American workinRmnn In the Emitted
states has no concern whatever in the
question as to whether the rough work

aliens In any event. Is done by aliens
from one country with a black skin

with yellow skim Our business is
to dig the canal as efficiently and as
quickly as possible: provided ALWAYS
that nothing is done that Is inhunane

workmen- Having in view this prin-
ciple. | have arranged to try several
thousand Chinese h,borsrs. This is de-
sirablc both because we must try to
find out what laborers are most efii-
Client. and, furthermore. because we
should not leave ourselves at the
mercy of any ous type of foreign
labor. At present the great bulk Of
the unskil1ed labor on the isthmus lis
done by West India negroes. chiefly
from jamaica. barbados. and the other

been rushed with such haste that there
has been insufficient preparation for the
hygiene and comfort of the employees.
As matter OF fact neither criticism Is
just. II would have been impossible to
gone. for such qulckness would have
meant Insufficient preparation On the
other hand. to refuse TO do anything un;
til every possible future contingency had
been met would have caused wholly un-
warranted delay. The right course to
follow was exactly the course which has
been followed Every reasonable prepara-
ton was made in advance. the hygienic

other hand there has been timid re-
fusal TO push forward the work because
of inability to anticipate every possible
emergency. for. of course, many defects
can only be shown by the working of the
system in actual practice.
In addition to attending to the health
of the employees, 1t Is of course neces-
sary to provide for policing the zone

Cleaning GIT Frames.

Water should never be put on gilt
frames. They should be wiped with
dry cloth or channels. This applies to
all metals and lacquered goods. After
a lacQuered bed has once been wet and
polished It must be continually pol
ished. so the best plan is to keep 1t
dry as long as possible. Reaches are
deadly enemies OF mirror backs. and
yearly ruin many thousands. For this
reason the old silverback mirror is
passing away. and the new ones are
