ments TO overcome. Get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from your phar-
macist and take a tablespoonful in a
glass OF water before breakfast, con-
, ttnue this for two or three days. This
Nwtu neutralize the acids in the urine
so II no longer is a source OF irrtta-
ton TO the bladder and urinary or
gans which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and Is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice. combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caus-
ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts
is splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant efferves-
cent lithia-water drink which quick
ly relieves bladder trouble.-Adver-

Gas in the Stomach
Is Dangerous
A Warning of Acid Indigestion. Prompt
Use of Magnesia stops All
Sourneas and Pain

Sufferers from Indigestion or dys-
pepsia should remember that the pres
ence Of gas or wind in the stomach In
variably indicates that the stomach is
troubled by excessive acidity.
This acid causes the food to ferment
ana the fermenting food in turn gives
rise TO noXious gases which distend the
stomach, hamper the normal functions
% vital internal organs, cause acute
headaches. interfere with the action of
the heart, and charge the blood stream
with deadly poisons, which in time
must ruin the health. Physicians say
that to quickly dispel a dangerous ac-
emulation of wind in the stomach and
10 stop the food fermentation which
creates the gas. the acid in the stom-
ach must be neutralized and that for
this purpose there is nothing. quite so
good as teaspoonful of pure bisurat-
ed magnesia taken in a little water !m-
mediately after meals. This instantly
neutralizes the acid. thus stopping fer
mentatiop and the formation of gas,
and enables the infamed. d!stended d
stomach to proceed with its work under
natural conditions. Bisurated mag
nesia is obtainable in powder or ia blet
form from any druggist; but as there
are many different forms of magnesia
IL is important that the bisurated
which the physicians prescribe should
be distinctly asked for.-Advertise

This man. in reality q giant, looked
like a pygmy from below as he
crawled hand over hand to the heights
above. At the edge of the cliff he was
assisted by two other men who
dragged him on to terra f1rma and
who relieved him of his burden. This
burden they carried between them to
q hut. Before doing so they cut the
big man across the shoulders with a
whip and pointed to the shore below.
The big man nodded. He stood for
one moment on the edge of the cliff
and gazed about him. He gauged the
grade of the wicked, sharp, big Razor
Back, and nodded once again; then
nimbly he leaped over the face of the
cliff, striking his heels into the edge
of that perilous path some thirty feet
or more below-and then in spite OF
his huge bulk ran like a deer down
to the beach.
The men above dropped their bur.
den and watched him.
"Ah," said Hernandez to his com.
rade Ponto. the beast-he knows that
Razor Back. He has not forgotten fif.
teen years ago"
There was a touch upon Hernandez
shoulder. Hernandez whirled as
though at the fall OF a trigger. A
third man faced him, low-browed, cum
ning.eyed. Hernandez breathed a
sigh Of relief.
Half an hour later, with his final
load strapped to his back, the brute
climbed for the last time over the
edge Of the cliff, this time bearing his
own burden to the hut. The three
men already within. the hut admitted
him.
There was no window to this hut,
and the light within was dim. The
room was bare. Tidy little bunga-
low, friend smuggler of Martinique"
he said.
The other man smiled grimly in his
turn. Tidy is the word, soldier of
