                                  =========      ==========

Financial Derivatives

The Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge certain
receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies.  Most
of the contracts are single currency.  Gains and losses on these
hedges, based on the difference in the contract rate and the spot
rate at the end of each month for all contracts still in force are
typically offset by transaction gains and losses, with net gains
and losses included in selling, general, and administrative
expenses.  While contract terminations are infrequent, gains and
losses are recognized in the month of termination in the same
manner.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"
(SFAS No. 133).  SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting
standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including
certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be
recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability
measured at its fair value and that changes in the derivative's
fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for
qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset
related results on the hedged item in the income statement, and
requires that a company formally document, designate, and assess
the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting.
The FASB has delayed the effective date of SFAS 133 to fiscals
years beginning after June 15, 2000.  The Company has not yet
quantified the effects of adopting SFAS No. 133 on its consolidated
financial statements nor has it determined the timing or method of
its adoption of SFAS No. 133.  However, SFAS No. 133 could increase
volatility in earnings and other comprehensive income.

Comprehensive Income

On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which is the
change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from
transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner
sources; it includes all changes in equity during a period except
those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to
owners.

Comprehensive income is the total of all components of
comprehensive income and other comprehensive income, including net
income.  Other comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses,
gains and losses that under GAAP are excluded from net income.  For
the Company, the only element of other comprehensive income is
cumulative translation adjustments arising from the translation of
certain balance sheet accounts from local currency to functional
currency.

For the quarter ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, comprehensive income
was $35.4 million and $35.5 million, respectively.  For the first
six months of 1999 and 1998, comprehensive income was $61.8 and
$72.6 million respectively.


Company Operations By Segment

The Chemical Products segment distributes biochemicals, organic
chemicals, chromatography products, diagnostic reagents and related
products for use in research and development, in the diagnosis of
disease and in manufacturing. These products are both manufactured
by the Company and purchased for resale.  The Metal Products
segment manufactures and distributes components for metal
frameworks used in industry to support pipes, lighting fixtures and
conduit, continuous networks of trays used in routing power and
telecommunications cabling, and electrical and electronic
enclosures. Sales between these two industry segments are not
significant. Cash and temporary cash investments are considered
available for general corporate purposes and, accordingly, are not
allocated to the identifiable assets of either segment.

The Company's operations by geographic segment are as follows:
