through their own or somebody's else care
lessness-an eye gone, finger or two miss
ing, or Scared face. The young surgeons
in the city hospitals are frequently called
upon to attend such cases.
The man who fills bottle coYks il and
passes il along to "wirer,n who sits close be-
side HIM. 1t is the wirer's duty 70 draw a
wire over the cork and fasten it securely
around the neck of the bottle with pair OF
pincbers. This also, is a work Requiring
nimble fingers and some skill. 1t is a pain
ful process for new hand 70 learn to wire.
The thin wire lacerates the flesh badly, and
it is a common thing to see a lads hands
running with blood after days brisk work.
After few weeks at the business,
however, the fingers get callous.
Just as oakum pickers' I'm
gers do, and the wirers get along very CON-
fortably. When the wirers are through with
the bottles they are stacked in crates again
and carried away for another washing A
few pals of water are thrown over them and
they are left to dry before going to the label
ers. After labelling and polishing they are
put away in cases ready to be sent in
delivery wagons as fast as ordered. The
process of filling siphons and patent
bottles of numerous make is much SIM
pier, more rapidly done, and with less risk.
But they are not suited to all branches of
the trade.
A soda water manufacturer said that it was
unques ionably true that the majority of
the hands taken on for the sumner trade
were men in the habit of getting drunk.
But il was in a degree excnsable, ne said,
by the extremely hard labor required
of them in the busy season. In
a rush such as frequently occurs
during the extremely hot weather in July
and August the men were compelled to work
overtime willy nilly, often fifteen and eight
cen hous each day. Sometimes manufact-
urer finds himself in sore straits during
rush by whole squad of his hands going off
on drunk for day or two without giving
a word of warning. They have no fear OF
not being taken on again when they report
for duty, particularly if expert workmen.
Quick men are scarce about that
time, and the chances are that an
cisely the same thing sooner or
later. But sober and steady men are marked
and they will get what work there is going
during the winter months, though usually at
reduced wages
manufacturer said that despite the great
competition in the business profits would be
very fair il not for the loss of bottles.
That is the great drawback Of the bottling
trade A man might as well go oct of the
business as to attempt TO charge for the bot
ties. In many cases arrangements are made
with the dealers to get them back. The aver
age loss on bottles is estimated at 20 per
cent This is in measureequalized by soda
water sold in bulk for the fountain trade.

the Reward of Honesty.

The other day a very dignified man hailed
a Chicago news-boy, at the same time slip
ping coin into the hand of the urchin,
who, in turn, dextrously deposited il be-
tween his teeth. Delivering the wrinkled
paper, the boy sent dirty hand into his
trousers pocket and produced four pennies
and a nickel, which he emptied into the ex-
tended palm Of the dignified purchaser.
You should be more careful. sir" said
the rotund gentleman, glancing at the
change, and then handing it back to the
youngster. 81 gave you three-cent piece,
not q dime"
Not a muscle of the boys face moved.
The same dirty little hand went up to his
mouth and returned with the three-cent
piece. Quick as fash the coin had again
changed owners.
What's this for?' gasped the dignifed
official.
Keep yer money" replied the boy, with
wave of the dirty hand; Il likes ter reward
honesty"
The dignified gentleman blushed to the
roots of his hair. and stood for moment
gazing at the back OF the self-posessed ur-
chin, who had turned on his heel and saun-
tered away.

There is nothing in life one-half so sweet

restless and dissatisfied. but when it lights
on God it has found its peace and the vision
of its Joy. God is the home both Of the
mind and heart; and when His will has of a
truth in act well in desire become the
home of the will, then it is heaven al
