ORGANIZED FOR WORK.
Minutes of the Initial Meeting of the Cam
paign Properties Union.

paign Properties Union.
The campaign properties held
meeting a few days ago and organized
a union.
Rallying Cry was made chairman,
and in his opening speech said:
Gentlemen, it is high time we did
something for our own protection. We
are trampled upon! Our rights are
ignored! We are overworked! We are
underpaid. We must form union for
self-protection. The meeting is now
ready for motions.
q move," said Forthwith Pride,
rising and addressing the chair, "that
committee of three be appointed to
consider what had better be done"
The motion was seconded by View
with Alarm and carried unanimously.
As such committee the chairman ap-
pointed Pointwith Pride, Viewwith
Alarm, and Spontaneous Enthusiasm.
On motion of Slogan, seconded by
Smokeof Battle, the meeting took re-
cess of two hours to permit the COM
mittee to deliberate.
On reassembling the committee pre-
sented the following preamble and res
olution, and moved their adoption:
WHEREAS, The Presidential cam
paign is at hand-the period during
which.no mercy is shown us-there-
fore, be it
ReSoired, That we win work no
more than eight hours day; that we
demand increase in salary of one hum
dred per cent; that in the event of re-
fusal we decline to permit the use of
our names in the campaign"
This report was signed by all the
members of the committee, and its
adoption was seconded by Favorite Son,
who made brief but effective speech
in its favor.
UnfIilfilled Pledges said he was of the
opinion that eight hours a day was too
short in the heat of the campaign, and
moved to amend by making it ten
hours, the other two hours being added
to permit attendance upon public meet
ings at night
The amendment was seconded by
Steer Clear, and was supported by
short speeches from Spellbound and
Ovation, while Scylls and Charybdis
spoke against il.
The amendment was then voted upon

How a Clever Woman Makes Detective
Camera Earn Her Living.
An ingenious girl has hit upon IN in
genlous method of seii-support. Some
time ago she was bitten by the anna
teur Photographic mania and became
an adept at catching picturesque views.
With one of those clever little detective
cameras she amused herself whenever
her fancy led her about the city pick
ing up here an old apple woman, with
skirts fluttering and cape bonnet blown
back by an unkindly breeze, there a
ragged news-girl with her bundles of
papers, yon a group of babies tumbling
on the grass in the park and some
where else an Italian with huge bag
of stale crusts balanced on b--chead,
full of artistic possibilities. The girl
had something of an artists temper
ament, and though she could neither
paint nor draw, she had an eye for the
essential features of a picture and for
what would or would not compose well.
Many of her photographs were really
pictures, and being caught instantane-
ously preserved all the spirit, action
and freshness of life. An artist friend
saw them one day, and to her surprise
offered to buy half dozen of the best
for suggestions for studio work. Two
or three days dwelling upon the idea
thus given her bore fruit. She was in
want of money and resolved to turn
what had been play into work. She
and her camera are out every sunny
day, from ten o'clock until three nova
days, and an hour in the dark room
of an evening brings out some of the
characteristic scenes of city life trans
ferred to her negatives and ready to be
transformed into cash. Her work has
quite a vogue among the studios, and
clever suggestions are often taken from
it. She finds her best market for figure
pieces. An attitude, smile, an ex-
preston often serves as a revelation of
some queer phase of humanity and sup
plies the missing somewhat that some
body wanted to incorporate into a
picture. Sometimes an artist gives her

A QUEER LITTLE CRADLE.
What Robbie Found, and the Beautiful
Creature That Came From 1t.

