The Table Napkin.

Curiously enough, that article now
considered almost Indispensable, the
table napkin, was first used only by
children and was adopted by elder
members of the family about the mid
die Of the fifteenth century. In eti-
quette books of an earlier date than
this among other sage pieces of advice
for children are instructions about wip-
ing their fingers and lips with their
napkins.
1t seems that the tablecloth was long
enough to reach the floor and served
the grown people III place of napkins.
When they did begin to use napkins,
they placed them first on the shoulder,
then on the left arm and finally tied
them about the neck.

KNITTING IN PARLIAMENT.


Net So Many Years Ago Men Did the
Knitting For Scotland.
Quite a thrill of surprise was caused
by a Scottish member of parliament
who was recently observed calmly
knitting a stocking while waiting in
the smoking room of the house of com
mons. At the present day the sight Of
Il man plying the knitting needles is Il
novel one, though in the remoter parts
of Scotland it is not at all uncommon.
Less than half a century ago, how
ever, the greater part of the stockings
worn We're knitted by the men folk
the women confning their attention
more or less to spinning.
The shepherd starting out at the
break of day to his duties on the hill
would as soon have forgotten his lunch
Of oaten cakes and barley bannocks as
his knitting needles and wool AS he
trudged through the heather on his
visit to each part of his wide scatter
ed flock or directed from a conven-
lent height the rounding up efforts of
his faithful collie his tireless fingers
piled their task.
Even the well to do farmer as he
chatted with a friend of markets and
"nowt" Cattle could i'll bear to see
the minutes wasted, and the "click,
click" of his needles bore witness to
his diligence.
Such industry seems strange to the
present day mind, but what else had
they to occupy their minds and time?
Newspapers, as we know them now,
there We're absolutely none. Once
week or less frequently small local
sheet would circulate among the well
TO do homes.
As for books, these were often linn
tied to the Bible and 1.-THE Pilgrims
Progress" OF games there were but
few, and for the most part these were
not encouraged.-Hom Chat.

A VETERAN AT EIGHT.


Babes Who Toll For n Pittnnce In
Factories of the South.
Not a month ago visited one of the
finest mills in the south, in Columbia,
S. @. The electric plant is the pride of
the city, running two mills and the
street cars and electric lights of Co
lumbia. In the spinning room there
are over 100 children under twelve
working from dawn till dark. asked
one consumptive looking girl If she
had been there long. 81 haven't work
ed but a year" she said. She was just
eight years old.
l spoke to mite of girl, scarcely
more than a toddling infant. Her soft
baby hair was covered with the
threads she had laid back on her head
as she worked; her little sunbonnet
had fallen back on her neck. She did
not know her age, nor did her "elder"
sister, whom she was helping. A girl
Of eight years old told me they were
five and seven respectively and work
ed there "all day long"
| went that same night to a mill un-
der northern management, and there
at 1890 p. IN. | talked to children who
did not know their own ages working
from .. m. to a. IN. amid the racket
and roar of machinery which did not
cease for one moment during the night.
A friend of mine found child of
five years working at night under these
conditions.
Hideous accidents are the order of
the day. In one mill town in the south
doctor told friend that he had per-
sonally amputated over 100 baby fin
gers mangled in the cruel machinery.
He dared not speak of it, he said, for
the mill management preferred doc
tors who could keep their mouths shut.
In Huntsville, Ala, last January,
little girl of eight years old lost two
fingers of her right hand in the ma
chinery. Had she worked two weeks
longer she would have earned 0 cents
Il day.
For such pittances are these children
sold by the community they belong to,
sold to a life of ignorance and moral
and physical debasement.
The sad and curious excuse offered
throughout the south is that these chill
dren attract northern capital"
This assertion is certainly backed up
by the attitude of northern corpora
tions in the south In Alabama not
only did Massachusetts capital procure
from careless legislature ineXperi-
enced in the problems Of manufacture
the repeal of the protective law, but it
was the agent of the same mills who
was chosen to represent the entire mill
interest by the lobby which killed the
child labor bill introduced after | had
made my Investigations public.--lrene

DR.. David Kennedy'S FaYOrite Remedy.

II you are suffering from kidney or
bladder disease, the doctor asks: "Do
you desire to urinate often, and are you
compelled to get up frequently during
the night? Does your back pain you?
Does your urine stain linen? Is there
scalding pain in passing it, and is it
difficult to hold the urine back? If so,
your kidneys or bladder are diseased"
Try putting some of your urine in
glass tumb bier, let it stand twenty-four
hours. If there is sediment, or
cloudy, milky appearance, your kidneys
are sick.

THE EIGHT HOUR BILL.
Weak Case Put Up by the Lawyers
of the MEASURES Opponents.


of the Mensure's Opponents.
AS is generally known, bill restrict
iAg the hours of labor on all work done
by the government and for the govern
ment, whether by contract or subcon-
tract, has been introduced in the house
of representatives by the Hon. John ].
Gardner of New Jersey. The commit.
tee on labor of the house has had the
bill under consideration, and several
hearings have been had thereon. Some
of the most noted and able attorneys of
the United States have been in con-
slant attendance at the committees
hearings, representing particularly the
Cramp Ship company and the Bethle-
hem Steel works. The legislative com.
mittce and the president of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor have also
been in daily attendance at the hear
lngs. representing labor's interests.
During the hearings peculiar circum.
stances and contradictions have pre-
sented themselves, which exposed the
inconsistency of the opponents posi-
tion. One Of the main contentious of
the opposition is that it is impossible to
produce steel of the high grade required
for armor plate and guns within eight
hours and that it is impossible to turn
over heat Of steel to other workmen
of equal skill without deterioration of
the quality.
This contention has been successfully
refuted by dislnterested and competent,
practical witnesses brought forward by
labor's representatives. 1t has been
shown that the very thing contended
against is now pracdced with men
working ten and twelve hour shifts
that is, that unfinished heats, forgings
and castings are turned over from one
set of men to another under the ten
and twelve hour system; that different
sets or crews of men are engaged at
different furnaces in the smelling of
steel for one and the same forging or
casting, and therefore it is not only
possible, but now the practice; that
four different crews Of men often work
Mt different heats for one casting and
forging.
There must of necessity be con
ulllOlS GAuClly dllhG III an u SAiNS'
heats, for otherwise the slightest vari
alton in any one of the four heats
would ruin the casting or forging;
hence If this can be done now there
cannot be any obstacle in the way of
men of equal skill taking over an un-
finished heat under an eight hour rule.
Personal investigation, as well as
testimony cleaned after the close of
the hearings before the house commit
tee on labor, has demonstrated be-
yond question that the opposition to
the eight hour bill upon this ground is
absolutely without any basis in fact.
Apart from this, the opponents to the
eight hour bill claim that they are not
opposed to the eight hour system If it
were generally applied in the industry
Of the country, yet by the witnesses
they have put upon the stand they
have endeavored to prove that the ''sys
tenn" is impossible. Whenever this in
consistency has been pointed out to
the committee, the legal representa-
tiyes of the opponents have flared up
and by an assumption of Indignation
tried to hide their discomfiture.-Sam

and an account. A jury was selected
with but little trouble. Hammonds
has twice been convicted of murder in
was reversed by the Supreme Court on
the ground that no generalization was
shown. The Circuit Judge set aside
the second verdict after two weeks
investigation of the jury on the ground
that several jurors had grossly pref
udiced the case against Hammonds be-
fore they went into the jury box.
