Proverbs

When the butter won't

proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give item SCOTS Emul-
sion,
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
mix OF pure cod liver OIL
With some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
tomaohs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste

For all weak and pale and

the American Federation of Labor, extends
the time, or unless the steamfitters' union
Is expelled from the Central Labor Union at
it's meeting next Monday evening, the
Gompers ultimatum will go into effect. it
is declared, and the charter of the Central
Labor Union will be revoked. The steam
filters may, it is added. obviate the neces-
sity for such stern action by in the mean
time merging it's organization into that of
the plumbers and gaSfitters and their help
ers, as is demanded by the federation.
The ultimatum of President Gompers be-
comes effective November 1, the day follow
ing the next meeting of the Central Labor
Union. It's terms are imperative-''EXpel the
steamfitters by November ! for disobeying
the injunction of the Federation of Labor
in national convention assembled or forfeit
your charter"
1t was generally expected that the Central
Labor Union at it's meeting last night would
take action in this matter, but at the close
of the session it was stated that only rou-
tine business was transacted.
Another matter of concern in local labor
circles which it was believed would be acted
upon last night was the proposed reorgani-
Zation of the Council of Allied Building
Trades connected with the central body.
1t was stated that the executive committee
would report at the meeting next Monday
in regard to certain changes said to be con-
templated in the allied council. Some of
the members believe the proposed changes
will result in the several carpenters unions
and others again affiliating with the CEN
trail body and the council.
Mr.. Gompers has not as yet replied to the
communication from the Central Labor
Union requesting him to extend the time of
his utimatum.

a rural drama by Ramsey Morris, teeming
with thrilling melodramatic situations and
incidents, while running though the entire
story is a strain of wholesome and homely
sentiment. A young man becomes involved
in troubles and seeks to escape them by
an over-indulgence in strong drink. A
young woman, imbued with the principles
of true Christianity, undertakes the task of
reforming him, and by persistent sympathy
and devotion succeeds in winning the 'lost
sheep" back to the fold. Notwithstanding
that some of the performers adopted meth

The cast is very large one. and, an I'M
usual feature, nearly all have something Of
Importance to do with the action: In
work like this great one OF the RUSSIAN
novelist much is lost by dramatiZation. The
reader of the novel sees the slow processes
by which is evolved the story OF man
perfidy and desertion of woman, ms rec
ognition of the wrong he has done her, MS

human soul from the depths of degradation.
All this is placed before the eyes and

bring out the story which crate on the ear
