METHODS OF TRADES UNIONS
President Eliot of Harvard Again
 Attacks Trades Unions.
Address Delivered Before the soc.al Science Committee, n Harvard
 student Club.

Cambridge, Mass, May 4.-Methods of modern trade unions have again been attacked and those of employers strongly commended by Dr. Charles w. Elliot, president of Harvard uni versity, in an address delivered be- fore the social science committee. a Harvard student organization. Tn the audience were several prominent la bor leaders.
 The actual industrial organization in the United States" said President Eliot, lis in large measure a dual or ganization for combat Within the last two years this industrial combat has become more intense though less violent through the firm organization of many associations of employers and now, unlike ordinary warfare, threat ems to be incessant, the combatants agreeing to truces but never making peace. It's evils are pervasive, and always at ones very door
 This condition of combat ought to prove transitional and temporary for real public happiness cannot possibly grow out of it.
 Solid associations of employers, which, for purposes of combat. must act as units under the direction of one man, or of small group of men, abri3ge liberty-the liberty of each individual employer to utilize his own special advantages in competing with other men who are in the same bus;- ness.
 The habitual effort of trade unions to create a monopoly in labor, each in its trade, is hostile effort against the community as a whole; for they seek by this means their own pecu- niary benefit at the expense of the rest of the community.
 The boycott is a method of com bat which is eminently a method of ill-will It is a gross interference with a just industrial liberty.
 AS they have grown powerful the unions have themselves become ex- elusive and oppressive, and their former altruistic spirit has been cor rupted by class selfishness. The plain fact is that the prescription of non union men, the strike in sympathy or iG support and the boycott are weap- ons which angels and saints could not use without being demoralized"

Italy's Distinction.

In invention. scholarship, scientific research and large enterprise. and in na- tional pride (without whicH no country can claim the respect of foreigners1. Italy has an enyiable distinction. II honors its intellectual men intelligently not by an ignorant notoriety, and money does not take precedence of mind. If it's plastic art has suffered commercial eclipse, Italy is not unique in this ex- perience, while in dramatic art it still leads the world with Tommaso Salvini and Eleonora Duse. In music and litera- ture there is much activity and far from complaisant public opinion on-Cen- tury.

Whence the Spots on Fur of Animals

Although We are told that the leopard cannot change his spots. tits certain that the markings on the fur of some animals do change. Especially is this true where the anmal has distinctive winter coat This change has been studied by Bar rett Hamilton, British naturalist. who is of opinion that whitening of the fur generally accompanies development of fatty tissue. which is manifestation of insufficient oxidation, and hence of atrophy, which shows itself in whiten- ing of the hair. In some animals-man. for ins, anee-this atrophy is manifested by badness That fat men are often bald is thus something more than a CO., cidence.-Success.

Hints for Advertisers

Run Your advertising with the same
common sense that you do the rest of
your business and there will be no
guesswork about it. 1t will pay every
time and always, but do not buy space
on billboards: do not buy little tin
signs to tack up on back fences: do
not hire some perambulating painter
to disfgure the farmers fences with
your name and address. There is not
one time in ten thousand that you can
tell absolutely whether this kind of
advertising pays or not. The chances
are one hundred to one that it does
not.
Put your hopes in the newspaper.
Talk about some certain thing-and
then get ready for customers. If it is
a good thing at the right price, ard
you have told about it plainly and
forcibly, you will sell it sure. =
Charles Austin Bates.

I'VE BEEN THINKING TO-DAY.

I've been thinking to- day of loved ones.
In far away land that know.
Which is lovely in Springtime and Summer
But in Winter is buried in snow.
/ remember its springs and its brooklets.
Its hilltops, its valleys and plain
Where gaily roamed in my boyhood
And sometime may visit again.
But many, all, many dear loved ones.
In that far away land that knew.
Have left this bright world forever
Forever have babe 1t adieu.
But sometime know i will find them.
All i'm those mansions fair
Which God has prepared for his children
With never missing one there.

