WAGE DISPUTE UP AGAIN
p. r. r. Trsinmen Confer Again With
the General Manager.

A committee of the Pennsylvania
railroad trainmen spent yesterday af-
ternoon comforting with General Man-
ager Atterbury concerning wages
The question has been under discl1s-
sion since November. The tr;lnmen
wanted an equalization OF their wage
scale. The railroad company promised
to revise the schedules apd do any
thing for the men possible, provided
they did not demand anything above
the 10 per cent. advance made by the
company to all its employees. This left
the matter practically for the men to
settle. as any advantage to one en-
pIoye meant a disadvantage to another.
The committee yesterday wanted the
matter definitely settled, but left It Is
understood, with II still in dispute.

hemisphere of clouds and gloom,

We want a religion for both
worlds, for this because we are
living in it-for the next because
we are going to it 'one that pre-
pares for the next by right living
in this--a religion that softens the
step and gives melody to the voice,
that checks Impotence and irri-
tation and gives self control; a
religion not merely for the church
and prayer meeting, but for busi-
ness, for the family and for every
day life ; a religion of both faith
and works and of work as found
ed or faith a religion of principle
az we'll as feeling, of right habit
as we'll as occasional impulse,
that projects the honeymoon into
the harvest moon, and makes the
happy home like the fig tree,
bearing at once the beauty of the
tender blossom and the glory of
the ripened fruit. a religion that
shall level the ruts and gullies and
rocks in the pathway of life and
give Joy in that pathway to all
who are in it.

1t is not the woman who is for
ever chasing everyone in the house
with a broom or buster who makes
the most impression as to the de-
sirableness of neatness and order.
While she is making a martyr of
herself in her frantic attempts to
always keep the hearth tidy and
the woodwork polished, and the
carpets free from spots or specks,
she is often driving away the bet
ter elements of the home-peace
and love and harmony. A child
cannot enjoy his playthings with
out a place in which to play, nor a
man feel free in his own house if
no must be always remembering
that not so much as a magazine or
book shall be left one moment out

WHICH R YOU?

We recently saw one of our citi-
zens going home with a small
basket of fruit. A few evenings
later we passed him again and he
had a small package OF candy. On
both occasions we we're walking
with the same gentleman who re-
marked to us that the man with
the candy was a good fellow, but
blew in all he made so foolishly.
We merely smiled in reply, but
could not help, in our own mind,
as we walked along, drawing a
contrast between the two men.
One was smoking a cigar that cost
as much as the candy. Burning
into ashes and blowing out into
the air the money the other spent
for nick-nacks that brought a smile
of happiness to the cheek he once
thought so rosy, and gladdened
eyes that still sparkeled like a
thousand diamonds with their tell
tail for him; carrying home one
by one, the sweetest memories of
life; building evening after even
ing an image in a little heart of
"Home, Sweet Home" that no
time, even into eternity, would
destroy. Nourishing and kindling
a new love that would in old age
look back to those happy home
comings and bless his memory as
the dearest papa that ever lived.
But what of our friend, the cri-
tic? Yes, what of him? Which
of the two had you rather have
been? Which of the two are you?

DANGER In DELAY.
Kidney Diseases Are Too DAN
gerouS for Montgomery
City People to Neglect.

The great danger of kidney
troubles is that they get a firm
hold before the sufferer recognizes
them. Health is gradually UNDER
mined. Backache, h h e,
nervousness, lameness, soreness,
lumbago, urinary trouble, dropsy,
diabetes and Bright's disease fol-
low in merciless succession. Don't
neglect your kidneys. Cure the
kidneys with the certain and safe
remedy, Doan's Kidney Pills.
G. A. Galwith, gardener and
carpenter, living on Bluff street,
Fulton, Mo-, says: est was for
my kidneys that l used Doan's
Kidney Pills. I had a lameness
across the lions and suffered in
tensely in the abdomen and over

lieve me but could not. l was ad-

BEWARE U MEN.

If you don't want women to
outstrip you in the industrial race
and compel you to come TO them
when you want fifty cents you had
better stop drinking poor whisky
and stop gambling at race tracks.
Women, in spis:: Of mans refusal
to give them the rights and privi-
lodges to which they are entitled,
are today in 145 branches of
business and in instances show
ing more ability than the men. In
one of the greatest financial insti-
buttons in this country, not long
ago, q we'll known man, drawing .
salary of s25, 900 a year, suffered a
nervous collapse. The directors
selected a young woman who for
ten years had been the steno-
grapher. She, the directors told
us, had done better work than the
man she succeeded and is doing it
for but $4,000 a year. In fifty
years these women will know
more than the men. They have
more time to read and study and
they are improving their time.
Eventually all the universities will
be co-eduational and the women
will carry of all'the prizes.
