ssrT' HE ATTITUDE of workmen generally,
and particularly OF trades.unionists, in
Il regard to labor.savng machinery has
been warmly discussed through the
newspapers ever since the great strike OF the TN.
glneers couple of years ago." says United
States Consul Boyle OF Liverpool in his recent
annual report "The charge Is made that there is
general disposition on the part of British
worknglnen to obstruct much as possible the
use Of laborsaving machinery, and to limit its
output whenever the employers add machinery to
their plant; and also that In certain trades the
rule is one man, one machine whereas in
America one man will attend to two or three
machines IL Is furthermore charged that there Is
an increasing disposition on tho part Of British
workingmen to shirk work, and to use all expe-
dients to perform as little labor as possible dur
ing the hours for which they are paid. These
charges are made with great particularly against
tradeunionists. There is, it Is to be noted. q
growing tendency throughout the country to
shorten the hours of labor, while at the same
tline there is an upward movement in wages. As
a rule, trades'unionists deny the charge of OBJ
slrueting the use of laborsaving machinery and
limiting the output; and they retort that EN-.
ployers are lacking in enterprise in not lifting
up their factories with uptodatc plants. it is
undoubtedly true, however, thaat speaking gen.
orally ana quite apart from the question of
tradesunionism, English manufacturers find Il cl-
most impossible to get the same amount of prod.
uct from machines is obtained in America.
There are two reasons that account for this, in
dependent of any agreement, express or implied,
on the part Of trades.unionists to limit the out
put. The first reason is that, as Il rule the Brit.
isl workman Is not as adaptable as the American
Workman-he does not so readily get command
of new appliances as the American workman;
and the second is that it is not the custom of
the country for an Englishman, whether me-

ODE TO A PEANUT.

Oh, the peanut, with its racket,
As you crack it,
Has a cheerful sound TO back it
As ii leaps from dusky she'll;
Whether fingers trim attack it,.
Or dimpled fists do thwack it,
Or first-thing handy whack it
From its coy, silk-lined cell!
Whether roasted, clndied, salted,
IL is exalted;
Lives there one who knows it faulted,
II he but the truth will tell2
Lives there one who has not halted,
With olfaetories assaulted
(unleSs pickels have deiaulted)
By the roasting peanuts smell?
But when round the table brightly,
Ever brightly,
Goes the chat and laughter lightly,
When the gay ones ''iorieits" sell;
Then the peanut, roasted quitely.
Beats an other 'frcshments, slightly,
Save a loving glance, and sprightly
Lift OF lips to pay one we'll.

eral group of men and women, the
teaching force, which is the real es-
sence of any school, is a proposition
that does not yet appeal to the man of
means. I cannot understand this re-
luctance." There are many who can't.
This is his optimistic conclusion: II
expect to see the day when % man with
millions to give for the education of
the children of his fellow-man will en-
dow his gift upon the flesh and blood
and spirit of teachers rather than on
blocks of wood and stone; for there
are preachers who minister five hours
a day five days week unto such as
may make the Kingdom of Heaven up
on earth; for they are physicians who
attend the birth of all those nobler
qualities, mind and heart, that make
noble men and gentle women. These
are they whom you call teachers"
We trust that in this expectation he
may not be disappointed. It's realiza-
tion would be glorious.

1t is improbable that the new Justice
party, which seems to have been organ
lied upon the teachings of the golden
rule, will have many followers among
the elements that usually seek new
political issues. The reform party that
is not out for someone's scalp does
not cut much of figure these days.

The advertisement received by the
Groton school through the illness of
Theodore Roosevelt, jr., does not seem
to be of the kind that is desirable. The
faculty of a school that permits young
students to run about the fields bare
headed during spells of zero weather
displays an unconventional disregard
for good health rules which, though
perhaps novel, is decidedly risky.

The Filipino junta in it's latest mani
festo states that the citizens OF the
islands do not want a stone in place of
bread even if the stone is diamond.
This should be sufficient evidence that
the junta leaders do not possess proper
business qualifications to fit them for
self government.

WHY WOMEN FADE.

A million women today should be told what other millions have learned That they need one element in their blood far more than men. and that lack of 1t Is the reason they are apt to fade many years before they should. The needed element Is iron. Iron builds up the red corpuscles of the blood and sustains vitality and strength.
 Women need a constant supply of blood down under the constant drain The very the blood is impoverished the signal ap- pears upon the face in sallowness or pallor.

WHERE THE SANDMAN
 GETS HIS SAND

From Louis H. Ross & O., Boston, comes one of the most popular songs for children. Where the Sandman Gets His Sand" with words and music by Ziteila Cocke. The verses originally appeared in the Youths Companion, and are repro duced in Miss Cocke's latest book of verses, "The Grasshoppers Hop"
 The words are very charming and the music appropriate, being especially suit ed for children and kindergarten work. Miss Cooke is among the best known writers of books for children, and her songs are pronounced gems in compost tion. Her lullabys are delightful and very popular. Miss Cooke is an Alabamian and her work should be of particular interest in her native state.
 Her poems are appearing constantly in different periodicals, the Christmas poem in Lippincott's being from her pen. She has orders from the Independent and the Youths Companion for the Easter poems Miss Cooke Is now at work upon a new book Her latest book was one of the most popular during the holiday sales for there is. always greater demand for children's books at that season than at any other time of the year, and for ob- vious reasons. 'The Grasshoppers' Hop. as we'll as everything that Miss Cooke writes, is interesting and refreshing at all times. and no more entertaining little book could be placed In the hands of the little folk nor more attractive songs lisped by childish noises.
