PA. STEEL BESSEMER
RESUMES OPERATIONS
General Improvement in the Steel
Trade Predicted; Big Order
Is Booked Locally
The first local indication of Improve
ment in the iron and steel trade which
has taken a turn for the better, was
felt to-day when the Bessemer mill of
the Pennsylvania Steel plant resumed
operations.
This mill was out since September 1.
Beginning this morning it will turn
out twelve heats of steel by the du
plex system.
That the improvement on the steel
trade will be felt generally within the
next few months, is predicted by the
Iron Age, a leading trade journal this
morning.
In part it says: "Pig iron buying
has increased; as to that there is no
doubt. In finished steel markets the
expectation of better buying just ahead
is stronger, for inquiry has grown,
and in some lines the decline in or
ders has stopped. Many manufactur
ing consumers seem to be waiting for
the reductions in .labor cost which it is
widely believed will become effective
January. 1. Whether prices meantime
will discount them is the question
close buyers are trying to answer.
"The export movement is still much
below the average of the first six
months of the year. The French con
tracts for 3*4 -In. shrapnel rounds
went at low prices, about IS,OOO tons
being divided between two Pittsburgh
companies.
"The Inquiry of the New York Cen
tral for 25,000 tons of rails is likely
to result in winter rollings for one
mill, at least. Otherwise the rail
makers have little to relieve the pros
pect of a very lean winter. The Penn
sylvania Steel Company has booked a
3,500-ton order and the Ensiey mill
has a week's double-turn operation
ahead. Rails were part of the cargo
of the first steamer of the new Mobile-
San Francisco line which sailed from
Mobile last week."

With the return this morning, of

metal arms. It is also proposed to
change the location of many lights to
secure better distribution. Many addi

resulted in a "fountain-like appear

discussed and Dr. Dixon pave his ad
dress.
Dr. Dixon's Address
Dr. Dixon's address, which attracted
much attention, was headed by these
epigrams:
"Often the air in a hovel Is purer
than that in a pretentious mansion.
"More people die from the improper
use of steam heat than freeze to death.
"Wealth has no monopoly on clean- j
liness.
"Houses must not only be well built,
they must be well used."
In the course of his talk the com
missioner said:
"The term 'housing conditions' must
have a broad definition. If our labors
are to be thorough we must follow the
man, woman and child through the
twenty-four hours of the day, where
they sleep, where they eat, where they
play, in the schyolroom. in the church,
in the workroom and in the hospitals.
"1 havp found little wooden shacks
loosely constructed with plenty of knot
holes and furnished with large sashes
that have been more sanitary than
some of the large houses. Our people
In all circles of life want to be edu
cated in health measures. In the last
few years small houses have been much
improved in appearance, which has its
moral effect, yet these small dwellings
are too often heated with direct steam
or hot water plants. The old shacks
when kept clean were often more
healthful. Some of the foreigners who
come to this country for a short time
with the Idea of saving all they make
so they may return home with
their little fortunes will have to be
deprived of the miserable tenement
house accommodations, as they are
breeders of disease. In some of these
places the mattresses never get cold,
as one shift follows close on the heels
of the other. Such housing will have
to be broken up and better homes
built.
"In facing this broad problem one
of our greatest aids is education.
People must be taught to use the
homes which they have to the best
possible advantage and they must in
turn become missionaries to teach
others.
"This Is a great work and the efforts
of the state must not be too paternal.
It will not do to say that the people
must build a certain type of house.
We can, however, say that certain
things must be avoided which would
Injure the health of the Individual In
the community. Individuals, munici
palities and nations must be their
'brother's keeper'. It is a mistake to
discourage initiative. Permit everyone
to build with only the limitation of
that which will directly or indirectly
reflect upon someone else.
"Our tuberculosis nurses working In
every community in the state have be
come familiar with the housing prob
lems and needs of the poor people.
The work of our health officers in the
rural districts and boroughs lead them
to those places where there Is a need
for Improvement. Our school in
spectors have under their supervision
the structures in which our children
spend so large a portion of their time.
"The work of the housing bureau
has dovetailed in with the other work
which is being done by our little army
of workers throughout the state. Un
der this growing system It offers an
economical and effective method of
handling the work with practically the
same overhead charges and saves
duplications of machinery and the
overlapping of responsibilities."
The Governor's Remarks
One of the big features was the pres
entation of a certificate of honorary
membership in the Engineers' Society
of Pennsylvania to Governor John K.
Tener. The Governor in his re
sponse said the State had gone for
ward in all departments In four years.
He praised the manner in which the
new Department of Labor and Indus
try had Hteeured results, the work of
the Health Department, the military,
highway, legal, Insurance and other
departments, nil of which had won
credit for doing some "real practical
things that counted for fhe betterment
of our citizenship, the conservation of
life, health and property."
The Governor said that he regret
ted that a workmen's compensation
act had not been passed. "I regret

FOR SOUR STOMACH
GAS OR INDIGESTION
Surely Use Mi-o-na—lmmediate,
Safe and Effective Relief
or Money Refunded
When you have heartburn, pains In
the pit of the stomach and taste sour
and undigested food it's a sure sign
your last meal Is not digesting, but
fermenting, causing poisonous gases,
sourness and acid stomach. Such
symptoms must not go unheeded, for
they indicate indigestion, which will
surely destroy your health and hap
piness.
Prompt and lasting relief for any
stomach distress Is a simple inexpen
sive matter if you will only try the
harmless Ml-o-na prescription easily
obtained from any druggist.
Ml-o-na Is especially prepared to
neutralize excess acid, absorb the
poisonous gases and stop fermentation
which surely sours your food causing
sick headache, dyspepsia, biliousness,
bad dreams, and nervous unrest.
Ml-o-na not only corrects sour, acid,
and gassy stomach, but improves the
entire digestive system so that the
blood, nerves, muscles and skin all
receive increased nourishment causing
clear complexion, bright eyes and that
delightful sensation of "feeling fit."
It's certainly needless for you to suf
fer any after-eating distress or stom
ach misery. Ask H. C. Kennedy for
some Mi-o-na tablets, take them as
directed, and If they do not quickly
banish every sign of tndlgestlon they
will not cost you a penny.—Advertise
