POINTED QUESTIONS.
Put Yourself In the Other Ones
Place and Answer.


The great task of sound ethics is to
stimulate the social Imagination. We
must be continually prodding our sense
of social consequence to keep it wide
| awake. We must be asking ourselves
at each point of contact with the lives
of others such pointed questions IS
these:
How would you like to be the tailor
or washerwoman whose bill you have
neglected to pay?e
How would you like to be the GUS
toner to whom you are selling these
adulterated or inferior goods?
How would you like to be the in
weston i'll this stock company which : u
are promoting with water?
How would you like to be the employ
err whose time and tools and material
you are wasting at every chance you
get to loaf md shirk and neglect the
duties yot ;.re paid to perform?
How would you like to be the clerl>
or saleswoman in the store where you
| are reaping extra dividends by impos-
ing harder conditions than the state of
trade and the market compel you to
adopt?
How would you like to be the stOker
or weaver or mechanic on the wages
you pay and the conditions of labor
you impose?
How would you like to be the bust
ness rival whom you deprive of his lit
tie all by using your greater wealth in
temporary cutthroat competition? -

THE SEWlr q MACHINE.
unsuccessful Inventions That Pre-
coded HOwe's Patent In 1S46.

Unsuccessful Inventions That Pre-
coded Howc's Patent In 1916.
The technical beginning OF the sew
Ing machine industry in this country
was Sept. 10, 1916 when Elias Howe,
Jr.. obtained patent for what grew
into the first really practical sewing
machine. Only three of the first Howe
machines were made. however, and
one OF these was deposited in the pat
ent office in Washington as model.
1t was not until after 1850 that fac
tory for the making of sewing ma
chimes was Quilt, SO the enormous bust
ness of today has grown up in short
half century.
While HOwe's invention marked the
beginning of successful industry, he
was by no means the pioneer in eff
forts to substitute mechanical for hand
sewing. AS far back as 1910 Thomas
Alsop patented in England machine
for embrOidering. Another machine
for embroidering in loom was invent
ed by John Duncan in 1904, and TWEEN
ty-five years later another Englishman
named Heilman patented still another
embroidering machine.
The first recorded attempt at me-
chanical sewing was the invention Of
Thomas Saint, who took out a patent
in England in 1890 for machine which
executed the old crochet stitch. 1t
was not success. but some Of the
features of the Saint machine appear
in the perfected machine Of today.
Bartholemy Thimonnier patented in
France in 1880 the first sewing ma
chine put to practical use. Eighty Of
his machines We're in use for sewing
army clothing in 1871. when mob de-
strOyed them because convinced they
would drive seamstresses out of en-
ployment. Thimonnier built new and
better machines, but all his work was
aga:n destroyed by angry artisans in
1S4S.
John J. Greenough took out the first
patent for a sewing machine issued in
the United States in 1912. 1t was in
tended to sew leather, but was of no
practical use.
Walter Hunt Of New York built q
sewing machine in 1884. but failed to
protect it by patent. After Howe's
machine appeared Hunt declared it
embodied the ideas of his machine Of
1884. but he was unable to establish
his claim.
A small army of inventors appeared
after Howe's patent had proved sue
cessful. and their genius was devoted
to perfccting every part of the ma
chine. How we'll they have succeeded
is shown in the $500 patents for sew
ing machines and attachments issued
by the United States since 1850 and in
the fact that the American sewing ma
chine leads all others in every country
in the world.-New York Herald.

Church and WOrkmen.

1t would be an eXaggeration to say
that all working people feel antago-
nistic toward the church. Their general
attitude is rather that of Indifference.
The thinking poor are well enough
aware that there is nothing unnatural
in the situation and that if the tables
were so turned that world advantage
shifted to their side it would probably
remain unchanged. At times their feel
ing, especially toward the clergy. is Gu
riously sympathetic. Say" remarked
labor leader of vivid mind to the
writer-"say, I'm awfully sorry for
ministers. Most of them are real good
men. They know we'll enough what
Christ meant, and they'd like first rate
to preach if they dared. But, Lord.
how can they? They've got to draw
their salaries; they've got families to
support" All this quite without a
touch of irony.-Vida D. Scudder in
Atlantic.

A MANS NECK7IE.
What the Manner of Its Arrange
ment Tells to One Woman.


ment Tells to One Woman.
II wouldn't attempt to judge man
by his coat" she said gravely, but
would not hesitate two minutes to
judge him by his necktie. 1t is an al
most infallible guide. OF course there
are exceptions, but the character and
intellect of most men can be told by
the way in which they tie their ties
Now, take the overclever man, for ex-
ample.
''The tie of the genius has afforded
much copy for the pen of the satirist
and the pencil of the caricaturist, but
in reality any little popularity or lido
syncrasy in dressing is generally the
outward and visible sign of vanity
rather than of personal untidiness. The
average man, with an ordinary share
of intellect seldom knows how to tie
tie as it can be tied and is tied by
men with no intellect at all. He may
possess charming selection of the
best ties which Broadway can supply
and does not in the least look eccentric
nay, rather he often wants to be as
smart in appearance as possible, but
somehow he rarely achieves his object.
Directly you see really beautifully
tied tie Except in the cases of military
men and actors, with whom it is a
part of the training) which never
moves out CT place, following faithfully
the little idosyncrasies of contempora-
~ dandyism, you may be fairly certain
that you are not face to face with an
undiscovered Shakespeare or an en-
bryonic Goethe. OF course. in the case
of rich and important parsonage, the
lesser details of the toilet are usually
left to the valet, but even then defy
a man of real brains to keep his tie at
the exact angle for any considerable
time. AT dinner you will generally find
that by the time the soup has arrived
the evening tie has shifted it's position
or become obliquely set. This could
probably be easily avoided. only it hap
pens that the way in which man
wears his tie indicates pretty accurate
~ the wearer's intellectual apprecia-
ton of trifes.-TOledo Blade.

Children tumble into strange morass-

were put to test the understanding of
the scholars. with what weapon did

Neihart, March 2O.-J. L. Adams,
known throughout northern Montana
as Curly" Adams, was found dead
in his bed in the Judge hotel here this
noon. He had been drinking heavily
for several days. Last night he enter
ed the hotel kitchen and while wander
ing about there, slipped and fell,
striking his head. He apparently was
not severely injured and soon after
wards went to his room. This morn
ing he did not come to breakfast. At
noon he had not appeared, and the
hotel people broke in the door of his
room. He was found lying fully dress
ed upon his bed, and dead. The ply
sician who examined him said death
was cue to heart failure produced by
overwhelming. Adams was a mining
man and about IS years Of! His only
relatives in this state are a son and
daughter near Maiden. He carried
$4,000 insurance in the A. o. u. w,

The president has named Captain

Captain Babcock was appointed to

OF the office shortly thereafter. While
his term Of Office expired months ago
it has been conceded that when Pres

Some time following the filing of
his application and endorsements an

Captain Babcock had already been
endorsed by republicans of the city,
who usually control such matters, the
appointment of Mr.. Frizelle seemed
out of the question.
