A Yonnr Anntnminf.

Some days ago two little fellows Of
seven and eight years heard older peo'
pie speaking of skeletons. The seven
year-old boy listened intently to the
conversation, when the elder boy with
an air of superior knowledge said
abruptly:
"You don't know what a skeleton Is,
and do"

GOMPERS ANSWERS HILLS.
The Reverend Gentleman Evidently
ISN'T Up on the Labor Question.


Rev. DR.. Hills said recently:
"In the long run there is no way to
increase the wage save as we increase
the intelligence. At will we can double
our wages as nation. The method
is simple-double the quantity and
quality of the work we do. We are
investing the hand in the spade when
we ought to invest the brain. A hand
and spade earn 81 day; little intel
lect and spade earn $1.50 per day"
In one sense this is u platitude; in
another 1t is not true. Labor may in
crease its product without getting any
increase of pay, as for example when
the employers keep the increase and
force labor to live at the old rate. To
secure its fair, rightful share labor
must be able to compel by economic
means an equitable division of the
product
Has DR.. Hills ever heard of strikes
for more pay? Is he innocent enough
to suppose that all employers are be-
nevolent by nature and anxious to
treat the workers justly by voluntarily
increasing their wages or, better STILL
by reducing their hours of labor? What
a mockery it is 10 tell workmen striv-
ing to obtain the proper reward for
their labor that the way to increase
wages is to increase the product! What
an answer to a demand for fairness
under existing conditionsl
From man who is so unjust and ir-
rational in his treatment of union la
Dor frantic appeals in behalf of non
union labor are not very impressive
From such champions as DIR. Hills the
'free" laborer may well pray to be de-
livered When the free" laborers in
sheer desperation strike against the
aggression of their employers, the first
to whom they appeal for protection and
advice-and get it-are the reviled
trade unions.
Strange, is it not? But then all stu
dents and observers know that non
unionists instinctively feel that trade
unions make the workers truly free

Pliny said the crocodiles skin 'will
abide any injury and not be pierced" 3"
That may have been true in his day,
but it is not true now. The bullet of a
heavy modern rifle will pierce the skin
anywhere unless it strikes in a slant
ing direction. The crocodile Is not as
a rule hard to kill, provided one can
get good shot at it, but that is Just
the trouble. 1t has not the marvellous
vitality of the shark, which will some
times struggle furiously for an hour,
although covered with apparently NOR
tai wounds.-Chicago News.

HanIon's New Catcher.

Manager Ned Hanlon of Brooklyn
claims that Jacklitsch is one of the
best catchers in the business. He
played with the Philadelphia club Of
the National league for two seasons.
Hanlon signed him last February.
Jacklitsch will surely strengthen the
Superbas in the catching department,
as he is great hitter, fine thrower
to bases and a good base runner. He
has started the season in splendid
shape and is improving rapidly as the

Do You Enjoy
What You Eat Z?

You can eat whatever and whenever you
like If you take Kodol. BY the use Of this
remedy disordered digestion and diseased
stomachs are so completely restored to
health, and the full performance of their
functions naturally, that such foods as would
tie one into a doube-bow-knot are eaten
without even "rumbling" and with posi-
tive pleasure and enjoyment. And what is
more these foods are assimilated and
transformed into the kind of nutriment that
is appropriated by the blood and tissues.
Kodol is the only digestant or combination
of digestants that will digest all classes of
food. In addition to this fact, 1t contains, in
assimilative form, the greatest known tonic
and reconstructive properties.
Kodol cures indigestion, dyspepsia and all
disorders arising therefrom.
