when twilight mystery
Fills the summer air,
In her primrose broderie
Comes my lady fair,
From the furnished frame OF gold
With her witehing grace OF old,
Like a dainty rose in bloom,
Stepping thro' the silent room.
Then like sily'ry music stored
in silent shell,
Doth my ladys harpsichord
Waken at her spell,
rom the sladowland doth float
Thinking from its rusty throat.
Loye-songs that she sang maybe
In . bygone century.
FADED roses at her breast
Fragrance shed around,
Like the breath Of roses pressed
IN some missal found,
Then the music seems to die
With the trembling of a sigh;
From her furnished frame of gold
Smiles my lady as OF old.

ployers expected an easy victory.
However, the Jap laborers not
only formed a union, but they in
troduced military tactics and their
organization operated like clock
work. The. thousands of strikers
were divided into squads, captained
by the most intelligent among
them; the roll was called twice a
day; leave of absence could only
be obtained by securing a pass
bearing a time limit; a commits
sariat was conducted, supplies
purchased through bidders, meals
were wholesome and regularly
served and the housing was care
fully looked after. Even court
martials were introduced and Of
tenders were penalized in various
ways. !.
Finally the plantation owners
who imported the Japs were COM
PEELED to make important conces-
siOns, after losing millions of dol
lars, to end the strike. In Homo
lulu the people are saying that the
Asiatics have taught the Ameri-
cans how to strike.

70 years old, has been retired by
the Evansville & Terre Haute rail-
way on full pay.
For the rest of his life Baker
will draw conductors pay as he
has done for so many years in the
past. There was no precedent or
rule Of the company to provide
this. The directors voted the pen
sion to him specially when the old
man sent in word that the time
had come for him to step down.
Baker began railroading at II,
working first with the old Vandalia
railroad, then termed the Pump
kin Vine" Before that even he
had been a water boy for section
gangs.
He soon went over to the Evans
vile & Terre Haute, however, and
for Al years consecutively has had
the passenger run between the
two towns. He retires with an an
nual pass, of course, and as he is
still in sturdy health, despite his
10 years, will see a little of the
country before he dies.

Employers in the extreme west
who have been looking with more
or less favor upon the importation
of Japanese laborers on the
ground that they are more tract
able than white or black workers,
may learn to their sorrow that the
yellow peril is not mere bug

fearful of Asiatic competition.
l have been informed by a
United States government employe
at Honolulu that the strike of some
10000 Japanese plantation laborers
in the Hawaiian islands was one
of the bitterest struggles ever
waged in any land. The money
losses mounted high into the mil
lions.

The Human
Bake Oven
Cures Eczema

Eczema is a parasitic condition
destroying the healthy tissue which
infects the surrounding tissues. We
have yet to find case that the
Bake Oven can not cure. This is
disease which many people are af-
flicted with. They try every
known medicine without results.
Most cases of from 10 to 20 years
standing have given up all treat
ment or any idea that they ever
will be cured. 1t is that class of
people we especially invite to in
vestigate the wonderful merits of
the Human Bake Oven. When we
say that the Bake Oven cures
eczema we know just what we are
talking about, as past experiences
has taught us that not one single
case has it failed to perform per-
manent cure.
The Human Bake ovens are To-
Gated at the Washington San
itarium, where many people are
treated daily, and it would be a
revelation to any one to visit for
one hour and talk with the patients
that are being treated and you
certainly will be convinced as to
the wonderful benefits that can be
derived by this treatment. If you
are suffering, investigate, as con-
sultation and examination Is as
free as the air you breath.

by score of % to %.
the first half ended IL to 8, but the
altitude began to tell on the Canon
boys and they were unable to main

second half against Guy Miller. Guy
is a pretty husky boy, but fails to see
why two men should be allowed the
fun of pushing his head un er the ra-
diator.
The Cripple Creek players showed
by their superior team work that they
had more practice but are yet behind
South Canon in quickness and accur-
acy in goal shooting. Guy Miller was
the star of the evening at throwing
field goals. while Earle Newton gives
promise of becoming a sure foul
thrower Fred Gerlack at center out
jumped his opponent every time, bat
