At various times Mr.. Bouehard has re-

spinners or is In keeuing With the amount
which manufacturers can afford to pay.
The spinners aud weavers figure the
matter in this way: "A mau who before "a
10 per cent reduction. received dollar
day, receives afterward 30 cents per day.
III 1t is agreed to advance wages 10 per
cent, the manufacturers post notices
saving "Ou and after date wages will be
increased in this mill 10 per cent" When
pay day comes the man who was making
90 cents day finds that although his
wages have been increased 90 per cent?
the amount they were reduced, 40 per
cent?. his envelope contains only 80 cents.
Here is the arithmetic In 1t: Ten per
cent of 81 is 10 cents. substracted from
100 cents leaves 30 cents. That's n reduc-
tion. Ten per cent of 80 cents is nine
cents, added to 30 cents makes W cents.
That's an increase.
