NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, MARCH 16, 19 'VERY woman in the least familiar with good housekeep- ing knows that dampness, moisture, water, above all things, are the most destructive to floor coverings. And, by the same rule, she knows that a waterproofed rug is more las ting than a rug that isn’t waterproofed. One of the outstanding advantages of a Bird’s Neponset Rug is that it is Waterproofed on both sides and all the way through, Which means that dampness or moisture or water cannot affect it. A Bird's Neponset Rug cannot rot, because being water- proofed completely, these destroying elements cahnot get under and at it. B o ST Thus it has many times the life of a non-waterproofed rug and at least double the life of any rug protected on the top side only. That’s just plain common sense and it stands to reason, Come in and see these beautiful modern floor coverings. The new Spring patterns and colors are here. No need to wait for a “sale.” Bargaip A Bird’s Neponse whenever you buy it, - And the prices— t Rug is a B. C.

Only 1,000,000 tons a week go- ing into storage {n anticipation of con) strike. This indicates gt'nl‘rabl husiness is 27 per cent, better than a year ago. Steam coal output now is a better barometer of average busi- ness than pig iron output, More Jobs Nearly every industry in New York state reports material and steady gains in employment, says official re- port of industrial commission. New York is hational jobs barometer. It runs 30 to 60 days ahead of other slates, After It Postoffices in 50 leading cities re- port stamp sales the biggest on re- cord, about twice as big as 1912, Must make allowances for stamp gains due to population increase. But the hig stamp sales indicate busi- ness has bucked up and started’ a heavy fight for orders. Country is moving into a period of high-pres- sure salesmanship and heavy adver- tising. Hat Making Gains Hat factories, almost without ex- ception, are running at capacity, be- hind on orders. But hat manufactur- ers are keeping their feet on the ground, for most orders are for im- mediate delivery, only two months' bopkings on hand. No letup in sight, tMough.! Outlook is for buying close to the market, ‘as in many other in- dustries, due to price uncertainty. Pig Not Squealing Pig iron output, which anticipates steel production 90 days, is nearly as big as in early 1914. Steel sales are heavy enough (near 1913 average) that prices recently have been ad- vancing on bars, shapes and plates. Price stiffening indicates confidence in spring business. Trend steadily upward. 2 Great Britain, normally aur near- est iron-producer competitor next to Germany, is making only a third as much iron as before the war. Farms Better Nearly every branch of farming in Nebraska now is on profitable basis, due to recent rise in prices of farm vie. Speculators Stir Speculators are betting on recovery. Comkined capitalization of new oil concerns now averaging $100,000,000 a month, against $38,772,000 last July, when general business turned the corner. Oil flotations rise and fall with business courage. IS MADE ADMIRAL Coast Guard Official is Given Hon- orary Title in Prohibition Enforce- ment Flect. Washington, March 16.-—Lieut R. L.

Chicago, March 16.—Longer skirts for women, lower steps for stréet cars or blinders for men—Chicago must have one of the three in order to prevent a steady increase in accidents, Alderman Leo Klein declared yester- day in introducing an ordinance be- fore the city council providing for lower street car steps. The women wear such short skirts that when they start to climb up the high street car steps—well, the men can't seem to keep their eyes to the front and many accidents happen, among motorists, ex- plained Mr. Klein. MODERN. GIRL SCORED Colorado “Tiger” Assails the Views of Dean Ella McCaleb of Vassar Col- lege. Colorado Springs, March 16.—The “Tiger,” Colorado colleg2 newspaper, in an editorial yesterday takes issue with Dean Ella McCaleb of Vassar, who defends the modern girl. “We seldom reflect,” says the ar- ticle. “All we try to do is keep going. This is the age of jazz, the flapper and the snake. All play their parts and how degrading that part is some- times!” “Dean McCaleb may have had thirty-seven years’ experience’ with girls, but nevertheless, we have our doubts. To look at some of the mod- ern girls on the campus with their short skirts, often showing bare knees; with their bobbed hair, and all their vanity and frivolity, man thinks a second time as to whether that type of woman would make him a hclpful mate through life.” MALTBY NOW CAPTAIN C Company, 169th Infantry, Lieuten- ant Is Given Promotion Hartford, March 16.—Upon recom- mendation of the commanding office 169th infantry, First Lieut.
