line in Dayton, o., has been settled by
giving the drivers 81 per day of six

sbrewd Uncle stead's Poor Woman

From the Lewiston {Me.) Journal
"Uncle Stead" is what they called q
shrewd old gentleman who used to
live in Winthrop, a little way out OF
the village, near Readfield. One OF his
fellow-citizens was man named Love
10Y. Uncle Stead met Lovejoy in the
village one day, and he said to him:
"Lovejoy, there's poor woman lives
out on the edge of the town that
needs some provisions. I'm willing to
supply her, but I've sold my horse
and have no means OF getting the stuff
to her. Now, I'll buy her barrel OF
flour and a ham and some other sup
plies if you'll carry them out to her
with your team"
Lovejoy said certainly, he'd be very
glad to do it. Accordingly, Uncle
Stead bought barrel OF -four, ham,
a bucket OF sugar, etc, and, telling
Loveioy where the woman lived, sent
him off Oh the errand of charity with
the good things in his pung.
Loveioy easily found the house
where the woman lived. He unloaded
the goods, putting like grampus as
he rolled the barrel Of flour in, and
said to the woman: "Mr. Steadman
sent you the provisions. He's g
mighty kind-hearted man to send you
all these things"
"Well, Idon't know why he shouldn' t
send them to me-" exclaimed the
woman III surprised accents. Hes
my husband" 4"

To Share Profits With Workmen.

From the Boston Advertiser.
The New England Granite Works, of
Westerly, R. L., with the opening of the
current year began most important
experiment in profit sharing with their
workmen. The company is one COM
posed in the ordinary way OF share
holders with salaried officers to con-
duct their business. The employees
who are in future to share net profits
under quasi cooperative system are
common laborers earning from S1.70
to S1.S5 In the quarrles. They are
ignorant, hard working men, with no
economic theories beyond the belief
that every laborer is entitled to lit
tie more than capital ever is willing to
give him. The present not wholly
novel scheme has been introduced by
the president of the company, man
at once shrewd, enterprising and
humane. It is, in brief, to pay the
laborers their usual wages throughout
the year, to pay the shareholders the
legal rate of interest on their capital,
and then to call whatever earnings re-
main, after settling all other accounts,
"net profits" and divide them in
equal thirds between the laboIers, the
shareholders, and a permanent reserve
fund. The company estimates that
in good years the laborers who have
earned their S1.S5 day throughout
the twelve months will receive a divi-
dend of between $50 and $40. The
workmen themselves are not over
sanguine of any such pleasant result,
but are gratified to find that their
employers are willing to try to do them
q good turn.
