HENS WINS IN SECOND ROUND.

Unless some one places a Restrain
ing Hand on the Industrious Hen
pretty soon, the Cold Storage Magnate
will be Putting his Overcoat in soak
and 0anceling his arrangements for
that Junket to Narragansett Pier ne
had planned to make next summer on
his Ill-gotten Gains
The Humble Hen has Gone to the
Mat with the Cold Storage Magnate,
and he is now getting ready to Lie
Down and Take the Count The Bat
tie was Good while 1t lasted, but the
Magnate has discovered that as the
original Winter Worker the Hen has
got him Tagged.
Long before the first SHOWS fell last
fall the Cold Storage Maghate broke
into a conference with the Coal Baron,
the Wooden Underwear Trust and the
Ice Octopus, and took Nine Short
Lessons on How to Get Rich Before

When he made his Getaway every
body had 1t Doped Out from the wild
look in his eye and his Air of Agita-
ton that he had contracted the disease
that has Made Standard Oil and the
Equitable Insurance Company justly
| famous.
He started out on a Still Hunt for
the Common People, who, had had
been advised on no less an authority
than the late P. T BarnunA are Just

He began buying eggs at the rate OF
several hundred Thousand day, ana
1t wasn't long before he had the Bins
all full Then he built some more
Bins. Before Winter Blew In from
Medicine Hat he had 1.O270O0 of nice
old Storage Eggs Tucked Away for
the Stormy Weather. This Bunch OF
Hen Product stood him to win several
cool millions and as he looked into
| the Eggless Future he laughed LOU
and Heartless laugh.
i That was some time ago, and the
eggs have been getting more like cold
storage eggs every day, according to-
the Boarding House Experts, !

Ability ever since-and it should be
remembered that the Hen enjoys the
reputation of being something of

When the Storage Magnate wanted
TO sell Osierized Hen Fruit at 2 cents
a Throw he discovered that the Hen
was delivering Eggs Direct from the
Factory at just about the same Figure.
and that the Common People we're
Going to the Hen like Hungry Kid
to the Damson Jam.
Then he Ordered a Cut. The Hen
saw him and Stood Pat, and then Put
More Hands at Work in the Factory.
The result is that the Cold Storage

OF his Preserved Eggs at II cents

attractive Stationery


In establishing an office and cor
respondence business of any kind the
item of stationery becomes one of the
first considerations, no matter how
staid, sound, and conservative the
proprietor may consider his business
to be. One of the marked examples
of the effect of stationery alone may
be cited from the experience of a Chi
cago wholesale house some time ago.
Credit had been granted a new Gus
toner who was not rated with any of
the commercial agencies. Some
question arose over the action OF the
credit department and the chief credit
man was called in. His explanation,
too, was satisfactory when he showed
the correspondence sheets of the
debtor house.
This is the statioery that appeals
alike to the greatest of takers and to
the best types of business men," he
said, exhibiting the artistically en-
graved letter heads and return address
on envelopes. Il have judged by the
text of the letters that the correspond
ents are not of the faker class. The
line of credit asked is not large and
well, virtually, have given credit on
the strength Of the firms stationery"
The common sense argument. for
artistic stationery that shall please
the eye will be pleased. Every bust
ness man in the country who has ex-
perience of up to date correspondence
from the outside will tell you how in
voluntarily a neatly written letter on
an artistic letterhead appeals to him
instantly. There Is subtle compli.
ment implied in the sending to him
of letter so well executed, and hav-
ing in the letter material itself more
than the cost of the postage. Evi.
IDENTIFY the writer has spent time in
proportion upon the dictated matter.
and has been as careful OF the type
writing. From envelope, letterhead,
through the dictation correspondence
TO the final signature of the writer,
the letter is model.

are drawn to such letter fails TO ap- |
preciate it, and with the writing Of |
every such letter the recipient Is tax. |

ern city and set the pace for artistic !

Application 60 Contractors.

The War and Navy Departments are
waiting for an opinion by Attorney
General Moody regarding the appli-
cation of the eight-hour law to con-
tractors doing government work III
their own factories and shipyards. So
licitor General Hoyt has written the
opinion and forwarded it to tho At
torney General for his action. Ths
opinion, it is believed, declares that
the new law does not apply in such in
stances. Labor leaders claim that the
law should be applied to private ship
yards constructing battleships to the
factories making shoes for the SOL
diers, sailors and marines, and to gun
and powder factories, etc. 1t is said
to be certain that before the opinion
is returned here the Attorney General
will submit it to President Roosevelt,
who issued the orders relative to the
eight-hour law, but who is known to
have most determined views as to the
alleged encroachments of labor.

Holds Necklace.

Overtures for the settlement OF the
customs case involving the amount OF
the duty on the most valuable pearl
necklace in America have been made
to the Treasury Department and de-
clined, and the controversy will be
fought to finish in the United States
Circuit Court for the southern district
of New York.
Jewellers all over the country are
watching it, because it involves a
point important to their business.
William B. Leeds, the Rock Island
railway official, and his wife are the
persons who sought to get the pearls
imported, having picked them up III
a Paris jewelry store for the sum Of
$220,000
Had the pearls been brought in as a
necklace they would never have caused
any trouble. The duty on pearls sci
as jewelry is 60 per cent. The duty
on unstrung pearls is 10 per cent. This
particular necklace is one formerly be-
longing to an old French family, but
its value depends little on the history
attached to it. 1t consists Of thirty.
seven pearls, five of them of peculiar
ly wonderful size and lustre, and the
rest splendidly matched in colorln2
and size. A few months ago it at
tracted the eye Of American special
agents in Paris. They saw it display
ed in case in a Paris jewelry shop
marked for sale. They concluded t.
keep track of it, and one day Mr.. and
Mrs. Leeds were seen looking at it.
Not long afterward it was gone.
1t appears NJ Citroen, French dea
er in jewelry, had undertaken to de-
liver it to the Leeds family in this
country, and in order to avoid paying
80 per cent duty had taken the neck
lace apart and brought the pearls over
to this country unstrung, paying 9
duty of $4,000, or 10 per cent. The
customs officers on this side were look
ing for a pearl necklace, but not for
unstrung pearls, and the pearls had
got past the appraiser before it wa:
learned that the necklace had been
taken apart.
The customs officers at once decided
the so per cent instead of the 10 per
cent duty would have to be paid and
began suit on Citroen in the Federal
Circuit Court to recover $4,000, the
so per cent duty which the French
dealer did not pay and hopes to escaps
paying.
The Leeds family has never got pos
session of the pearls, and it is a ques-
ton whether it ever will. The govern,
ment has possession of the pearls.
