A LINE O. CHEER
EACH DAY O. THE YEAR.
BY John kendrick Bangs.

IN TRUST.
Who takes from life more than he
gives to II
Save that which comes from Ma
lures kindly care
Is living on some other fellows wit,
And taking for his own some
others share.
Wherefore when Fortune doubly
smiles on you,
And grants you an increase beyond
your fee,
'Twere well to look on it not as your
due
But as Fund of which you are
Trustee.

READJUSTING GOING ON

Some Improvement In foreign trade il
looked for by iron and steel men ard
reports of inquiries from various coun-
tr9es for the metal constantly are being
heard. Contract Establishments are be-
ing made, every case being decided on
It's merits. according to the Iron Trade
Rcpietc, which says:
Coming events are foreshadCwed In

In active in Eastern centres aggregates
over $4,000 tons, including ono lot OF
100000 tons for Italy. one of 10000 tons
for Japan and another of 5000 tons for
South America. This business can be
placed at 3 to 325c Pittsburg. Wire

Contract Middle Holds Up Trade.
Both foreign and domestic business
will be greatly relieved and stimulated
when Washington gets around to settling
the informal war contract muddle and
the disturbance caused by Comptroller
Warwicks ruling with respect to the
pittsburg price basis. Payments held
up by Warwicks action. II Is believed
will be passed without resorting to spe-
Cial legislation. Fig iron producers are
less disposed to remain adamant in their
refusal to scale down prices of the I'M
filed portion OF 1918 contracts. Some
Establishments are being made. each case
being treated on Its merits.
