The year 1898 opens very encouragingly as regards the carpet trade and general business conditions. The tariff question, which a year ago was a most disturbing factor in all business, is now definitely settled, and we have in recent dispatches from Washington the positive assurance that no tariff tinkering of any kind is to be apprehended during the present session of Congress.....
About this time last year business failures were a disagreeably prominent feature, and although the carpet trade was even then on a better basis than many others, it could not altogether escapte some of the consequences of such financial stress.

MY WIFE'S SHOPPING....
"Good gracious!" said my wife, "do make haste then, Jack. There--this one will do; now, dear, where are the measurements?"
There was a moment's blank silence, and I, feeling as though I were back about school and about to get a jolly good row, said blankly, "What measurements?"
