IF you found it easier to do your
washing on Tuesday than on Monday, you
would change at once. Sensible women
would Yet there are some women who
still wash clothes in the old-fashioned, hard
rubbing way, just because their mothers
taught them so.
Are you wearing out yourself and your
clothes boiling and rubbing? Why not
try FelS-Naptha soap? It's the new, mod
ern way of washing. Use it in cold or
lukewarm water-no boiling or hard-rub-
bing and your clothes will be cleaner,
whittier, and wear longer.
Follow directions on the red and green
wrapper.

GERMANY TO EXTEND
ITS INSURANCE LAW
Old Age 1nvalidity Pensions to
Be Given to All Branches of
Trade and Workmen.
New Law Will Effect Over 2,000,-
900 Laborers- Great Unan-
unity for Measure.

BERLIN, Nov. 23.-The reichstag
has read for the first time and sent
to a special committee the new bill
providing for the compulsory insur-
ance of employees.
The purpose" of the bill is to "i1x-
tend-without state aid-the advan-
tages of compulsory insurance against
invalidity and old age to practically
all categories of employed persons
who are not subject to the provisions
of the workmen's insurance scheme,
and whose incomes do not exceed
$1,000 a year.
1t is calculated that the new law
will affect over 100000 employees.
The contributions Of employers and
employed will be equal, and, accord
Aing to the government bill, are grad
uated up to a maximum joint con-
tribution of per cent of the insured
income.
It is quite reasonable that the de-
tails of the bill will undergo consider
able alterations in committee, but
there seems to be general unan-
unity as to the general provisions,
and it is predicted that it will receive
the sanction of the legislative body
during the present session.

BROTHERHOOD.

A little more cross and little less
creed,
A little more beauty of brotherly
deed:
A little more bearing of things to be
borne,
With faith in the infinite triumph of
morn.
A little less doubt and a little more
do
Of the simple, sweet service each day
brings to view;
A little more cross, with it's beauti-
full light
Its lesson of love and it's message of
right;
A little less sword and a little more
To soften the struggle and tighten the
blows;
A little more worship, a little more
prayer,
With the balm of it's incense to-
brighten the care;
A little more song and a little less
sigh,
And cherry good-day to the friends
that go by,
A little more cross and a little more
trust
In the beauty that blows like a rose
out of dust;
A little more lifting the load of an
other,
A little more thought for the life of
a brother;
A little more dreaming, a little more
laughter,
A little more childhood, and sweet
ness hereafter;
little more cross and little less
hate,
With love in the hands and a rose by
the gate.

by the fact that the paid up and re-
ported membership for the month of
September, 1911, is 1.763,614, which
indicates that Notwithstanding the
hostile forces that are working against
the labor unions, that the coming
year will show an increase over the
membership reported upon this year.
So that it may be seen at a glance
the marvellous growth in membership

the above chart has been prepared
to indicate the membership for each

Being Hungry and Foot
Sore.

Chicago Its walk OF 2S7 miles
from Evansville. Ind, to Chicago, and
there aren't any sign posts on the
way that dog can read: but this is
the trip that John Cummings. janitor
OF the fiat building at 645I Monroe
avenue. says his dog Rex completed. i
Rex disappeared two months previ-
GUS and hadn't been seen at the Cum
mings residence since until be APP
peared gaunt and footsore, but with
wagging tall and happy eyes. His ef-
fusive greetings to the members OF
the Cummings family left no doubt In
their minds that he had worn himself
thin just to get back to his old home
again.
He took up his duties where be left
them of when he went away, and al
ley cats left his neighborhood ana
late pedestrians heard the growl that
told the Cummings watch dog was
again on the Job.
Mr.. Cummings insists that there
isn't any doubt but that. the dog trav-
3eled from southern InHiana to Chi
cago because he recently received in:
formation that the dog had been sent
to that place.
When the animal first disappeared
Mr.. Cummings thought the dog catch
ers had captured him. A hurried trip
to the dog pound was made. but no
trace OF the pet could be found. Then
his master received information that
former owner OF the dog had him.
The man denied this report when Mr.
Cummings asked him about II. Then
another tip came to the effect that
the dog had been sent to Evansville.
Anyway, Rex has returned and II
he could talk he would tell long
story OF his travels, II his starved
body and worn out feet are any indi-
cations Of the length OF his journey.
He won't lack for anything to eat
from now on" the happy janitor said.
"and I'd like to see any one else set
that dog from me-"
