Loves Labor Lost by many a woman
who strives to please her household and
works herself to death in the effort. II the
house does not look as bright as a pin she
gets the blame-if things are upturned
while house cleaning goes on-why, blame
her again. One remedy is within her reach.
Ii she uses Sapolio everything viii look
clean, and the reign Of house-clesning dis
order will be quickly over.

Married life is made up of many trials
and troubles, not the least of which is how
to keep your house clean and neat sAPo-
LIo is a boon to woman. With it she can
clean her house in half the time and with
half the trouble. Time, trouble and money
can be saved by using SAPoLIo. Teach
your children how to use it, too. If you
don't you will neglect their education. If
you do. they will bless you when they be-
come wives for having taught them the use
OF SAPoLIo.

Abou Ben Kelly (may her tribe increase)
Was much disturbed one night and had no
peace,
For there upon the wall within her room.
Bright with the moonlight that dispelled the
gloom,

A man was scribblsng with a wand Of gold.
Now, Mrs. Kelly was a warrior bold,
And to the presence in the room she said:
"What writest thour' The scribbler raised his
head,
And with look that made Ben Kelly hot,
Answered: THE name of that which leaves no
spot"
"And what is that2" said Abou. mot so fast"
Replied the scrbbler. Kelly opened vast
Her mouth angelic; then in whisper said:
What is this marvel, quickf must to bed"
The scribbler wrote and vanished. The next
night
He came again with much awakening light.
And showed the names that nations long have
blessed
And 10! Sdpolio's name led all the rest

Which is why 1 remark,
The Carbon advocate. [volume] (Lehighton, Pa.) 1872-1924, 1890-09-06

The ticket nominated by the Democratic
party last Monday is quite creditable to the
Democracy of the county. II is headed
with S. S. Dreher. for Judge; lion. Allen
Craig, for Congress. and Hon. w. NJ. Rap
sher. for State Senator; f. p. Semmel. for
Register and Recorder; James r. Mul-
hearn, for treasurer; Henry Miller and
Daniel Cannon, for commissioners; Hugh
Ferry, for Assembly; G. W. Mortimer
and A. G. Peters, for County Auditors.
The offices are pretty fairly equallzed as
regards geographical location. Three go
to the upper end; Mauch Chunk gets two
and the lower end two. There are many
however who find objections to the geo.
graphical situation without giving the
status of affairs due consideration. For
instance the upper end only has but two
Democrats now filling positions Of public
place, VIZ; Domnick O'Donnel, county
commissioner, of Summit Hill. and w, w,
Buck, coroner, of Weatheily, while the
lower end has the sheriff, treasurer, asso.
ciate Judge, one commissioner, and the
jury commissioner. From this it can be
seen that no effort is made to particularly
centre the offices of the party to one sec
tion of the county more than another, ant
all this kicking and growing about The
geographical situation should be stopped
II is tiresome.

NOTES AND OPINIONS


Civilization, says an exchange, has made
marvellous strides. Ananias wouldn't haYe
been patch on the nineteenth century
campaign liars trousers.
The greatest politician raising section in
Carbon only got one man on the ticket at
the Democratic convention held at Mauch
Chunk yesterday and that was Hugh Ferry,
of Audenried. d.-Hazleton Sentinel.
According to judicial opinion rendered
by Judges Bucher, Mayer and Rockefeller
1t is Illegal for any individual or commit
tee to present to any voter receipt for
taxes, and where 1t is done the gift of the
receipt does not convey with it the right to
vote.
Another proof that cheap labor is dear
labor has been brought to light by the cen
sus investigation. 1t appears that the aver
age cost of producing a ton of iron is about
$l4 In the Northern foundries and about
$1075 in Southern foundnes. Higher
wages are paid in the Northern foundries,
bat the labor cost per ton of metal is 81. 40
in the North and 81 SO in the South. So
the "cheap labor is 20 cents ton dearer
than the more costly and efficient labor.
Here is another proof that efficient and
well paid labor is the cheapest. American
wages, measured by output, are not higher
than foreign wages. s.-Phia, Record

RAILROAD NOTES.


The lehigh Valley Railroad has at work
on its new line from Geneva to Buffalo, N.
Y, 5000 men, 300 teams, 8 locomotives,
2b0 cars, and steam shoyels.
An exchange says that a survey will soon
be made by the Lehigh Valley Railroad for
switchback from Penn Haven to Packers
Point and Glen Onoko.
The Lehlgh Valley Railroad Company
has issued circular refusing to carry any
high explosive with the exception of com.
mon black powder, saying that these ex-
plosiyes 'will not be received for shipment
under any circumstances whatever The
circular is likely TO cause trouble. Dealers
declare ii is arbitrary and unlawful. It
can demand to know what packages CON
tain, and may require precaution and charge
special rates, but it cannot, as a common
carrier, refuse transportation to such pack
ages.
Union meeting of the orderof Railway
Conductors will be held in Scranton, Sept,
IA. There will be representatives present
from all parts of the Union, including the
grand lodge officers.

STRIKES are not things that working
men should rush heedlessly into, for they
generally entail great deal Of suffering
to those who are connected with them.
They should never be used only when all
other means fail, but they are not the un-
mitigated evil that some would have us to
believe. They seldom occur. even though
they fail in their direct object or purpose,
but they accomplish some good. They
are the earnest protest of honest labor
against the oppression of capital, and teach
those who are lyrannically disposed that
there is a limit to their cruel selishness, a
boundary over which they cross at peril to
their ill-gotten wealth, and the experience
and knowledge thus gained will often tend
to deter them from encroaching too far on
the rights of labor. 1t is not their appre-
citation OF those rights that prevents them
from encroaching on them, but the fear OF
what may follow. But strikes are moi
always failures. OF late years they have
been otherwise, Notwithstanding the as
sertions made by prejudiced writers in the
interests of the employers.

The Albany Argus Of recent date says
that It is a mistake TO say that the Order
of Odd Fellows was instituted at Balti-
more In 1919: GA lodge was formed in

mainly of gentlemen Of the theatrical pro

until 1924, when it assumed the pre-
