And if some of our millionaires who

hunger to plenty-from despair to hope.

The trustees of the Green Lawn GENE
terry, in Columbus, o., refused to allow
the unwilling of the soldiers monument
on July 8 because hat date fell on Sun
day. The Post, of Columbus, interviewed
a number Of the old soldier workmen on
the subject, and then printed the follow
ing pointed paragraph:
As is well known. his day was selected be-
cause OF the fact that the vast majority Of the
old soldiers and their sons and daughters are
workingmen and women. the most of whom

cannot afford. neither will their employers will

tors OF the Wells post, who nave grown rich by
prison contract labor, by usury and by the ne
farious contract system generally, and by an
ukase that would put to shame the czar of
Russia they deny the old comrades, brothers,
sons, daughters and other relatives Of those
who defended their country ia its hour of
need the privilege of witnessing the unwilling
OF n monument to their memory on the only
day possible for them to be present

demnation OF all patriotic, generous and Chris

Mrs. Alexander Bremen, one of the
factory inspectors OF this city, afirms
that children as young ms eight years
are employed in mercantile houses from
ten to twelve hours "A day at wages often
as low as n dollar per week, and sci
dom above two dollars per week. She
believes that, all things considered, the
work OF these children is as hard as that
of many employed in the factories, for
sixty hours a week is the maximum per
mitted for the employment of children
in factories, and the work of the in
spectors insures some attention to sani-
tation. Mrs. Bremen thinks the worst
feature in the case of young children
employed in mercantile houses lies in
their lack of opportunity for education
and the impossibility of their knowing
aught of home life. 1t is not unusual
for children thus employed to pass II
whole week without a sight of their
parents. New York Recorder.

There is a big, picturesque policeman
on the Broadway squad who is noted
among the habitues of the Rialto for his
flowing blond mustache, who turns an
occasional dollar as an artists model.
Having posed during his watch on deck
for the benefit of the common people in
the flesh. he is transferred to imperisha-
BILE canvas to gladden. the artistic eye of
generations yet to come. He has the
trunk and arms of a giant. In the opin-
ion of a distinguished artist, this police
man is the best specimen Of massive
physical perfection he ever saw. OF
course, the lady artists have all had a
hack ut him with pencil and brush, for
which he invariably gets one dollar a sit
ting, No wonder he carries the air of q
man thoroughly satisfied with himself.

A foreign textile journal records the
invention of a new kind of Topped fabric
which has a novel and beautiful effect,
with a durability never before attained.
The popularity about it is that worsted
is used for the thread forming the figure
of the design and alpaca or mohair for
the threads forming the ground of the
design. The contrast between the lus-
trous and beautiful threads of the mo-
