American Flat. for Australian City.

The Sydney Herald says growing inclination Is shown to introduce into Sydney's domestic architecture the American methods of placing fittings in all the rooms of house. With a view of experimenting in this style of building homes for the people, a contract has been let to erect block of flats at Neutral Bay for F. A. Thom- as. These will be fitted out on the most up-to-date American style. In one or two other instances of building residences around Sydney similar methods are being employed.

 kicked of and lovely little foot was seen. As she lay there in fairylike sleep she made beautiful illustration for The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood"
 And the monster was not far away, either.
 At the edge of her white gown something moved Something ghostly dark and vicious. It crept further up the gown. very careful not to make itself felt It crept on and reached the bosom of the sleeping girl
 Black as the night, the ugly mon- ster with its long hairy legs moved on across the white gown and ap- preached her throat, which lay bare to the grasp of It's poisonous, blood sucking fangs.
 It was giant spider, an enormous ly big one, which had crept out of It's ceve. It was at least six inches in diameter. It could catch and swallow :; small bird just as easily as an ordi- nary fly. It was very near her throat now.
 Two inches-and again two inches --crept the disgusting monster. and reached her bare throat.
 As it rose on it's hind legs, It's dark body against the white gown, the black monster kept perfectly quiet, as 1t wanted to prepare It's poisonous fangs before sinking them into the fresh veins which had tempted it's greedy appetite.
 The man. who had just reached the middle of the small valley stopped suddenly as if turned to stone. The shout of joy with which he had meant to greet the girl whom he had looked for anxiously died in his throat How great the danger in which the little girl was lowering he knew only too well. He knew better than anybody that all wild animals, snakes and poi sonous insects included. bite or sting immediately when they are scared If, therefore, he let himself be seen now the monster would follow this in- stinct and sink its deadly poisonous fangs into the girls throat before it disappeared.
 His brain was always clear and the life he had lived had taught him to de- eide quickly. He il tantly remem- bered that when he had returned from the hunting and discovered that the up the rifie-and this rife was loaded with a rather small bullet.
 As he made every effort to be as calm as possible he lay down noise !essly and pressed the weapon against the stone. He was very clever with the rife, but he did not dare to take even the slightest risk.
 He took hair-fine aim and the shot went off. The faint noise of the shot did not wake up the girl. But the dis gusting monster had disappeared blown into thousands of pieces in the empty air.
 First, when 1t was all over, his hand trembled. He threw away his rife, jumped up and ran toward the little girl lifted her in his arms and pressed her tightly to his breast. The girl woke up.
 "Papa-wet." said the little girl. and looked into his face-which was wet with cold perspiration-with sleepy eyes-"Ray dry. papa"
 Yes" answered the father, "I have been playing William Tell. and 1t was bit tiring."

Too MANY Investigations.

/ am opposed to further investga-
ton by the house. The honor and
integrity OF the membership OF the
house is far above reproach, and we
should take no notice of the unscrup-
ulous and designing class of men who
seek to defame the members OF this
body. The investigation OF the steel
corporation and the money trust
has been the cause OF distress in the
financial and business world. They
have deprecated the values of Sc
curities more than $1,000, 900, 900.
The inquisitions have proven conciu
sively that there was no just cause
for the claim that a money trust ex-
listed and that the United States Steel
Corporation purchased the Tennessee
Coal and Iron company for no other
purpose than staying the panic of
1907. Not only have the investiga-
tons proved disastrous to the public,
but they were the direct cause Of the
death Of the greatest banker and
philanthropist in the world. Repre-

Justice for Injured Workmen.

Various new State laws providing
employees accident compensation have
been on the statute books for only a
limited period. In some States these
laws were enacted without much con-
sideration and in the heat of politi-
cal discussion and agitation. These
laws in some instances were formu-
lated with little knowledge OF the
very great and intricate questions in
volved. and with very much less than
the sufficient elaboration to prepare
a wise law.
The benefits to the employees can
not be measured by the dollars Of
relief received in time Of distress and
suffering. BY far the greatest hene-
fits to the soldiers OF industry are, as
some people have said, from the ac-
cidents that have not happened" The
greatest benefits in the whole evolu-
ton come from the campaign for ac-
cident prevention being pressed by
every thoughtful employer. Both en-
ployer and employee are better off
many times over than In previous
years, not because 1t is cheaper in dol
lars for the employer than under the
old system lit astually is much more
expensive), but because the employer
and employee stand together on the
same side Of the question. The en-
ployer, having paid his insurance
rates. sees to 1t that the employe gets

Why Do Fat Women Try TO Look
Like Slyplls:

Grace Margaret Gould, fashion cdt-
tor OF the Woman's Home Companion,
writes wonderfully sensible and
practical and yet highly entertaining
article entitled Imitation Versus In
dividuality'' in the March issue of that
periodical. She makes the point that
individuality is really what counts In
dress and in charm. II is being your
self at your best. not striving to COPY
what is best in someone entirely diff
ferent. She writes in part:
EVERY blessed one OF us always
wants to look exactly as we never can
look, so we initiate some other woman.
and invariably she Is our direct oppo-
site
There is the fat woman. for in
stance, who is always yearning to ba
sylph She deceives herself into
believing that she will actually look
like q sylph II she only wears the same
sort of clothes that her sylph-like
neighbor wears. The trouble Is that.
no matter how hard she tries or what
agonies she endures. she is never able
to make anything out of herself but Z
fat sylph And the irony of this is
cruel to dwell upon.
Then there Is the lean woman,
whose arms resemble broom handles
and whose scrawny neck is never fit

measure it is the dress that makes her
plump friend across the way look 50
attractive and seem so CHEEKY. 40 sha
