Labor Men Profeaf.

A dispatch says that the Federated Trades and Labor Council of Montreal has passed the following resolution:
 That the Federated Trades and Labor Council protests against the action of the city council in voting SIG, GOO to entertain the Duke of Cornwall, believing that the money might be better spent in establishing free library or home for incur ables.
 That this council is of the opinion that the en. tertainuent of this gentleman should be left to private interests, thereby giving the rich men of Montreal chance to show their loyalty,
 And, further, that petition the Quebec gov ernment to deprive the city council of the right to vote money for such purpose.
 This is deemed to be an intimation that the masses of the people are not likely to be as complaisant in their submission to King Edward VII as they were to Queen Victoria. It is said that when the spring drills are be- gun many of the members of the militia will refuse to re-enlist and swear allegiance to the king.

Spies I'm Labor Meetings.

A dispatch from Dayton, O., says: In confirmation of suspicious held for some time local labor unions have dis covered that spies have been at work in the city, having been in attendance at secret meetings in the interest of de- tective agencies, by which, 1t is claim ed, they were employed. At meeting held in Sanders hall three men were caught and forced to admit that they were spies. It was only through the fact that calm Judgment prevailed that the strangers were not badly treated at once Instead they were compelled to make a confession before the union ists, after which they were escorted to their homes by special committee. It was feared that violence would be at- tempted against them. It is stated that the spies have turned over to the unions interested all their correspond ence in consideration of their being let out without further trouble. Union men say that they have suspected the presence of outside parties for some time. They hope the force of the ex- ample will be felt, for 1t is not likely that other spies caught will be treated with such consideration.

The milk is boiled for about an hoEr with constant stirring until it becomes fairly thick. A small quantity of fer ment made by soaking a dry fig in three ounces of water overnight, then adding few drops of lemon juice and a very little rennet is added. The re- suit is a smooth. semisolid, easily di- gested milk food of an agreeable taste and quite we'll borne by the most deli cate stomach. This preparation Is find ing much favor with physicians, it be ing claimed for it that it is more agree able to the taste than either koumiss or matzoon and can be taken by the most delicate patient without disturb ance of digestion. The proportion of ferment to milk is a tablespoonful to the quart.

How to Hang Pictures.

dark, heavily shaded pictures should not always hang in the strongest light, but should in some cases seek shel- tered position, away from the glare of the windows. Near the light may hang pictures in fainter tints, the sub dued water colors, the line engravings whose best points need illumination. Just as in a we'll planned room the dark color is found in the carpet and melts from that through the shades of the curtains and furniture to the light est nuance in the wall, so the lower pictures should be more somber in hue than the upper and should lead the eye unconsciously from the deep est tone to the highest light.

was for the benefit of the shop-hands. These petitions the several manufac- turers then sent around the several factories, through their bosses. for the signatures thereto of their hands. Of course, their working men and women could do nothing but sign them, as directed and as they emanated from their own employers, whose will must be law, or else be out of job. Many, too, signed them, not knowing at all their purport, simply because some boss or foreman told them to do so. They did not stop to reflect that the proprietors of their shops objected to Tuesday night closing simply because they were fearful their workmen might ask eventually shorter hours in the mill each day, and especially for the reason, among others, that it was neces- sary for them, the stores closed even ings, to do some trading in the hours of daylight. Once, then, the public came really to understand the true inwardness of these petitions opposing Tuesday nights closing of stores, they fell flat and useless, when it was dis closed that the men behind the guns were the manufacturers themselves.

ENGLAND'S PEASANTRY.
Conditions c Century Ago Contrast
 ed With the Present.

COn01t1On8 c century Ago COmTR096S
 ed With the Present.
 The agricultural laborers of today are certainly better clad, more 1uxuri- ously fed, have more leisure, are better educated and are rapidly becoming bet ter housed than their forefathers cen tury ago. And if these are the main constituents of happiness then they are happier.
 On the other hand, their grandrathers and great-grandfathers were much more gay and light hearted than the modern. They enjoyed their lives much more than their descendants do, they had incomparably more laughter, more amusement, more real delight in the labor of their hands; there was more love among them and less hate. The agricultural laborer had a bad drunken time between 20 or 30 years ago, and he has been growing out of that. A village sot is now 8 very rare bird, as rare as he was 100 years ago. Then the laborer- could not afford 8 drunken debauch; he had not the wherewithal. His master, the farmer, did drink and sometimes deeply in the days when he was prospering. And for a few years after the rise of the la borer's wages, some 25 years ago, the laborer was the pubIican's friend. But hard drinking has been steadily declin- ing, and the habitual drunkard is look ed upon as a coarse brute to be avoid ed. As to other vices, things are pret- ty much as they were, I am afraid rather worse than better.
 Perhaps the SaddeSt characteristic of the men of the present as compared with the men of the past is that the men of the past were certainly more self dependent-I do not mean inde- pendent in the sense in which that word is used now-more resourceful, more kindly, more courteous and con- tented with their lot than their de- scendants are.
 I.think know something about the English peasantry of a century or two gone by. I think I know just little about the agricultural 1aborer nowa- days. I bear him 8 genuine love and feel with him cordial sympathy, and there is no knowing any men or any class of men whom we do not love and sympathize with. But as to the agri- cultural laborer of the future, I am sometimes inclined to doubt seriously whether before another century has ended there will be any such thing as an agricultural laborer to know Nineteenth Century.

