ON THE SKYSCRAPER
STRENUOUS LIFE is THAT OF
THE IRoNWoRKER.
Well Styled "cowboys of the Skies"
the Men Who Erect City's Tall
Buildings Always Have the
Crowds.

In the past they we're boisterous,
swashbucking lot. They 'floated from
New Orleans to Vancouver lived in
freight cars, built bridges and dropped
off of them with grin and choking
"good-by." A hero among them was
a man who had the longest fall to his
credit, or who could toss white-hot
rivet the greatest distance. They lived
hard and died easily. Today they
know that man stands highest on
the pay roll who takes his work and
its danger most seriously, who also
watches the man next to him-for in
this calling one mans error often
means another's life. Harper's Week
ly says.
Even so the bridgeworker of today
has not lost his romantic side. He Is
still the cavalier of the workaday
world. See him now, clinging like a
fly to the top ring of that lofty derrick,
or swaying in midair with one, leg
wound carelessly about a dangling
cable, or standing upright alongside a
dizzy column, hundreds of feet above
the ground, with nothing more sub
stantial under his clnging toe than
an inch-wide bolt! The plumber lay
ing pipes in the dark basement gets
just as high wage and his work is
quite as important. But the ironwork-
er gets the eyes of the crowd and
knows it. Cowboys of the skies"
they have been styled, and aptly So.
They have many characteristics in
common with their brethren of the
plains. They love dare and a scam
pering race. Often they make and
have them-when the boss Is not
watching Just recently two sky
scrapers in New York raced up side
by side-a veritable Marathon of the
skies!-and prodigies Of daring and
foolhardiness were done by the rival
gangs facing each other across the in
tervening side-street They stole each
others hats and wrenches as they
sailed up atop the loads of iron, danced
giddy hornpipes on the ends of pro-
jecting beams, tried to best" each
other taking chances amid the pande-
monium of whip-snapping cables and
swinging iron.
They affect eXtravagances and Pc
culiarities of dress. That athletic-look-
ing fellow with the grimy face and
hands appears on idle Sundays In
white fannels and silk hose. The man
beside him Is a favorite at bridge
mems dances and has been known to
wear and grace frock-coat. They
made no serious complaints over the
new order of things-the rush Of the
work Sure" said one, "it's all right,
only it's over nowadays before you
get your second wind"
Said another: This going up at a
story a day interferes with me social
life. On that 18th street building
there was a hotel within arms reach,
and one day I got to talking with a
pretty -maid-through a window. Next
day / had to talk down to her and
next | had to yell to her, and in two
days more had to say good-by.
'Goodby!' says she. Sorry to see
you go; but I'll introduce you to my
friend Katie who works on the tenth
floor"

Take Good Care of Your Gloves.


Gloves \are another item about
which many do not concern them
selves sufficiently. A soiled glove
looks as badly as a soiled collar, yet
no one would think of wearing the
latter. whereas gloves that reek with
dirt and germs are worn with the
greatest disregard for appearances
and hygiene. Fastidious women find
the chamois glove a delightful substi-
tute for the regular kid, as it can be
washed when soiled, wears as well as
any other, and is much more comfort
able. Gloves, like stockings, should be
mended the moment they begin to
show wear; in fact. every garment re-
uuires constant inspection to keep II
in condition and always ready for use.