What Robbie Found and the Beautiful
Creature That Came From 1t.
Robbie found some queer little
things, that looked like dry leaves
rolled up.
81 wonder what they arep" he said.
MAY be they're fairies cradles. ]
wish | could see a fairy come out"
Mamma had told him fairy-story
the night before. He took them into
the house to show to her; but she was
out. SO he put them in little paste
board box, which he set on the closet
shelf in her room. He meant to tell
her, but forgot all about it.
The queer little rolls stayed there for
two or three months, till the pleasant
fall weather was over, and winter had
come. But mammals room was al
ways warm. If fairy-babies had been
there they would have been very snug
and comfortable.
No one noticed the little box. One
evening, when Robbie was fast asleep,
his mother sat reading rather late in
her room. The house was very quiet.
After awhile she heard queer noise
tap, tap, as if some body knocked.
But the taps were very light, and she
could not think what made them. She
looked about the room and opened the
closet. She found the tapping was in
side the little box.
What can it bePn she thought. She
lifted the cover, which was not very
tight; and out flew something as beau
tiful and bright as a fairy. 1t was a
large butterfly, blue and gold and black
and crimson; one of the prettiest she
had ever seen. 1t was very strange to
see live butterfly in winter. What
Robbie found was a chrysalis.
The caterpillar spins threads around
itself, and makes cradle or nest. In
this it sleeps all winter, and in the
spring is changed into butterfly. But
the warmth of the room had made this
one come out much sooner.
Robbie's mamma was puzzled. She
did not like to let the pretty creature
starve; and there were no gardens in
winter for him to fly into, and get his
breakfast. But her bay-window was
full of house-plants. She caught the
butterfly in glass jelly-dish, and car
ried him to the flowers. So he was
very happy as long as he lived.
This strange event really happened.

not there. They fetched light, and
looked about Surely it was not pos
sible to loose baby; but it seemed so,
for this baby could not be found.
Matte began to cry, and Christopher
fetched his father and mother, and told
them the trouble.
The father stared. you've lost the
babyr' he said; and he really seemed
to think that Christopher must be jok-
ing. But when he realized the truth he
quickly fetched lanterns, and set out
with Christopher and his mother to
hunt for the baby. Matte was left be-
hind. He was too tired to set out
again, but he could not rest indoors, so
he stood in the dark, sobbing and cry
ing at the gate. He was all alone, but
he was not frightened for himself, only
for the baby.
Time passed very slowly. 1t seemed
to Matte as if he had been waiting
five hours, when he really had not
been more than fifteen minutes.
All at once he heard some one, not a
very great distance from him, say:
"Gee-up, gee-up." Matte started; it
sounded like the babys voice. Was
she coming homep He opened the
gate and walked slowly across the
road. He could see nothing, but again
came the voice: "Gee-up, Kistopher."
Now Matte was sure it was the
baby.
Forgetting the darkness he walked
along the road in the direction from
which the voice came, and held out
both hands, but he could feel moth
ing
just as he was thinking OF going
back again he heard the voice third
time, and now it sounded quite near.
Then he remembered the ditch by
the side of the road, and, feeling his
way, he crawled on his hands and
knees to it, and very nearly rolled on
to-what do you think?-why, the
baby!
Matte shouted for joy, and his
shouts were answered by his father
and mother, who were returning for
more help.
You may be sure they very soon
picked both Matte and the baby out of
the ditch.
How did the baby get therep 1twas
easy to guess. She must have fallen
asleep, rolled off the bough, and then
rolled into the ditch.
The wonderful part of it was that the
fall did not wake her; but then the
ditch was not at all deep, and, as Chris
topher said: at took a good deal to
wake that baby, once she was off to
Sleep
She wasn't q bit hurt, but she was
about the blackest, dirtiest baby you
| ever saw. But if you think that
; stopped them from nearly eating her up
, with kisses, you but of course you
won't think so, for we settled at first
that you had a baby at home, and you
: will know what you would have done
, yourself under the same circumstances.

But the happiness of duty
This is Life's lesson, children dear,
They are blcst who learn it early.
For il brighteHs the darkest day with cheer,
Though Fortunes face be surly.
There's certain narrow, quiet path
OF daily thinking and living.

OF loving and forgving-

or gentle speech and action,
or choosing the right and leaving tie wrong
With q sunny satisfaction;
And if we never leave this path
For the thing the world calls pleasure,
There Will come to meet us heavenly joy
Beyond all power TO measure.
For on this narrow, quiet way,
Gods angels move for ever,
Waiting to crown with peace divine

The glow of the sweetest beauty.
