on which settlement propositions hav ,
been wrecked in the past, a compro-
mise satisfactory to the union was
reached The employers agreed that

given to union MEMBERS A nine hour
workday with Saturday half-holiday;
a wage rate ranging from SO to $25 a
week, with higher wages for piece
workers; free power to operate ma
chimes; sanitary board and an arbi-
tration commission are among the con-
cessions.
END CAME OPPORTUNITY
The end Of the strike came oppor-
timely The strikers are rescued from
starvation and the employers will save
nearly all of their contracts. The strik
ers have lost 81, 100000 week for nine
weeks and the manufacturers many
times ais much. Although bankers,
business men and real estate brokers
admit it will take months for condi-
lions to become normal, 1.-The arbitra-
ten agreement promises peace for
years to come.

the saloonkeepers NEEDED friends In
Boston. Union cigars were almost i'm
possible to secure in any Boston saloon,

securing of a cigar not of union make
was difficult in the city Of "kulchar.

We Crow.

Josh Killings said, "I luv a
rooster fer tew things-one IS the
krow that is IN him, and the 9th
er Is the spurs tew back up his
krow with" Perhaps you think
we "crow" too much about our
RexdU Remedies, but we have
the spurs to back up our "crow, "
and If you don't believe 1T, Wdde
in and see.
Noah was the first man to ad-
vertise. He advertised the flood.
Noah didn't have very many low
ing friends to advertise for him,
but RexaH Remedies have. Ev-
eryone who uses a RexdX rem
edy advertlses it, because he
knows 1t is good, a1d wants to
pass a good thing along.
A man using RexdXRemedy
is just like a man who smiles a
smile; for when he smiles, anoth-
er smiles, and soon there are
miles and miles of smiles, and
life's worth while for many, just
from one smile.
And speaking of smiles-we
have mber of things to make
people smile. There are the
Rexall Watches, guaranteed good
time keepers, for 81 90; one of
them would make any boy on
earth smile. Then, there is Rex
all Candy. There is a smile IN ev
cry bite of it. Some Fountain
Pens do not have smile about
them, but the RexaU Fountain
Pen Is constant source of smiles
and satisfaction prices from
$1.00 to 50 30. Then there Is the
new-eHfIreLv Hew and Rp-fo-

are in connection with 1t. The

That makes her smile; she an

nothing denotes good stationery
more than the Rexall mark of
quality. A fine line of linen
