est Battle in History
The Eight-Hour Day and the Closed
Shop Cost Union $4,00O,O0O
But They Got 1t.

''The international Topographic
cal Union has won the eight hour
day There remains but a few
places in which strikes are still
pending, and those will be rapidly
cleaned up" declared International
Sccretary-Treasurer, J. w. Bran
wood, at the session of the North
crn Ohio Typographical conference
held in Cleveland last Sunday.
[l''Thc /. Il. U. has won the most
remarkable battle in trades union
history, not alone from the point of
number of men involved and the
time of its duration, but especially
from the financial standpoint. The
!. Il. U. has set new mark. At
the inception of the strike the
international Typographical Union
had less than $40, 1000 in its treas
ury. Today, after fighting for over
20 months and expanding upwards
0fS4 600, 900, we have over $500, 900
in our treasury. This feat, accom-
plisheu b" an organization of not
TO exceed As, 900 dues paying mem
berS, has astounded not only the
trades unionists Of the world, but
has amazed the inanciers of this
country. 1t has no parallel said
Secretary Bramwood.
''We have gained the eight hour
day for 25, 900 of our book and lob
members and have held the union
shop. Less than 1000 men are
still being carried on our strike
rolls and the number is steadily de.
creaSing. We have the situation
well in hand, and it will be but a
short time until our eight-hou
strike will be matter of history.
''The /. II. U. is at present eX-
pending Il large amount of money
in the label campaign which it is
carrying on throughout the country
and as Il result the Union Offices are
rushed with work. The steadfast-
ness and loyalty Of the members Of
the ]. Il. U. throughout this eight
hour contest has attracted the adj
miratiOn Of the entire country.
But little space has been given to
the strike by the newspapers, per-
hapS not Onctwentieth OF that de
voted to the anthracite miners
strike. and YET it has cost a vastly
larger amount of money.
S'Ihe position of the l. T. U. to-
day is impregnable. 1t has sue
cessfullv weathered Il fierccly fought
battle and Will increase its member
ship rapidly.
''The resources of the I. r. U.
do not consist of the amount of
money it has in its treasury, but
are measured by the Willingness of
its members to furnish the funds to
finance any battle which might
threaten its existence. And from
the manner in which it has de-
monstrated how far it will go if the
occasion arises, it need have no
fear of the future-its resources
are those of its membership.

MENDING AS AN ART
OF GREAT IMPORTANCE TO GIRL
WHO WOULD DRESS WELL.
She Who Has Mastered the knack
of Sklful Repairing Has Really
Added Greatly to Her
Wardrobe.

1t seems sometimes as If the art of
mending is almost a lost one, and yet
there is nothing more essential for
a girl to acquaint herself with. And
il she really learns to do this well It
is safe to predict it will be a real
pleasure. Things skilfully mended
last twice as long and certainly look
much better while they are worn.
When a dress or any garment is taken
off 1t should be looked over and never
put away if there is anything that
needs to be done to it, In this way
clothes always will be in order and
ready to put on at a moments no
tice
Darning stockings is a necessary
form of mending. and a mistake too
often made is in using too heavy cot-
ton, making a lumpy, uncomfortable,
and unsightly place. when in reality
it should be perfectly smooth. It is
better to hold the stocking over the
hand rather than over stocking ball,
as the latter method is apt to stretch
the stocking and make the hole larger.

II 1t Is done on the right side. Use
one strand of the darning cotton and
run the stitches in on the length Of
the hole, first taking about three
stitches beyond the worn place at
each end The threads must be laid
close to gether, then take stitches
across the width in the same manner,
only interlacing them In and out OF the
lengthwise stitches. Naturally no
knots are permissible. and when fin
ished, If evenly done, a darn is actu-

or wool, as the case may be. On
twilled goods the darning stitches can
be taken the way the twill runs, and
when pressed will hardly show. Some
times mending tissue answers the pur-
pose perfectly. It Is next to impossi-
BILE To detect torn place mended with
this tissue.

LONG Wells ARE ATTRACTIVE.
Can Be Made to Add Greatly to Ap
pearance of the Hat.

Long wells this season are, indeed,
lovely; so lovely that they make the
most simple hat look elaborate and
costly The slight note Of black,
which is now considered so desirable,
is often introduced in the veil. as for
example. a three-yard length Of palest
peach chiffon, edged all round with a
fragile insertion of black and-at the
extreme edge-with a row of black
satin ribbon. When this veil is thrown
back over light hat the effect is
quite enchanting and the same may
be said Of wells Of palest blue chiffon
or net, with motifs of black chantilly
inserted in the corners and a frill Of
black chiffon all round the edge. When
the veil is very elaborate it is good
taste to have the hat moderately plain;
a really plain hat hardly exists at this
moment.
Immense bows of ribbon-arranged
at either side of the large cloche hat
and joined by a fiat band-are often
used on hats which are destined to be
accompanied by one OF the new wells,
and the ribbons harmonic, or con-
trast with the veil material in a pc
culiarly attractive way. For hats Of
ivory or pale tan color nothing can be
prettier than a long veil Of palest bis
cult Alencon net, with a deep hem all
round and above this hem an insertion
of fine lace; or the same veil with the
insertion Of lace and an edge of black
velvet ribbon.

CoIored Nets.

Colored nets will take the place to
a considerable extent of chiffon for
the construction of the separate waist
They are more satisfactory than
chiffon because the costume idea Of
making the waist Of different fab
ric. but of the same color as the skirt
and coat, can thus be carried out at a
price which will appeal to women Of
moderate means.

Jack, he gave in without struggle
an outward struggle, | mean.
He was the bravest little chap you
ever saw. With his great serious
brown eyes he took in the situation
and accepted it in the funniest, wisest
way. He even tried to pet and pacify
Barbara and wondered that she should
expect papa to carry her upstairs, or
should ask mamma to rock her to
sleep. He loved daddy and mommy
too well to bother them, and Ted took
a great deal Of their time.
Now, because Jack was such a little
gentleman, he had good many hard
things to bear. He was oftener asked
to give up" He never made fuss,
as Barbara did, so it was easier to ask
him to be unselfish. His turn for
goodies" came last, because, you
know, Barbara was a girl and Ted a
baby" Jack smiled down his personal
inclinations, took what came his way
and was loved by every one for his
beautiful disposition. People loved
him, but they did not tell him SO half
often enough, so how s1uld ne know?
Now when he was three a terrible
calamity befell him. His mother was
taken i'll, and it was decided that one
Of the children should be sent away
to visit Aunt Maragret!
Barbara stamped her feet and
howled so dismally at the mere idea
that she should go, that Teddy joined
in and for an hour there was a scene.
Jack stood looking on, silent and fear
full. 1t ended as he knew it would
end; he, the little middle one, had
to take what the others would not
have and go to Aunt Margaret.
Away he went, away from the moth
er he adored, and the home that was
SO sweetIy familiar to his loyal child
ish heart.
Aunt Margaret saw the struggle on
the brave little face beside her. She
had no children, and so perhaps had
time to notice more the children of
other mothers. She was too wise to
pretend to buy Jacks smile with can
dy or toys. but all the way on the
train shef told him splendid stories
Of heroes who were great because
they were unself1sh and true-hearted.
And by the time they reached their
journeys end Jack forgot much of
his suffering and began to wonder.

frolicked with Jack every evening
when be came home. trying to make
him say that something in the new
home was superior to what Jack held
sacred. This was a great trial to the
small, heartsick visitor, but he was
too polite to say so.
One night when Aunt Margaret was
putting him in bed she said:
"See, what a great fine bed for one
little boy to lie in"
Jack gulped, remembering his own
