OF THE DAY
STEADILY IMPROVING.

People who expected TO see the Unit

lowing the war We're disappointed.
Those who pinned their hopes TO a
slow but gradual readjustment are wit.

ment.
Neither wages nor prices viii ever

who have enjoyed a long taste of high
wages and easy work will not willingly
return to long hours and grueling toll
and poor pay. Manufacturers and deal
ers who have reveled in sky profits will
fight shy of the old system OF slim
pickngs and few of them.
That is human nature and nature
makes all laws and regulates all things.
it was, however, manifestly impos-
sible to maintain wages and profits at
the sky peak of war days Abnormal
cy may prevail for a period, but in the
end 1t must give way to rational

Prices OF necessities. and even lux.
uries, have been steadily declining for
u long time. The same is true OF la
Dor. and of all OF the raw materials
that go into the construction or pro.
duction of articles of daily use.
The fan has been slow but gradual,
and some time must still lapse before
we reach that level which will insure
the return of full measure OF pros
perity TO the country.
The situation, however, is fairly sat
isfaciory and fun Of promise. and the
future is bright to those who can see

When certain South American ma
tives so on the warpath, they take
caapi drug, extracted from the root
of jungle tree. Caapi makes the
warriors absolutely fearless, super-hu-
manly courageous. says Dr. II. H. Rus.
by, OF Columbia University He observ.
ed the drug in use while on q scien'

In the next big war drugs like caapI
will be the most important fighting
weapon.
It,is not improbable that the general
OF retreating army will radiophone

like caapi. to be rushed by airplane.

is reduced to laboratory or chemical
basis? Without that glory. no enthu.

BUILDING CAPITAL
BEING ABSORBED
Unprecedented Activities Re-
flected in Call for Under
writer's Money.

Evidences that the building in
dustry throughout the nation has
swung into an era of unprecedent-
ed activity continue to develop. One
of these is the large amount of cap
ital being absorbed in the industry
In this connection II is noted that

apartment hotel. New York. s1,6O0,-
900. With regard to the general
building situation, S. W. Straus and
Company say:
There is every indication at
present that unusual activities in
the building situation will continue
throughout the present season.
There is steady inquiry for
capital for building purposes with
an increasing demand for buildings
of nonresidential type. Apartment
houses and apartment house hotels
of large dimension also are grow
ing in demand in the larger cities.
while the present extensive
building developments are greatly
aiding the housing situation and
are equalizing the wide margin
which has existed between supply
and demand, II is to be borne in
mind that. as the standard of liv-
ing improves in America and as
new conveniences and arrangements
are developed in apartment house
construction, there is corree-
spondingly increased demand de-
veloped. 1t is to be expected that
strong and steady demand for
high class apartment houses will
be sustained.
There is every indication that
the labor and material situation
taken from the standpoint of the
nation in general, are quite well
stabilized. 1t is not APPARENT that
anything will be gained by holding
off for better prices, although with
the continuation of present activi-
ties there will be shortage of both
material and labor at various times
and places. But there is no ap-
parent reason why current building
activities should not move along
steadily throughout the season"
