Old pewter has its own enduring charm
A heritage of our colonial age
When patterns followed lovely simple lines
And craftsmen put their art before their
wage.

1T is significant that revival Of a
i craft invariably is tribute to
its beauty and utility. Manufacture
of pewter ware is being revived to-
day, as are many of the artistic
crafts popular before and during
the early nineteenth century.
Pewter has great antiquity. 1t
was made by the Romans and as
early as 1348 the English had a
Pewters' Guild to assure high
standard of quality.
It originally was a substitute for
more precious metal, and replaced
wooden ware as taole service, but
finally was relegated to the kitchen
in favor of china.
Because pewter had such lOwly
place in the home, it was not highly
priced and, therefore, neglected by
collectors. In 1925 the Twentieth
Century Club of Boston had an ex-
hibit of marked pieces by American
makers, the irst public recognition
Of the fact that American pewter
was worthy of collectors enthu-
SiaSm.
The bowl here illustrated is re-
production of one Of the most dis
tinguished items in this exhibit. The
other Illustration is part of a tea
set owned by an early Robinson.
The set was divided among the
children, and this piece came to
me. 1t is a question whether this
is an extra pot for hot water or q
cream pitcher Maybe in the days
when houses had no screens, the
cream pitcher had lids.
DEWTER is a combination OF
Il metals. The foundation is tin
fused with lead, brass, or copper
The early ware was of two kinds,
fiat and hollow. The fiat ware con-
sisted of plates, platters, trays, etc,
These were made from fat piece
of pewter worked into shape by
hand, and usually were quite fine, as
high percentage of copper was re-
quired to make the pewter pliable.
The hollow ware was cast, and in
cluded bowls, called "basons," cups,
tankards, pitchers, porringers, tea
and coffee sets, etc. Spoons, knives
and forks also were cast.
Most pewterers marked their
pieces with their names and some
times the date or the figure of a
bird or flower. This was called a
touchmark.
Because of the character of the
metal, it was possible to melt and
recast pewter. Some homes had
their own molds and travelling
pewterers went about the country,
making new pieces and recasting
the old.
Also, great quantities were melted
to make bullets during the Revolt
tionary war. In this way many

BOND PRICES UP
AS OUTLOOK
BR|GHTENS
By MUNROE ROBERTS

NEW YORK, Sept. 8 GN.S). 4.
Rejecting the strength in the
shares market, bond prices dis
played further rallying tendencies
in forenoon trading today, with
gains of more or less important
character prevalent through the
list.
The run of speculative rail OBJ
legations were fractionally i'm

more and Ohio, Southern Pacific,
Erie, Chicago Great Western,
Nickel Plate, and Northern Pacific
being actively taken at fraction
ally improved levels.
In the domestic corporation list,
st. Joseph lead was a feature Of
strength, recording a 2-point ad-
vance to 891a. Bonds Of the
Postal Telegraph and Western
Union were fractionally improved
on good volume.
German government obligations
were better, with the 51as up "
point at 50A, and the Is up "
point at 1924. European govern
ment bonds generally were quiet
and firm.
The United States Government
list was slightly improved, with
the Treasury 31ss leading the
group with an advance of 4-32 to
98.2. Treasury IS were up 1872 at
1924, and Liberty fourth 4AS
were unchanged at 1884.

CLOTH MARKET

NEW YORK, Sept. U.N.S.).-
Although for the most part business
in the coarse yarn cloths market today
was at most only moderate, mills were
unusually strong in holding prices, and
there was little if any attempt on the
part of buyers to batter them down.
Second hands were letting out varying
lots of goods, chiefly for later ship
ments, and were getting from 1-16c
to 1sc yard under top market prices.
Broadcloths were active, and in lower
counts were at a premium for quick
shipment. Narrow sheetngs held
strong and some good sales were
booked. Some filling sateens moved at
strong prices. Easily the most i'm
portant business in print cloths was in
39-inch 4-yard 80 squares, which were
moved in large quantities at &c. In
one instance a large order was placed
for shipment chiefly within the month.
Another much larger order was booked
for shipments running to the end OF
In the past month, dispatch from
Boston says. the fine cotton goods in
dustry experienced the greatest selling
activity on record, with some 1000, 900
pieces, or 120. 100000 yards sold As

