to cut the cuticlc. 1t is the common
practice with many of the man0curists
to cut the cuticle until the blood comes,
This should never be done unless made
necessary by some deformity of the
finger or of the nail. 1t will be months
and perhaps years before the skin will
grow again strong and firm about the
nail to say nothing of the temporary
pain, soreness and Inconvenience.
II is as il n strong cord We're drawn
about the edges OF the skin and the thin
membrane drawn close about the base

skin will fray and become ragged. little
ends will be constantly pricking up and
when they are cut off, the blood will
come through. the nails will look untidy
and not hing will remedy this but a reg
ular and frequent attendance at the
parlors of the manacurist, fact which
he knew long ago. Ii means business
to him, hut it means an ever present
trouble for you, so keep the cuticlc on
your finger nails whole.
For this reason. if for no other, It i
well to know something of the mana
curist's art before you place yourself
within reach of his scissors. And the
process is an art, there is no question
about it.

sight OF the common interest of own
ers and workers, has emphasized their
conflicting claims, embittered the
struggle and precipitated strikes. The
strike is its own weapon; a weapon as
dangerous to those who WELD it and
to the public and t o the prosperity OF
the nation as to the employers against
whom 1t is drawn.
1T Is a chance whether the strikers
win or lose; but whether they win or
lose they and their families suffer SER
ious physical hardship and moral in
jury. The strike is not an appeal to
reason and justice, but to strength and
endurance, and hence 1t easily issues
in acts Of lawlessness and violence. 1t
Is at the best a hazard, and when it is
associated with crime 1t does harm to
the cause of labor by alternating public
sympathy.
1T is difficult to conduct a strike
successfully without infringing on
the right to work. which is fundamental
the rigt to work. which Is fundamental.
1t is probable thai as labor becomes
more thoroughly organized the evils OF
unionism may grow less, and it's be
%neficent action will become greater.
"Laborers also have duties as well
as rights. and one of their first duties
is to respect the rights of all men
whether capitalists or not. The trade
unions as they become stronger must
strive in all earnestness, not merely to
secure their members a living wage
and to protect them from wrong, but
to educate and make them agents OF
moral not less than of material pro
gress.
"As the professions aim to exclude
or at least put a mark of re%probatior
on their unworthy members, so organ
lied labor, we may hope, will gain in
sight into the fact that the true vel
fare of working men as of all men and
peoples, depends chiefly on the firm
ness with which they upbuild charac
ter. The only prosperity is that which
ennobles man, and the best wealth is

them feeding in a vast park which is
surrounded by a wall about two feet
six inches high.
In consequence of the escape Of
many giddy snails, a sort of ledge was
put on the top. projecting an inch OF

crawling up the straight wall would
meet with an obstacle. Still the slim
creatures managed to get away, and
were found securing the open country
with all the joyous abandon of &C

After patient research. and this Is
the Fart of the story which is to be
