Secretary Straus does not believe IN
wrenching the contract labor law out
of it's legitimate function Of protecting
American labor. He has recently ad-
mitted to the United States Cana
dian girl who desired to enter train
ing school for nurses. Because all the
girls who take the training course are
allowed a small compensation, she was
at first denied admission, as contract
laborer. The secretary remarks that
training schools for nurses are among
the most humane of educational insti'
tutions, and the fact that certain work
is required as a part of the training
and certain compensation allowed for
it, does not make the student a con
tract laborer

What the Mouth Denotes.

A certain philosopher declares that
woman is known by her mouth. Not
by the words that issue therefrom, but
by the shape ana color Of the lips, and
the lines and dimples that gather about
this important feature He is supported
in his theory by physiognomists, VINO
all endeavor to impress us with the
fact that no woman with the small red
Tipped, Cupid bow" mouth, SO praised
in song aud story, was ever intellectual
or generous of heart; and 1t is consol-
Jag 10 those whose mouths are not bn
accordance with the lines Of beauty
laid down by the poets to be told that
a wide, straight mouth, with strong
white teeth" denotes the woman OF su-
perior intelligence, goodness of heart,
strength of mind and a thousand and
one other sterling qualities, which we
all like to think we possess says the
New York Weekly. 1t is the fashion
at present to hold the lips very slight
~ apart. This is supposed to give that
innocent, wistful, wonderful expression
which was the peculiar property of
the heroines of old-fashioned novels,
but which bicycle riding and kindred
modern amusements have caused to
vanish.
