A bill providing for 8 voluntary trade tribunal has passed the Pennsylvania Senate and will probably pass the House. Origin ally the bill applied only to the coal, from and steel trades. As amended, the glass and textile fabric industries are included in the provisions of the measure. Five employers or twenty-five workmen petitioning, the Court of Common Pleas is to issue 8 license for these tribunals which are to arbitrate be- tween employers and those who work for them. The disputants will choose the mem bers of this board of arbitration, and mutu- ally decide upon an umpire, who is to act in case the tribunal cannot agree upon 8 fnd- ing. Where the price of labor is at stake, the award of the tribunal is binding only when the employers or workmsn acquIesce in the result. Other awards of the umpire, if confirmed by the judge having jurisdic- tion, may be enforced by the court. These tribunals have worked well in Great Britain and there is no reason why they should not in PennsylYania.

The lists are published gratis by the local papers, and the total sum col lected is given to the institute of the poor The lists are scrutinized very closely, partic- ularly by ladies, who buy the papers pub fishing the names, and woe to the man whose name is not found on the list It would show that he does not frequent society at all, or that he does not care to comply with it's obligations, or that he has not got the 3s 3d., or, finally, that he prefers to make the calls personally at his own trouble and ex- pense.

a Gigantic Drunk.

Jack Ryder tells n good one of Girls
void the well-known funny man. One
day Girls. was in Nashville and was
seized with fierce and uncomfortable
desire to get drunk, for Griswold, when
drunk, was absolutely the funniest of
all the humorists. Not knowing a
soul in town, Girls. walked up to the
bar of one of the most fashionable re-
sorts in Nashville and began talking to
himself rs if he had just met q warm
friend; ''Gris..' said he in hollow
voice, 'tGr:s. take drink,
"Oh! no, I've sworn off," he con-
tinued in his natural tones.
The imaginary man urged and
yielded, and the bar-keeper, who evi-
IDENTIFY took Girls. for crazy man. set
out one set of glasses but the imagi-
nary man demanded two. Girls. took q
glass in each hand, cinked them to-
gether, and with Heres to YOU ole
fell and .'drink hearty on the part of
the imaginary friend, Girls drained
both glasses. Then the imaginary man
urged Girls. TO sing a song, and after
demurring for some time Gria. oon-
sented and sang. This, of course, led
to another treat, and Girls. kept up the
circus for over an hour. Bv this time a
great gang of boods had congregated
listening. and at the end of the last
song they rushed up and grabbed Girls.

Just let them say you Tilted me,
Frances, if they please to do SO. We
know better, and we will keep oul
secret until Uncle Miles comes
around"
Aunt and uncle both came around
sooner than was expected. When it was
known that Stephen spent so much OF
his time with US, Aunt Miles considered
the advantages of having her daughters
brought familiarly in contact with him,
and for their sakes she came to see me
and gave me the kiss of reconciliation.
But as far as catching Stephens heart
81 in the rebound was concerned, she
was just little too late. Norman's s
sister, who was teacher in one of the
public schools of New York, came to
spend her vacation with US, and Stephen
fell in love with her in a way which con-
vinced me that his love for Frances
Halliday had only been the shadow of
the love he had for mother. Why; n or
man himself never behaved more fool
ishly about me than Stephen about this
little, plain Ruth Strong, for she is plain
every one must allow that.

often laugh at the kind of people he
comes in contact with. But hope Ste
phen viii be happy; do, indeed.
That is all | have to say about my
marriage. 1 think it was rather pecul-
lar. Some women will doubtless say
they don't believe such men as Stephen
exist; but let a girl when she discovers
she does not like a man, tell him so,and
ask his advice and help, and ten to one
she will find another Stephen. How
can men be chivalrous and self-denying
if women don't give them opportunities? !?
| think that is wrong, and | intend al
ways to give Norman every chance to
cultivate such noble qualities.

"Repeaters.