pieces monthly. sales have been Of

having fully equaled the rise of nearly

BRISK TRADING
MARKS CURB
SESSION
BY THEODORE KOsLOW

NEW YORK, Sept. 8. QN.SO
Curb stocks resumed their forward
march with renewed enthusiasm
today, and in a session which was
in most ways a replica Of the
hectic 1929 bull market days, the
list as a whole forged ahead to
within reach Of the former resis-
tance points of the current recov-
cry phase.
The market was featured by q
heavy accumulation of buying or
ders at the outset which carried
many stocks sharply higher.
Thereafter, a period Of profit
taking developed which resulted
in the cancelling Of part Of these
gains, but this recession was short
lived, and stocks were coming
back strongly in the face of new
outside demand midway in the
session.
Specialties Lead
The speciality group was again
in the limelight as speculative
groups took advantage Of the
Improved sentiment to mark up
the prices of their favorites.
Parker Rustproof was the leading
performer, showing a gain Of
more than Z points in reflection
of the spirited advances in mo-
tor accessory shares Of the big
board. Little Cord Corporation
shot up almost 2 points to a new
high for the year at 87s. Other
strong spots were Great Atlantic
and Pacific Stores, which rose 2
points to 152, and Aluminium,
which showed a gain Of ia
points at its high of 86A.
Utilities Hit Snag
The utility group experienced
greater difficulty in making any
important price progress, al,
though American Light and Trac-
ton worked up 15s points to "a,
and United Light and Power was
up almost a point net at 9. Elec'
trio Bond and Share, American
Gas and Electric, and American
Superpower, among the run of
active favorites were in supply at
levels slightly above previous clos.
ingS.
The Cities Service group con
tinued to show a generally sulky
tone, the common unable to
break through it's previous close
at 534, while the 5 per cent de
bentureS Of so were fractionally
lower.
Trust Shares Up
Investment trust shares were
actively taken, however, as specu
lators sensed that further ad
vances here might be expected az
a result of the market apprecia
ton being showed by their port
folio holdings. Blue Ridge con
vertible preferred advanced a full
point to a new high for the veal
at 331s, while in the lower priced
classification, Atlas Corporation
and Goldman Sachs were the best
actors.
Oils did comparatively little
with a firm tone displayed by
Standard of Indiana and Stand
ard of Kentucky.
The bond division was generally
quiet, with speculative demand
veering away from the utility

stock list.

to reconsider.
Borah declared the prohibition
plank was a generality" which
really stood for nothing but repeal

Borah charged further that the
plank, which calls for submission
of a states rights" substitute for
the eighteenth amendment, was
drafted and put through the con-
vention by men who actually stood
for repeal.
This drew quick and formal
statements of denial from Post

tary of Treasury Mills, two of
Hoover's closest political advisors
and members of the platform COM
mittee at Chicago.
Brown asserted that before the
convention Borah himself had been
working on a resubmission plan.
Informed of Browns statement,
Borah snapped
THAT is not true. I shall have
more to say about it Tuesday"
Borah withdrew his charge that
Brown personally favored repeal.

Three Killed In

PATERSON, N. j., June 81. U.P)-
A night long quarrel over children
who refused to obey their STEP
father ended in mass homicide to-
day when Mohammed DoSti, 80,
a revolver in each hand, raced
through his home firing indiscrim-
inately, killed his wife, Minnie: s
two stepsons, Hyman Simmons, 81,
and Benjamin Simmons, II, and
wounded Ruth Simmons, Is.
Dosti, Turk, married an Amer
lean woman with four children by
a previous marriage, and insisted
upon Oriental standards in the
family relations. The step-sons re-
belled. Their mother sided with
them.
Benjamin died instantly. His
mother and brother, Hyman, died
an hour later in a hospital. The
sister, Ruth, awakened from Sleep
stepped into the hall into the path

is the solution On the contrary, I
have become more and more con-
vinced that the true remedy is to
be found in modifying the
eighteenth amendment, and at tho
same time stamp out the unde-
niable evils that exist today"
To Borah's charges that the plank
offered no guidance to the voters,
Mills replied that its principles
could be summarized in one SEN
tence: Returning to the states
initiative, determination and re-
sponsibility, and retention in the
federal government of sufficient
power to attain two specifically
named detectives" These objec-
tives would be protection of states
which chose to remain dry, and
prevention of the return of the
saloon.
