Mothers ebay Off,"

The housemaid stout we do without
On Saturday and Monday.
But when, oh when, We gods of toll,
Relentless, deign to say,
The mother of the family
When comes her holiday?
The hardest worker of them all,
When dons she a best gown,
A trip to take to see the shops
Or visits friends in town?
To hear the news and freshen up
Perhaps, to see a play!
When, when does such a thing occur
Lares, penates, say!
Now, reading the above reminds
me of a real Sunshine boy l heard
of the other day. The boys in the
neighborhood were all planning some
fun in the snow, by moonlight after
supper. One of them spoke: Cali
of us have supper at six, SO we'll all
have lots of time to get here if we
meet at quarter to even. All the
boys shouted approval to this ar
rangement excepting one, who said:
Il can't come till half past seven;
have to wash the supper dishes and
straighten up the ROOM" At that
all the other boys gave a derisive
laugh and shout. "A boy wash dish
es! Who ever heard of such a
thing?"
Il have" said the dish-washer
quietly. Il know of three boys in
the big hotel who wash dishes three
times a day"
"Oh-but they are paid for it,"
well, do you mean to say that
you would do for pay what you
wouldn't do to help your sick moth
erg"
These boys were all good boys,
as boys go, and they were silenced if
not convinced.
is it not strange that not only |
among boys, but among boys moth
ers, there should be a feeling that to
help around the house is good for a
girl but belittles a boy?
Many a smart boy wants to help
his mothers, but does not know how
beyond bringing in wood oor water
or going an errand. There is moth
ing hat will injure him in knowing
how to wash dishes, make beds, sweep,
set the table or cook a plain meal
of victuals. Indeed, all these are ac-
complishments hat may prove val
liable in after life.
In this strenuous life a young man |
may save himself from beggary
some time by learning how to cook.
To claim that these things are girls
work is nonsense. There are men who
make very fine livings by sewing,
cooking, washing and ironing. 1t is
a positive harm to a boys moral char
acter to allow him to be idle while
his ~overworked mother is staggering
under her house hold burdens and
savors too much of the life and
thought of the savage.

dice but She Thwarted
His Plans.

Jacksonville, Ind, July 49,
Through the efforts OF his sister, who
hustled around and secured the sigma
lures OF twenty-five names to re-
monstrance which had almost been
abandoned as a failure, Edgar Biggs
of Henryvlle was defeated in his ap-
plication for license to sell liquor in
Monroe township, this county.
Henryville has long been q local op-
ton town, and as fast as applications
for license would be made they were
met and turned down nv blanket

1uence at Henryvllie aES he had been
working quietly, inducing signers of
the remonstrance to withdraw their
names, and he succeeded so we'll that
having enough to make 1t effective.
Miss Bertha Biggs, his sister, hear
ing of the brothers success, deter.
mined to thwart him, not because of
any ill-feeling existing between them,
but because she is an exponent of the
white ribbon movement and did not
wish to have it said that her brother
was operating a saloon.
She took the directive remon-
STRANGE, made a thorough canvass of
the township and by her persuasive
powers succeeded in adding two more
than the required number of names to
make the paper effective.

Packers Strike Negotiations
Halted by Reinstate-
mcnt Question.
BOTH SIDES ARE FIRM
Packers Say They Will Not Recede
From Position Maintained In
Last Weeks Confab.
Strikers Declare They Have Conced-
ed Every Point They Are
Going To.

Chicago, July 1S.-There is little il
any change in the situation Of the
meat packers strike today. With
Michael Donnelly the strikers lead
er, in st. Louis looking after that end
of the difficulty, there has been no
tiations which lasted through three
days last week and were terminated
Saturday night without results.
Whether another attempt to reach an
adjustment of the controversy by ar
bitration will be made is problemati-
cal, as the packers, believing they
had the better of the argument in last
weeks conferences, are little inclined
to offer any concessions to the strik-
ers. One thing is certain, the pack
ers say, they will not recede from the
position they assumed in last week S
conferences and that the strikers will
have to conform to the employers ul-
timatum before any further peace
plans looking to a settlement by arbi-
the packers determination to stand
firm is the fact that they have stead
lily increased their working forces at
the plants by the employment of out
side workmen, until today it is said
that things are in almost normal con-
dition at several of the plants. Under
these conditions the packers have as.
sumed a more Independent attitude
and are more determined than ever
that they and not the strikers shall
dictate the terms on which the con
troversy shall be arbitrated. AS the
strikers declare that they conceded ev
cry point possible in last weeks nego
tiations, there Is little likelihood that
any further conferences, for the pres
ent at least, would amount to much
toward a satisfactory settlement OF
the strike.
The sticking point to the whole
question of arbitration is the reinstate
ment of the strikers.
