Louis F. Swift, president of the
great Swift packing company, was
the star witness before the after
noon session of the OHara low
wages commission yesterday.
And on the stand Swift compared
at least favorably with shopkeepers
like the LeSmanns, the Simpsons,
the Basches, or factory owners like
the Rosenwalds and Thornes, who
had gone before.
For Swift admitted he was not
likely to go to the poorhouse If he
were to pay his women employees a
living wage, and that an So a week
minimum wage LAW would be ''rea-
sonable."
But Swift also showed a remark
able lack of knowledge of the rotten
conditions in the region Back o. the
Yards" and he did not say he would
raise his women employees to living
wage voluntarily when Eeut.-Gov.
O'Hara asked him why he did not
play the man and beat the state to it.

acted just about the way hired SUI
perintendents might be expected to
act.
Swift oozed his long length down
the aisle and into the witness chair
very slowly, almost as if he were en-
joying the craning of necks that had
gone with the calling Of his name.
He was sworn and gave his name
and address.

Swift referred to a paper. '.Six

The members of the commission
looked skeptical.
What is the lowest you pay any
girl?" asked O'Hara,
''Six dollars" said Swift, without
batting an eye. - ~.-.-=4

I
The research laboratory of The Swift

Of information regarding the spread of
blood diseases. In thousands of instances
the most vlrulent types have been the re-
suit of coming in contact with disease
germs In public places, and the apparent
ly insignificant pimple has been the
cause. 1t spreads with astonishing ra-
pidity, often injecting the entire system
in few days.
1t Is fortunate, however, that there is
a remedy to cope quickly and thoroughly
with such condition, and thanks to the
energy Of its producers the famous
S. S. S. may now be had at almost any
drug store in the civilized world.
This preparation stands alone among
specific remedies as blood purifier. It
Is somewhat Revolutionary in its compo-
sition, since It accomplishes all that was
ever claimed for mercury, iodides, arsenic
and other destructive mineral drugs, and
yet 1t ia absolutely purely vegetable
product. There are more cases OF artic.
tllar rheumatism, loconotor ataxia, pa
resis, neuritis and similar diseases result.

0rv Feed or Wet Mash?

The wet mash OF Cornmeal and bran
that used to be the standard morning
feed Of the farm fock seems to be
going out in favor Of the hopper full
Of a mixture Of dry ground grain. The
new plan is better for large nOcks, but
for a small flock the wet mash has
advantages.
For one thing it is easier to keep
I'D the water supply than where the
fowls are given all dry grain, says
American Cultivator. Another point
Is that the constant presence Of dry
feed attracts rats, while the wet mash
as usually fed will be eaten up clean.

No, No, My Dear Patty!

Oh, golly- whoop! Shoo-fly!
Booger.man! This is the limit. |
have before me a letter from a
fool Irishman who claims to be a
Socialist and a Catholic, and it
seems like The Fool-Killer has
got sorter next to some OF his
tender places. He just rears and
charges like a mad stud-hoss,
and it would take nine Philadel-
phia lawyers to find out what he
is mad about. Poor little Patty!
He probably has an idea that his
duck-fit will have a powerful in
fluence on The Fool. Killer, but
he is sure barking up the wrong
tree this time. However, there
is one expression in this pitifuI
echo from an empty head that l
must notice. After rip-staving
all over the page in an attempted
defense of the infidels, he winds
up by saying:
Il am a Catholick, and so
are you.'
Oh, for the love of Mike! l
have been called about every
thing else bad, but that is the
first time I was ever accused of
being a Roman Catholic. A very
little of that is too much. Call me
a Bull Moose or a Bull Goose;
call me a Populist; call me a So
cialist; yea, even call me a Taft
tie or a Democrat if you must,
but for heavens sake, don't add
insult to injury by calling me a
Roman Catholic.

an inch long, and he can easily
jump five feet, or 900 times his
own length. The average man is
nearly six feet tall. In order to
jump as far as Mr. Flea Consider
ing the size of the jumper a man
would have to jump something
over amile. And wouldn't that be
some jumping, though? If you
could jump $50 times your own
length, you could draw a bigger
crowd than all the circuses and
soon be richer than John Rob-a-
Teller. And yet the little old pesky
flea can do that and we never
think anything about it.
If there was an animal a million
times bigger than you are, I think
you'd be sorter careful how you
messed, with it. You wouldn't be
apbto crawl up its leg and bite it
on the belly or the shoulder blade.
You'd be afraid. But you are a
million times bigger than a flea,
and he don't ask you one bit of
odds. He just shoulders his little
meat-axe and goes galloping over
your. mortal corporosity any time
he feels like it, and the only thing
you can do is to claw and cuss.
And so it seems to me that even
the flea possesses some traits of
character that we might learn to
admire if we would just 60 at it
in the right way.
Therefore | say unto you, con

failure to prohibit all drunkenness
is not so much the fault of the
law-it is more the fault of the
red nosed hypocrites who refuse
to enforce the law. Lots Of the
two-faced rascals who openly favor
a prohibition law are secretly op-
posed to it's enforcement. I have
ten times more respect for the
fellow who openly advocates lik-
ker than / do for the big-mouthed
hypocrite who claims to be a pro-
hlbltlOnlst who talks 1t and votes
it-and then sneaks off and fills his
miserable old freckled hide with
cheap likker when he thinks no
one will find it out. The woods
are full of such cattle, and many
of them occupy high places in
society, church and state. Such
men make me tired. When they
get away from home and reach q
wet town they bust their gee string
getting into the back door of the
first saloon they can find and soak
their h%ypocritical old paunches
with lanyard likker until they
are so drunk they couldn't hit the

Mr.. X. of C.. Played a Joke On

Chicago, Illinois,
August 9Th, 1918.

The Fool-Killer,
One of our defenders of
the Pope" tx. of c. friends
found the July issue Of your pa
per on the car the other morning,
and in it noticed what he thought
was a slam at Masonry. He did
MT notice the "Plutocratic Pray
err" however, and handed your
paper to a Mason. When the
Prayer was read by several of
the boys they became very inter-
ested and wanted to subscribe for
the paper. The K. Of C. got wise
to what he had handed out, and
made a grab for the paper and
burned it. Not until one Of us
had taken your address, though,
thank goodness. Everyone who
read the Prayer has subscrib-
ed for your paper, and if VIE had
a few sample copies I believe we
could get a few hundred sub
scribers here at the shop. We
have approximately one thousand
subscribers to The Menace" in
our factory. Enclosed find three
dollars $500 for twenty yearly
subscriptions as per the attached
list. Kindly start these off with
the July issue if possible.
Very sincerely,
