The Priceless Thirst.

Some thirsty people wall and
sigh because there is no gin
some day their costly thirst will
die. and comfort will begin. A
little while they'll dodge the
cops and go to wild extremes to
carry home sack of hops and
work out homebrew dreams. a
little while they'll think it sport
to trail the bootleg shark
through alley foul and squalid
court, to some sequestered
park; but they'll soon tire Of
all such brews that work like
this commands, that make man
take off his shoes and walk
upon his hands. A little while
they'll walk i'll gloom, and yearn
for things to drink, and hair re-
storers they'll consume, and
many brands OF ink. While yet
this thirst OF theirs endures
they'll drink all things that kick,
and liniments and SPAWN cures
will make their innards sick.
But all things perish and decay.
like roses in the dell. and cen a
thirst will fade away. ii its not
nurtured we'll. And to these
wights will come time, a
lair will come. when
they'd refuse to give u dime to
greet the Demon Rum. And
often they will wonder why
they used to wildly beef because
they lacked Il shot OF rye to
their grief.

Hide and Leather Situation.

More frequent advices of an en-
couraging nature come from the
hide trade and allied lines. Inn
provement in all instances is grad
ual and irregular, but the trend is
evidently in the right direction and
there Is increased confidence in the
future. The large sole leather tan
ner has again been in the market
for domestic packer hides. and Eu-
ropean interests have operated free
ly in frigorifico and some other
stock at the River Plate. In the
main, prices hold about steady, al
thought transactions in cslfskins
have been effected at declines. both
West and East. While leather bus
mess is far from active, with foot
wear manufacturers deferring pur-
chases as long as possible, condi-
tions reflect some betterment. That
a rather urgent need for leather
exists in some quarters is indicated
by the requests for prompt de-
liveries. and shipments by express
have been stipulated in certain
cases. As the fall season ap-
proaches. more animation is shown
in wholesale shoe circles, especially
In the Middle West, and some buyers
whose stocks are low have paid
slight premiums to obtain supplies
quickly.
The Washington herald., 1921-09-05
Iron and Steel Trade.

Irregularity in both business and
prices still characterizes the iron
and steel situation. which has not
fully maintained the moderate im-
provement OF recent weeks. While
sentiment continues hopeful. rev
orders are released slowly and are
mainly for inn terative needs and
prompt shipment. Production
records, although better ia some IN
stances. are variable. with gains in
some quarters being offset by losses
in others. The continued lack OF
important railroad buying is a
drawback to more rapid revival. and
not enough interest has developed
in rail requirements for next year
to call for the naming Of a price.
With the announcement that the
principal producer intends to meet
competition as it appears. the ger
eral price outlook is believed 10
have been clarified. and greater
measure of stability is expected in
the future. The current price move
mcnt is not uniform. advances in
several grades Of pig iron contrast
ing with further declines in some
other material. Efforts of furnaces
to establish higher quotations. fol-
lowing activity in pig iron. have
been successful in some cases. Snd
