A Little Love Song.

A Little Love Song.
When on my couch reclining,
Buried in pillows and night.
There hovers then before me
A form Of grace and light.
As soon as quiet slumber
Has closed my weary eyes,
Then softly does the image
Within my dream arise.
But with my dream at morning.
It never melts away:
For in my heart / bear it
Through all the livelong day.

 CHILD LABOR. Upon this subject Commissioner Sco- vile, ins his introduction, has this to say:
 Laws prohibiting the employment or Cn1lQr6n DelOW IOufleen Tn HI gain full pursuits are now operative in many states. Such laws should be uniform throughout the United States and rig idly enforced by means of employ ment certificates based on convincing evidence of age and physical examina- tion to determine fitness. As provision for free public education is made more adequate to present needs the mini mum age may be advanced to sixteen.
 Laws limiting the hours of labor of young persons over fourteen should be enacted. Protection here should ex- tend to sixteen, at least, in factory employment. and employment certtf- cates should be required of all under that age-'

 Referring to this subject the report

 .sThe strikes and lockouts of the year caused a loss of working time amounting to less than a quarter of population of the state exclusive of ag- ricultural laborers, who are not in cluded in the records.
 "As usual the question of wages were the most frequent cause of dis putes. As compared with previous years there was a decline in the pro- portion of work people who struck work to obtain an increase in wages.

PHOTOGRAPHS FOR
 TITAN BLONDES
All Those Who Attend Friday Matinee at PeIi's Will Receive Handsome Picture of Irene Franklin.

So great is Irene Franklin's popular ity proving at Polls this week, that the management has decided to set aside a special day in honor of the red haired queen of vaudeville and her sisters of the auburn treSSeS in Bridge port. Acting upon Miss F'ranklin's sug- gestion it was decided to inaugurate a ''Titian Special Matinee" for Friday afternoon. This will also be a Souve- mir matinee. The idea briefly is this: To every auburn haired lady who at- tends next Fridays matinee will be given a handsome and artistic auto graph photo of Miss Franklin.
 These photographs, which are now being finished at the Apeda Studios in New York, are works of art. They are handsomely finished. The sitting was made by one of the best known photographers in the East. The pose is one of Miss Franklin's favorites and the general result is symphony in lights and shades that is not only beautiful but decidedly novel.
 venir the Titan haired patrons who come to next Fridays matinee will thoroughly enjoy Miss Franklin in her inimitable and original songs including her famous hit Red Head" and her almost equally popular Expression" Miss Franklin is a decided type of ''red head" She has a luxuriant mass of sun-kissed tresses, and if woman's glory is in her hair, Miss Franklin is Miss Franklin, who is assisted by MT. Burt Green, a pianist of ability, the other acts of this weeks bill will please the auburn-haired patrons who attend the Titan Matinee next Friday afternoon.

 LIC HEALTH


 Plumbers. physicians and manufac- turers from all over the State appear ed before the committee of Public Health and Safety yesterday after noon at the hearing in Hartford on the bill providing for the licensing of plumbers.

 The bill provides for the establish ment of a Board of Plumbing Ex- anniners in all cities of 10000 or over. The board shall consist of three mem bers who shall be appointed by the from the board, one a master plumber, and the third a journeyman plumber: In places where there is no Board of Health the town health officer shall constitute one member of the bpardA The Mayor shall have the power to appoint the other two members.

 Those who appeared in favor of the bill from Bridgeport were R. T. Rock, the contracting plumber and M. B. Brewster-Greene, secretary of the Manufacturers Association.
