that man's success In life Is not meas

rather by what he does for humanity.
"In those matters in which the
permanent wealth of nations is con
cerned, In the long future of mental
and spiritual development, the name
of Harrlmaa," said Dr. Jordan, "finds

would be Interesting to know who
was its author. Another, founded on
a similar subject, was the "Advice
to persons who have 'fallen In love'

Weekly Review of Trade and
Market Reports. .
R. O. Dun ft Co.'s weekly review
of trade says: '
"Changes in the line of moderate,
Improvement. Crop prospects are
better, and this Is plainly Indicated
by the downward tendency of prices.
Visible Improvement Is taking place
In the iron and steel trade, and this
is the best development of the past
few days. There Is a larger demand
for both pig Iron and for finished
products, especially in agricultural
and structural lines. Demand from
railroads for equlment Is somewhat
restricted by uncertainty regarding
freight ratee, yet some good business
in rolling stock Is regarded as cer
tain, and rails have been taken In
modern amounts.'
Bradstreet says:
"Quiet still rules in trade and
many lines of industry, while specu
lation, exoept in grain, seems in a
waiting stage, pending clearer views
of ultimate crop and price outcome.
Relatively most activity in jobbing
trade Is centered In meeting current
demands, and fall business still
lacks form. Retail trade has shown
some gain at leading Western mar
kets, but is Btlll classed as below ex.
pectations. Unseasonably cool
weather is very commonly assigned
as the cause for backward trade, but
there are still In evidence the signs
that uncertainty as to prices hold
back future commitments. '

Kmancipation In China.
Notwithstanding that part of the
Imperial rescript abolishing slavery
in China Is nominal rather than an
actual manumission, consisting in
prohibiting the retainers of the Man
chu princes from being called slaves
hereafter and the designating the
household slaves of the Manchus as
hired servants without changing
their coudition of bondage for life,
its general terms will eventually lem
to the freedom of millions of human
beings and put a Btop to slavery In
the empire. A notable provision is
that forbidding the sale of children
in times of famine, an immoral cus
tom, although' still permitting as s
compromise terms of bonde? service
until the age of 25.
The issue of the rescript makes
at least a significant beginning to
ward the ultimate freedom of the

Homing A lUiok Seller.
A well-dressed man was standing
outside a bookseller's shop In Char
ing Cross road, closely examining
one of Balzac's works, Illustrated by
Ciustave Dore. "How much is this
Balzac?" he asked an assistant out
side. "Twenty-five shillings," was the
reply.
"Oh, that's far too much. I must
see the manager about a reduction,"
continued the prospective customer,
nnd, suiting the action to the word,
he took up the book and went into
the shop.
Approaching the bookseller he took
the book from under his arm and
ask what he would give for It. "Sev
en shillings, hlgh'-t offer," he was
told.
The offer was accepted; the man
took his money and left.
"Well," queried the assistant later,
after the man had gone, "were you
able to hit it off with the gentleman,
sir?"
"Oh, yes; I managed to get an
other copy of that edition ot Balzac
for seven shillings."
Then the bookseller went out to
lodge a complaint with the police.
