Rev. Charles SteIzIe Calls Him
Most Highly Skilled Arti-
san in the World.
FAVORS UNIVERSAL PEACE.
THE UNION MAN is NOT A REVO-
LUTIONIST OR AN ANARCHIST
OF THE soMB-THRoWING TYPE.
BUT A PATRIOT.

He may live in tenement, but he is
the backbone of this republic. He is
the most highly skilled artisan in the
world. 1t is because of this that we
are the most prosperous nation on the
face of the globe. America learned
the lesson earlier than any other ma
ton, that no people can advance I'M
less they take with them the common,
everyday man. Furthermore. Ameri-
ca learned the lesson sooner than any
other nation, that the prosperity of
the whole people depends upon the
prosperity of the workingman. He
has not received all that to which he
is entitled. Any man would be a
fool to say that the present social sys-
tenn is ideal, in any land. But the
labor movement is rapidly bringing in
the day when the workingman shall
come to his own.
The American workingman is an in.
dependent, free acting citizen Any
man, be he labor leader or politician
who says that he carries in his vest
pocket the vote of the American
working man is a liar. If. he really
believes it, he is a fool. When the
American workingman does follow a
leader, it is because that leader has
made good or because the principles
which he is advocating appeal to the
workingman's good sense. The
American workingman claims the
right to protest against any condition
which he believes is against the in
terest of the people. He fought long
for religious democracy. He fought
hard for political democracy. He is
going to win the fight for industrial
democracy.
The American workingman has so
long breathed the air of a democracy
that he hates patronage of paternal-
ism. While he appreciates a clean
shop and pure air, he despises the
splutter some folks are making about
social welfare work. All he asks is a
square deal. then he will not need
those benevolent enterprises.
The American workingman is not a
lawless revolutiOnist. Anarchy of the
bomb-throwing type does not appeal
to him. He is demanding that the
women folks shall receive equal pay
for equal work. He is the champion
of little children in his fight against
child labor. The American working
man is helping to Amercanize the
immigrant. No other institution is
doing more in this respect than Amer

Adhesive Eqqs of Fishes.

Among the fishes which produce ad-
hesive eggs are the little black head
minnow (Pimephales promelas) and the
goldfish. The male blackhead deposits
the formulated eggs singly upon the
underside of leaves OF water plants
and watches them increasingly until
Matched. The eggs of the goldfish are
deposited singly upon the weeds and
MOSES in a similar manner by the
male fish. The eggs of the yellow perch
are held together In narrow strips or
ribbons of a giutinous character Ad-
hesive eggs of other species, as the
black bass, sunfsh, catfishes, etc, are
deposited in masses in shallow nests or
depressions on the bottom, and still
other species deposit their spawn in
variously shaped adhesive masses upon
water plants. roots and submerged OBJ

BIRDS TONGUES.
Why the Parrot Is Able to Initiate HUI
man Speech.

Why the Parrot Is Able to Initiate HUI
man Speech.
One OF the government naturalists
at Washington has recently gathered
some fresh Information concerning the
tongues of birds.
Many people suppose that woodpeck-
ers use their sharp pointed tongues as
darts with which TO transtiX their
prey. It is true that the woodpecker,
like the humming bird. can dart out it's
tongue with astonishing rapidity and
that its mouth is furnished with an
elaborate mechanism for this purpose.
yet, according to the authority men
toned. investigation shows that the
object of this swift motion is only to
catch the prey, not to pierce it. For
the purpose of holding the captured
victim the woodpecker's tongue is fur
nished with q sticky secretion.
Considering its powers Of initiating
speech, it is not surprising to learn
that the parrots tongue resembles that
of man more closely than any other
birds. It is not because the parrot is
more intelligent than the other birds,
but because its tongue is better suited
for articulation than theirs, that it is
able 70 amuse US with its mimicry.
The humming birds tongue is in
some respects the most remarkable of
all. 1t is double nearly from end to
end, so that the little bird is able to
grasp its insect prey with its tongue
much as If its mouth was furnished
with pair of ngerS-Chicago Rec
