CHICAGO Post once Clerks join a. E. Of L.

Chicago, Oct. 29.-Post office clerks
of Chicago yesterday entered the

clerks have affiliated themselves with
the American Federation of Labor

known as '"Fhe Chicago Post Office
Clerks union It y claimed that
practically all the 1,4OO post office
employees in Chicago are included in
the movement. Foremost among the
objects for which the new union is
to strive will be the adoption of the
eight-hour work day for letter car
riers. Another object to be given
almost equal prominence will be the
agitation in favor of federal 1egisla-
ton that will fix absolutely the rate
of wages for letter carriers and other
post office employees, taking that mat
ter completely out of the hands of
the promotion boards and other
similar agencies.

Blank Wills.

Among the many things which the
British government provides for it's
soldiers areS blank forms for a will.
According to Harper's Weekly, "the
war office supplies every soldier that
goes to the front with three blank
forms Of wills-the first for the man
who wishes to leave all his property
to one person, the second for those
who wish to bequeath legacies to sew
eral persons and the third for use of
married soldiers desiring to leave prop
erty to their wives and children.
'"The British soldier. like most other
people, usually neglects to make his
will until the very last moment and
frequently waits until wounded or dy-
ing upon the field. 1t Is said that for
merly the men would scribble their
will in a few words on some stray bit
Of paper or on the inside Of a helmet,
the lid Of a cartridge box or perhaps
on a stone lying near BY"
The idea is a good one. and the Phil
adelphia Medical Journal suggests that
"f hospitals and emergency physi-
clans as well as soldiers were provid-
ed with such blanks they might prove
Of great convenience in many cases Of
emergency and severe illness. and legal
complications might many times be
avoided by their use."

A Blessing In Disguise.

1t almost seems that the invasion OF
the state of Massachusetts by the
gypsy moth some years ago has proved
to be a real blessing rather than a
curse. In waging a vehement warfare
against this destroyer Of the trees the
whole subject Of arboriculture has
been brought prominently into public
mind and nothing more was necessary
to awaken a realizing sense Of the
beauty and value of trees, and the com.
bat against one of their enemies has
resulted in victories over many others
In the aggregate much more dangerous
be fanciful or otherwise the fact re-
mains that all over Massachusetts,
trees are getting a more thoughtful
and intelligent care than they received
before the moths began their ravages.
and the expenditure of both money and
energy in this direction Is steadily
increasing. In 1896 the Massachusetts
legislature passed a law permitting
any town that chose to do so to elect
paid tree warden, whose duty it
should be to see that such trees as his
town possessed were protected and
such additions to their number made as
were practicable and desirable. The
law in its permissive form worked so
well that in 1899 1t was made manda.
tory, and In this shape 1t goes into
effect at the approaching spring elec-
tions. The Massachusetts, Forestry as
sociation has just issued circular let
ter calling attention to the provisions
of the law and appealing for the selec-
ton Of competent men to ill the posi-
ton Of warden. 1t Is not necessary,
the circular says, that these officers
should be trained and scientific arbori-
culturists. Where such persons can be
secured-and paid-of course 1t Is well
to get them. but good Intentions. help
ed out by ordinary intelligence. will
accomplish wonders, and technical
knowledge is soon added to them as
the warden goes about doing his benefi-
cent work. The legislatures of other
states might wisely follow the example
Of the Bay State In this respect.

Hemax ks on the SILK Hat.

In an editorial in the Philadelphia
Saturday Evening Post Hayden Car
ruth says that the silk hat is getting
out Of date. He says that the burden
Of living up to silk hat is greater
than the average man can bear; that
to live consistently up to it a man must
spend at least $1,000 a year. Many
men have tried it, only to fail and die
bankrupt. The silk hat, in Mr.. Car
ruth's opinion, ought not to stand upon
the order of its going, but go at once!
He doesn't know perhaps that it is still
very popular here in Georgia. Recent

HypnUtAm and Warfare.

When Mesmer made the somewhat
alarming discovery that by a few
waves Of ones hand one could control
the mental and plysical being of an
other, SO that all the actions of that
other would be at the beck and nod of
the master mind, he could have had no
idea to how great an extent his dis
covery would be developed. Hypno-
tism, the foster child Of mesmerism, Is
undoubtedly one Of the greatest mar.
vels Of the century. Indeed, If one
can believe all that one reads, hypno-
tism Is the universal panacea, the long
looked for restorer Of the moral ,equi-
Hbrium of the world. We learn on emf
nent authority that by means of hypno-
tism criminals can be cured Of their
sinful tendencies. inordinate cravings
for drugs can be eradicated and pain
and misery banished from mankind.