He Told The Truth.

a Missouri paper announced that
for just one issue it would tell the
truth, Here are some of the items
from that Issue
81 ohm Bonnin, the LATEST merch a Mt
in town, made trip to Belleview yes
terday"
"John Doyne, our groceryman, is
doing poor business. His store is
dusty, dirty and noxiously oderifer-
Gus. How can he expect to do much?"
''Rev. Styx preached Sunday night
on Charity The sermon was. punk.
If the reverend gentleman would live
up little closer to what he breaches
he'd have a better congregation"
"Dave Sonker died last Saturday
at his home in this place. The doctor
gave it out as heart failure: the fact
is he was drunk and whiskey is what
killed him. His home was rented
shack on Roudy street,
Married Sylvia Rhodes and
James Canadian last Saturday even
ing in the Baptist parsonage. The
bride is very ordinary town girl,
who doesn't know any more than a
rabbit about cooking and who
never helped her mother three days in
her life. She is not a beauty by any
means and has a gait like fat duck.
The groom is we'll known here as an
up-tO-date loafer. He has been living
off the old folks all his life and does
not amount to shucks. They will
have a hard live while they live to-
gether and the News has no cougratu-
lations to offer, for we don't believe
any good can come from such a
| uniou.o
The issue in which the Missouri
editor told the truth was the last he
ever made. Now, in the springtime,
when the dew sparkles like diamonds
in the tender grass, where sweet
i throated birds make melody all the
day, subscribers to this paper while il
was published drive out into the
country short way to catch Q
glimpse of q piece of black skin which
hangs suspended from barbed wire
/ fence. 1t is all that remains of the
once manly form of the Missouri ed
itor who told the truth for once ~

..tiorrible wreck with Bit Of Fun

Hutchinson Gazette, Feb. 9.
2. There was wreck out on the Kins-
ley branch last Wednesday. 1t &C.
CURED in the vicinity of kinsley, but
no lives were lost and the destruction
of property was not very great, but
it is said that certain man aunihil-
ated considerable of the kings EGG
lish, which, together with a busted
wagon, constituted the principal loss
1t seems that farmer was driving
across the railroad track at a point
where a hedge fence hid the view of
the track i'm the direction from which
the branch passenger, sometimes des-
ignated as the Sand Burr Express,
was coming. The farmer was trailing
another wagon behind the one in
which he was driving, and before the
trailer had crossed the track the Sand
Burr Express had picked it up on the
cow-catcher of the engine. TIE wagon
was given ride of about half mile
before the train could be stopped and
backed up to the crossing, where the
wagon was unloaded and turned over
to it's owner, a Mr.. Nichols. 1t was
somewhat the worse for the ride, but
the wreck was not complete by any
means

Missionary Society Meeting.

Too late for last week.
The Woman's Home Missionary So
ciety was again given rare treat last
Thursday afternoon at the Methodist
Episcopal parsonage by Sister Cor
bin, field deaconess for this district.
The rooms were filled with friends of
the society and the afternoon was in
deed one pro6tably spent. 1t will be
remembered as one of the bright spots
in our lives. AS she carried us with
her and gave us glimse of the work
she has been doing,in the slums or
Philadelphia there came over us
wave of thankfulness that our lives
had been cast in pleasant places and
that we were blessed with the comforts
of life. Yet as we listened to the vivid
descriptions of the sorrow and heart
aches, the question came to US, Why
has God been so kind Are we more
worthy than they? And as she car
ried US farther on, and showed US the
thankful hearts and the words OF
thanks that came from starving lips,
for little favors-favors that we are
receiving daily without one thought OF
gratitude-Our hearts were touched,
and we offered prayer to our Heav-
emily Father-a prayer for forgiveness
and help, that we mipht be more
thankful in the future and more will
ing to give Sour time and means to-
ward helping those who are less for
tunate than we. And then as she told
us of the boys-her boys she called
them-two thousand gathered from
the darkest and vilest parts of Phila-
delphia. we could hardly grasp all it
meant. Precious souls for the Master.
Oh the boys! How much they need
mothering in this world of sin
The look of sympathy, the gentle word
Spoken so low that only the angels heard;
The secret art of pure self-sacrifce,
Unseen by man, but marsed by angels eyes
These are not lost.
How many of our boys are going
astray, starving for love. Mothers
are too busy to stop to love their
boys. And so they are left to find
comfort in cold world. We thank
God for the deaconesses with their
big hearts and willing hands.
In the evening Miss Corbin talked
to us of the emigrant work boing done
by the deaconesses at Ellis Island
among the girls who come to this
country. 1t was all so sad. And as
she told us how the deaconesses had
almost to fight to save the girls from
falling into the hands of men who
came in all kinds of DISCUSSES to hire
them, but who in reality only wanted
to drag them down to lives of shame,
we could scarcely realize that such
things could be in Christian land.
The sacred music of a tender strain,
Wrung from poets heart by grief or paiu
And chanted timidly vii h doubt and fear
To busy crowds who scarcely pause to hear
1t is not lost.
The kindly plans devised for others good,
80 seldom guessed, so little understood,
The quiet steadfast love that strove to win
Some wanderer from the woful way of sin
They are not lost.
