Union labor Vote.

Hon. William H. Buchanan is one OF
the leading union men OF western New
York and in 1907 was the Democratic
candidate for assemblyman in Chau-
tauqua county. This is what he has to
say Of the effort Of Mr.. Gompers to
turn the labor vote over to Mr.. Bryan:
81 am union labor man, and want
to say further that no man can carry
the labor vote into the Democratic
camp. | know how union labor men
feel in this city, and three-fourths of
them will stand by the Republican
party because only in that way have
they the assurance Of freedom from
the business disturbance that Mr.. Bry-
an promises for at least four years If
he can be elected. We workingmen
can't earn wages II statesmen are put
in Office to disturb business and make
trouble"

When on the bench Judge Taft said;
That employees have a right to form
labor unions.
That such unions are a benefit to la
Dor and TO the public.
That they have the right to join with
other unions.
That the accumulation Of a fund to
aid in a strike is right.
That employees have a right to strike
whenever any Of the terms Of their
employment are unsatisfactory.
Mr.. Gompers says Judge Taft is OPP
posed to organized labor. Mr.. Com
pers has done a lot of talking In his
time and has been a very prolific writ
er, but in all he has said or in all he
has written he has never given organ
ized labor a more unqualified indorse-
ment than Judge Taft gave when on
the bench.

Clock and Watch Freaks.

"a watch isn't exactly dirty when it
requires cleaning" says a matchmaker.
1T may need cleaning when it hasn't
even been worn.
"a common cause of this is that the
oil in the works has dried up and be-
come sticky, causing the watch to go
slow or even to stop. In this case ii
not only wants cleaning, but also the
addition of fresh oil.
THE best oil for this purpose is OBJ
tanned from the jawbone of a porpoise
or kindred fish. Many watchmakers
mix their own oil from various kinds.
Clocks also stop for no apparent
reason. During a thunderstorm, 70.
instance, clock may stop, only resum.
ing work when minutes, days or even
weeks have passed.
"Thunderstorms. again, have been re-
sponsible for the restarting Of old
clocks which have apparently retired
altogether from active service. Lon

sunerstitions In COOKING.

Time proves all things, Including the
wisdom Of teaching cookery and do
nestle science to schoolgirls. Hosts
of idle superstitions about cooking are
now set aside, and the next generation
of young hOusekeepers will hear less
and less of them, for science shows up
superstition in true if ridiculous
light There is, however, difference
of opinion concerning methods Of
teaching 1t is not claimed that the
school kitchen can be the duplicate Of
the home kitchen, but 1t is a place
where principles may be taught ac-
curately, and this is important.
Women in the past have depended
too much on recipes and firm belief
in luck They had not learned that
cooking is an application of chemical
laws and that a knowledge of cause
and results makes plain what before
was unaccountable. Some teachers Of
cookery follow the group method, in
which about eight pupils Jointly pre-
pare the subjects of the lesson. The
pan of dozen rolls, for instance.
when ready to eat represents their
combined labor One girl sifted and
measured the -four, another measured
baking powder, a third one rubbed in
the shortening. and so on. No single
girl went through the whole process.
BY the individual method each girl
makes one single roll, following the
process from beginning to end This
way necesSitatcs very small measure
ments. and soE;e mothers contend that
it creates parsir.ouioUs habit that
the girls never overcome. Theoretical
ly tie individual method seems better
than the grouping in a class 1t is
obviously too much to expect a girl
to step easily from making one muffin
or a half cup of soup to preparing
enough for large family. Doubtless
some mothers expect too much from
this school practice, forgetting the
sound teaching of principles. With
these laws of cause and effect, OF pro-
portions an6 temperatures firmly
fixed In mind, the faculty TO increase
proportions will soon come.

WHAT IS A DAY7
You Probably Think It Is Twenty four
Hours, but It Isn't.


