l From 1s8I to 1887 There ea,5IS Strikes Causinga loss In Wages or s5s, 0Oo.o0o. ' In looking back through the history of la bor strikes it will be found that they are not new, neither are labol riots matters of our own day merely.
 As early as 1736, the Spitafields weavers at London were so much en- ragged at the bringing of weayers from Ireland that they became riotous, and were fired on by the military, many people paving been killed.
 NAu.MAK FRS,
 In 1887 the nailmakers of Worcester struck against the iron merchants of Birmingham about the price of iron furnished by the latter. But this was yuarrel between the two classes ratli- or than between employees and employ. CTS. In l765 the Spitaiields weavers again became iiot0us, and many lives were lost. The introduction of ma chinery for working cotton into Eng land caused great dissatisfaction and rioting. Mills were burned aud ma chinery was destroyed. At Noting ham in lSl1 and 1872 these anti i-machin- cry riots were particularly violent and serious.
 STRIKES IN THE UNITED STATES.
 In the United States tho first strikes were by the journeymen bootmakers in Philadelphia in l79S and l799. The shoemakers of Philadelphia also struck for higher pay ill 1905. In 1909 the New York shoemakers struck and were ,,.,, ..l tcI in These last became violent and were all put in jail. The first printers strike against non-union men was at Albany in 1921. In 1881 the laborers on the | Providence (Old Colony) railroad de- | manded more wages, became violent and brought out the militia to keep order.
 COTTON MILL STRIKE.
 In 1885 there was cotton mill strike i at Patterson, N. J., resulting in a twenty-six weeks suspension of work. | In 1942, l845 and 1850, there were strikes in the Pittsburg iron. mills. In 1 1877 was the great railroad strike at | Pittsburg, where there were serious riots, and the troops were called out to suppress them. 1t was estimated that l the destruction of property amounted to 8 900, GOO. Since then labor has or ganized extensively, and strikes have | become numerous.
 THE LOSS IN WAGES. | From the government statistics 1t ap- pears that between l79l and 1887 there were 24,5lS strikes by workingmen with direct loss in wages of nearly | s52 GOO ,000, and enormous destruction of property and damage to employers. | in closure of their works and failure to complete contracts. The present cen tuy is memorable for labor strikes, Before it can close the record promises to be vastly more formidable.

The bang is one of the latest innova
tions among women and girls. 1t had
its origin in the reformatory for girls
on Blackwelps Island, New York. The
inmates were in the habit of getting
away, and it was difficult to recognize
them after changing their apparel.
1t was first suggested to crop them,
but this was considered too sweeping.
The bang was then adopted, and it
was perfect mark. For some reason
or other the style struck the popular
fancy, and in the course of a few
years after its adoption as a mark in
reformatory it became one of the
fads of fashion.

Our government pension lists car
ried the names of Revolutionary SOL
diers down to 1853 The last of their
widows only departed in 1887. This
is accounted for by the fact that some
of these old veterans were mere boys
when engaged in that conflict, and
were married several times, getting
quite young wives when they were
old. There is yet living quite a num-
Der of children of Revolutionary SOL
diers. Tt is calculated that the veter-
ans of our late civil war will not all
disappear before 1866.
Where shall we set the bed? Away
from the wall, and so arranged that
may go all around without moving it,
for health's sake and convenience in
making. Physicians tell us that it is
very unhealthy to sleep near the wall
on account of dampness for one thing;
and another thing more serious is that
ones breath is thrown back to be in
hailed again. An instance is related
where severe morning headache
was cured permanently by simply
moving the bed from near the wall
into the middle of the room.

Russia has arranged for the con-
struction Of twenty-five great war
vessels during the next four years, to
cost in the aggregate $50, 100000. The
proposed expenditure of this enor-
nous sum while SO many of the peo-
pie of Russia are starving or being
fed by charity is provoking much ad-
verse criticism. But the building of
these ships will give great many of
the people employment, and it may
be set down as general principle
that dollar earned is worth two re-
ceived in charity to be expended in
idleness, whether enforced or volun
tary. Russia will get the ships which
she greatly needs, and her people will
divide the millions of the cost among
them.

the feasibility of shipping it from

burned. There is some insurance,
but how much we have not learned.
