hog, curving his back as he watches the
dog, defying the law for his bread and
| meat roaming at large through every
street; hunting, granting, nosing around,
till the open front gate is sure to be found
with its hinges broken and ruined quite,
by the lovers who hung there Sunday
night: it went stay shut; it won't hang
level; so in walks the hog and raises the
devil" However, hearing from the ISL
| and COWS will be in order.

having previously made the demand for an
increase in wages of 80 cents per thousand,

claim that their demand is only fair one; ;
the manufacturers could give them the 50
cents and still have gam Of s. so, and
this sum could be divided with the con-
sumers and still have a handsome amount.
We understand that two or three OF the
manufacturers have agreed to pay the ad-
vance, and their men have accordingly
,opa 70 work All the other factories are
idle. -Ste,bcnrilie Gl-ette.
