THE federal bureau Of labor, after de-

TENS in Europe has put out a report in
which it presents a study of the in
rurance and compensation systems for
the benefit of workmen in case of ac-
cident, sickness, old age, invalidity and
unemployment in II European coun-
tries. Charles P. Neill, commissioner
Of labor, believes the report will be
of peculiar interest to working men
in the United States at this time, in
view of the fact that the subject of
workmen's insurance is a live subject
and one discussed in the legisla-
ture of nearly every state He points
out that within recent years eight
states, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachu-
setts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New
York, Ohio and Wisconsin, as well as
the federal government, have appoint
ed commissions to study methods of
compensating workmen for disability
incurred in the course of their en-
ployment AS a result of these activ-
tiles one state, New York, has al
ready enacted compensation laws of

Pastor Says Wealthy Members Of Fair
Sex Refuse to Exchange Riches
or Barter for Titles.

Chicago.-The American young men,
Tand not the young women of today, are
the ones who are becoming "hen mind
ed" declared the Rev. Percival H.
Barker pastor of the haywood Con
gregational church, in an address be-
fore the Hull House Woman's club.
DR.. Barker placed the average Amer
lean woman of wealth upon a high
plane, picturing her as a woman of am
bition and intellectual attainments He
said the women who were a peril to
the American home were those who
have a champagne taste with only
beer income.
Mclaughlin of the University of Chi
cago, who in a recent magazine ar
ticle, condemned women of wealth for
Incidence and lack of ambition.
The ordinary woman of wealth re-
fuses to exchange her wealth or barter
her name for empty titles. She would
rather live with a plain ordinary Amer.
lean with no title except his manhood;
no castle except his character, and no
wealth except a strong right arm and
true heart; would rather dwell with
such a man in a shack over which
waved the stars and stripes than live
with any prince, count or no account
in some lordly castle filed with dusty
portraits of defunct ancestry.
Lincoln pleaded with women to up
hold the home, the school, the church
and the political meeting. He saw
that woman had high mission in life
to serve. Lincoln gave his mother
great credit when he was praised for
his goodness and his attainments.
I'VE have few women who are hen
and we can see a greater
peril in the lack Of intellectually
among our young men. 1t is truest to
