Chinese Customs

In China, great and happy
land, the doctors only in de-
mand when folks are feeling
fine; he's paid to keep his pa
tients hale; if they fall sick he
draws no kale, and must take in
his sign. And SO we see him on
the jump, to cure the measle or
the mump, or other fell disease
it doesn't pay to have men sick,
so he prescribes his powdered
brick, his pills and healing teas.
And if the patient cashes in, the
heirs kick up a frightful din that
indicates their ire; they camp
Upon the doctors trail, and ride
that learned man on a rail, and
set his house afire. And in our
and, where culture reigns, nvhen
we fall sick, with pea green
pains, we call the nearest doc !;
when we are we'll we care no
whoop for all the potions in his
coop, for all the pills in stock.
The doctor knows we have a
wad, a bundle opulent and
broad, he knows we'll pay his
bills; and he would more than
human be if he were not inclined
to see how long we'll take his
pills. We put temptation in his
way; why should he heal us in a
day, or even in a year? Why
should he show his smoothest
curve, and toll and strain his
every nerve to put our works in
gear? The Chinese plan is much
the best; in fact, the peoples Of
the west might learn much from
Cathay; her methods often are
so sane they make our finest
schemes look vain, like pipe
dreams gone astray.

Primer Tone Shown In the Steel Market
 Through Past Week
By Associntcd Press

New York, September 24.-The re- cent advance in the price of steel wire and sheets has given the whole steel market a firmer tone although some of the manufacturers are still on the old basis. The advances were especially helpful because it has come to light that large export orders for steel were booked before the rise and that some good domestic business was also placed, all of which will increase the output mate rially. In other directions the mar ket is quiet but more confident feeling prevails as stocks are small.
 Pig iron is firmer with furnaces in some cases asking an advance of s1 per ton. The demand is picking up and the market has been stimulated by inquiries for large tonnage from New England.
 Copper has been quiet. Some ex- port business has been reported through the export association mainly for shipment to France and Germany and there have been in quiries in the market from Japan, but China buyers appear to have withdrawn and there has been little indication of interest elsewhere. A few contracts for October shipment are being placed for domestic con- sumption, but September require ments have been generally covered and expects that large consumers are carrying copper forward from month to month IS their actual operations have fallen below preliminary esti- mates.
 Lead has been in active demand Producers are well sold ahead and prices are firm and advancing.
 Tin is quiet but generally higher in response to the bullish showing in London and the east and to the improvement in sterling and silver.
 Zinc ruled firm on a demand for prompt shipments and decreasing stocks. Shipments for two months have been running we'll ahead of the output and some producers are un- willing to quote for October and later
 Antimony is steady with advances quoted for future shipment.
