SCHOOL TEACHERS STRIKE.
The Question That is Now Agitating
Chicago.
From the World Today.

From the World Today.
Several answers have been made to this
question. Miss Haley says: Under no
circumstances do 1 consider a strike of
teachers either necessary or justifiable. nor
do l say this in a spirit of criticism of labor
unions or their methods. Should the board
of education demand the withdrawal OF
teachers from the Chicago Federation OF
Labor we would meet that emergency when
confronted with it, cannot now say how
Miss Haley limited to me that the teachers,
in her belief, would. leave the settlement OF
their quarrels to popular sympathy and TO
the ranks of organized labor. Some of the
members of the federation do not take MISS
Haley's view A number said TO me lew
weeks ago: Would L withdraw from the
Federation of Labor? No. Would L JOIN
in a strike? l would If it were necessary"
1t is a moral certainty that the teachers
would not withdraw from the labor union.
Certain members of the board OF educAuon
do not regard strike of the teachers as
an improbable occurrence. Neither GO some
of the labor leaders. one of them said the
other day that should the engineers or
janitors union cah strike the teachers
union would be expected to lend all possible
assistance
What A strike of the teachers wouli mean

standardizing in Mechanics.

From the Boston Globe.
1t has long been the boast of American
manufacturers that we are able to excel
other nations in the matter Of standardiz-
ing, so that, If for example, watch OF
American make needed repairs, missing
part can be supplied all ready to be liz
serted without any fitting to the particular
watch, since watches are made by ma
chinery by the Thousand, with all the parts
exactly alike while in the foreign watch
made by hand each part must be fitted by
hand work. But we have allowed England
TO be the first to apply this system to war
ships Under the new naval program each
ship will be an exact duplicate of all others
of that class, and all parts of the ma
chinery are made to be interchangeable. If
we are to go on building battleships by the
half dozen and cruisers and torpedo boats
to match, perhaps we may apply to them
our own American system of interchange
ability.

Fhe Way tho baby should BE Care
fully Clesnsed Every Day.
An infant should be bathed once n
day all over, and the grolns and but
tocks should be sponged as often as Is
necessary.
The temperature OF an infants bath
should invariably be tested with bath
thermometer. The hand is never n safe
Judge. One hundred degrees +. is the
proper temperature for a tiny baby's
bath. When three months old a tenn
perature of % degrees Is preferable.
A bath should never be too hot. The
temperature Of the room in which baby
is to be bathed should be about 20 de-
grees f., and there should be no drafts.
The infant should be undressed quick
ly and laid on nurses or mothers lap
on a double bath blanket and soaped
all over with piece of flannel, special
care being exercised to get between
the folds of skin where secretlons are
apt to accumulate. After soaping the
infant Is placed in the bath and the
soap quickly washed off. This should
not require more than one or two min
utes, though the time may be lengthen-
ed for the baby to remain in the water
as it grows older. After bathing the
baby should be dried with a soft towel
and quickly and comfortably dressed.
After this operation the baby is usual
ly ready for breakfast and then nap.
Infants should be kept out of doors as
much as possible in the daytime, and

[noNTINUEn FROM LAST wEEK. IT

(OONTTNUED FROM LAST WEEK. J.
II was about the middle OF July. He
was sitting back idly in the clean
painted mill Office with the big square
desk and the three chairs. Through
the door he could see Collins perched
on high stool before tho shelf-lilxe
desk. From the open window came the
clear, musical note OF the circular saw,
the fresh, aromatic smell of new lum-
Der, the bracing air from Superior spar
king in the offing. He felt tired. In
rare moments such as these, when the
muscles of his striving relaxed, his
mind turned to the past Old sorrows
rose before him and looked at him with
their sad eyes. He wondered where
his sister was. She would be twenty
two years old now. A tenderness,
haunting, fearful, invaded his heart.
at such moments the hard shell of his
rough woods life seemed to rend apart.
He longed with great longing for
sympathy, for love.
The outer door, beyond the cage be-
hind which Collins and his shelf desk
were placed, flew open. Thorpe heard
a brief greeting, and Wallace Carpen-
ter stood before him.
'Why, Wallace, / didn't know you
were comingv' began Thorpe, and stop
ped. The boy, usually so fresh and
happily buoyant, looked ten years old
err Wrinkles had gathered between
his eyes. "Why, what's the matter|
cried Thorpe.
He rose and swiftly shut the door in

himself mechanically
Everything! Everythingw he said
In despair 1--WE been a fool. I've

So bitter was his tone that Thorpe
was startled. The lumberman sat
down on the other side of the desk.

THE GIRL THAT LAUGHS.
Not the GiggIer, but the Girl That
Laughs and Means 1t.

Laughs ana means IL.
Girls spend considerable time trying
to find out how to be popular. 1t is
natural that a girl should seek APP
proval and admiration. Her popularity
means a good time, boxes of candy,
theaters, dances, fowers-everyt thing
that the hearts of the young delight in.
The girl that is popular is the girl
who laughs-not the girl that shippers
and Fuckers or giggles, but the girl
that laughs and means it. The girl
that laughs can have candy and flow
ers and theaters every day in the week.
Men flock about her They adore
her. she laughs herself straight into
the hearts of beaus and admirers and
straight into all the good times that q
girl can dream of.
She laughs, but she is careful when
she laughs. She laughs with her beaus
but never at them. She laughs at
what they say when they say it, but
never afterward. She laughs at their
jokes, but never about them. She new
er laughs at any ones plumbers or mis-
fortunes.
Women forget to worry when they
hear the cheerful girls laugh. Old
men are warmed at the sound of it.
Young men listen and follow it, pay
court to it, marry it, for it is the laugh
that keeps the heart young, the laugh
that keeps the face bright.-Kansas

Managing Servants.

In the first place, don't find fault
that is, do not complain or whine or
nag. Do not say: "Mary, / don't see
why you can't remember. 1 am sure
I get tired Of telling you again and
again. Now, If were in your place"
ETC., whereupon Mary replies saucily,
and there is q scene from which you
depart incensed, yet humbly, lest Mary
leave then and there. Guard your tone.
Be firm and businesslike, but cheerful.

marks. 1T would please me to have
you do so and so'' or al think it would
