A Word and a strike.

On Thursday forty woman neckwear
cutters Of this town struck because the
forewomen, also called "foreladies,"
applied to them individually or collec-
lively the name "slob." 4 pointed and
poisoned word, which the cravat carvers
will not stand for" They seem TO take
it in the n OF "slatternlv." Priding
themselves. and justly no doubt, on
the neatness and trigness Of their dress
and looks, the epithet is an Insult not to
be borne. II is injuria formr, n scorn
and slap at beauty. Instinctively beauty
rises in wrath and withdraws from work
until the word has been withdrawn.
IL will have to be admitted that the
offending word is OF no comely sound or
amiable SAVIOR. IL belongs to a disrepu-
table family and its original connotations
may not have been Of the choicest; but
in its present state and use does it carry
any implication OF inattention to the
graces? Words live, change and die

Is This tho Reputation OF Purdy?

Our compliments to the Hon. CHARLES
JOSEPH BoNAPARTE, the responsible head
OF the Department OF Justice, IL the Phil
ddeIphia Record reports him accurately
when it represents him as dismissing
in the following somewhat contempt
uous fashion the application Of his As
s~istant, Mr.. PURDY, for a patent for the
receivership device for trust busting:
Tho Government has no idea Of going into the
business Of running the trusts. Tho receivorship
application is merely a means OF relief. q temporary
means Of relief, Just as any receiver might be called
upon TO administer q corporation In the Jurisdiction
of the court for the purpose of attaining certain
temporary ends. II Is true that it Is q new depart
ure In equity practice. but there are ~anaiosies which
sustain II. still. there are some interesting legal
questions involved"
We should say there werel Observe,
for example. the lack of analogy, so to
speak, between Attorney-G General BONA
Parties description of the proposed re-
ceiverships as temporary Of
relief, mere transitory conditions estab-
lished for the purpose of attaining GER
tain temporary ends, and the language
OF Mr.. PURDY's prayer itself, which
prays that receivers be appointed to
take possession Of all the property, as
sets, business and affairs Of said defend
ants and wind up the same"
But the Attorney-G General calmly ex-
plains this lack OF analogy, and the ex-
PLANTATION is the most interesting feature
of his remarks:
It's 1.-THE prayer for receiversl embodiment in the
bill Just Med has no other Significance han to shov
that ne ssoordfndtes Of TITS Department. are giving
tnetr best nms and thought topar6 making as pork
effective In attaining the ends Of the iap."
So this is the work of su~bordinates,
anxious to frame a prayer that covers
every possibility, near or remote, just al
the language of an indictment is made
pleonastic for the sake of precaution; or
IS a careful conveyancer.pu puts into the
deed he Is drawing a string Of verbs Oh
nouns or adjectives which may seem to
the layman superiuous?
That is to say, 1t is merely on the prin-
ciple of leaving no stone unturned that
the zealous-perhaps overzealous-sub-
ordinates have Incorporated in their
prayer the prepoeterous suggestion of
Government receiverships to end the
trusts, precisely as these same admirable
s~ubordinates might have prayed for the
d~ecapitation Of the directors, or the
strangulation of the stockholders, or the
boiling to death of the bondholders of the
defendant corporations to the end that
no possible measure Of determination
might be overlooked.
Our compliments, again, to the At
torney-G General.

THE PERSONALITIES OF STEEL.
Reply of Mr. CewIes Cencernlng h Merits
OF Ned Lead.

To THE EDITOR OF THK SUN-Sir: Prof.
Louis Edgar Andes. author OF Animal Fats
and Oils. says that the two principal defects
alleged against red lead a. q bottoming paint
are. first. that in CONSEQUENCE Of an In
sufncieDcy Of oil IL rapidly dries up and
becomes hard. the result being that the paint
IL destroyed quickly unless protected from
rust forming influences by a second superim-
posed coating Of paint; and secondly. that
1t exerts a certain influence both on the
underlying metal and on the subsequent
layers OF paint az well.
He also says that red lead paint by itself
must. by reason of It's small proportion OF oil,
soon perish under atmospheric influences.
While in France, Austria and several other
countries red lead Is permitted, IL is altogether
banned In others. The combination Of red
lead and linseed oil has a tendency 20 blister.

red lead Is a variable chemical composition,

With reference TO the corroAion OF iron by

water line becomes almost entirely covered
with pustules and hydratic iron oxide. These
blisters are found to contain air or iron

At Albany.

II the members OF the Legislature
thought they we're to have a session
devoted exclusively to apportionment
they must DO a disappointed lot. The
Governor wants them to attend TO other
things. In his message of July 8 he
recommended TO. the lawmakers appor-
tionment and direct nomination. Now
he has asked them to consider the needs
Of the State fair and also the advisa-
bility of providing a new telephone cable
for the quarantine stations.
Maybe the Governor is not without
guile in making these recommendations.
The statesmen do not want to stay on
Capitol Hill. They wan TO go home, to
the mountains, to the sea. The Governor
may think that they will be spurred to
definite action if they see that delay
means a prolongation Of their stay in
Albany. The more they procrastinate
the more numerous become the subjects
recommended for their consideration.
The Governor lives in Albany. He can
stand it if the statesmen can.
Mr.. HUGHES is still a good deal Of a
mystery. The members Of the Legisla-
ture do not understand him. He may be
a humorist. II he is, the joke is plainly
on the Assemblymen and Senators.

