Samuel Gompers. president of the

Gompers said:

BEYOND REDEMPTION.
Bishops Daughter Who Adhered
Strictly to Her Fathers
Teachings.

One of the southern bishops enjoys
telling the following story on his
daughter, says the Detroit Free Press.
Strongly imbued with her fathers doc
trine she had grown up strict Episco-
palian and had never attended re-
vival or camp-meeting in her life, al
though, as her younger brother reie-
vanity remarked, 1.-THE woods are full
of them"
When she was about 16 she went to
visit an old friend of her mothers, in
New York, and her hostess, after much
persuasion, prevailed on her to go to
hear Tom Harrison, the famous boy
evangelist.
"But, Mrs. Burnett" she had finally
objected, suppose he should speak to
me. I'd be so frightened | shouldn't
know what to say"
"Why. Virginia her hostess had re-
piled, 1.-THE church will be so crowded
that nothingis more unlikely than that
he should single out either one of us"
But the girls fears were realized.
AS the great preacher left the pulpit
and passed down the aisle, exhorting
first this one, then that one, he paused
at the pew where the bishops daugh-
ter was seated.
my dear child" he said. earnestly,
"are you Christian"
"N-no, SIR" she replied. I'm an
Episcopalian."
With a twinkle in his eye the evan
gelist passed on without another word.

A HARD-woRK1NG PEOPLE.
The American WOrkman's Enthus..
asm for His Trade-Leisure Not q
Waste Of Time.

That Americans are a Woodworking
people is a fact which impresses all our
visitors. A correspondent of the
Philadelphia Times, who has been
reporting upon our competition
with England in works of me-
chanical engineering, reports his
surprise at the American workman's
attitude toward his work, his palpa bic
enjoyment of it. and his evident deter
mination to get the most out of the
tools he is using. An English iron
man once said to me: Il do not wonder
at your iron and steel establishments
getting ahead of ours, when l see your
workmen. after delivering load, run
ming back for another. / never saw an
the shop when his day ended" For this
the English economists are partly to
blame. They always have taught that
labor is a disagreeable necessity, to
which a man must be driven by some
sort of compulsion, and of which he
will do no more than he must. This
kind of teaching is apt to percolate
down to the laboring classes, and to
suggest methods of keeping down
work. such as the rule of the English
unions that bricklayer shall use but
one hand in his work.

lace, the design of which IS outlined
in gold thread. Down the front, on
both sides and extending around the
bottom of the skirt, are wide bands
of gold braid. The sleeves are of the

Every woman knows the value of

those covered with soft lace or more

white and white combined with gold,
blue or black all hold the popular

Few evening gowns are prettier
than those of printed mousseline de
sole. One of palest ivory, ornament
ed with tea roses, would be remark
ably soft and pretty trimmed either
with ruchings of glace silk or fine
white lace.
One of the new bathing costumes is
of white silk-finished brilliantine,
made with broad sash and open coli
lar Of the palest shell pink. The cap
to be worn with it is of the same
materials, lined with oiled silk, and
made with long point falling at the
side, after the style of those worn by
Neapo}itan fishermen.
Lace robes of every design and
workmanship worn over silk gowns
are remarkably popular with London
women. A new fad to make chiffon
or silk tea gown more effective is to
wear over il a lace coat which is
made either three-quarter length or
full length with train effect.
A useful addition to a woman's
wardrobe is yoke of point d'espri..
threaded through with velvet baby
ribbon, which will transform an even
ing gown into one suitable for less
ceremonious occasions.

of Machinists in times of strikes. Each
member of the union pays an assess

strikes approved by the grand lodge.

need of financial aid. Nonunion men

RECoGNIZED BY HER PICTURE,

The exceedingly handsome wife Of
a certain senator is going about these
days doing what only the hundredth
woman would ever think Of doing. She
is telling a story on herself, says the
Washington Post. Not very long ago
a woman of fashion gave very elhb-
crate luncheon, and the senator's wife
was present. AS she seated herself
and drew of her gloves she noticed
that beside her sat stout and elderly

a cut paper pattern, and just as obvi-
ously unused to the ways of polite So

of leisure for talking politics and whit

of leisure for talking politics and whit
Ting sticks, and not overload of exert
ing himself. Partly this was due to the
fact that work in the colonial times
and even later was very heavy and of
small result. In the absence Of mod
ern appliances labor produced very lit
tie and at a high cost of human exer-
ton. The immense toll which was re-
quired to reclaim the wilderness
seemed to make but little impression on
it, and the settler turned away with .
certain disheartenment after he had
got clearing made in which his fam
lily could turn round.
1t also must be remembered that the
standard of health in colonial, and
even later times, must have been very
low. Men worked under conditions
which exposed them to malaria, and
the remedies for it's depressing and
weakening influences were not SO &C
cessible as they now are. Through a
large part of our southwest the effects
of this lowering human energy are still
visible.
With each generation of recupera-
ton the effects Of labor became more
evident, and put heart into the work
ers. Especially as the country filed up
through immigration, and American
ingenuity was directed to relieving hu-
man muscle Of the toll that had been
exacted of it, work became more at
tractive, and at the same time much
better paid. The days ceased when
farm-boy had to work q month to pro-
cure the price of a coarse cotton shirt,
and prices fell and wages rose pari
passu. Fourier's problem, "How to
make labor attractive" was thus
solved without his drastic measures
for the reconstruction of society.
Something, perhaps much, was due
to the spirit in which the new immi
grants embraced their lot. They came
very commonly from countries in
which employment was scarce and ill
paid. Germany was not yet a manufac-
turing country; Ireland had ceased to
be under the industrial blight attend
ing the union Of 1901. To find steady
employment and to be well paid for
it were luxuries to which these new
corners were not accustomed. They
took it up with an enthusiasm which
was infectious, and which helped to
''set the pace" for the whole popula-
ton. Some indeed were lazy by long
disuse of their powers. l have known
one Irishman who went back to Ire
land because he was worked too hard
in America; but he was an exception.
At present our danger seems to be
overwork. In this stimulating eli
mate, and with such endless openings
for remunerative toll, it is necessary
at times to put on the brakes. We are
converting our very amusements into
forms of toll, laborious professions.
