1,400 tons Of coal into the hold of our

"The novelty Of this was the
woman and girl labor. The men did
the shoveling of the coal into the
baskets. These baskets were rounded
on the bottom and without handles.
AS soon as one of them was filled il
was picked up by a woman and
passed in q twinkling to the next
woman in line, and so on, till up the
steep steps of the deck the basket
would reach the hole in the side Of
the steamer. through which the coal
would be dumped into the hold. It

Inc robin that sings in the morning glow
song that is full of glee
May be fretting some sad soul here below
with the song that is sweet to me,
Ihe rolsterer who. care free, last night
went reveling late and long,
May rail- at the robin that gives delight
To me with his matin song.
But little, l think, does the robin care
For the hate of one who lies
with heavy heart on his bed up there
And rubs at his bloodshot eyes,
Ana why should you. as you strive away,
Be chilled by the sneerihg few?
We can't please all with the things we say
Or the things that we sing or do.
