Kitten In Revolt.

A remarkable ISL Of fiiial ingratl.
tude ON the part of a black kitten has
occurred in Liverpool, England. A
few days ago a customer threw a
piece of meat between them. which
was secured by the mother cat. 70
the sqrprise Of everybody, the kitten
sprang at his mother and drove her
out Of the house. Since then he has
mounted guard over the doors to pre-
vent her return, and, although she
has attempted time after time to re-
turn to her ola home, her stern. un-
bending, and ungrateful son bars the
way.

uWise-Acre.v

'Wise-acre" has its origin in Ben
Jonson's retort to a countryman who
boasted interminably of his acres, till
Ben said: What signify to is your
dirt and your clods? Where you have
an acre of land | have ten acres Of
wit" The countryman retorted by
calling Ben Good Mr.. Wiseacre."
This is a good story, but perhaps the
term wiseacre comes from the corrup-
ton of the German, weissager, a wise

l. do believe in simplicity. 1t is as
tonishing as we'll as sad, how many
trivial affairs even the wisest man

how singular an affair he thinks he

would solve a difficult problem, he

Method Of Bleaching Ivory,

To bleach ivory orsaments or pi-
aIo keys the following method works
well. The ornaments are first wash
ed or soaked if possible, in a bath
of unslaked lime, which has in 1t a
few ounces Of bran and water. This
should make a pasty solution If prop
erly mixed, and will bleach the ivory
which Is discolored or stained. 1t
should be rubbed off with a cloth and
the ivory dried in magnesia powder.
After a few minutes a few strokes
with a cloth gives the ivory a brilliant
polish.

THE RIGHT TO REST.
New Standard In Court Decisions on
Labor Legislation.


The supreme court of Mssissippi has
established a new standard for other
states to follow. 1t has handed down
a decision which marks new epoch
in the progress of labor legislation.
This decision, which has passed al
most without comment sustains the
validity of the Mississippi ten hour
law enacted in March. 1912 Other
courts have sustained other ten hour
laws, but the new and startling fea-
ture of the Mississippi decision is that
for the first time in the history of the
United States it upholds, as a reason
able health measure, a general law
regulating the hours of labor in manu-
featuring industries, applying to men
and women alike.
Hitherto no general statute regulat-
ing the hours of work for men in pri-
vate employment has been sustained.
Only in occupations manifestly dan
gerous to health have the courts held
that a mans hours Of labor may be
limited by law or in an occupation like
the railroad service. where public safe
ty is at stake.
The urgent question now arises
whether the ultimate authority, the
supreme court of the United States,
will sanction the advanced stand of
the Mississippi supreme court and thus
open the way for legislation in other
states.
Two more years will probably inter-
vene before the validity of the Missis-
sippi law will come before the SUI
preme court of the United States, and
the question of limiting mems hours of
labor by law will again. after a lapse
of ten years, be presented to the high
est tribunal of the land.-Josephine
Goldmark in Survey.

STATUS OF GOMPERS CASE.
Unusual Court Proceedings of the Dis
trict of Columbia.


trict of Columbia.
j. j. Darlington, representing the SUI
preme court of the District of Colum-
bia, recently appeared in the United
States supreme court to make a motion
for a certiOrari to review the judgment
of the court of appeals in the case of
Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and
Frank Morrison. At the same time the
labor leaders formally submitted their
side of the case to the supreme court,
it being the second time this contempt
action has been before the highest tri-
bunal
Attorney Darlington based his motion
on the ground that the court of appeals
had no power to diminish the sentences
imposed on the labor leaders. His ap-
pearance on behalf of the supreme
court of the District of Columbia was
unheralded and aroused considerable
comment among the members of the
bar as a most unusual proceeding.
The court of appeals of the District
Of Columbia had previously reduced
the sentences of the labor leaders to
one months Imprisonment for Com
pers and fines for Mitchell and Morri-
son. The court then denied a motion
for rehearing Of the contempt case
and also declined to grant writ of
error by which Gompers and his asso-
ciates sought to have the appellate
court agree that the case he reviewed
by the Unit"'l States supreme court.
