Financial - Accomplishments
:,. ot Fast Months arc batis
iactory to Manners in
Sweden.
(By Associated Press)
STOCKHOLM, Dec. 20. (Hy Mail).
nwcdish bankers, tf k ini; atnck of
the year 11)22, nre satisfied with the
financial accomplishments of the 12'
months. 1 here has been extensive
reconstruction and consolidation of
banks, and more than $HU,uOM,000 in
' losses has been written off, largely
-irom rcsei-ve funds. This sum
equal to about 27 Per cent of the
total resources of the private banks.
In no case did depositors suffer
loss. Bunkers believe that all dan
Kerous conditions hnve now been
- eliminated. A new issue of 40,000,
i 000 crowns in stock of the Svenskn
Hamlclbanken was absorbed iimnc
. diately.
The general economic record of the
year is regarded as satisfactory.
Lumber exports reached nearly !lu(),
000 standards, about euunl to
pre-war normal.
Exports of wood pulp anil piipc
increased steadily, upwards of 250,
000 tons of chemical pulp having been
shipped to the Unite. I Slates alone.
. Although the iron industries ate im
proving lather slowly, it is recorded
that the biprKest mining? company
exported nearly 4,000,0(10 tons of iron
ore, and that the United Slates mi
ported about half a million tons of
Swedish ore during the year. J he
textile industry is impi-ovinir rap
idly, having; increase.! its workine
foice about 25 per cent durinif the
year. The merchant has mncle pro
gress, as less than eight-tenths of I
per cent of the ships are now Idle,
compared with 44 per cent in July
or j 2 j.
Unemployment has been
from 108,000 at the beginning of the
year to about 118,000 during Decem
ber. ' Although wages have in most
cases been revised downward, this
, has been matched hy a reduction in
the cost of living. Lower prices on
food-stuffs, however, have reached
unfavorably on tho farmers, whose
crops have not been quite up to the
standard,
Meanwhile, Sweden's trade balance
is improving. During the first nine
months of the ytar Sweden! shipped
' 18,8H7,r,2.-worth ifv(,iii to the
United Statew, , which iyateahc
ord' foi the corresponding period of
lakt year hy about $7,000,000. . Dur

Almost everyone knows that Raw

luslre to the hair when (aded, jlrrakcd
or gray. Ycara ago the only way to
get tins mixture was to make it at

Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
atore for "Wycth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound." You will get a large bot
tle of this old-time recipe improved by
the addition of olhcr ingredients, at
very little cost. Kverybody uses this
preparation now, because no one can
Kasibly tell that you darkened your
ir it ,lw it cn naturally and even
ly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush I
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glony md you look years younger, J
