The Labor Problem.

Mr.. G. G. Coffin, of Boston, made an
argument before the Hewitt Labor Com
mitiee at Washington. He argued, first,
that machinery did not throw labor out
of employment, and instanced the great
advance that had been made since 1880,
which was the beginning of new civ
ilization. The factory system and rail
roads, inventions of telegraphy and pho
Biography, with the arts and industries
which they had established, called for
an immense number of men from the
farm, from the carpenter-shop, and va
rious other trades, and gave them a
higher position, one requiring more in
telGgence, for which they received
higher wages. He also argued that
wages had advanced from 1880 to the
present from 30 to 40 per cent, and the
cost of living, of articles that enter into
daily life, had not increased over IA per
cent; that savings were far greater to-
day than they ever had been in the past !;
that the mass of the people had more
for their money, added to comfort and
happiness, than at any other period in
the world. They were better housed,
and better clothed, and better fed as
mass than they ever had been. The
cotton manufacturers now, Coffin said,
have testified that machinery has added
thousandfold to the power of the indi
vidual over the loom and hand spinning
wheel. This being SO, and the fact that
the number of operatives employed in
cotton manufacture throughout the
world being set down at Ii, ,0O0, 900, they
are doing to-day what under the old
system of the hand wheel and loom
would require the labor of every man,
woman and child in the world to accom-
plish.
Mr.. Coffin said that before the inven-
tion of the cotton-gin the amount of
cotton cleaned by hand per day was four
pounds per individual. The cotton crop
of last year would have required by
hand labor 500,000,000 days work to
accomplish what is done by LOLA men
to-day, using the cotton-gi

How to Burn Coal.

A very common mistake is made and
much fuel wasted in the manner OF
replenishing coal fires, both in furnaces
and CRATES. They should be fed with
little coal at time, and often; but
servants, to save time and trouble, put
on great deal atsohce, the first result
being that almost all the heat is alb
sorbed by the newly-put-on coal, which
does not give out heat until it has be-
come red-hot. Hence, for a while the
room is cold, but when it becomes
fairly aglow the heat is insufferable.
The time to replenish a coal fire is as
soon as the Goals begin to show ashes
on their surface, then put on merely
enough to show layer of black coal
covering the red. This will soon kindle,
and, as there is not much of it, an ex-
cess of heat will not be given
out. Many also put out the fire by
stirring the CRATE as soon as fresh coal
is put on, thus leaving all heat in the
ashes when it should be sent to the new
supply of coal. The time to stir the
fire is just when the new coal laid on is
pretty well kindled. This method of
managing coal fire is troublesome, but
it saves fuel, gives more uniform heat,
and prevents the discomfort of alterna-
tions of heat and cold above referred
to.-Le,ois' Rural.

what il is" he said, with all the GOODNESS
imaginable, "if you don't leave
the Office this minute, Ill send for a
constable"
There was no need to attempt that
difficult operation. They were only try
ing it on, and, with an affectation OF
injured innocence, Mr.. Choker and his
satellite withdrew.
On another occasion, after Sam had
been some months in the Office, his un-
Gle came out of his room one day and
bade him go down ut once to Judges
chambers and look after some case that
was to come on there. 1t is a thing
that requires you 10 have your wits
about you to do that, for you come face
to face with shrewd Judge, who can
not tolerate fool The old clerks in
Mr.. Quicksett's Office appeared paEplyzed
with astonishment at such an order;
and one of them ventured, when par

Mr.. Quicksett's part. It's rather q
difficult case, sir, if you remember" he
urged.
"All right, Mustay," was the CHEEKY re-
ply" know what i am about. The best
way to learn to swim is to be pitched
neck and heels into deep water"
The suspense was great among the
ancients while Sam was away: but he
came hack in due time, and reported
that the case had come ON before the
Judge, and that his Lordship had made
an order in their clients favor. Did
he ask you any questions?" inquired
Mustay. "Oh, yes! and i answered
them" said Sam; but he did not men
ton, for he did not know it, nor will il
be mentioned in the memoir of the
learned Judge when it comes out, that
accustomed as he was to ready answers,
it had actually crossed his mind for a
moment that the funny little lawyers
clerk would make a capital witness-he
was so ready, and said neither more
nor less than was wanted.
Whether q good witness would al
ways make good lawyer we need not
decide but it is certain that, in course
of time, Sam made a very good one in
deed. He was one of those not uncom-
mon cases where supposed deficiency
is superficial only, and where far more
grave deficiency is to be found in those
who, by constantly laughing at it, run
the risk of making it lifelong imbe-
cility. Sans relatives never laughed
at him again after the first visit he paid
them, though they often laughed with
