The Odor of Feathers.

Properly cured feathers have no
odor. When there is a close odor to a
feather pillow it tells unerringly one
story. The feathers have not been
properly cured and have been spoiled
in the curing. There is no remedy for
such feathers. The small amount of
animal matter located in the quiz OF
the feather instead of being dsstTeyed
in the curing has been allowed to be-
come decayed, and, like any decayed
animal matter, it leaves lasting faint
behind. The best feathers may by ac-
cident acquire this faint in curing
The best goose feathers have so small
a quill that they are not as liable to
trouble as hens feathers that have a
heavy quill. 1t always pays to buy the
best goose feathers because they are
so much lighter, bulk for bulk, thar
cheap feathers, and the lightest cost
very little more than the heaviest
though the price by the pound is con
siderably more. 1t is generally the
cheap feathers with coarse quilts thaf
are odorous. The odor will last as long
as the feathers.-N. Y. Tribune,

1t is a fact, much to be regretted,
that a very slight destruction of prop
erty secures more publicity than
very great injury to the interests OF
wage-workers. The smashing of
$4,000 street car receives more prom
inence than reduction in wages which
means $4,000 year to the strikers
The latter are quick to perceive this,
and it helps considerably to embitter
them against their employers.
Lack of a little common courtesy on
the part Of the corporation manager
is a very frequent means of eNasperat-
ing the unionists TO the point of law
breaking. When their representatives
are refused a hearing, when, as often
happens, they are sworn at and or
dered out of the company'S office
feeling of bitter resentment is created
in the minds of the workers which
bears fruit not infrequently in the de-
struction of life and property.
But when the employer is willing to
confer with the secretary of the trade
union, and a strike takes place without
any previous i'll feeling, there Is rarely
any violence or hoodlumism, The feel
ing Of bitter ill-wtll from which
all rioting springs, is caused not
SO much by the denial of the union
demands as by the rude and contemp-
tuous manner in which the denial is
made. "lf they don't want us to blte'

The neighborhood of KapoIya, in
Hungary, has recently been infested
with marauding bands of gypsies. As
preventive measure and as a warm
ing to the others the gendarmes cap
tured one of the gangs, and only re-
leased them after cutting short the
hair of the principal members. This is
considered by the gypsies to be the
most awful humiliation, and the gang
determined to have its revenge. One
dark night they sueaked back to the
village and poisoned the wells. Next
day 10 persons died and very great
number were taken seriously i'll. Sew
eral gypsies have been arrested, and a
large quantity of strychnine was found
on their persons.-Nienna Cor. London
