Rules of the Strike Game.

John B. Green, New York lawyer,
writing in the September number Of
Case and Comment, lays down the
following present-day rules of law in
regard to strikes:
"Laborers act within their rights
when they strike. They have a right
to quit work, with or without cause.
and need give their reasons for doing
so to no one. This right is not ef-
fected by their quitting at once in
a body, pursuant to q preconcerted
agreement. The legal status Of the
parties to labor dispute, is pre-
cisely the same in both strikes and
lockouts. Workmen may rightfully
combine and work in common, in
any way that they believe will in
crease their earnings, decrease their
labor lessen their working hours,
or their condition. They have the
right to do this, either as individ-
uals, or by organization, into trades
unions.
"A strike or lockout equally termin.
ates the contract of employment.
Neither striking worlSmen nor the
employers of locked-ou laborers can
be compelled by law to return 10
work, or to reemploy the workmen
upon any terms or conditions.
both striking and locked-out
workmen have legal right to argue
or discuss with other workmen
brought or applying to take Their
places. to persuade them, if possible.
not to do so, provided neither violence
nor intimidation is used"

WISDOM FROM WEAK
ONES, is SHOWN HERE

An anecdote showing the sense
of humor may slumber in even the
dullest of brains, Is told by Franklin
B. Kirkbride, secretary of the board
of managers of Letchwork village for
the segregation of the feeble-minded
and epileptics in New York State;
A party was motoring through the
woodlands near the settlement. One
of the women in the party remarked
upon series of signs upon the trees
of what seemed the park of large
estate, "Letchwork Village, No.
Trespassing. She wondered whose
land they were on. Soon young
fellow was seen walking slowly along,
gardening tools in hand. One of the
men of the party asked of him:
WHO lives on this place."
"Fools live here! Some is on the
payroll and some amt" was the
reply made by the young fellow, who
turned out to be one of the inmates
of the village.
Those committed to the institution
have a pretty good time, for DR..

them feeling of self-respect and of
interest in their surroundings where
it is possible.
A group of lads were one day in

MY ANGELINE.

MY ANGELINA.

She was a pretty country miss, I
wished she could be mine.
took her to the huskin' bees and
when l had chance
put my arm around her waist and
asked her for to dance
She said them honeyed words to me
when she sat on my knees.
She made me think the moon, by
jing, was made of full cream
cheese.
She said she dearly loved to cook
and bake and sew and scrub,
And then is when some good friend
should have hit me with a club.
As l have said, she was a simple
miss, my Angelina
That is to say, she was when she
consented to be mine.
The weddin' 1t was beautiful, the
music was immense,
For pa-in-law, he staged the thing
regardless of expense.
AS soon as we got married she forgot
just how to cook,
But sat around all day and read an
Agnes Fleming book.
She couldn't find the time to make or
sweep or sew or scrub.
/ had to git a hired girl to rassle
with the grub.
My Angelina. the country lass, is
ketchin' on for fair.
she has to have woman come each
day and fix her hair.
She cannot trim her finger nails, the
thought she can't endure,
And so three times a week she has to
have a manicure.
She's got a lot of female help "a
hangin around the place;
She's got gal to hook her dress and
one to rub her face.
l thought I'd picked a cheap help
meet, it is enough to vex.
Although she was a simple lass she
has grown quite complex.
