Scarcity of Farm Laborers.

The suggestion for relieving the peo-
pie of Finland who are suffering from
famine by bringing large numbers OF
them into the United States, where they
can get employment readily as farm
!eborers, is not bad one. All over this
country farmers are complaining of
their inability to hire sufficient labor
ers. Labor has been Over-drawn from
the farms by the demands of factories
and railroad construction and; last
summer it was even said that the Kan
sas farmers were rounding up tramps
and making them work in the fields at
the muzzle of the gun. Now the Firms
are almost exclusively an agricultural
people they are moral, upright, hospit-
able and faithful, physically strong and
robust they are fairly well educated
and intelligent and make good citizens.
In their own land they are neither
happy nor comfortable. Could they not
be both here and be of very practical
assistance in the national development

Gladys and the Soldering Iron.

In certain charming romances de-
picting an ideal future, such as William
Morris News from Nowhere" and
Bellamy's Looking Backward" the
young woman is shown as an expert in
mechanical lines, as we'll as independ-
ent financially. She knows as much
as her brother OF the new and startling
inventions and can mend her automo-
bile or flying machine without waiting
for any man.
\ Post Dispatchs reader complains
that he can get no work for his son be
cause young women are now doing ali
sorts of mechanical work in factories.
Including soldering tin cans, painting
buggy wheels, etc.
So it appears we are working toward
the ideal state, when every woman Will
be her own mechanic. No one is sur
prised if a man shows aptitude as q
jack of all trades. He is expected to
be able to do odd jobs at mending his
own bicycle, or painting his own house
if he chooses. But woman doing such
things has been rara avis. She can
cook, but not tinker.
That Gladys has taken TO the solder
ing iron and paint brush is undoubted
ly hard on the young man of today
who must look around and learn to dc
something to which Gladys has not yet
turned her hand. She is still practi-
cally unknown in certain lines of indus
try. such as railroading, woodworking
steamboa ting and farming, though she
appears sporadically iH these callings
Her lack of nerve and her petticoat 5
make it difficult for her to Gust the men
everywhere.
But her newly-learned mechanic;.'
skill will serve the race in good stead
when matters get better adjusted
When everything is done by machinery
we may see her working alongside tht
man or independently, and the~result
will be n doubling of effectiveness. Sh+
may help to make his work more arts
tic She undoubtedly handles the
soldering iron with more grace than he
does.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

cold decks which had aided him in his
looting of the Caucasian. Inc govern
ment of the United Staten has found
him to be not less smiling ana also not
less cunning than he appeared to the
miners. His ways of eVadihS the ex-
clusion law and entering INTO sharp
competition with the American toilerS
are many and peculiar. Fer years he
depended on the bribery of the immi-
grafton inspectors, and when the cor
rupted officials were discharged the
Celestial was forced to devise his own
schemes
One of the methods by which numbers
Of Cinnamon were able to come in was
to take advantage OF the exposition
mania. To have Il Chinese village, o.
which the temporary residents shout
be freshly caught heather, was the am
bition of every exposition management
The government authorized the direc-
tors in every case to import 4 number
of Cinnamon with the condition that
they should be sent back home at the
end of ninety days. In almost every
instance these villagers would escape
and with the aid of their established
brothers scatter through the country
and fail to report themselves for ex-
porta ton.
The newest plan is as neat as posi-
BILE and shows a civilized cunning.
Photographic copies have been made of
genuine certificates such as are given
to Cinnamon who visit the yellow king
dom and return, and with these copies
immigrants have passed the inspectors
without exciting suspicion. Accident
has revealed this fraud, and the thrifty
politicians of the various ChinatoWns
in the different cities will have to in
vent something else. That they will be
equal to it there is no doubt. At least
5000 is surrendered to them by everv
Chinese immigrant they get through