La.Il0p In Politics.

The board of delegates of the build ing trades of New York has appointed a committee to draft plan for political action by the labor unions of Greater New York, which may be extended throughout the state. The committee is instructed to report at either of the two remaining meetings of the board this week, and a conference of labor repre- sentatives will probably be called for a date within the present month.
 This action followed a long discus sion of the recent adverse decisions from the court of appeals and a stirring recital of the opposition to labor inter ests from other state and city officials. It was decided that the only redress for these grievances is in the consolfda ton and nonpartisan direction of the voting power in the hands of the work ingmen.

Slavery Tn Russia.

The fact that trade in human be ings is still carried on in remote parts of Russia is reported by the Russkiya Viedomosti, which states that at Ko- lymsk, in Siberia, Russian merchants and officials buy the children of the exiles and thus obtain servants, which are difficult to obtain there. AS soon as they can work at all they are forced to perform all the housework, and it Is only when they reach q that they become free. In one case f5 was paid for a female child. A similar state of affairs prevails in the central parts of Siberia, where a young man whom his owner wished to get rid of was sold by public auction. :

How to Proceed to Prevent Spread ing the Malady.
 Tn caring for any contagious disease
 at home there are certain precautions to be observed by the nurse for her
 own safety as we'll as the spread of the disease. Free ventilation is one of the ,, most important items. The better the ventilation the less the chance of conta- zion by diluting the air. To insure this take board about a foot wide and the length of the window and slip 1t under the window opened to admit it. This provides constant current of fresh air through the middle opening between the two sashes and without danger of drafts. Then by opening the window from the top a short distance several times an hour the room is kept thor oughly aired.
 Prolonged contact with the patient should be avoided, and no food or fruit that has been in the sickroom should be eaten by any but the patient. The person filling the office of nurse should never eat without previous and thor ough washing of the face and hands. Ordinary soap and water cleanliness is not enough. This must be supplement- ed by some disinfecting preparation, preferably a solution of to 2,OOO cor rosive sublimate.
 For the prevention of contagion to others & strict quarantine should be tablished. An upper room should be used if possible, and the furniture should be as severely simple as is con- sistent with the comfort of the patient If there is a prospect of long illness, two small cots will prove a great con- venience. By placing them close to- gether it is easy to move the patient from one to another when changing the bedding and also permits each to be thoroughly aired each day.
 Preferably the floor should be bare, with two or three light rugs that can be cleansed when the quarantine is re- moved. All draperies of woolen should be dispensed with, likewise pictures, books or any upholstered furniture or bric-a-brac that will not stand disin- fecting. In severe cases an excellent precaution for the safety of the rest of the house is to hang a sheet portiere- wise before the door of the sickroom and frequently saturate 1t with diluted carbolic acid, so that whenever it is necessary to open the door the air pass ing out of the room is purified before reaching the halls. The nurse should also be provided with several loose cot ton gowns to wear in the sickroom, changing them if permitted to go into other parts of the house.
 Nothing must go out of the sickroom until disinfected. The dishes used must be thoroughly scalded before sending the tray out of the room. At the end of the disease the room and its con- tents, including both nurse and patient, must be thoroughly disinfected.

How to Cure Hicceughs.

While hiccough is not often attended with serious results, it is sufficiently annoying to make it worth while to know some of the simpler and more effectual remedies within reach of non- professionals. Holding the breath for 15 or 20 seconds is recommended in case of light attacks. In graver cases quick acting emetic may be used or hot water may be applied on the back of the neck. The rapid swallowing of small pieces of ice, it is said, will some times stop violent fit of hiccoughs.

 q will take pleasure in voting for the Pettigrew resolution. I am very frank, however, to say that it has not a chance of passing. Every indication now points to the stern fact that for at least four years legislation will be in the hands of those who disregard the principles of our government and defy the constitution in order that they may legislate the more effectively for the great combinations of capital which now control the country"
