Servant Used Dinner Material with
Which to Wash Windows.
There Is a prominent doctor in
Germantown who is busy telling a lit
tie joke on himself, says the Phila-
delphia Telegraph. 1t appears that
he employed an Irish servant, who
had just arrived from the "ould sod"
Starting out one morning, he noticed
his office windows were rather dirty,
and calling Bridget he instructed her
to clean them before he returned. At
the same time he told her that he
would stop and purchase a new
chamois skin and send 1t home. and
with this she was to clean the win
dows. After he had gone his rounds
he returned to his office. CHANGING at
the windows he found them thickly
streaked with grease. He called
Bridget and the following coloquy
took place:
Bridget. didn't I tell you to clean
the windows?"
yes, sor."
And didn't tell you to use tho
new chamois?"
Eyes, sor."
We'll, did you use it?"
Sure. did. sor."
Let me see the chamois," said
the doctor. and Bridget promptly
brought 1t. Then for the first time he
learned that his wife had left the
house half hour before he did in
me morning and had sent home some
lripe- The doctor declines to say

Mrs. Wilkins wanted a servant girl.

in the morning paper. That was at
night, says the Portland Oregonian.

with spectacles.

You can search me-" wilkins as
sured her.
Haven't you got girl here?" pur-
sued the visitor.
No. said wilkins; do you want a

The trusts have won another big

The trusts have won another big
victory-everything goes their way
nowadays. This last sets at naught
all antitrust laws, sweeps the deck
clean and makes them monarehs of
all they can grab. Justice Harlan
of the United States Supreme Court
last week decided the Illinois anti
trust statute to be unconstitutional,
because of the provision of the law
exempting agricultural products
and live stock from the operations
of the law. The decision was rem
dered in the case of Thomas Con,
nelly and others against the Union
Sewer Pipe Co., of Ohio. In effect
the decision declares unconstitu-
tional tie anti trust laws of Geor-
gia, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana,
M chigan, Mississippi, Montana,
N -braska, North Carolina, South
D lkota, Tennessee, Texas and Wis
cInsin. In each of these states
there is an exemption in favor of
live stock and agricultural products
in the hands of the raiser or pro-
ducer or of labor organizations.
With the trusts dominating IL Q
courts of justice, as well as the leg
islative bodies, where are the peo-
pie to look for protection from
them but to the election of no
men but those who will not only
make, but enforce laws, for the
reg llation of these commercial
vampires.
