noted that under his splendid coat his
backbone was prominent and his sides
woefully Sunken.

said, and carried him in.
She had not yet had supper. Mrs
Stoddard gave her help no more than

Abundance lit a fire and set on her

LABOR FEDERATION FAILS
TO ADJUST TROUBLES
Jurisdictional Strife of Unions Un-
settled-Child Labor Is
Condemned.

PHILADELPHIA. November 1s.-The
effort to adjust the jurisdictional diff
ferences between the United Brother
hood Of Carpenters and the Amalga-
mated Sheet Metal Workers In;erna-
tfonal Alliance has failed so far as the
present session of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor is concerned
The committee on education made its
report approving various subjects con-
tanned in the annual report of the ex-
ecutive council of the federation
Among these subjects was a declara-
tion on child labor. The convention in
dorsed the following on the attitude Of
organized labor:
I'VE declare that any who profit by
the toll of children at all, or by the
labor of other minors required to toll
more than eight hours a day, are unfair
and unworthy of the patronage of true
patriots and those who desire human
welfare"
Other resolutions were adopted favor
ing government loans of money for
municipal and private ownership OF
sanitary houses such as Is done by
European governments. and lending
support to the national federation Of
post office clerks in their efforts to
have mail equipment properly disin-
fected and cleansed and to improve the
sanitary condition "of the overcrowded
post office workrooms."
A resolution introduced by delegate
from the Seaman's Union, which sought
to have women taken out of industry
and returned to the home, and urging
that the land be restored to the people
and made available without paying of
tribute to landowners" provoked a
long discussion. The committee which
reported the resolution amended 1t so
as to declare that the condition of
women in industry should be improved
and that land be made available to the
people without paying unjust tribute"
to landowners. and it was adopted in
this form.

THE EVENING STORY.
BLACK FOR LUCK,


Abundance Brent was returning home
had been helping Mrs. Stoddard with
her fall housecleaning. Mrs. Stoddard
was the kind Of woman who never
spares herself. much less her hand
maiden. and Abundance was so tired
that her feet dragged, one after the
other, in aching protest at having to
move at all.
Abundance was a little woman, with
brown hair. and old, sad, weary eyes,
She was about thirty-six, but she look
ed much younger, for she had the light
conscience and the innocent heart of
a little girl. However, a light con-
science and an innocent heart cannot
make one happy when fate and the
world combine to make one wretched
Abundance had given up her gfrIhood
and her young womanhood to caring
Tor her helpless father. whose long and
increasing illness had cost him all that
he possessed save this little gray
house on back street. Even that was
mortgaged, but because 1t was the
only home she had ever known. Album
dance was trying to meet the demands
of the mortgage and save it from fore
closure. She had never been trained
in any except housework, and SO she
was going about wherever she could
get a days hire. From spring until
fall she was busy, but winter was a
time she dreaded. because then she was
idle and alone. Winter was coming on
now. She knew that this fragrant. red
day was only respite and that the
cold and snow and bleakness lay wait
ing to rush in upon the poor and the
unprepared. AS she walked home
through the purplish bloom of twilight
1t seemed to her that there was not one
thing in the world worth living for.
Her eyes were downcast and SO she
was close to her own doorstep before
she noticed that company waited for
her thereon. A great black cat with
a white bib and nose pink as a rose
leaf sat quietly .purring a welcome
Abundance stopped in establishment.
She had no cat. Her neighbors had no
cats. Whose, then, was this beautiful,
glossy coated creature? And what was
he doing there?
'Why. where did you come FROM"
she exclaimed.
The cat stood up on his hind feet
and mewed. She put her hand down
and he rubbed against it lovingly.
What darling you are" murmured
Abundance, her starved heart grate-
fully responding to this show of anfec-
tion.
She took him in her arms. He snug
gled against her. bunting her cheek

The Roadside Tree Law.
A New Law And It's Value TO
The State.

With the advent of Summer and
the season when 50 much attention Is
given to outdoor life, news regarding
A well framed roadside tree law pass
ed at the last session of the state Leg
islature is received with interest by
Maryland citizens.
The contrast between a road lined
ON either side with a row OF handsome
trees, and one unprotected from cold
winds, and the glare and heat OF Il
hot summers sun is at once appar-
rnt to anyone. There is Il contrast,
too, netwccn the street or country
highway with its wrll-carcd for, orn-
amcntal trees and the road whose
trees are covered with numerous signs
and advertisements which are not, to
say the least, ornamental in any way.
All of these things have received
attention in law which is sure to
contribute much to the appearance
of the States, Identifying the land
scapc, and making Maryland roads
and streets comfortable and more at
tractivc to the passcr-by. For tins
law gives the State Board Of Forestry
power not only to care for and m-
prove trees already planted along amy
highway, but provides for their pro-
per planting in desirable places.
1t is forbidden under this law, and
penalty provided, to trim, cut down,
or in amy way to mutllatc roadside
trees without the approval and per
mission of the State Forest officers
And further, the placing of amy add
vertising matter on fences, stones,
trees or buildings in or upon the pub
lie highways is now prohibited, and
fine provided for the enforcement
of this provision.
The direct benefits to be derived
from such law are only too appar-
cnt, and the State Board of Forestry
proposes in the immediate future to
show the people of this State how
they may themselves assist in carry
ing out this new law and aid in I'M
proving the appearance Of their own
particular district.