On the broad, cool piazzas of many q
pleasant seaside and mountain hotel are
the repeaters, just now in fun and I'M
eheckable operation. Unlike the ere
peaters" of our grandfather's days,
those clumsy but fascinating timepieces
which told the hour only when asked
for it. the modern repeaters do not wait
for appeal-do not even wait for oppor-
tunity, but seek out time and place
with a tireless pertinacity as astonish-
ing as It's disastrous. They have not
the originality of the gossip, but to the
often thoughtlesS tittle-tattle of the Cos
SIP they add renown peculiarly their
own, SO that words which seem but
thistle-down upon the summer air, come
feather-envenomed darts which cause
long fostering wounds.
Who does not know the repeaters and
their work? Who has been so fortu-
nate as thus far tc have escaped the
tongue of these people who repeat the
idle words uttered before them, adding.
by some triaiIS reflection, some slight
but insignificant look, some meaning
gesture, a new and wicked import? To
the object of some casual remark it Is
the repeaters greatest joy to resay the
words, with such comment as NAV
supply any sting which otherwise might
be lacking. Even compliment, if
ever so hearty, may in sneering repeti-
ton become the bitterest of sights, and
the repeater has at command a great
variety of methods of distortion and en-
venoment 1t is impossible to measure
or number the heartburnings, the ieal-
ousies, the malice and all uncharitable-
ness which is stirred up by this mis-
chlef-making class of people, How
many friendships are broken, how MANY
lovers separated, how much good un-
done and evil consummated, during toe
summer campaign of even a single one
OF these repeaters, of whom the name is
legion and the zeal untiriug.
They are seldom deliberately mali
clous, however. For the most part
there is nothing worse than the thought
Iessness OF small and unoccupied minds
behind the mischief OF which we are
speaking. A loosely knit mind, like a
loosely woven sack, can hold nothing:
and whatever is put into it is inevitably
spilled through the gaping meshes. It
IS, perhaps, easier to combat definite
and deliberated malice than the evasiye
purposeless, pulpless personality of the
generality of repeaters. There is moth
ing but to avoid them; to keep out of
their way as one would shun plaque
stricken person, 1t is not difficult to
detect them, and it is impossible not to
encounter them. Any hopes of REFORM
ing them are as empty as air, 81 ice
their faults are inherent, the natural re-
suit of the lamentable constitution of
their minds. A repeater cannot be re-
formed, cannot be conquered, and is
only to be escaped by flight. The father
IN the fable told his son: The way to-
fight q snake is to run;" and the same
method is the best and only safe one to
apply to repeaters. s.-BoStoH Courier.

WORKING Women and Others,


There may be some few women
whose place is in the world, some who
are happy in bluffing about-some who
arc successful. But these few stand in
the same relation TO their sisters as
does man of genius to his ordinary
brother; an unnatural thing, an
anomaly. The few women who enjoy
such life as it is known that woman
of the working world must live, have,
by their injudicious over-enthusiasm,
done more harm than they dreamed
they were remedying The indepen-
dence of women has cast such q light
upon their natural pleasing dependence
that it must be admitted it is now ter
ribly unprepossessing. Woman's suffer-
ing is very closely allied to woman S
suffrage; woman's wrongs overlap
woman's rights. Fifty women are un-
happily at work where there is one hap
PLY not; and there are just about fifty
women working where one needs to be,
or rather, ought to be, or would be, if
women had let women alone.
A woman is not fitted for working
life. Physically she may be ahl0 90
stand it; mentally she NAV dash and
brighten of hoart, tho true woman
quivers, and breads the fists as well as
the tongue of the world.
The unhappiest woman l know is a
brilliant woman of semi-Bohemian-lit-
erary society. Envied, but not enviable;
admired, but not loved. The wittiest
woman of her city, her bon mots are
the cleverest at the clubs. A clever and
thinking woman, her work is as clever
and thoughtful. She says: Il would
rather be the weakest, the least talented
woman in the world, the honest wife of
an honest man who would love me, and
let me love him, than the most beauti-
full, successful woman of the world !
would rather be the slave of a house
hold than queen usurping masculine
rights. y
The happiest woman l know lives in
small one-story cottage, behind which
are two tiny rows of corn and a patch
of sunflowers, and little brook that
thirstily hurries along to find more wa
ter. All she has in the world to ''pro-
tect" her is the strong-limbed, hearty,
unambitious husband, who pauses but
few times from morning till night, even
to wave a willing hand at her from a
small marble quarry two rods away.
She says: 81 will work for Tom in my
way, but he must work for me. A wo-
man who will, may. Boston TraUeler

And so we laughed at those wise men who
came and put in all SUCH talk
As-.Two such roosters cannot thrive unless

With common purpose sou yht the wealth for

We talked together of the days-as only part

When he would be head butcher and ] an alder
man.
And many a day we wandered together
through the streets
looked up fat stock to buy and he to sell the
meats,
And pick up cats and pups and things which
all US butchers prize,
To work in with our sausages and other home
supplies.
And many quiet evening we'd taint the sum-
By driving to the rivers brink to dump our
Oifal there.
Then we'd talk in consultation of the latest
spec we'd made,
TIL the village lamps and other lights had
settled into shade;
And through it all no thoughts arose that we
had made q miss,
By dropping off the oyster trade and going
into this.
We talked of wealth as boldly as we talked of
sheep or steer,
And thought no more of quitting biz than we
did of quitting beer.
"Well, tend the shop old fellow'-I took my
basket up to go,
Ny going meant my leaving, Gs you surely
ought to know;

and sell that heart"
"And if you cannot sell that roast, why, try
