Union Labels to Be Used.

At the regular meeting of the Central Labor union last evening the report of the committee from the Bakers and Confectiouers' union was discussed al length. The fact that some of the bosses refuse to become union shops brought out the following preamble and resolu tion:
 "Whereas, We. the representatives oi the several labor organizations of Wa terbury and vicinity are banded to- gether as a Central Labor union, not tC antagonize any legitimate enterprise but to try in every honorable way tC better our condition and the condition of every son of honorable toil, viz: Nor ally, socially and financially, and, Whereas, We have received and carefully considered a proposition of the Bakers and ConfectiOneTs' local union No l55. and we believe to the best oi our opinion that said Bakers and Con fectioners' union has done everything 1T it's individual power to organize their re spective crafts, but has been foiled by bosses putting obstacles in the way o their employees becoming members of , | labor organization, whose object is a. above stated. therefore, be it
 Resolved, that we, the members anC delegates of the Central Labor union
 receivs and endorse the action of th Bakers and COnfectioners' union in issu ing union labels; and we further pledG ourselves that we will exert every en | deavor to impress on the members O
 our respective unions not to patroniz
 any other but places having uniol
 made bread; and we would most re spectfully ask all in sympathy with or | ganized labor to do likewise.

THE HEART OF CHRISTMAS.

How to Make the Holiday just What 1t
Ought to Be.
Merry Christmas, friend! | do not
mean especially that you shall have a
merry Christmas as much as that you
shall make it merry, by giving some
one who is out of the sunshine and il
the shadow a generous slice of Christ
mas cheer. Then your food will have
something in its flavor it never had be-
fOre-a rich, full cup of sunshine to
warm the cookies of your heart.
To begin with, you must believe in
the Christmas Child that founded
Christmas. If you find this hard to do
make believe as hard as you ever can
and a special dispensatiOn of belief
will be measured out to you. And you
must believe in Santa Claus, reindeer,
rOOf-tree, chimney and all. If you have
brought up your children on the prac-
teal plan and told the poor things
that they needn't hang their stockings
in the chimney corner, because there
won't be any Santa Claus, | am sorry
for you. Just throw away tl~?+ potato

rheumatism-it is a much greater anG
more foolish superstition than Santa
which will write for the sake of illus
tration:
Farmer Blank didn't believe in
Christmas nonsense in his house
wasn't going to let his boys spend a
cent for any such foolishness, not he!
But he did love those dear, chubby
little twins that made the sunshine of
his house, only he loved his own big
oted opinions more.
He had gone to the city a few nights
before Christmas and his wife had
asked him to buy some toys for the
twins, and few picture books and
some oranges and candy to put in their
stockings. But when he turned his
horses heads homeward that night he
had none of those things-he wasn't
going to spoil his boys.
1t was not late. but dark when Farmer
Blank drove into his yard and saw a
bright light in the barn. Tim, the
hired man, thought Mr.. Blank.
But no. He looked through the win
dow and this is what he saw:
One of the twins was representing
the babe in the manager He was living
in the hay, dressed in white night
gown. his lovely eyes closed, his
dear little hands clasped, and candles
burning beside him, their flame within
easy reach of the tons of hay that
oppressed down from above.
The other twin was praying:
.'Please, God, make papa believe in
Santa Claus, SO he will come here
Christmas like he does at other little
boys houses-Amen."
The twins We're awfully frightened
when their father dashed into the
barn, caught them up in his arms and
carried them straight into the house
before he returned to put out those in
fendiary candles.
The next day Farmer Blank went to
own again, and he must have seen
santa Claus and made it all right with
him, for the stockings were filled to
verfowing on Christmas morning.
And the twins were not happier than
he big foolish man who followed them
bout with tears in his eyes, and
banked God for the children, without
hom it would have been a sorry
pristmas- Free Press.
