sucn misery and shut your mind
against it, not because you are hard
hearted, but because the mass of
Wretchedness is so vast that you feel
helpless to do anything adequate to-
ward it's relief
But you have no right to turn away
from it. 1t is your duty to think about
and do what you can to lessen this
mass of misery.
You can open your heart and put your
hand in your pocket. When you do that,
you feed some hungry child, bring hope
again to some agonized mothers breast
and save some man from desperation.
When you are face to face with dire
human distress, it is no time to philoso
phize about the failure of charity to
cure poverty, or about the pernicious
effects Of almsgiving.
Help the miserable first and philoso.

FLINT GLASS PRICE LIST
MANUFACTURERS HAVE AGREED
ON A SINGLE STANDARD.
Meeting Held I'm Washington on Tues
day Designed to Impart Stability
to Trade Conditions.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Nov. 20.-One of the
most important meetings that has taken
place in the flint bottle trade since the
organization of the manufacturers of that
ware held in Washington Tuesday
of this week. The result of the meeting
was a decision to make one universal
selling list for all blown ware and to put
1t into effect on Jan. Of the coming year.
The Importance of this action will be un-
derstood when it Is explained that up to
the present time the manufacturers in the
eastern part of the country have had an
individual price list and discounts, while
the Western men have had another list.
These did not agree, and there was often
trouble I'm the crossing Of each others ter
ritory, which was followed by price war
that demoralized prices for some time.
The new prices, it is said, will not vary
much from the list now in force except
where they have conf;tcted, and in these
cases the higher rates will be used.
The inroads the bottle blowing ma chine
Is making on the trade was discussed, and
the matter was finally referred to a COM
mittee to report at a future meeting on
ways and means to meet the competition.
The machine companies are not members of
the association.

Object to n Remoxnr.

PITTSBURG. Nov. 2.-Two locals of the
American Flint Glass Workers Union in
Pittsburg have taken the preliminary steps
to secure an injunction restraining the gen.
eral officers from removing the headquar-
ters Of the organization from Pittsburg to
Toledo. o., as has ben announced to take
place on Dec. /. The matter will be
brought before the court tomorrow or
Monday at the latest. The organization
has had its headquarters in Pittsburg al
most from the time IL was organized. Sew
eral efforts have been made by the gen.
eral officers to remove the headquarters to
a smaller town, but enough votes could not
be secured until within the past two
months. when 1t was announced that the
vote had favored Toledo. The Pittsburg
locals now claim that the vote on the re-
moval was taken Illegally.

WINDOW GLASS COMBINE
SELLING AGENCY WILL BE ESTAB-

Consolidation Of Interests That Prob.
ably VIII BE of Great Benefit
to Many Employees.

PITTSBURG, Nov. 20.-The details of the
big consolidation of window glass interests
of the country rapidly being worked
out, and 1t is expected a selling agency,
to be known the Manufacturers Win
dow Glass Company, will be doing business
on Dec. IL. The American Window Glass
Company and a number of other promi-
nent manufacturing concerns signed the
uniform scale to-day and preparations are
being made for an early resumption.
The majority of the skilled window glass
workers have been idle since the close of
the last fire on April is. They figure, how
ever, that they will not lose anything by
not going to work on Sept. at a reduction
of 33 1-3 per cent, as they are now assured
of steady employment fo- at least eight
months at an advance over last years
wages of about 2la per cent 1t is possible
to extend the fire couple of months longer
If the manufacturers can shut out the i'm
port of about 100000 boxes OF the small
sizes which come to this country annually
from France and Belgium. Ii this trade
can be captured the workers agree to ac-
cept a reduction of 25 per cent. in wages
for making the small sizes.