Directions for the sand Cure.

To rHB EDITOR or THE SuH-StY: To those who
are at the seaside I would like 10 OFFER a little advice
which II followed will improve the general health:
at least I have found II beneficial 20 me for a mum
her OF years. Instead Of promenading along the
shore In the hot sun. go In bathing. and on coming
out Of the water 60 through the following sand
formula:
FIJI your hair with sand and rub the scalp thor
oughly: this will remove all dandrur. Rub your
face with sand; this will remove all skin impuri
ties. such as blarkheads. pimplcs. and Will help to
nstten out wrinkles and improve your complexion.
FIJI your mouth with sand and rinse II: repeat this
often. and II will Improve your speech. Rub your
teeth with sand. also the gums In order TO harden
them. This Will preserve your teeth. Rub sand In
your nostrns In order to harden and smooth the skin
and mucous membrane. This will make you less
susceptible TO colds In the head. besides being con
duclvc TO cleanliness. Rub your feet with sand
until the callous skin is removed. n the skin In
very coarse use a brush. Rub sand between your
toes in order TO harden the akin. Rub your chest
with sand. Have somebody rub the hollow Of your
back with sand. In fact, rub your whole body with
sand; this will quicken your nerves and stimulate
the circulation OF blood.
Submergs yourself In the water often and keep
your eyes open while submerged. This will I'm
prove your vision. See how long you can hold
your breath while under the water. This will
strengthen your lungs and chest. Gareie your
throat with salt water; this will cleanse and
strengthen the larynx. Then exercise yourself In
the water. bringing oil muscles into play. When
you come out you viii feel like a new man.
These are facts which may be demonstrated by
experiments that will cost nothing. Nature nas
provided the clean. white sand near the salt water.
and II Is a wonder TO me why men, women and
children do not take advantage Of the combination
more often. GEORGE FHNraIcK.

Neglected City Parks.

One need not go to Central Park to
find a public breathing space that shows
evidence of neglect or incompetence.
The lawns around the City Hall itself
are in very bad condition. In many
places the grass has disappeared en-
tirely. In others stray spears of green
serve to set of and advertise the sur
rounding baroness. Where the lawns
still show healthy growth they have an
unkempt look, as il they we're moved by
an amateur.
As City Hall Park is not too large to
receive care in all its corners, and as it
lies within the sphere of easy official
observation, its u~npleasing aspect hardly
can have gone unnoticed. Yet there is
no visible sign of attempts to improve the
appearance of what should be n garden
among parks. No new soil, no turf is
being applied, NJ extra force of men
is to be seen at work within the wire bar
riers. From every indication the public
is justified in believing that the park in
it's present condition fulfls the municipal
ideal Of what it should be.
Perhaps this is not the case. Still
what other explanation al be advanced
to account satisfactorily for the ragged,
worn and detected condition Of City Hall
Park?

Athletics old and New.

From the Norh ADsreda Repe1.
There sttll stands in . corner of the Harvard

contrast 10 the buildings Of to-day. II was the
nrst gymnasium erected for the use of Harvard
students.
In 10 those Who aimed at Increasing their physical
strength took - much pleasure in noting their i'm.
provement every week as docs the football player
OF to-day In his contests. This continual gain
coupled with the real pleasure OF physical actlvlty
which perhaps many experienced there for the
nrst time. was the sunicient motive 10 gain the full
measure OF physical energy attaina6lc by the con
~stitution of each Individual student.
We never know how Interesting the simplest exer
else may be unless we have had tho experience. In
the light Of q modern athletic contest the Interest
taken by the students OF forty years ago In their
exercises may seem quite childish. Who but a
child could be amused, as students then were, by
seeing his fellows lean backward and walk under
a barrier slowly lowered day by day until It was
little more than knee hiwhr The youth who was
looking forward TO Increasing the weight OF his
dumbbells from sixty 10 eighty pounds, who could
walk to the end of q vibrating spar without falling
and who was hoping soon 10 be able 70 mount the
peg studded pole while hanging by his hands, were
all Interested by the sight OF what the others could
do In these various lines.
II cannot be denied that all gained the greatest ~
tho benefits that come from physical exercise; and
II we would secure the same advantage to our
children we can do II by melting them 10 action on
similar lines. Instead OF each trying TO excel us
fellows, which he knows Is vain unless he ls one %
the strongest Of the class. each person must Try
to be stronger to-day than he was yesterday. Even
II we cannot move every one by this motive we
shall certainly move more than We do under our
present system.
