PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE

Geo. II. Murray, manager or the
''Top of the World" company gives
his idea of the philosophy of life
thus
Did it ever occur to you that a
mans life is full of crosses ana
foundations? He comes into the
world without his consent, and goes
out against his will, and trip is ex-
ceedingly rocky.
The rule of the contraries is one
of the features of this trip. When
he is little the big girls kiss him.
When he is big the little girls kiss
him.
If he is poor he is bad manager.
If he is rich he is dishonest. If he
needs credit he can't get 1t. If he
is prosperous everybody wants to do
him favor
If he is in politics it is for graft.
If he is out of politics he is no good
to the country. If he does not give
to charity he is a stingy cuss; If he
does it is for show.
II he is actively religious he is a
hypocrite. If he takes no interest
in religion he is a hardened sinner.
If he gives affection he is soft
specimen. If he cares for no one he
is cold blooded If he dies young
there was great future for him.
If he lives to an old age he missed
his calling.
If YOU save money you're a crouch;
If you spend it you're loafer;
If you get it you're a CRATER;
If YOU don't get it you're a bum;
So, what the hell's the use
Life is just one damn thing after
another.
Unless you see Bailey and Austin
in THE Top of The World.

few of them are unable to say. So
far regular instructions concerning
the matter have not been sent out,
and it is said there will be q state
wide movement In a number OF
matters of vital interest to the Spo.
kane unions.
Good news comes from the camp
of the Spokane Hotel and Restau-
rant Keepers Protective associa-
ton. Members declare that the pro-
posed raise in the price of meals
will not be made till after the holi-
days. This gives wider swath to
the Christmas shopper.
Nevertheless, there Is something
about this matter that keeps all
the employees of members of this
association sort Of puzzled and feel
ing foolish like, just the same as
the patrons. When the restaurant
and hotel keepers organized, they
pleaded to the wary unionists that
they wanted an association so they
could have a warehouse of their
own. in order that their profits
would not be so seriously affected
by the fluctuation of the markets.
Right now that warehouse, had 1t
ever been the real goods" would
be just the thing and ten to one the
prices on wiener wurst and sauer
kraut, mulligan stews. hot cakes
and the, like would not have to be
raised to afford the restaurateur a
fair profit.

coast, the Washington coast storm
center having been forced out on

twenty or thirty of them were con-

A POSSIBLE TRAGIC { Z {
TALE FOR E.T. BROWN

When E. T. Brown of Los An
geles, Cal. finds the woman for
whom he is searching, with the aid
of the police, he may learn that
she has drifted to the depths of
the underworld and is insane, from
the effects Of dissipation.
Chief Of Police Sullivan received
a letter from Brown this morning
asking the aid of the local authori-
ties in a search for one Hattie May
Richardson, long since lost to her
relatives, and for whom he has
information of very important
nature. The description of the
missing woman, as furnished in
Browns letter, tallies with that
of Hattie May Raymond. now
claimed to be in the Medical Lake
asylum as the result of heavy
drinking during her life in Spo-
kane's slumS.
Not only is the description the
same as would apply to the Ray

mond woman, but Browns mention
of the fact that the woman he Is
seeking, formerly occupied a room
in the Monica lodging house, con-
firms the belief of the police that
the inmate of the insane asylum Is
the one for whom the search Is
being made.
1t is believed that the informa-
ton held for the wandering wom-
an by Brown concerns her family.
Perhaps one of the members is
dead and an estate has been left
to her. Hattie Raymond was COM
mitted to the asylum several
months ago, after numerous ex-
periences with the police and the
municipal court.
Hattie May Richardson is "a
years of age, five feet six inches
tall, weighs somewhere near $50
pounds, light hair, blue eyes and
has a long scar just beneath her
jaw, on. one side of her neck.

Reports received at Miss Horn
burg's headquarters at the mayors
office indicate that the charitable
people of the city have literally
patronized the tag vendors and that
the receipts will net handsome
fund for the cause. One little girl
on the north side had sold over $50
worth of stamps by noon. -.
The fund to be raised by the tag
day receipts will be kept separate
from the regular fund of the Asso-
ciated Charities, under whose au-
spices Miss Hornburg labors, for
the sole purpose. of affording relief
in the sick room of homes that need
comforts.
The fund will especially be serv-
iceable in affording relief in tuber-
cular cases, many of which are on
the list of patients visited daily by
the visiting nurse. Miss Hornburg
sees lots of sorrow and misery in
her trips. and the fund will be of
great assistance in enabling her to
gle relief in deserving cases.

In addition to her poor pay and
responsibility for breakages, 1t is
estimated that the unorganized res
taurant waitress walks 10 miles and
carries 1900 pounds during a 10
hour watch" In many of the non
union restaurants these girls are
compelled to fit themselves with
aprons or uniforms of a special
fashion at their own expense, and
to pay for the laundering of them
from their own scant wages.
Pleasant life, isn't It? When girls
in such places are not busy waiting
on the tables, they are supposed to
be picking over fruit, ironing or
folding napkins and cleaning the
silverware. The organized wait
resses have their aprons and uni
forms and the laundering of the
same furnished by their employers.
In many places they have estab-
lished the 10 hour day and the six

they are at leisure from 2 till S
