lN Oft, Of the gre great :, anthracite dnnr cit,

a class apart from the ordinary human
beings. writes Paul Latzke, in the De
troit Free Press. The newspaper ac
counts have paved the way for this
and the appearance Of the men anc
boys i'm their working outfit clinches
the impression. No other body OF
iaborers in the world carry such
strong external evidences of their vo
cation. From the top Of their heads,
where their mining lamps fare from
the peaks OF their queer shaped caps.
TO their feet, shod with great, grimy.
thick -soled, clamping boots, the mine
workers bear the obtrusiYe stamp OF
their trade. They look uncanny, fierce.
Take the most mild hammered and in

hammer for eight or ten hours under

woman from the outside world would
run from such man at the least
demonstration. Should she unexpect.
edly meet him at dark on a lonely road,

would probably have an attack OF
hysteria.

coal dust, they are almost less than

without once coming up, they have
gone instantly blind, on being exposed
TO the daylight. In n measure IL Is so
with the men and boys who spend
their working hours day after day
underground. The daylight gives
them an uncomfortable sensation, and
they acquire the habit OF scrcwlng up
their eyes that finally affects all the
muscles Of the face.
II is owing TO these strongly marked
peculiarities that the mine workers
are put down at first by newspaper
correspondents and writers in the dis.
trict as something apart. Even the
trained observer requires some time
to accustom himself to their striking
appearance and to realize that after
all these men are like other men, and
that their women, though they have
absorbed many Of the characteristics
of the men. are like other women. II

Hints For Home sewing.

The sewing machine should be got
IN readiness at least "A day before any
prOtracted work is undertaken, in or
der that the oil may penetrate about
every intrcatcly placed screw. Several
needles of a proper size to take" the
fabric should be provided in advance,
in order that an accidental delay
through breakage may be precluded.
Hand or machine needles should be
carefully selected with view 10 Sc
curing implements that will make no
unnecessarily large punctures in silk
or cloth. \ small emery cushion
should be kept at hand, that the points
of needles may be sharpened and
cleaned by running through it from
time TO time. Home dressmaking
never should be begun until each
needed article required for the new
gowns has been purchased and is held
i'm readiness Innings. whaleboneS,
