The Regulation of Wages

That the standard of living regu-
lates wages in all countries is now
an accepted fact. Wages are slightly
higher in Russia than in Asia, higher
in Germany and France than in Rus
sia, higher in England than on the
continent, and higher in the United
States than in England; and in this
country they are higher in the East
and West than they are in the south;
they are higher in the large cities
than in the rural districts, and mems
wages are higher than women's. If
we seek forthe explanation of this we
shall find that in every instance. it
arises from the same cause; namely.
the difference in the cost and stand
ard of living. Nobody would think
of Offering an American mechanic the
wages that are readily accepted in
Asia; not because employers would
not like to pay that small amount,
but because it is obvious that his
social standard of living forbids it. He
could not live on that amount. and
this fact is so imperative that, If the
industries OF the United States
depended upon American laborers re-
ceiving Asiatic wages, the industries
would perish. This principle is SO
al-pervading that it has been found,

The Stone Woman Of winoen.


In New South Wales, near Wingen,
a singular natural curiosity is observ-
able. This is an object popularity
known as the Stone Woman of Win
gen. The spur of mountain range,
known as Salisbury Cra9, terminates
in bold, bluff headland, about 7Oo
feet above the level of the valley
which 1t commands, the profile as.
suming the form of a gray stone
woman of enormous dimensions sit
ting with her back against the cliff,
her head separated from the top and
her feet hidden among the trees
which grow up to the bottom of the
cliff. On her knee there is resting an
open book. which she is not reading,
but instead is gazing forever with a
steadfast, unchanging look down the
beautiful valley of the Hunter. From
where the feet Of the stone woman
rest among the towering trees that
grow around the base of Salisbury
Crag to the summit of her head must
be about 500 feet, so that if she were
to stand up straight some day she
would be about 500 feet high. II

Il Is often possible to give an old
room q decided air of newness at q
triAing expense by changing the sofa
pillows and table covers. Denims and
sateens can be found in all colors, and
they are easily kept in order. as both
fabrics can be laundered. Ruffled
sofa pillows are no longer deemed mo-
dish. Heavy cords or bindings of the
same materials are now used. A clev-
or woman desiring to freshen up her
small living room, which has plain
green walls, has made slip cover for
her lounge of yellow sateen. The pill
lows which rest upon it are covered
with the same fabric and are ap-
pliQued with an over design of green
linen. A cover for a table is treated
in the same manner.

Marvellous Memories.

Many of the greatest men have had
phenomenal memories. Caesar knew
the names of thousands of soldiers in
his legions. A modern man of sci
ence often has a prodigious memory
for special terminology. Prof. Asa
Gray asserted that he could at once
recall the names of something like
$4,000 plants; Prof. Theodore Gill can
do the same for fishes. The memory
for mere words is much more exten-
sive than is generally admitted. The
vocabulary of some 500 words, and
it's father may have the command of
10000 more. The 10000 verses of the
Rig Veda have for 5000 years been
accurately preserved in the memories
of the Brahmins: Not one Brahmin
alone, but thousands, can to-day recite
it word for word. Thousands of Mo-
by heart, as all learned Chinese know
their classic books. The chiefs of
Polynesia can, and do, repeat hun
dreds of thousands of words in their
Misunderstanding days, and even
weeks, for the recitation. Hundreds
of pianists can play all day, and many
days, by memory. and Won Bulow can
conduct Beethoven's Fifth Symphony
without score. Chess players have
a visualising memory, musicians have
an auditive and a motor memory,
while arithmetical prodigies may
have any one of the three.

Standard Of Livine
is the Only Guido

by extensive investigation, to respond
to almost imperceptible social pertur-
batfen. For instance, in the borough
OF Brooklyn, which is divided from
New York only by the East river,
trade unions, with all their power OF
close compact organization in the
same federation with New York, have
not been able to keep mechanics
wSges in Brooklyn up to the New
York standard. For a long time the
unions were at a loss to understand
this. They did the same work, were
just as well organized, had just as
many strikes, and yet the standard
was never raised quite so high. The
reason, which is now recognized, is
that rents are lower in Brooklyn than
in New York which means that the
cost of living is less. and that, there
fore. higher wages are socially neces-
sary in New York than in Brooklyn,
and higher wages are always paid.
The same is true of other cities, and
the trade union standard rates are ad-
justed accordingly.-From Lecture
Bulletin of the Institute of Social
Economics.

STRANGE Marine Search.

Little julius Cohen was drowned
twelve days ago at Coney Island creek
and the body has been recovered in
a most unusual manner. After the
father had the creek dragged day
after day, unsuccessfully, q sailor
said:
Get loaf of bread and cut the
center out. Then fill the hole with
quicksilver and put the bread in the
water near where the boy was
drowned. 1t will float until directly
over the spot where the body lies
and then sink.'
The loaf was prepared and placed
on the water. 1t f1oated for half an
hour, then settled in the water and
suddenly shot under. The child's body
was found directly beneath the spot
where the loaf sank.-New York Sun.

the ordinary ire-tube construction on

said to give much satisfaction, con-
suming less coal for the same amount
of work. Forty water-tubes traverse

tubes in the barrel is taken by a
single cylindrical flue, crossed diagon-
