PeRns OF A RED NEcKTiE.
BABY In a Car Grew Restless and Cross
and Made a Grab For 1t.

The perlls of a man with a red necktie
are many and unexpected Quite iDno-
cent Of these a gentleman boarded the
down town Il" train at Eighty first street
one day last week, took cross seat and
began running over the stock reports in
his favorite newspaper He wore the love
LEST red tie you ever saw and had it spiked
down with diamond pin. Between him
and the window sat young mother with
a very young baby, and just opposite was
her feminine friend, the pair monopoliz-
ing the windows, as women Will some
times do. The baby grew weary Of trying
to follow flying objects outside and grew
restless and cross at the same time. FL
nally it saw the red necktie and made a
grab for it, You know how very young
babies can jump. Well, this one not only
grabbed for the red necktie, but it got it
the first pop.
The gentleman with the attractive neck
wear was somewhat startled at this on
elaught, but when he realized what it was
and heard the young mother abject apollo
gies he smiled sickly smile and resumed
his reading.
But the attempt to draw the child's at
tention to the other things was a dismal
failure. He saw only that red tie, and,
like young bull in a cornfeld, he wanted
TO go for it. In the meantime the other
passengers were indulging in tittering
comments, and the man with the red tie
soon got face up to match.
At last the baby broke into a shrill
scream and clutched wildly at the red
necktie The mother tried her best to
soothe her infant, but without success. At
Twenty-third street she turned abruptly
TO the gentleman with the red necktie,
and said, with considerable acerbity:
Il do wish you'd get of, sirl You'll
have to get off or give him that thing. /
can't do anything with him"
The gentleman with the red necktie was
too much astounded at this logic to say a
word. He just hoped right up and ran

DOCTORS DISAGREE.
Rarlsn's Decision Puts New Face on the
Strike Matter

CHICAGO, Oct. lin the United States
court of appeals today, Judge Harlan of
the United States Supreme court handled
the famous strike injunction OF Judge
jenkins rather severely. Judge Harlan
held that a body Of men had the right to
quit irrespective of any discomfort which
might result. They had. however, no
right to conspire to do damage or TO EN-
Ddrrass. He did not agree with Jenkins
famous definition of strike. namely.
that 1t WAS necessarily illegal" Judge
Harlan held that there was such a thing
as legal strike. Judge jenkins injunc-
ton was modified.
That part of Jenkins injunction which
restrained the employees Of ihe road from
striking, the court of appeals declares, was
"A violation of the rights of employees, who
could not legally be restrained from lesv-
ing the employ of the receivers and the
company when they saw fit to do so,
whether they quit in a body or in
dividually. Tia, part OF the injunction
which restrained employees from entering
into combination or Conspiracy u quit
with the Intention OF Gripping property
and preventing the operation of tue road.
Is sustained. On the whole, the decision
i a clear recognition OF the right OF en-
ployes TO strike. The decision ia part re-
verses the famous auti-strike order OF
Judge jenkins and in part sUstains IT,

Their Choice.

People who find it tiresome to read q
book more than once will scarcely credit
the story which is told of one of the Scilly
isles. The entire library of this little is-
land consisted, a century or more ago, Of
a single copy of the History Of DR.. Faus-
tus.'
As most of the inhabitants were able 10
read-provided words were not too difficult
the conjurers story had been handed
from house TO house, until from perpetual
thumbing very little of his entertainments
or his catastrophe was left legible
When this alarming state Of things be-
came evident. "a meeting of the principal
inhabitants WIS called TO discuss what
could be done 10 remedy il. for the people
must have something TO read.
y proposal was made and carried that
as soon as the season permitted any inter
course with Cornwall a supply of books
should be ordered. The question arose
what these books should be, but at last il
was settled amicably that an order should
be transmitted 10 Penzancc for another
copy of the = History of DIR. Faustus." And
then the meeting joyously broke up

The matter of Jail breaking in Oklahoma
is becoming serious. They frequently
happen and while in many cases the Off
GERS are charged with carelessness IN
majority of the cases the weakness of the

matter of escaping become that only last
week Judge McAttee issued an order for
extra guards at the Kingfisher Jail. In

Scotch Hospitality, 1929.

We have an interesting account of hos
pitality in 1929, which gives good idea
of the manner in which country gentle
man of the period lived. Dinner and sup
per were brought in by the servants with
their hats on, custom which is corrobo-
rated by Fynes Moryson, who, writing in
1898, says that, being at a knights house
who had many servants to attend him,
they brought in the meat with their heads
covered with blue caps. After washing
their hands in a basin, they sat down TO
dinner, and Sir James Pringle said grace
The viands seemed to have been plentiful
and excellent, big pottage, long kale,
bowe or white kale which is cabbage,
'breoh sopps, powdered beef, roast and
boiled mutton, a venison pie in form of an
egg, goose" Then they had cheese, cut
and uncut, and apples. But the close Of
the feast was the most curious thing about
it.
The tablecloth was removed and on it
was put towel the whole breadth of the
table, and half the length of it, a basin
and ever to wash, then a green carpet laid
on, then one cup of beer set on the carpet.
then a little long lawn serviter, plated
over the corner of the table, and glass OF
hot water set down also on the table, then
be there three boys to say grace, the first,
the Thanksgiving; the second, the Pater-
noster; the third, a prayer for blessing
to Gods church. The goodman of the
house, his parents kinsfolk, and the whole
company they then do drink hot waters,
so at supper, then to bed, the collation.
