CARPENTERS MAY STRIKE.
Split O5cing to Difference Regard
ing Non-Union Material.

No agreement was reached yesterday at the
final conference between the conference COM
mittees of the Master Carpenters Association
and the New York District Council OF the
brotherhood OF Carpenters. In reference to a
new wage agreement beginning on January l..
which took place at the Gorham Building,
broadway and 10Th street. The Master
Carnenters' Association withdrew its PROPOSE
ton TO reduce the wages 80 cents a day and
agreed TO continue the present wages Ihe
meeting became deadlocked over the question
of continuing the section of the old agreement
providing that the members of the association
shall rse only union made wood trim
The association committee refused to renew
the agreement with this provision. on the ground
that the greater part of the wood trim handled
in this city non-union, and while the union
carpenters have been handling this non-union
trim for independent contractors the association
says they putting it in unfair competition
with the independent employers by exacting this
pledge
The committee Of the carpenters refused to re-
new the agreement with this pledge left out
and the meeting broke up without reaching any
settlement
This leaves the Master Carpenters Associd-
tion free 10 use union non-union trim on and
after January 1. In case of general strike
of the carpenters they Will have the support of
all the national unions. The United Brother
hood of Carpenters has a membership Of 10000
throughout the coun-ry, and is ready to order
sympathetic strikes In other cities.
The master carpenters sent out statement
last evening saying that they had treated The
carpenters with the utmost fairness and ex-
pected to be treated fairly in return. 'If the
carpenters strike" the statement SAYS. 1T will
be a very foolish move. especially in view of
the fact that at least 80 per cent of the car
penters are idle, with little prospect of inn
movement in trade conditions. We have agreed
not to reduce wages"

Good Sense In The Use Of
 Medicine.
How Prepared Household Remedies May Be lntelli- gently Employed and Proof Of What One
 Of them Has Ac-
 complished.

There are some who will not employ a doctor under any circumstances and others who argue that we should not so much as take simple cough mix ture without calling on a medical practitioner to prescribe it.
 As usual the truth lies between the two extremes and common sense is all that is required to find it. Safe fam fly remedies, tried by time and proved valuable by experience will always have their place in the household and there are constantly occurring instan- intelligently used. A good tonic, safe for use without doctors prescription, with complete directions for taking, of demonstrated worth, such as Dr Williams Pink Pills, will save many calls on the busy doctors time and will save money, time and suffering to the patient.
 If you feel rundown, either through over-work, worry, or some great strain on the bodily forces, you cannot do better than to use pr Williams Pink Pills. Mrs Nellie Mead, of 367 Bed ford street, Johnstown, Pa., says: "After the birth of my baby I did not get very strong, but grew weaker, if anything, as time went on. Any little excitement or work, even going up stairs made'me tired out and short | of breath. My digestion was poor and 1 didn't get hungry. If forced my self to eat, the gas on my stomach dis dressed me terribly. l was pale and ! nervous and was often troubled with
 dizzy headaches and palpitation of the | heart.
 l ''I lost interest in life and became
 melancholy. The medicines 1 took | for over a year didn't help me, so be- gan to uSe-Dr Williams Pink Pills. Sooner than I had hoped, I noticed a
 little benefit and continued the treat
 ment until we'll. My complexion be- came healthy and blood pure. My ap-
 petite came back, digestion was good
 and gradually my nerves grew strong.
 1 felt better and stronger in every
 way"
 l. pr Williams Pink Pills have also cured such blood diseases as anamia,
 rheumatism, after-etfects of the grip
 and levers. Owing to the intimate re-
 lation between the blood and nerves,
 the Pills have been found invaluable
 in such nervous diseases as dizziness
 nervous debility, neuralgia, St Vitus
 dance and even partial paralysis and Iocomotor ataxia.
 pr Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid,
 on receipt of price 50 cents per box six boxes for S2. 50, by the pr Will
