Evolution of Chief Arthur.

The Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers was ten years old when in 1878
L. NJ. Arthur was elected its chief. The
first decade of the orders existence
had been a formative period devoted
more to the task of obtaining recruits
and of perfecting the lines of organiza-
ton than to battles for recognition or a
scale of wages. In 1867 the beneficiary
feature of the brotherhood was intro
duced, and the general impression of
the public at the time of the accession
of Arthur to the leadership of the en-
gineers was that the association was
more of lodge and an insurance order
than labor union. 1t seems strange
today, when the name of Arthur is u
synonym for conservatism and the con-
duct of a labor union without strikes,
to know that he was elected to the
post he now holds by the war party of
the brotherhood.
1t is still more strange to know that
for the first ten years of his leadership
he was almost constantly engaged in
leading his men through one bitter
strike after another and that his name
was eXecrated as a radical and dem
agogue and as one of the most danger
GUS men with whom frightened capital
had to contend for the protection of its
rights to control its own property

Pay as you go, boys. No matter how
earnestly you long for the possession of
gun, boat. a bicycle or what not
nor how certain you may be that at the
end of the week or the month you will
have the money to pay for it, do not
run in debt.
Lyman Abbott, the man who occu-
pied Henry Ward Beecher's place in
Plymouth pulpit, has this to say on the
spending of money before it is earned:
Hope inspires the man who is earning
for future expenditure; debt drives the
man who is earning for past expendi-
ture, and it makes an immeasurable
difference in life whether one is in
spired by hope or driven by debt"

put upon it that not only hinders him
from reaching the goal, but discour-
ages him In his efforts TO even knan his

Sack For an Invalid.

If one has an invalid relative or
friend, an acceptable gift is a loose
sack to be worn over the nightdress
when sitting up in bed. 1t may be
made Of any kind of washing flannel.
Take piece of flannel a yard and a
half long and twenty seven inches
wide, and in the center of one of the
longest sides cut it down six inches.
The two points thus made are to be
turned down to form sort Of trian-
gular collar on each side.
Bind all the edges with either wide
or narrow ribbon, as preferred, feath-
erstitching it down with washing silk
Turn down the collar points, carry
ing the ribbon around these where the
flannel has been cut, which is the back
Of the neck. Now fold each end even
ly for the sleeves, catching the edges
together five inches from the bottom,
and sew on a bow of ribbon.
Sew lengths of washing ribbon at
the neck on each side to tie together
with, and the simple little sack is fin
ished. These are so easy to slip on
that they are specially appreciated by
inyalidS.

The Baked Potato In Disguise.

The homely baked potato is apt to
become monotonous article of food if
1t appears undisguised at the luncheon
table day after day or even five or six
times a week. With a little trouble
the potato can be made into a very ap-
petizing dish by itself.
One way is to cut off the end of each
baked potato, scoop out the inside,
mash, adding milk, butter, salt and
pepper, the same as for mashed pota-
toes. Then place the mashed potato
back in the potato shells, stick in the
end of each a slice of bacon fried crisp.
place in the oven and heat through.
This makes an ideal luncheon dish.
Another way is to add grated cheese
to the mashed potato and place back in
the shells and heat through so that the
cheese melts. Some hostesses garnish
potatoes baked this way with bit of
white Of egg beaten stiff and spray
of parsley.

Children and Scissors.

of scissors that children are allowed to
handle. Kindergarten depots contain
scissors especially rounded for the use
of the little ones. They are rounded at
the ends and are tolerably sharp. Ex-
pensive scissors may be bought, but
cheaper ones answer very well if the
joint is oiled. To hold scissors properly
for paper cutting the thumb and mid
die finger should pass through the
loops, and the forefnger should be held
under the lower blade to guide it. The
right hand should be kept still and the
paper moved as required by the left
hand. The scissors should never be
closed until the cutting out is finished.

DRESS HINTS.

White slippers and stockings are usr-
ally worn with white evening dresses.
Mud stains should be allowed to dry,
then thoroughly brushed with dry
cloth and the spots removed with al
cohol.
Silk skirts will retain their freshness
much longer if loops are sewed under
the founces and the skirts hung up
side down from these loops.
To appear shorter avoid up and down
stripes. Have the trimmings on your
gowns run around, wear low heeled
shoes and have your hats trimmed
low.
When fitting dress on a person
with a narrow back and the ordinary
front measure, use a back of Il smaller
pattern-as, for instance, u thirtyfour
back with thirtysiX front.
Camphor, as is well known, is useful
in keeping away moths, but it should
never be placed near sealskin. 1t is
said that it causes this fur to change
color, producing streaks of gray and
yellow.
a gentle friction with emery paper
will remove the shine from the shoul-
ders and elbows of ones gown. Rub
just enough to raise little nap and
then go over with warmed silk hand
kerchef.
When Il skirt shows signs Of wearing
around the pocket, take the pocket out
and put it on the other side, sewing up
the seam where it was before. This
looks neater than putting a patch
around the pocket.
When drop Innings hang below the
outside skirt materials, it proves that
they have been cut too long or that
they swing around and are out Of
place for need of few tackings at the
side aud back seams to hold the two
materials together.

