This brand is exported to all parts of the world wher" C¡"wlan,1 pig iron is used. A very large and important business iN transacted in the shipment of Redcar Pig Iron to Japan, China.

TKADE REPORTS. I CAHDIFP. EXCHANGE. Thursday. 11hcre is nothing of an encouraging nature to record in connection with the coal and other kindred trades. The return of boisterous weather hae already interfered with the move- ments of tOt1!Hlge, and the Illcre prospect of delay in this rcspect hM had an uutoward fT?(.t on Imsi"e88. On 'Change to-day coal- nero were well represented. )u t. 80 far as thn steam coal trado i6 concerned, sales were few and unimportant, while the transactions I reported were generally in buyers' favour. In 1 the present IIIwettled state of the market large forward buying was practically out of the question, a8 at the moment it is almost impos- 13il)leto f t with ..y I?? -rc, f accuracy j it WH;I; ;its( s;IO,f¡ VJc; month 0" two hence, and. consequently, both buyers and sellers were afraid to operate.

Hie Ill" 'n the steam coal trad'? hag unfavourably affected the hou83 eoq market, an the demand for shipment to-day waR perceptibly weaker.

AT AN INDIA-RUBBER FACTORY.
AT AN INDIA-RUBBER FACTORY. SOME INTERESTING PARTICULARS. In fine. summer weather Bradford-on-Avon would s! ,.¡J¡e the most casual observer n,9 one of 1ht\ m;)8t }}:clurc3quc towns in Wiltshire. But Bradford, writes a reporter in the "Bath But Br,?. d f(,rd. blinding Ltorm, tne rain d,- scending in torrents and Ihe Avon running over its banks a little surging sea. was not inviting. It sets the mind at once running on thoughts of mackintoshes and umbrellas. Perhaps a thought of mackintoshes was natu- rally associated with my visit, for I was bound for tho Kington India-Rubber Works, where I understood that one of the employes, Mr. Johu Lowe, of 24, Huntingdon-street, Bradford-on- Avou. was to be found. A call at the rubber mill brought me into contact with Air. Lowe, and a few minutes' conversation revealed the fact that he was as intellectually alert as he was physically fit-a typical West-countryman who was not only able to do a hard day's work but ",I ld also see a pleasurable outlook in life. "You wjll pardon me. Mr. Lowe," I said, "but YOll are not at all the sort of person I had been experting to see. I came to see Bonle. ono who had pulled through It sevevo illness." These remarks were received with a hearty laugh, and Mr. Lowe said: "You are not the only one surprised, and none more so than those who know me well. Twelve months I had a very bad attack of rheumatism. A more terrible time of suffering than I had it would be impossible to conceive. I was totally inca- pacitated, being quite unfit for anything in the form of work." Hr suppose you had medical adyice?" Y, I was attended by two doctors and at the Path Hospital; but not ven in the hos- pital did I grow any better." "Where did you feel the paiii?" "1 felt, it in every nerve of mr body. Some- times it would be in my head. and then I was almost distracted. Then, again, it would settle in my hands, and for days I was unable to do a single thing for myself, having to be fed like a child, and for one spell I was like that for nearly three weeks." "Had you suffered from this disease previously?" "Yes; I had an attack of it about fourteen years ago. but- it was nothing like so bad as thia one. On this occasion I spent pounds in frying to get rid of it. I could not poHsibly sav how many so-called'rcmcr1ic,' I tried, but I think I must have sampled nearly every- thing before I struck a genuine cure." "And what did cure you, Mr. I,owe?" "Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people; and had I only tried them earlier I might have saved myecif much money, and have escaped a great, deal or suffering." "How did rou become acquainted with this remcdy?" "One day. when I was lying suffers'ne in bed my wife asked if I would give Dr.Williii, pin], pills a trial. Someone had pushed a little book under the door, and. naturally enough, she read it. The book told of a case exactly like mine where a person had been cured. and she ame and told me. She was so determine.1 that I should try the remedy that File went out and bought a box of Dr. Williams' pink pills even before Ehe came to ak me if I would try them. For this I can never be too grateful. I had nardly started upon the second box before I began to feel decidedly better. There was an unmistakable, though gradual, dying away of the pain. I persevered, ind by the end of December last year was perfectly cured. Of course. I was practically hetter before then, but I deter- mined te keep on with the medicine until the 'ast vestice of the disease had di."pl10:1rc,1 And to effect this only a dozen boxes were required. "And have you felt no twinge of the pain oinc-c? "Not a, scrap. a/HI I never felt better than I do now. A few day. ago a relative from Bir- mingham visited me who had not seen me since I was at my worst, and he could hardlv believe that I nns the Sam" person. He told me I looked more than five years younger. 1 can walk as well as ever I could, and go hon) from the works to breakfast and back-more than half a mile, uphill, my house is—as well as any of them can do. And I never feel a twinge of my old foe, though I may have to come out cf a temperature that stands at about a hundred degrees into a h'ceaJ< winter wind."

