To the average mind these decisions say it is illegal
for employee to boycott employer and legal for
employer to boycott an employee
However good these decisions may be- they strike at
human rights and cannot fail to impair public confidence
in the courts of justice and destruction Of that confidence

A WONDERFUL CREATURE.
Born of a Snowdrift Crossed With a
Little Brown Hare.

Little Brown Hare.
Nature has tried many means of saw
ing her own from the snow death.
Some, like the woodchuck, she puts to
sleep till the SHOWS shall be over.
Others she teaches to store up food
md to hide. So she deals with the
wood mouse. To still others, as the
moose, she furnishes stills. The last
means she employs is snowshoes.
This, the simplest, most scientific and
best is the equipment of the snow
shoe rabbit, the wabasso of Hiawatha,
q wonderful creature born of a snow
drift crossed with little brown hare.
The moose is like wading bird OF
the shore that has stills and can wade
we'll for a space, but that soon reaches
the limit beyond which it is no better
off than land bird. But the snow
shoe is like the swimmer-it skins
over the surface where 1t will, not car
ing if there be one or thousand feet
of the element below it. In this lies
its strength.
Wabasso has another name, the vary
ing hare, because it varies in color
with the season, and the seasons in all
Its proper country are of two colors,
brown for six months, white for six.
So all summer long, from mid-April
to mid October, the northern hare Is
a little brown rabbit.
Then comes the snowy cold. The
brown coat is quickly shed, new
white coat appears, the snowshoe
grows fuller, and the little brown hare
has become a white hare, the snow
shoe hare of the woods.-Everybody's

TRAVELLING IN EUROPE.
What II Means to Ride Second Class on
the Railroads.

What It Means to Ride Second Class on
the Railroads.
A delusIon of the guidebooks is the
advice to ride second class on the rail-
roads of Europe. 1t is often pointed
out that first class and second class are
frequently but divisions Of the same
car, and this makes great impression
on the inexperienced traveller, particu-
larly If his purse is limited. Landing
at Plymouth. Southampton, Havre,
Cherbourg, Liverpool, you are at once
conveyed to London or Paris on steam
err trains" under the same excellent
conditions that have prevailed on your
trip, but thereafter you are at your
own resources, and If you are wise you
will not only travel first class, but you
will see to 1t that your seat is always
engaged well ahead. If you travel Sec
ond class between cities that CORE
spond to New York and Philadelphia,
say where intercourse Is frequent and
numerous, you will most likely have
to stand up in all second class COM
partments. To get second class seat
between Vienna and Budapest for ex-
ample, is about like boarding train
for Coney Island at Brooklyn bridge on
q summer Sunday afternoon, and II
you do get seat somebody else sand
witches and sausages on your lap.
Another point to be remembered is
that in Europe you cannot engage a
whole sleeping compartment for your
self, as you can here. You have to
show a ticket for each berth. There
fore 1t behooves the person travelling
alone at night to seek out before ar
ranging the trip some suitable com
panion or for parties Of three or five OF
| any odd number to make similar pro
visions. -Travel Magazine.

DINING IN WALL STREET.
What Lunch Hour Means to New
York's Financial District.

Works Financial District.
When one descends upon Wall street,
either from the Broadway slope of
Trinity church or from the Nassau
street hill, at noontime any week day
the air is fraught with many conflict
ing odors of the kitchen. From over
the roars of the clamoring curb folk
way down in the valley of Broad street
there arises from a score of cookeries
and Handouts" decided smell of the
stewpot blended with the ever glori-
GUS onion. From the caves of the New
York Stock Exchange come the more
pretentious fragrance of spiced meats
and strong coffee. From the basement
and attic alike, from cloud ticker and
antiquated frame house as well, come
all sorts of tuning evidences that the
men of affairs are eating. To realize
what this luncheon hour means to
Wall street one must stop to think OF
the thousands of persons who are in
that small district of the city at this
particular part of the day. Hundreds
Of restaurants meet the rush with
their doors flung wide. and their keep
ers have grown rich upon nickels and
dimes that fall into their tills like
mighty rataplan during those brief
hours of midday. Men have grown
rich and retired to palatial mansions
in the suburbs selling cup custards and
"sinkers' to millionaires, stenogra-
piers, clerks and bankers alike during
the busy hour or two at noon. Thou
sands of pounds of meat, countless
oysters and CLAIMS, barrels of gravy.
unaccountable gallons Of coffee and
tea and tons Of bread are consumed
every day in very brief period OF
time, and here. of all other places, the
foreigner has found justification for his
criticism of Americans for fast eating.

The Professor and the Child.
A German professor who is extreme
ly studious and detests being annoyed
in his studies was alone with the chill
dren one evening. They raced from
room to room until their father could
stand the noise no longer, and, losing
all patience, he rushed from his study
and ordered all of them to go to bed
at once. 1t was only twilight, and
they demonstrated, but to no avail.
All but one finally went upstairs sob
bling. The exception was little girl,
who positively refused to bulge an
inch. The professor ut last admins
tered slight corporal punishment, and
she dolefully followed her companions.
Soon afterward his wife broke in on the
professors now undisturbed studies.
and her first question was, "Where are
the chlldren?
He was forced to tell of their de-
pravity, and she ran upstairs.
Presently she returned in great ex-
element and cried out to her husband:
