 Local weather" prevailed i'll many sections of the United States today which brought to them tenn porary relief from the general heat wave which has held this country than a week.
 Rainstorms along many sections of the Atlantic seaboard, the south, Ohio Valley and the southwest late yesterday drove the mercury sharp 1y downward from the high attitudes that it had gained during the day.
 90 General Temperature
 Ninety was the general tempera- ture throughout the United States yesterday, with 98 at Baltimore and Oklahoma City highest. Rainfall which was heaviest at New Orleans and unusually great at Fl Paso. Tex, started today off much cooler in those favored sections but the weather bureau forecasts that the mercury will not stay down.
 The Ohio Valley this morning hal temperatures ranging from 4 to 12 degrees lower than yesterday, but along Lake Erie the temperature was four degrees higher.
 In many other regions where rain is badly needed. none fell. including Ontario where forest fires are raging year.
 Thunder showers Help
 Metropolitan New York experience ed thunder showers last evening that lowered the temperature but after a slow start today the mer, cury at 10 o'clock had climbed to so, just three degrees under the mark for the same hour yesterday.
 Not quite as warm today the country over, the forecast reads, but this probably means little to Edmon- ton, Alberta, where yesterday the mercury mounted to 10S degrees.

P. X r. Corbin's, Russell & Erwin's and the Stanley Works, while the- fourth concern is located in Stam- ford. There ale numerous small shops about the state that produce some line of builders hardware.
 The speaker dealt mostly on the builders hardware manufactured at P. t& F. Corbin's. Practically every large or important building in the country is outfitted with hardware from the local concern. The objeot of the national advertising of build CTS hardware by the Corbin concern is to create a general acceptance of the Corbin name.
