be on the servant problem, child labor

Sometimes you see a familiar face,

the habitue Of the reading room is

This question was put to a librarian
recently. The reply was:

The most eminent medical scientists
are unanimous in the conclusion that
the generally accepted limitation of hu-

The critical period, that determines it's
duration, seems to be between so and 60;
the proper care of the body during this
decade cannot be too strongly urged;

Imitation of Ebony.

There are two processes, says the
Carriage Monthly, in use in the imita-
ton of ebony. Take a fine grained
piece of wood, use French black pol
ish, made black with fine coloring mat
ter or good air drying black varnish
may be applied. This, however, gives
only a superficial coloring, and when
the edges wear off the light colored
wood shows. The other method is to
wash three or four times any dense
wood with a boiling concoction Of log
wood, allowing it to dry between each
application. Then wash with a solu-
ton of acetate of iron, which is made
by dissolving iron filings in vinegar
This stain is very black and penetrates
into the wood so that ordinary wear
and chipping will not show the original
color.

Miniature Marvels.

Almost any commonplace object
magnified under a good lens will re-
veal astonishing and unsupported form,
structure and life. For instance:
Insects Of various kinds may be seen
in the cavities of a grain of sand.
Mold is a forest of beautiful trees,
with branches, leaves and fruit.
Butterflies are fully feathered.
Hairs are tubes filled with pith and
ornamented ON the outside with scales.
The surface Of the human body is
covered with scales like fish. A sin
gle grain of sand would cover $50 Of
these scales, and yet a scale covers
about 500 pores. Through these mar
row openings the perspiration forces
itself like water through sieve.
Each drop Of stagnant water con-
tains a world of creatures swimming
with as much freedom as whales in
the sea.

GRAND MEMORIAL
TO THE PILGRIMS
Monument to Commemorate
Their First Landing in
Massachusetts.

Provincetown, Mass, Aug. 2O.-The
laying of the corner stone Of the Cape
Cod Pilgrim Memorial monument in
the presence of President Roosevelt,
Governor Guild and distinguished
guests, completed the foundation of
one of the most imposing structures
along the Atlantic coast, commemor-
ating the first landing within few
feet of it's base of the pilgrim fathers.
At anchor in the harbor lay the
basis of Provincetown's wealth, some
fifty sail Of fishermen, and a dittle
farther out eight formidable battle
ships and the tenders of the fisher
men swung at anchor, while scattered
between the two fleets was bevy of
yachts, decked from keel to truck
with flutterig signal flags.
But the object of every ones gaze
and the mecca of the day was Town
Hill, on top of which was perched a
wooden amphitheater, the seats of
which rose above the cement base of
the monument. Over ON the northeast
corner of the foundation rested the
corner stone. a four foot mass Of
Quincy granite, ready for the hand Of
the mason. TO the right of the corner
stone was covered platform for pre-
siding officers, guests and speakers Of
the day.
All of the prominent persons In
vited to participate in the exercises
arrived during the night, with the ex-
ception Of President Roosevelt. At
$50 o'clock the blue flag of the May
flower, with President Roosevelt on
board was sighted at Long Point, and
a salute Of welcome doomed forth
from the guns on board of the yachts
riding at anchor, in the harbor.
AS the Mayfiower passed the line of
battleshipS and other craft she re-
turned the salute, the anchor was put
overheard, and in few minutes the
presidents party were on shore

TELLS THE STORY OF THE CASE
First a Strike; Then Upon a Failure of
the Strike, Boycott.

The steps leading up to this action
are set forth in the complaint to be
the outcome of a strike According
to the complaint Aug. %, 1906, with
out previous notice the members Of
the Metal Polishers' union No. 13. Of
st. Louis, in the employ of the stove
company. struck in body and with
out notice to or conference with the
company, or waiting for an adjustment
of grievances, which is set forth to
have been in violation Of an agree
ment between the International Union
of Metal Polishers and the Stove Foun-
ders' National Defense association, Of
which the Bucks company is mem
Der, and by which all differences have
for fourteen years been successfully
adjusted by conference committee.
On the failure of the strike the In
ternational Union of Metal POlishers
declared a boycott against the Bucks
company and its product inserted the
cOmpany'S name in its unfair list,
and published it in the union paper.

cured it's Endorsement by the Central
Trades and Labor union, of ST. Louis,
and the Metal Trades Council. also of
st. Louis, both subordinate unions of
the American Federation.
In November, 1906, at the annual
convention of the American Federation
in Minneapolis, the products of the
company were placed on the "We don't
patronize" list Of the Federation, and
they were published in this list in the
american Federationist' in the June
and July, 1907, issues. The complaint
says that the Federation has greatly
diminished. and in many places de-
stroyed, the company's trade.
The sweeping nature of this action
is indicated by partial list of nation
al and international unions and state
declarations that will be directly af-
fected if the injunction is granted. for
it will include the names Of 173 labor
organizations.

Ants the Ideal Communists.

If by the phrase we mean that labor

that all labors Of whatever sort are
