Washington, Dec. 19-The first au-

which President Taft has programmed

When the garment workers in Mil
waukee walked out, the strike-bound
firms, as usual, went to the chief OF
police for sluggers and proVocateurs.
The employers must do two things
in strike:
They must get the public sentiment
in their favor; they must create dis
cord among the strikers.
If the employers can create riots
and charge it to the strikers they get
public sentiment turned their way.
The best rioters are the police, espe-

The old tactics were about to be

former administration was willing to
lend his aid to the employers.

CITY Can Pave

Officials.

Milwaukee, Dec. 17.--Street paving,
which under the prevailing method of
giving the jobs to the contractors is a
prolific source of graft in all big cities,
could be done by the city and the
problem solved cheaply and well.
Superintendent of Street Construc-

must do it's own work. Under that
system paving could be laid and main

many here as way of meeting the

Salaries are Increased.
Increases in salary for city EN- :
ployes in various departments with a
view to making the compensation
more adequate in relation to the high
cost of living were passed by the city
council. Increased efficiency and bet

THAT OLD oAKEN BUCKET.
War lis Waged ON the Romantic
UtensiI and Its Companions.

War lis Waged ON the Romantic
UtensiI and Its Companions.
Since the germ theory got us in its
grip the romance of the old oaken
bucket, the moss-covered bucket" with
its companion, the rustic gourd or old
tin dipper, has waned. As a pic
turesque decoration of the farm yard
the moss-covered bucket is very good,
but the enlightened grown-up, with a
knowledge of hygiene, finds his entnu-
siasm for its use, in common with
every passer-by. decidedly disturbed,
says the New Idea Womans Magazine.
And so it is with the tin bucket of
the schoolroom, with the dipper drop
ped back into it after each drinkers
thirst is quenched War is being
waged on that bucket and on the COM
mon dipper or drinking cup in all
public places. 1t is a campaign of edu-
cation and the purpose Is to prevent
disease and to minimize the slaughter
of the ignorant.
The danger that turks in the COM
mon drinking cup is silent, unseen and
frequently unsupported, and therefore
has long been ignored. But with the
public conscience awakening to the
dangers of infection from tuberculosis
and other diseases and its mind stirred
to the possibilities of prevention the
cutlery against the public drinking cup
a source of many evils-is newt
able. Within a years time-even in
six months-there has been a tremend-
Gus feeling created on the subject.
The boards of health of three different
states-kansas, Michigan and Missis-
sippi-have passed ordinances abolish
ing public cups. The New Jersey
board has asked railway companies
whose trains pass through the state to
use individual cups. The New York
state board of health has passed a
resolution condemning public drinking
cups. Various cities have forbidden
the use of common drinking utensils
in schools and public places.
The manufacture of parafin paper
cups that sell for a penny has helped
to solve the problem of providing
hygienically for the thirst of the pub
lie.
In many department stores and bust
ness places in the large cities and on
the trains of several railway lines
these cups have recently been intro
duced. They come in automatic ven
de~s that operate in the same way as
the chewing gum and chocolate ma
chimes.
In a few years we will doubtless
look upon the common drinking cup
as a symbol of barbarism and when

THE BUSINESS GIRL.
Hints That Will Enable Her to Win
Her Way.

Girls desiring to enter upon a business
career must impress upon their minds
the fact that an employer appreciates
women who can seize his ideas and fol-
low them out without asking a thousand
and one questions They must not think
that because they are girls an employer
should be more Considerate toward them
and their shortcomings than he would
be toward those of a man.
Then, again, some girls are apt to be
oversensitiye when they first enter an
office, store or warehouse, and consider
that every little thing done we'll is de-
serving of praise from their employers.
Perhaps 1t may be, but in five cases out
of six the employer has no time to praise
his assistant. If a girl knows and be-
lieves she is doing her very best, even
in the smallest detail, she will have the
reward of a quiet conscience, and
kindly employer will not forget a word
of encouragement voluntarily from time
to time.
A girl should take every opportunity
of improving her talents. She should
not be afraid of doing a little extra work,
or think that she was doing more than
her share when her employer asks her
to do a little Overtime" Nothing is
lost by it in the long run. Too many
women are penny wise and pound
foolish" forgetting that whatever fur
theirs the interests of the house that EN-
ploys them will eventually further Their
own, provided, of course, they are indus
trious, energetic and faithful
Success is a plant which requires CON
slant care of oneself and ones work #
it is to flourish, and the girl who viii
succeed in all phases of life is undoubr
eddy the one who knows herself and her
capabilities, and has the tact and faculty
to use that knowledge to the best ad-
vantage.

WHEN WIDOWS PREFER TO WED
French Statistics Raise Question,
Which Are Hard TO Answer.

French Statistics Raise Question:
which Are Hard TO Answer.
The French have been compiling
some statistics as to the ages at which
women most frequently seek husbands.
The figures as published show that
widows of 20 or younger and those of
80 or over are as ready for another
husband as the maiden for her first
one. But between the ages of 20 and
80 the desire for a successor to the
departed one appears to be lacking.
Just what is responsible for this
state of affairs cold facts and figures
fail to show" says the Washington
Herald. commenting on this phenome-
non. 1T is not a question of mathe
mates, but of heart pulsations, and as
yet no machine or instrument has
been invented which can keep account
of Cupid and his wiles. 1t is need
less to so deeply into these figures,
but 1t is possible that between the
ages of 20 and 30 the widow Is so
charming and so attractive that her
suitors are so numerous she Is I'M
able to decide which one to favor.
Then, again, 1t Is possible that she Is
content with her station, whereas pre-
vious to 20 she is so young as to feel
the necessity for some protector: while
after the age of 80 she is eager to
wed lest she be left without life
