Effect of Trades nionlsm on Wages.

The struggle for a greater share of
these profits is, of course, one Of the
main objects of the unions, and brings
them into direct antagonism with en-
ployers; but it is satisfactory at any rate,
to note that much ofthe old blindness and
bitterness has disappeared. The volun-
tary courts of arbitration and Cancellation
may be credited with this result. In
them the union representatives get a real
knowledge of the difficulties and fuctu-
atoms of trade, and come into personal
relations with employers, by which both
sides learn to make allowances. Dis
putes as to the rate of wages can never
cease until the development of association
has made the interest of employer and
employed identical. When that time
comes, trades-unions will disappear.
Meantime, they have done this signal
service, that the conflict is now, on the
workman's side, maintained by an organ
lied force and not by bands Of guerillas

A story.

Mr.. Isaac c. Chapman, druggist, Newburg,
N. Y, writes us: ~ have for the past ten
years sold several gross of DR.. VIM. Halls
Balsan for the Lungs. I can say Of It what
l cannot say of any other medicine. Ihaye
never heard a customer speak of it but to
praise its virtues in the highest manner 7
have recommended it ina great many cases
Of W~hooping cough, with the happiest effects.
4 hare used it in my W family for many
years in fact, always have a bottle in the
medicine cIoset.n

Rose Coghlan, the &C, ress, smokes

queen Ranavalona III. Of Madapas-
car made this brave speech at her coro-
nation: Il shall prove myself a soldier,
ever ready to defend the land of our
ancestors"
A little girl Of three explains the
Golden Rule to her sister: ut means
that you must do everything l want
you to, and you mustn't do anything I
don't want you to-"
There are forty-fve women medical
s~tudentsin Paris, the majority of whom
are sclays. At Liege the number has
increased to twenty-six. At Geneva
there are seven, at Zurich thirty-three,
and at Berne twenty-eight.
There is a School of Domestic Econ
omy in Edinburgh, Scotland. Miss A.
G. Griggs is the teacher of cookery.
There ought to be schools for learning
general housekeeping in all the Ameri-
can cities, with diplomas for those who
completed the course.
1t is a very hopeful sign to see wo-
men taking the interest in scientific
studies that they are of late. Nothing
will so tend to give them mental disci-
pine and broad interest in humanity
as this. 1t is to be noted that Miss
Gilchrist, a member of the Faculty of
the Iowa State Normal School, is lee
turing on electricity. She illustrates
her lectures with brilliant expert
ments.
In England, with a population of
t~liirty-six millions, there are a million
more women than men. In Japan, on
the other hand, with a population of
thirty-seven millions and a civilization
far older than that of England, there
are half a million more men than wo-
men. Why is it? War makes the
difference. England is constantly at
war, while Japan is a nation of peace.

Fashion Notes,

FashIon Notes.
Bright scarlet lace bonnets are very
pretty.
Turkey red is much used for under
skirts.
White satin and silver is popular for
bridesmaids.
Colored laees, also gold laces, are
used in millinery.
Long oyerskirts appear on some of
the new dresses.
Long silk mitts are worn in every
conceivable color.
Glazed taffetas are trimmed with all
kinds OF embroidery.
Pompadour velvet figures are g
on some street dresses.
Vandyke red is much used for chill
dren's everyday costumes.
New summer bonnets are of delicate
tulle over thin lace frames.
Bronze spun-silk stockings are sold
to wear with bronze slippers.
China silks. with bouquets of earna-
tions as figures, are popular.
Plain Brussels net of exceedingly
fine quality and in colors is used for
wells.
The new bonnets are many of them
small in size and not especially new in
shape.
Waists of black jet diamond netting
are worn over jerseys or black silk
waists.
Combination suits are not SO popular
this season as those all made of one
material.
The velvet figures on black grena-
dine wraps are often outlined with
steel beads.
Combination dresses of plaid and
plain materials in the same tints are
fashionable.
Waisteoats Of iridescent beads, ar
ranged in Persian patterns, are the
newest additions to jerseys.
Gold lace, made Of fourteen-carat
gold. is used for making and trimming
Of bonnets. This is a Paris novelty.
Some of the new straw hats have
the crowns sewed in straight, erosswise
rows instead of the old-fashioned
spiral.
The bonnets which are yelled in illu-
sion, bonnet, flowers and all, is called a
Manon. It il a revival of an old
fashion.
Rhinestones are now set in tortoise
shell hairpins, and make lovely orna-
ments for the back hair. They are
also fashionable when set in silver.
The richest materials for evening
toilets are Venetian satins in change
able goods, figured with the tiny velvet
patterns, which + now considered
stylish.
The riding habit of 1884 is a shade
longer than a walking skirt, but onlya
shade, and it is very narrow. AL the
material saved By this seems to be in
the collar, which is very high.
IA neat device to make a skirt heavy
is the plan Of tucking the ionnces be-
fore box-plaiting them. This gives
more thickness Of the material and
consequently nine times the weight
really needed.
A handsome dress Of black Bengal
inc silk is draped with Chantilly lace
and finished with fat side ~draperies OF
black net jetted with pendant spikes.
The long train Of the dress is stylishly
square at nj corner and round at the
other. Rich trimmings Of Chantiuy
complete the toilet.

A medical exchange, in reviewing a
treatise on Bright's disease of the kid
neys, remarks that this disease seems to
be gaining ground in this country proba-
blv because of the use of SO much adul-
terated liquors. That is where folks
make a mistake. Years ago we heard
Prof. Chandler remark that he had exam
amined ''rot-gut' from fifty Of the lowest
dens of New York, and the worst thing
he found in them simply was-alcohol
itself; not that there is no adulteration,
but that alcohol itself is worse than the
adulterants.-Dr. F1ot's Magazine.

There is Nothing in 1t and no Indians are

KANSAS CIrr, No, July S.-A dispatch
from LesVenWor.h states that no news oi
an outbreak among the Cheyannes has been
received at Fert Leayenworth. In order to
relieve the settlers on the frontier four
troops of cavalry were ordered to Kiows,
near the southern border of Kansas
to do scouting duty and afford pro-
lection against any Cherokee invasion.
Topeka, rs, July S.-The following dis.
patch was received to-day by the Governor
from II. R. Nickerson, Division Superin-
.tendent of the ToIeka and Santa Fe rail-
road. 1t was rent to Mr.. Nickerson by the
agent st Kiugmsn:
NEWTON, July 8, 1885.
The agent at Kingman sends the follow
ing dispatch: The Indian scarce assumed
gigantic proportions here yesterday and
last night hundreds of families hoeked into
town from points as far west at 40 miles for
protection. Several scouting parties have
been out as far as 80 miles and the further
out they 90 the farther off the Indians are.
There is not trace of an Indian or evidence
of their having been nearer Kingman
county than the territory line and no
damage was done there. There is gener-
al scare, but its origin cannot be located. A
party named Jones was down to the Terri
tory line and heard the Indians were on the
move and on his way back to Pratt county
he met q ueighbor named Smith who told
him tie Indians were coming. Smith saw
Brown and Brown saw his friend and thus
the story grew and increased. The settlers
have ali started back for their homes.
