A Single Application
Banishes Every Hair
(The Modern Beauty)
Here is how any woman can easily
and quickly remove objectionable, hairy
growths without possible injury to the
skin: Make a paste with some powdered
delatone and water, apply to hairy sur
face and after 2 or 3 minutes rub off,
wash the skin and the hairs are gone.
This is a painless, inexpensive method
and, excepting where the growth is un
usually thick, a single application is
enough. You should, however, be care
ful to get genuine delatone.—Adv.

BIG mm STEEL AND PIC
IRON OUTPUT LAST MONTH
\
Statistics Show Large Increase in Jan
uary Production Over That of De
cember —Fourteen More Blast Fur
naces in Operation
\
New York, Feto. 5. —"The Iron
Ago" eays that since the steel com
panies were responsible for practically
all of it, the January increase in pig
iron production gives a measure of'the
gain in steel works output. Our statis- j
tics show a total make of 1,601,421 j
tons of pig iron last month, against 1,-J
515,752 lons in December, a gain of
85,669 tons or 2,763 tons a day. The
steel works furnaces made 1,115,944 j
tons in January, against 1.034,802
tons in December, a gain of 81,000
tons or about 8 per cent.
The total numfber of furnaces in blast!
February 1 was 160, against 146 on:
January 1, the Steel Corporation con-j
trfbuting 10 to the increase and the in
dependent steel companies 4. The ca
pacity of all furnaces in blast February
1 was 56,270 tens a day against 4 8,-
848 tons a day one month previous. Thi>
Stoel Corporation is to ptit three addi
tional furnaces in blast this week —
one Lorain and two Shoewberger.
Operations in the Steel Corporation's
plants are now on the basis of nearly
55 per cent, of ingot capacity. Its
statement of unfilled orders as of Jan
uary 31 ;s expected to show an in
crease of 150,000 to 200,000 tons.
The feeling in the steel trade this
week is better, and the larger compa
nies look for a further moderate in
crease in output in the next six weeks.
The increased ability of the railroads
to get money and its further accumula
tion are factors in the situation of
which more is heard. Rail buying is
still far from normal, tout each week
adds to the total. The Chicago &
Northwestern has placed 27,000 tons;
the.'Nickel Plate, 2,500 tons; the ISrie,
over 30.000 tons, of which 22,000 tons
went to Pittsburgh and 6,000 tons to
Chicago; the Boston & Maine, 15,000
tons, which will be delivered from Buf
falo via Krie Canal; the B. & 0., about,
25,000 tons, of which 7,000 tons went
to the Carnegie Steel Company and 5,-
000 to the Illinois Steel Company. The
Maine Central is in the market for 8,-
500 tons.
Several manufacturers of bars, plates
and shapes in the Central West have
announced that while sales for Feb
ruary will be made at 1.10 c., the price
for March deliveries will foe 1.15 c. anil
for the second quarter 1.20 c. As here
tofore, volume of business will decide
how far these prices can be maintained,
and their announcement may stimulate
February bookings. Plates in particular
are not linn at I.loc.
Sheeit manufacturers operating union
mills now have up with the Amalga
mated Association the question of wage
reductions to meeit those made by some
mills which do not sign the scale. These
have amounted to 10 to 15 per cent. In
other mills, alto, the severe conditions
of recent months have been met by a
system under which fewer men are em
ployed for a given output. In galvan
ized sheets, the spelter situation has
brought a further advance, and 3c. is
now asked for No. 28.
