IT PAID THE DEBT.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.

In a little town in New Jersey the
congregation of certain church have
been bothered by the existence of Il
mortgage on the church property.
Having tried various commonplace
ways of reducing the debt they finally
hit upon n novel scheme. Every wo-
man In the congregation wrote a let
ter to each OF the boys who were
schoolmates In days gone by. and the
men members wrote to their school
girl sweethearts II is understood.
however, that most Of the letters were
written by the women members. Be
that as it may, the scheme worked
beautifully The gentle hint for finan-
cial assistance bore golden fruit. The
contributions came in SO fast that the
debt was very soon cancelled and there
was enough left over to cover the struc-
ture with two coats of much needed
paint.

HOW IT WORKS.

There has been some criticism lately
of the New Zealand compulsory ar
bitratlon law and particularly the part
that prohibits laborers from striking.
How it works is Interestingly ex-
planned by lawyer from that coun-
try, who Is quoted by the Springfield
Republican, According to this account,
among other labor uni,ls in New zea-
land Is that Of the slaughter men In
the meat-packiug industry. The ranks
OF this class OF workers were consid-
ernbly Increased a while ago by the
coming OF IA group OF Australians, who
were attracted by the prospect OF en-
ployment IN an active industry, They
had not been at work long when they
made up their minds that the wages
were not satisfactory, AS their demands
for an increase were not complied with,
they soon struck In violation OF the To-
cal law. The arbitration court was
promptly called to the scene Of the
difficulty, and the officials of tho slaugh-
ter-men's union were taken 10 task.
They explained that they We're not re-
sponhbe for the strike, The court
fined the Australians S25 each, but the
latter responded that they had no funds
and could not pay the ilnes. The min
lister OF labor then called upon the SUI
preme court OF the country TO take cog
nizanee OF the case, and the court de-
clded that the strikers We're yiolators
Of the law and disturbers OF tho peace
and that they must either pay the fines
or be sentenced 10 prison at hard labor
for three months. The fines We're quick
" paid. and the men returned to work
who will say thar this law is not
Just, or that II does not protect the

"The danger of today is that in the
Zeal for reform. demagogues, Socialists
and enemies of society may be given an
opportunity TO carry legislation to
such an extreme as permanently to
hamper the business growth of the
country" says Secretary Taft. 1t is a
timely warning, well worth needing.
Reform is a good thing, and the coun-
try needs much of IL. but 1t must be
guided by reason If good and not injury

Dear Sir; No man is in a position to
influence men with regard to their pro-
perty more than you in that little room
where they tell you their troubles.
Pity, if you don't know how to keep a
house dry and sonnd, any sort of
structure, house store factory ware
house shop barn fence-apy sort of
fence, except rail-; with paint.
What paint? The paint that takes
least gallons: for paint costs money,
and putting it on costs twice as much
as the paint.
That is short; but that's all; it in
cludes the rest. One paint wear long
another veal short; but the one that
wears long is the least-gallons paint;
least gallons ean pure a Il strong,
and most gallons meaus adulterated
and weak besides small g"llons.
Paint is Il of the biggest interests
in the United States; not the business
of making it; DO, the business of
paint, taking care of property. Paint
is worth a great deal more than it
costs, aud the best cost least: Devoe.
