Fl k Al r, BERT DAVIS

-l -N After the paper had been read. IT. Y Kane and Ben A Davis. in behalf of the proposition then entered into q three hour long discussion with tha members of the board relative to the propriotv of putting such matters into the charter. The labor representatives were pitted against such keen minds as those of former Governor Kibbey. II. F. Wilkinson, J. T.. F. Alexander. r.. X. Fowler, Frank Trott. and other members Of the board of freeholdcre. It seemed also that the protagou- ists were but very little distance apart Judge Kibbcy held that ii would hardi be proper for many of the matters even though advocated by the unions to be placed in the basic law of the city. He said that he was an ard ant believer in trades unionism, but at tho same time believed that the natural course had been properly taken by th" unions heretofore in getting themselves into such positions as to demand with in their rights-ccrtain things from the employers of labor He said he hardly believed it the province of government to legislate upon these things belieV- ing that agreement between the em- ploVer and cmplOye to be much bette" than that, and much more demonstra- tive of the worth of the Iaboring man.
 MT. Davis conceded part of the statement but cOntended that there were so many Iaboring men employed who were not educated up to the point where they could see the advantage of cO-operation for mutual advantage and thus demanding what was due them, hence the desire to protect them hy means of legislation This part of the argument came directly upon the mini mum wage proposition
 Another interesting point was brought out in which it was found that Mr. Fowler agreed absolutely with Mcssrs Kane and Davis. This was in the matter of the city engaging in in dustriaI pursuits and the arrests for vagrancy It was the common opinion of these gentlemen that d man should not be arrested for Vagrancy simply because he has no money and no job, unless the opportunity to work had been extended to him and he had re- fused.

In the Woman's Home Companion
appears a story In " hich is related an
account of a prescription given to an
exceedingly stingy farmer by doctor.
The farmer took the prescription to the
druggist. The druggist told the farmer
that he could not ill the prescription
and said to the farmer. "If you will
read it yourself you will see why"
whereupon the farmer adjusted his
glasses and read to his establishment:

iron With Their Feet.

One of the most curious sights which
beheld In Cairo was men ironing with
their feet. says wl.ter In the Wide
World Magazine. They had not been
mixing their drinks. 1t is simply q
custom of the country. These men
were employed In the native tailoring
establishments. Except for a long
iron handle, the irons were shaped like
the ordinary fatiron. only larger. A
solid block of wood rested on the top
Of the iron, and on this the men placed
one foot, guiding the iron in the direc-
tlon desired by means of the handle.
For the sake of convenience the IRON
ing boards were rnised only a few
Inches above the ground. The men
ironed with great rapidity. and, how
ever strange the method may seem to
our ideas, 1t certainly does the work
very well and expeditiously.