MARKETS. I LONDON METAL MARKET. LONDON, Thursday. Tin-The Banca sale held in Amsterdam realised 78!Jg, or equal to X130 15s, laid down in Holland, but notwithstanding this very favour- able price the response on this market was feeble and temporary. This was possibly due to the numerous options falling due to-morrow, in view of which yesterday's chief support was practically withdrawn. About 450 tons sold, and compared with the final value of cash in the street last evening the initial bargain was put through at an advance of 7s 6d per ton, but before the close of the session a decline of 25B was noted. Cash realised £ 128 to £ 126 12s 6d to 1126 15-, December 1127 15s, £ 126 17s 6d, £ 127. Janna ry £ 127, £ 127 10a, February £127, X126 15s. three months £ 126 15s to £ 126 to £ 126 2s 6d, the decline on the last named being less pro- nounced than for cash. On second 'Change a fair business was done, and 250 tons sold. The leading "bulls" were inclined to do little more than look 011. and "bears" depressed prices, which closed 27s 6d lower for cash and 20s for three months compared with yesterday's official close. American representatives took small quantities* Cash sold L126 10s to £125 17s 6d, and three months £ 125 17s 6(1 to £125 10.. English ingots nominal. Settle- ment price £127 The Maryland, for Phila- delphia. has on board 25 tons.

LIVERPOOL. Thursday. Raeon: With heavy jiog receipts and lower prices on the other side a quiet rCI: ing again pervades the market here. and business pass- ing is only to cover pressing consumptive requirements; for the small supplies of Irish meats ready for delivery a steady tone is maintained at late quotations, but fancy cuts are occasionuJly e-.1sier to buy. houlders more difficult to sell, and late quotations are barely supported. Hams: Long cut. quiet, unchanged; light short cuts in small supply and steadily held; heavier weights Quieter and favour buyers; skinless continue firm on scarcity. Lard: C.i.f. rotes come lower, but with light offerings of prime Western previous prices are maintained, though refined remains quiet. and is again 3d per cwt easier. Cheese in moderate request at former currencies. Butter rulen firm with a fair demand. Eggs: Irish firm on scarcity, and best Continentals arc dearer; Canadian uncharged.

Many of these mixtures contain opiates that soothe and quiet the cough temporarily, but do not cure it. while thev are likely to disturb digestion, and thus do more harm than good. The cheapest remedy is the one that effects the most rapid and complete cure, and at the time builds up the health and strength and puts the system in a condition to resist catching cold again. Nothing is equal to Algiers Petroleum Emulsion for the prevention and cure of cou'I?? aud colds. It combines the soothing andhealmg pr(,p(?rtie? of our specially purified Petroleum with the tonic Qualitipb of the Hypophosphites of Lime and Soda, and -s perfectly simple and safe, even for the youngest infants, while it is pleasant to take and ;tgreps with the mOst delicate stomach.