Nine persons ont Of ten-yes, 900 out
Of every 1,dOO-if asked how long it
takes the earth to turn once on its
axis would answer twCnty-four hours.
and To the question. How many times
does it turn on its axis i'm the course
Of the year? the answer would be
1854 times. Both answers are wrong
1t requires but twenty-three hours
and fifty-six minutes for the earth to
make one complete turn, and II makes
1904 turns during the year. The err
ror springs from a wrong idea of what
is meant by day.
The day is not, as is commonly sup
posed, the time required by the earth
to make one turn on its axis, but the
interval between two successive pas
sages Of the sun across the meridian
that Is to say, the time which elapses
after the sun is seen exactly south in
its diurnal course through the heavens
before it is again seen in that position.
Now, in consequence Of the earth's
revolution in its orbit or path round
the sun, the sun has the appearance
Of moving very slowly in the heavens
in a direction from east to west. At
noon tomorrow the sun will be a short
distance to the east Of the point in the
heavens at which it is seen at noon
today, so that when the earth has
made one complete turn it will still
have to turn four minutes longer be-
fore the sun can again be seen exactly
| south

FINDINGS NOT KEEPINGS.
Lost Articles Are Always Crying Out
For Their Owners.


When one is on the public thorough
fare or in the street car or train or
boat and picks up an object that is
valuable, is 1t his?
True. he may find something which
is too small and trifllng TO warrant
searching to find the owner. such as a
handkerchief. a pair Of gloves. etc.
But when he finds something OF value
It is not his until he has done every
thing I'm his power TO find the owner.
The street railways and trains are
so systematized today that IL, when
one finds an Object OF value. he re-
turns 1t to the coInpany's representa-
tive it is almost sure TO catch up with
its owner Every person Of intelli-
gence knows that the FIRST place to
inquire for it is at the lost and found
department.
When. however. one is on the street
and finds something which, If he lost
ii himself he would very much like to
have returned. there are the columns
Of q newspaper in which to advertise.
If he fails to find the owner after
this. then he can rightfully call 1t his
own and have q clear conscience, but
If he avoids looking over the lost and
found columns and fails to do his part
toward finding the owner he Is almost
as dishonest as II he took the goods

Serious For OuvO.

An army captain on returning home
from India brought with him a goodly
stock Of souvenirs. Among them was
a pair of laughing jackasses, which he
intrusted to one Of the sailors, Tom
Pinch.
Alas! The unaccustomed shipboard
life did not agree with the creatures.
and in spite Of all Toms care they
pined and finally died.
When he discovered the catastrophe.
Tom was in despair.
II daren't tell the captain"
Don't shirk it, mate" said his pal.
"Break it to him gently. You'll find
It'll be all right"
The advice seemed sound, a1d Tom
sought the gallant CAPTAIN.

THE ANCIENT SPARTANS.
They Flossed Men Who Grew Too Fat
For Military Service.

For Military Service.
Among the ancient Spartans every
thing was considered secondary to mil
itary efficiency. and with view to Sc
curing this the boys and men were by
law kept in a continual state Of train
ing" No deformed child was allowed
to live. Boys were taken from their
homes and subjected to military regu-
lations at the age Of seven. They were
compelled to wear the same single gar
ment winter and summer. At twenty
they Joined the ranks and from that
age till they reached sixty were re-
quired TO dine at the public tables,
where only a certain quantity was sup
piled for each man. The magistrates
interfered in absurdly small matters.
They regulated the degree Of fairness to
which it was lawful for any citizen to
extend his body
Those who dared to grow too fat or
too soft for military service and exer-
else were sometimes soundly logged.
Aelian In his history relates that
Nauclis, son Of Polytus, was brought
before the ephors (magistrates) and the
whole assembly of Sparta, and "his I'M
lawful fairness" was publicly exposed.
and he was threatened with perpetual
Punishment If he did not bring his
body within the regular Spartan COM
pass and give up the culpable mode
of living, which was declared to be
more worthy Of an Ionian than a
Spartan

The omninresent Rose.

Every continent on the globe, with
the exception of Australia, produces
wild roses. There can be little doubt
that the rose is one Of the oldest fow-
ers in the world, perhaps grown from
the wind blown seeds in paradise. In
Egypt it is depicted on numbers Of
early bas-reliefs, dating from 5000 to
$500 B. G. Rosewater, or the essence of
roses, is mentioned by Homer in the
"Iliad," and the flower is spoken OF in
the Proverbs of Solomon.
