ALL LEARNING.

There are S0,000,OO0 wage earners in
America. After twenty-five years of
aggressive organizing, only 100000
have Joined labor unions, but the
walking delegate tries to make the
busy merchant, who hasn't time to
look the matter up, believe that every
wage Garner in his town Is member
of a union and will take his trade
away from the merchant unless he
puts q union sign In his window. But
It does not work any more; the people
are all learning that not to exceed 8
per cent of the wage earners In any
town in America belong to unions, and
not five per cent Of the union mem.

The teller of the story passed
long, cold winter at Cape Nome. He

One night, when all were asleep
the man in question was awakened
by light patting on his face The
cold was intense, and not caring tc
move unless 1t was necessary, he lay
still. Again the light touches on his
cheek. He put up his hand, and his
fingers closed on tiny mouse tan
gled in the meshes of his beard. A
companion, reused by the involuntary
exclamation, lighted candle and in

Invention Being Exploited In Various
European Countries.
Emitted States Consul Atwell writes
from Roubaix, France!
"Justin Muller read a paper recent
~ before Sthe industrial Society OF
Mulhouse on certain printed goods,
the warp Of which Is composed Of
cotton and the wool of thread made
from wood pulp. These goods were
introduced almost four years ago. At
I the outset sheets of wood-pulp paper
we're cut into finest shreds and twist
ed into thread by machines made for
the purpose. Lately the paper pro-
cess has been abandoned, and wood
pulp is passed directly over grooved
metal sheets, forming very thin rib
bons, which pass in turn over
machine that twists them into very
regular thread of any desired length.
"These threads of wood fibre are
known as xyloline, sllvaline, and
licelia, and are numbered like any
others. The dynamo-metric resi6-
lance of this thread in dry state,
taking 100 as the resistance Of jute
threads, is equal to about 55; that of
cotton thread In dry state is 1856.
The difference is widely in favor Of
jute and cotton, but 1t is thought that
improvements may increase the re-
sistance Of the wood pulp thread AS
1t is to be used only in mixed goods
great resistance Is not Of essential
Importance.
"Dishcloths are made of this
thread, in connection with hemp, and
the mixture is washed, dyed, and
printed. While wet the wood pulp
thread softens. but RECEIVERS its re-
sistance in drying. There are already
manufactures for the production OF
wood fibre thread in Germany, Spain,
and Netherlands, and France will
shortly have factory. 1t is thought
that this thread may be used advan-
tageously In the manufacture Of pas
sementerie, and that 1t may replace
jute and cotton in the composition Of
many articles"

Long Island windmills have the dis
tinction of starting a fashion in cot
tage architecture, as one can see at
South and East Hampton. Originally
an old mill was bought and a number
of rooms tackled on to it, the mill
forming the elevated and picturesque
portion of the whole But windmiIls
are not built for residence, not in this
country at least, and neither wind nor
rain has much respect for it's thin
walls. The next step was to build
cottage with a windmill tower as an
integral part, and SO it happens that
the windmill has become the founda-
ton for sty1e-limited, it is true, to
villas few and far between, but yet in
sufficient number to attract attention
from those who are observant.
WHAT Is more interesting, perhaps,
to architect and archaeologist is the
fact that in these windmills we have
a survival of one of the most primi-
tive styles of architecture in Europe,
the circular hut and tower to which
belong such far-apart buildings as the
Pantheon at Rome, the tomb of Theo-
doric at Ravenna, the round towers
and beehive huts of Ireland, the snow
igloos of the Eskimos. IN the twelfth
century, when windmills are first
heard of, the wood and waffle round
house and tower were still common
in Western Europe 1t was easy to
find among country people builders of
such simple structure-one that
could be rotated to make the vans
catch the breeze at the necessary an
gle, yet strong enough to stand the
jar of the wings These quaint struc-
lures and the Old Stone Mill at New
port are almost the sole examples in
America of an archaic style of build
ing, which has nearly ceased to ex-
list in Europe

ed Don QuixOte de la Mancha 1eveled
his spear. Sa is in fact are these cam
vas wind-catchers which the long fans
carry stretched along their frames,
and the principle of their action is
close to that of sails. All this end
of Long Island has been for two CEN
turtles the home of whalers and men
brought up in sailboats- Small won
der, therefore, that the talent to make
the wind work for them in other ways
has always existed here. If the gale
freshens the captain of the station
airy conical ship must reef, and if the
wind falls light the windmill also gets
into the doldrums, the vans move
slower and slower, and the captain
scratches wood and whistles for a
breeze
When Eastern Long Island was first
occupied it was by Kentishmen and
others who swarmed of from the Eng
lish hive in Connecticut, but at that
date, 1910 to 1850, there were no wind
mills among the early settlers. Grain
was pounded in the most primitive
fashion in stone or wooden mortars-
Then came the turn of mills turned
by cattle like coffee mills on a gigan-
tic scale, then the use of water power
near Southampton, where the name of
the pleasant summer colony of Water
mill testifies that even in this fat
country there was enough fall to the
land to operate a dripping water
wheel, and finally the windmill that
seems SO odd and old. Doubtless the
windmill for grinding corn was per-
fected in Holland through the need of
mills to pump water, a need unknown
over here; wherefore the slowness of
its introduction.
Southampton was settled first, and
some years later, Maidstone which
is now East Hampton. From East
Hampton as a center Amagansett, to
the east, and Wainscott, to the west,
were formed, hamlets rather than vii
lagos. 1t is East Hampton which re-
tains most windmills, no less than
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1905-09-30
The Business Lie.

Our age is great in some ways; it
is an age of invention, but, says the
Rev. F. r. Keighley of Windsor, it is
also an age of invention for the lie of
covetousness and self-interest. How
numerous in our time have been the
charges for fraudulent advertisement?
How many thousands more of those
falsehoods have gone undetected? Our
law courts tell us that this kind of lie
stops at nothing; it poisons food, it
adulterates army stores, it robs with
out conjunction the very poorest.
Many men, who would be ashamed to
lie personally, excuse this kind of lie !;
they say, 1T is only a business lie''-
only "a trick of the trade" But what
is business lie when you come to
analyze it? 1t is just a lie told to
make money, and of all liars the liar
for money is the most contemplate.
1 say that there is no lie so diShonor-
able and dishonoring as the business
lie,' and there is no chance of the bet
terment of our social and commercial
life until the lie of selfinterest gives
way to Christian honesty and honor.
