all sorts of alarming symptoms,

trouble was all due to iron starva.

discovered this newer form of iron,
like the iron in spinach, lentils,
and apples in highly concentrated

MUNICIPAL
SPOONING
BY John C .Medbury.

a NORTHWESTERN Tnetrop-
A oils is planning to open a
- municipal >>>spooning park
where romantic couples can make
love at the expense of the city.
When this park is completed II
will empty every parlor in town.
1t will also leave the front
porches clear for bills, newspapers
and milk bottles.
Nowadays when fellow wants
to hold his girls hand he has to
spend SO cents and so into a movie
theater.
Matrimonial statistics show that
only one couple out Of ten go in
TO see the picture.
This spooning park won't have
any illumination and you'll have
to use q Hashlight to see whether
you've got the right girl.
Can you imagine guy walking
along in front of all the benches
with q lantern looking for his
wife?
One bird says he's going to hang
q COW bell on his wife SO that he
can find her in the dark.
Several couples have already
telephoned the city hall and asked
for reservations.
One man said he wanted two
benches for the evening of July II.
His idea in getting two benches
was that IL they had a fight, he
could sit on one and she could sit
on the other.
If they didn't happen to quarrel
he could easily sub.let the second
bench to the man next door who's
wife is. out Of town.
AS this park will be absolutely
free, couples will have to get
there early in order to get a good
seat.
On Saturday, Sunday and holi.
days, people win probably be
standing in line by noon.
One guy says he's going to play
safe by bringing his own bench.
You won't even have to take
your own girl If you don't want to.
You can go out to the park and
take a chance on meeting some
dame who's sweetie didn't show
up.
Then If he hannAna IN or,;va
later in the evening, you're not
out anything except maybe a
couple Of teeth.
If you're too bashful to take a
dame to this municipal spooning
park you can go out there by
yourself, sit down on an occupied
bench and learn something.

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, September 17.-With
steel works operations at practically
the same rate as for last week, or not
far from 60 per cent for the country,
there are varying reports as to new
business apart from railroad demands,
Iron Age says. Chicago. as the chief
center of railroad activity. finds most
encouragement. Pittsburgh and east
ern steel companies qualify their
optimism, indicating that September
buying has been somewhat below eX-

In the heavier finished products at
tention has centered on the lower
prices some producers have named in
the past ten days to stimulate buying
and maintain the recent scale of
operations.
The Iron Age pig iron composite
price has been at $19.46 for fve
weeks. The finished steel composite
has declined slightly, or from 2.496
cents to 2.4s1 cents per pound.

chases amounted to about 100000
bushels. Estimates of a world short
age of 81 100000 bushels of wheat
as compared with last year attracted
considerable notice. The opening,
which ranged from IS decline to u
advance, with December 1885 to

Corn showed decided weakness. Fa-

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, September 1.-THE
stock market today finally got out OF
the rut in which it had been moving
for the last week or more and
started forward vigorously.
Encouragement was derived from
the action of the Crucible Steel di-
rectors after the close of business
Tuesday in maintaining the common
shares on the regular dividend basis.
This was a pleasant surprise to the
majority in the streets. which had
looked either for a cut or for the
passing of the dividend altogether.
The Inference drawn was that the
payment would not have been voted
had the management not felt sure
that the steel trade was on the mend.
Cruciblc Helps Steel stocks.
Other steel shares were imme-
diately affected by the sharp rise in
Crucible. Steel common lost all the
appearance of heaviness it had worn
on-previous days. Sloss-Sheftield in
which there have been for some time
indications of special buying, was
taken up again. The move in Colo
rado Fuel and Iron looked to be un-
der the same sponsorship which had
been back of the previous rise from

The ordinarily inactive United Drug

American Tobacco issues, which many

very noticeable as it has been for
