L kept getting worse until finally
had pains in my bronchial tubes and
all through my lungs. 1 had a bad

l could hardly stand it. l consulted
three different doctors and took their
medicine, but did not get any better.

work with pleasure and feel like it
is a dream that 1 have my health

NEW YORK. November 15.-Al-
though nearly 10000 garment work
, ers have left their shears, needles
and pressing irons. the strike In the
garment manufacturing trades has
not made Its effect felt noticeably in
jobbing. wholesaling or retail trade.
Buyers for retail houses had little
difficulty today in finding goods suf-
f1cient for their needs. and declare
! they do not expect difficulty until the
time comes to buy merchandise for the
January sales.
Building construction is being
pushed to the utmost in this section
in order to make buildings begun at
this time available for the 1922 rent
ing season and to take advantage Of
material prices, which. 1t is expected,
will show a decided increase next
spring.
Railroads continued this week to

equipment in this section. The leath-
er market Is strong, with prices firm
ing up, and shoe manufacturers in

out the less expensive grades. are be-

PITTSBURGH. November 15-Busi-
ness and Industry in Pittsburgh and
the surrounding territory are looking
up. Seasonable demand for all liaes
is reflected in the number of addi-
tional employees put to work. Mine
and mill supplies are moving more
actively. Lumber wholesalers are re-
ceiving inquiries from industrial
sources. and window glass sales are
increasing. Groceries are moving in
fair volume and department stores
are finding business much better as
the holidays approach.
The Westinghouse Airbrake Com
pany. which has recently increased
it's working force. announces that
enough orders have been secured to
keep its plants on full time for
Sc. eral months. There are still many
smokeless stacks in the steel section
Of the district, but the blowing in of
additional furnaces nearly every day
is fast reducing this number. The
building industry Is striking it's
stride and structural steel is now 60
ing into erection instead Of rusting
in the yards.
This weeks coke tonnage will show
a further increase and the general
outlook for complete resumption in
the coke region. including the Con-
nellsville section. Is encouraging.