grown rich in the business is evidence
Of the Illegal entry of many thousands

That Third Year


The second impo rtant
stage in a child's life is
reached about the third year
1t has begun to walk then
and there are greater de-
mands on its bones, muscles
and tissues. A great deal
depends upon proper nourish-
ment right at this time. The
utmost care is necessary in
the matter.'of feeding, particu-
larfy if the child has been
brought up on the bottle.
The majority of children
with ricketts, either are or
were bottle-fed, hence their
food should be reinforced by
something to make them less
liable to this distressing dis
ease. Years of experience
prove that SCOTS Emulsion
is the most effective food
medicine for children who
are of the rickety age.
The symptoms of this
disease manifest themselves
in the slow and imperfect
growth Of bone and muscle.
The teeth are delayed in APP
pearing and cause unusual
trouble. The bones of the
legs yield when walking and
bow-legs are the result. The
spine is weak and tends to
curvature. Tho bones of the
head are soft and the whole
framework of the body is
affected. Even prolonged
nursing will cause rickets as
well as breathing impure air,
unsanitary apartments and
improper care generally. But
in spite of these numerous
causes it is a simple matter to
avoid and curerickets. SCOTS
Emulsion is the easiest, most
effective remedy known. 1t
makes new bone, new flesh
and rich blood. 1t puts
children on the right path to
healthy growth and vigor. 1t
is always a reliable help.
These claims are not made of.hand.
We know from nearly thirty wears conta,t
with such cases that SCOTS Emulsion will
do just what We say il will do We viii be

II have just come from a little vaca-

of Virginia. I used to work ON farm
there in my boyhood days. Oh, If my
careful, economical father could only
see how they do farming these days! It
was during the civil war that worked
on my fathers farm. It contained $50
acres and $500 would have bought all
the vehicles, horses and farm tools on
it. We had couple Of horses, one
wagon, a harrow, a pillow and a cult
vator. We did all the cutting of grain
by hand. Some of the farmers had
those two-seated democrats that are
disappearing now, and think there
were one or two buggies in the neigh
borhood.
''Take farm Of that size to-day and
you'll find $4,000 or $4,000 worth of
buggies, wagons and tools on it. Then
there will be six or seven horses be-

with buggies and horses in order to in

A great statesman, one who had all
but touched the presidency, lay dying
within the walls of an old brick man
sion on the eastern side of the square
where had elected to sit, writes Al
fred Henry Lewis, in Everybody's

It was my first afternoon in the
square when a hand-organ began to
grind forth it's turgid strains before
the brick house. l looked and listened,
expecting with each moment that
someone would issue from the house
of doom and drive the dinmaker
away. Instead, bright black man,
evidently butler, came and stood on
the porch. An hour went by before
the repertory was exhausted; the1

RE ny should the freezing point be
marked 30 degrees and the boiling;
point 212 degrees on the Fahrenheit
thermometer scale? Most students
know that It's inventor divided, the
space between these points into $50:
degrees instead Of the simpler 100 DE-
sgrees used In the centigrade system,
but few understand how this number.
came to be chosen, says the Ameri-
can Inventor. "A writer thus explains
the matter: /. =:: s.:. 5z. sss
The thermometer was really invent
ed by Sir Isaac Newton, He started
his scale with the heat Of the human
body and used as his instrument q
glass tube filled with linseed oil. The
lowest figure on the scale was the
freezing point and the highest point
boiling water. The starting point Of
this scale, as mentioned, was the heat
Of the human body, which he called
by the round number IL. as the duo
decimal system was then in common
use. He divided the space between the
freezing point and the temperature Of
the body into IL points, and stated that
the boiling point of water would be-
about 80, as the temperature must be
nearly three times that Of the human
body. -
When Fahrenheit took up the sub
3ect few years later he used the New
ton instrument, but, finding the scale
not fine enough, divided each degree
into two parts, and SO made the meas
ure between the freezing and boiling
points "a parts instead Of II. Fahren-
heit then discovered he could obtain
lower degree of cold than freezing.
and, taking a mixture Of ice and salt
for a starting point, he counted "a
points up to body heat. BY this meas
urement he obtained 8 for the freez-
ing point and So for the boiling point
His scale now read: Zero; freezing,
8; body heat, a.. and boiling water,
So. It will be noticed that this scale
Is identically that of Newton's, only
starting lower and having the numbers
doubled. -
It was with this scale which Fahren-
heit worked for long time. but final
ly finding the temperature divisions
still too large, he divided each degree
into four. parts. Multiplying the num-
bers just given by four, the thermom-
eter scale now in use results:
The chance choice of Newton of tho
figure IL to represent the body heat
determined the present thermometer
scale, even as the yard, feet and inches
measures originally came from meas
ures> Of parts of the human body, and
as the width of the railroad carriage
was determined by the track, which,
in turn, was determined by the width
between the cart wheels necessary to
bear a load which could comfortably
be drawn by a mule.