Minimum Wage 900.

Professor Albion Small of the Univer-
sity of Chicago believes that in the gen
eral wage scale the minimum should be
$1,000 year and the maximum should
be $4,000
He advanced this idea in lecture
before the Central Y. NJ. G. A. of Chi
cago recently on Social Economics .
Professor Small does not believe that
any man has wage earning capacity
worth more than the present salary of
the president of this country, and he
believes that no man can live, bring up
a family and enjoy the ordinary human
happiness on less than $1,000 year.
He would solve the wage problem by
adjusting all men to this scale and by
barring all women and minors from the
wage earning necessity.

task, and the publicity given to DR.. Bar
ney's proposition by the press soon
brought forward a person willing to risk
everything, even life, in the interest Of
science.
SmguIarly enough the person who re-
sponded to DR.. Barney's requirement was
! a Woman-not some unfortunate starv-
cling, eager to risk her life for the Jp-
portunity to earn money with which to
feed her starving little ones or helpless
parents, but young and beautiful Wom-
an of independent means prompted to the
heroic action by desire to help to solve
question of such tremendous magnI-
tude to her fellow beings.
DR.. Barney has told this young woman,
Miss King, of New York, that she may
acquire consumption from this Injection
of so rapid and dangerous a character
that he may be unable to save her life.
but that he hopes the tuberculosis will
not develop so rapidly that he will not
be able to keep it under control.
Miss King has been interested in DR..
Barney's experiment since last February
which induced her to come forward so
the altar of science.
In response to inquiries as to the state
of her feelings in undertaking the sacrI-
fee Miss King says simply and with
that superb heroism of which true WoIn-
anhood is capable: Il hope DR.. Barney
will be able to cure me as he has prom
iSed to try his best to do, but if not +
shall be satisfied to have done something
during my life for my fellow beings l
have done very little for anyone before"
In order to secure an absolutely healthy
cow DR.. Barney called upon a well known
experimenting veterinary surgeon, DR..
Walter Lincoln Bell of Brooklyn, Who
assisted him in finding what appeared to
be perfectly healthy cow. This black
and white Jersey Shorthorn was examin-
ed and re-eXamined a number of times in
order to make everything sure as to tho
fact of its perfect healthiness. Even the
tubercul1n test was given but failed 20
demonstrate the slightest symptom Of
tuberculosis. After every proof had been
secured as to the perfect freedom of the
COW from tuberculosis it was locked ID
in private barn on q South Elliott
street.
The next step was to secure some OF
the germs of consumption from a human
subject, something which, unfortunately.
1t Is only too easy to find in anyone's
medical pra ctice.
"A new patient already far gone with
the disease was selected and It was an
easy matter to obtain virulent germs
from his throat. The bacilli taken from
this patient were, according to the usual
procedure in such cases, mixed with
beef bouillion used by psychologists in
their important experiments. WHEN
thoroughly mixed the matter was placed
in a tube to be left in an incubator
where the development Of the germs
would be forced.
this investigation has been taken the
germs thus propagated in the incubator
were not injected directly into the COW.
When the tubes were taken from the
incubator it was found that swarms OF
bacilli had been developed. Under the
microscope the character of these bacilli
became indisputable and yet science

Special to The Globe.
NEW YORK, Jan. is. - 1t is possible
for the bacilli of tuberculosis to be con-
veyed to US through the medium of that
draught Of typical purity, the milk of
the COW? If so, the innocent looking bev
erage which we have been taught to
look upon as the veritable cup of the
gods is more deadly than the vilest whis-
ky ever handed over the bar of the foul
est grog shop on earth.
Quite lately. at the tuberculosis con-
gress held in Europe, where all the great
authorities on serum and microbes were
gathered to discuss the question of all
most vital to the health Of the human
race, the great and learned DR.. Koch,
diScoVerer of the consumption bacillus
and originator of the first serum for de-
stroying the deadly germ, enunciated the
theory that it was impossible to inoculate
human beings with the bacilli Of the COW.
His statement, while it relieved many
from the dread they had experienced pre-
viously over the use of cows milk, or
even the use of beef, caused a wave OF
sl1epticism to float over the professional
field. and the colleagues of DR.. Koch no
sooner returned to their laboratories than
they commenced to launch out articles
denuciatory of his opinion in regard to
the transference of bovine and human
tuberculosis.
A battle of words ensued-mere words
but no one thought of putting the mat
ter to an actual test until DIR. George d.
Barney, of Brooklyn, N. Y, a specialist
Of the respiratory organs, who has en-
joyed the distinction of being president
of the Long Island Medical society, sur
| geon to the outdoor department. of St
Johns hospital, visiting surgeon to the
Kings county hospital and incumbent OF
| many other offices, came forward and an
nounced that he would attempt to dis
prove the Koch dictum.
In order to carry out his proposed ex-
pertinent it was necessary for DR.. Bar
ney to secure a COW which was absolute
ly free from tuberculosis and a human
subject willing to risk his or her life by
having the so-called innocent tuberculosis
germs injected into themselves.
The former was an easily accomplished
