A suburban golf club has Japanese
steward named Ocka. He is an ex-
cellent cook and his neatness and good
taste are beyond question, but he has
a very slight knowledge of English,
and this sometimes causes him to
make ludicrous mistakes. A young
woman gave tea at the clubhouse
and sent for Ocka few days ahead of
time, so that all the details Of her
party might be perfected. She ar

said: Now Ocka, at the tea we must

Fl NEW SPECIES OF TRUST.

A new kind of trust is described by
Professor Clark of the University of
California in a letter to the San Fran
cisco Examiner, and, according to the
learned professor it is a formidable
industrial disease germ that gives the
consumer no chance at all. Its first
development, Professor Clark says, is
in the glass blowing trade, where
labor and capital, instead of fighting
each other senselessly have combined.
The public, Professor Clark asserts,
has to pay for glass whatever price the
employer and employe agree upon. and
their only trouble. when this sort of a
combine is formed, is to determine
what part of the enhanced price is to
fall to each.
The public rejoices in the rivalry of
producers in the sale of their wares,
expecting competition to produce low
prices. 1t deplores their combina-
ton, since it may lead to high prices.
But much more, according to Professor
Clark, must it deplore a trust which
embraces all the employers and all the
laborers in a given industry If they
harmonic, there is nothing to prevent
the exaction of high prices, so long as
a high tariff keeps out foreign COM
petition.
It is only the unwisdom of capital
that keeps it from reaping the biggest
kind of profits by agreeing to pay
labor any wages it asks. and then pass
ing the bill on to the consumer to pay.
Employers form combines and workers
form trade unions, each intent on con-
trolling the supply of their respective
commodity. They have only to go one
step further, as glassmakers may do
under cover of our protective tariff,
and form a comprehensive trust, and
their troubles will be ended, though
the same can not be said for the con-
sumner who pays for the fun.
Such trusts are practicable in trades
requiring much skill. and are bound to
multiply in proportion as the organ
ization of capital and labor is per-
fected. The only limit to prices un-
der such regime will be the tariff
rate. Ultimately, perhaps the con-
sumers, seeing both factors of produc-
ton against them, will organize too,
for self-protection. and make things
! lively for all opposing combines

Cinders In the Eye.

Persons travelling by railway are
subject to continued annoyance from
the flying cinders. On getting into the
eyes they are not only painful for the
moment, but are often the cause of
long suffering that ends in Il total loss
of sight A very simple and effective
cure is within the reach of every one
and would prevent much suffering and
expense were it generally known. 1t is
simply one or two grains of t1HNS"ed
These may be placed in the eye with
out injury or pain to that delicate or
gan, and shortly they begin to swell
and dissolve n glutinous substance that
covers the ball of the eye. enveloping
any foreign substance that may be in
it. The irritation of cutting the mem
brane is thus prevented, and the am
noyance may soon be washed out. y
