Americans in English Eyes.

From the London News.
To an immense mass of the English peo-
pie the American is still thin, sallow,
fidgety person with a goatee beard and a
nasal accent. Many Englishmen have a
fixed idea that the American workman is
overworked, underpaid, unprotected by
trade unions and given to weak concessions
in the matter of machinery. This imaginary
figure is the slave of the trusts. the VIC
tim of dear food and undermined by a
besetting ambition to become President of
the United States. 1t is pretty picture.
but the report of the commission of En-
glish trade unionists will make short work
of 1t. These English workmen. moving
about through the workshops have seen
the American workman as he is.
They have found that he is not more
hustled" than his English brother and
certainly not less independent. They have
realized that amazing fact of equality
which strikes every traveller I'm the face
when he lands in New York. 1t is an
atmosphere which charges everything
When every workman can approach his
employer directly with his grievance with
out fear of dismissal, then the element or
trade unienism dwindles in Importance.
When workmen are encouraged to invent
and learn by experience the superiority OF
brain over muscle. then their hatred or
machinery disappears. In country where

THE SONG SPARROW.

is brown of back wings and head, like the
English sparrow but is to be identified
readily by the speckled breast, which has
single black spot low down in the center.
The song sparrow is seldom seen upon
| trees and very rarely high up. 1t perches
generally upon the ground or upon some
low bush or dead tree top. When dis

other thick cover, flirting its tail as it goes,
and once there sets up Immediately rant

The streets of Mayfair are being appro-

tea palaces. The time is approaching when
the motor car will be in common USE and
the majority of those who now have car
riages will have cars and will live in the
suburbs, coming swiftly into town for BUSH
ness, to shop. to visit the clubs the exhi-

Mayfair will be a business district, much

CHICAGO STRIKE HAS ENDED
EXECUTIVE BOARD OF THE UNION
AND COMPANY AGREE,
Traffic Has Started Again-Strikers
Get Places Back-Wage Scale
Based on Outside Of Town Scales
City to Go Into Electric Light Bust
ess-Fignt the Big Trust.

Chicago, Nov. 27.-The strike OF
the employees of the Chicago City rail
way was settled at conference be-
tween the mayor, the aldermanic
peace committee, President Hamilton
and L. r. Bliss, counsel for the com
pany, and the executive board Of the
local union of the strikers. The basis
on which the settlement was reached
is complete victory for the company
as far as the original demands Of the
men are concerned.
The only important concession by
the company was an agreement to
reinstate all the strikers. including
the outside unions who went out in
sympathy with the car men, with the
exception of those who resorted to VIC
lence during the trouble.
The arbitration of the wage scale
Is to be according to the wages paid
outside of Chicago and not on the
basis of the local street railway. These
are the two points that have been
the stumbling block to a peaceable
adjustment of the strike for the past
week. The company has insisted that
it pays higher wages than any SINH
lar corporation in the country. The
men were fearful that the arbitration
on the scale paid in other cities would
decrease their wages and they fought
stubbornly for their point.
To Fight Monopoly.
Mayor Harrison has declared that
the city would enter the electric light
ing field at once in competition with
the gas trust and the Chicago Edison
and its subsidiary companies.

WHY IT SUCCEEDS
Because It's for One Thing Only, and
 Phoenix Is Learning This

Nothing can be good for everything.
 Doing one thing we'll brings success.
 Doan's Kidney Pills do one thing only.
 They're for sick kidneys.
 They cure backache, every kidney i'll.
 Here is Phoenix evidence to prove it.
 L. $. Dunbar. proprietor of the fruit and cigar store. 8 North First avenue, residence 576 North Seventh avenue. says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are not a new remedy to me. We first used them in orr family several years ago when living in Marietta, Ohio, where they are considered a household necessity. They are the finest remedy for backache or any symptoms of irritated or weakened kidneys on the market. Shortly after moving here some three years ago symptoms of a recurrence of kidn+y trouble in our family became evident. and We tried to get Doan's Kidney Pills at several drug stores. They knew nothing about them and we sent to our druggist. MT. Styer of Marietta for a supply. Noticing them advertised in Phoenix last winter when we required them we procured them at the Brisley Drug Co.'s store. They are necessity in our household, particularly so whe n compelled to drink the water in Phoe- nix. On every occasion when their use Is required they have never failed to bring prompt relief"
