PATRONIZE THE LABEL,

Trade unionists have been told
many, many times that their great
est weapon lies in the purchasing
power of their wages. If every men,
Der of organized labor would be as
insistent for union label goods as he
is for union wages, hours and CON
ditions the sweatshop, child labor,
prison labor and all the obstacles
ress would be swept aside and the
onward march of the worker would
be a swift, steady movement that
would stop only when the highest as
piratiOns of the toiler were realized.

IN THE WAY

How short, sometimes, is the dis
lance between jest and bitter fact
When DR.. Osler jokingly stated that
folks above the age of 40 should be
chloroformed, he meant no harm to
any one. For his jest he was derided
and condemned.
Yet there is back of the grim humor
of the doctor a fact which, though it
is not generally admitted is true
Modern society, capitalist society, is
constantly pushing it's worked-out,
starved-out, infirm workers over the
cliff into the scrap heap. Capitalist
society does not conserve it's humans,
it buys it like machinery, operates it
like machinery, wears it out like ma
chinery and throws it into the junk
pile.
A worker who has reached the age
of 40 is on the decline as far as his
labor power is concerned. He is dis
placed by younger workers, and, fore
ed to seek a market for his labor
power, finds that in other markets
the same conditions prevail. Instead
of being employed, he finds others of
the same age being flung on to the
human scrap heap. They are no long
er as productive as younger workers
and must make way-that is the edict
of capitalist production. Most of the
officials of the mighty industries have
laid down the dead line of age be
yond which the seeker for work has
no hope of getting a job.
I'VE want nimbleness; we want the
floodtide of speed and efficiency" is
the croak of Big Business, eager only
for the profits which it can grind out
of the labor. Let Labor take care
of its own people" says Capital 1--WE
are not in business for sentiment. but
for dollars"

WHERE MERCHANT SUFFERS

The margin of existence is just as
close with merchants in hard times
as it is with wage-earners. Every
business man understands that dur
ing a long period of poor business,
when sales have shrunk very mate
rally because of insufficient employ
ment for the wage-earners in his
community and upon whom he must
depend for the volume of his bust
ness, a very slight difference in per
centage of the reduced gross amount
of business done will represent to
him the difference between success
and failure.
For the latter reason a union label
purchase made in dull times not only
benefits the union workman making
the goods and helps to show the
non-union worker the necessity of
being enrolled in the ranks of organ
lied labor, but it helps to put the
merchant on the right side and to
compel him to be there to save his
commercial existence.
And now, we come around to the
employer who wants to sell the mer-
chant, and the merchant says: 81
can't buy your goods. The unions
here are very active in support of
union made goods and I have got to
have them in my stock or I will lose
their trade, and for me to lose their
trade is something that l cannot
stand Now, it doesn't take very
many expressions of this character
coming from the customers of a
manufacturer to compel him to think
seriously of running a union label
establishment.
Suppose he is one of those persis-
tent kind that says, q will never run
a union label factory; I will go out
Of business first" and suppose the
time comes when a sufficient num-
Der of his customers have turned his
goods down on account of their not

If Crime to Hire Scab, Then a Crime
to Buy His Product

Just because business conditions
are generally bad, employment I'M
certain and earnings below average,
is no reason why there should be the
slightest let-up in the effort of every
true-blue member of organized Ia
Dor to advance the interests of the
union labels of the respective crafts,
and to increase the influence of a
right use of the purchasing power of
the wages received by members of
organized labor, and which are high
err vastly higher, in every industry
than could possibly have been had
organized labor not existed
If it is a crime for a union man,
in good times when employment is
plentiful and earnings high, to spend
any portion of his money in buying
the products of non-union labor, it is
MANIFOLD more serious an offense
for member of organized labor to
spend a portion of his smaller earn
ings in hard times to support some
non-union worker, who, in his indif-
ference, to take a most charitable
view of it, to the labor cause, is do
ing all that he can to tear down the
trade union structure and to nullify
the efforts of the wage-earner whose
wrongfully-given support is furnish
ing the non-union man with work,
In dull times when a man buys a
pair of shoes without the union
stamp, he is giving that amount of
work away from union shoe workers
at time when it counts most heav-
lily. The difference few purchases
of this kind may make may repre-,
sent existence to the non-union work
ers and nOn-eXistence to the union
workers, Just so close is the margin
of existence in times when business
conditions are generally bad.
The same reasoning applies in al
trades and in the relation of each
trade to every other trade. If yor
are a friend to a man you will give
him your support when he needs il
most, and least of all you will choose
that particular time of his extremity
as the time you will give aid anC
cuccOr to his pupmieS

God Comforts the Suffering.

God wants to be more to US In
time of keen suffering than at any
other time of our lives. MAY her
days of suffering be her best days,
prayed one for the pain-racked dis
ease-stricken wife of dear friend. A
parents love is never SO tender as
when a little child clings to 1t through
tears of sorrow, in agony of body or
mind. So Gods love, unsearchable in
its richness at all times, means most
to US when we cling close to him I'M
seeing, in the midst OF suffering. The
closer we get to his love and the more
we realize our utter dependence upon
1t, the better our days will be. Let
US not rob ourselves of the blessings
he longs to send us in these our best
days of need.-Sunday School Times.

HAVE PROVED THEIR METTLE
Soldiers Of the Present Day Show
Bravery at Least Equal to That
Of Their Forbears.

All the rules have gone smash in
the war. There's an old one in the
British army that you ought to begin
to look to retreat when 10 per cent Of
the men are down. In ours it Is Is.
In all armies it is either 10 or Is. Brit
ish regiments have stuck when GO
per cent were out. German and
French regiments have continued
charging when only a handful were
still alive or unwounded. Men have
never fought so bravely as in this war.
The idea that humanity was getting
soft was the most ri iculous piffle that
ever emanated from "knocker" of
the good old human race.
In the old times you fought for a
few hours and the battle was over. If
you were uncertain of your courage,
you took a drink before you charged.
Now you fight day after day; you face
the enemy in apprehension that any
moment shell may bury you alive or
eviscerate you. Hand grenades are
tossed back and forth like bouquets.
It's a war of nerves, and in this age
of nerves the highly civilized and Or
ganized man is standing what would
utterly demoralize a savage.-Freder-
lex Palmer in Golfers Weekly.

POPULARITY OF

Base ball has grown to gigantic proper
tons within the last decade and the scion
tifc work of the teams has been the delight
If millions of spectators. There are SO
many things to admire in the game that it
is impossible to describe them. Outdoor
exercise is one Of Natures best aids in pro-
noting health and strength and keeping the
blood rich and pure; but, perhaps you are
one of the many who are denied that privi-
lege. You lead sedentary life which al
ways has tendency to make the liver lazy,
the bowels clogged and digestion poor
Oftentimes you are nervous, sleepless, have
no appetite and feel run down.
Under these conditions you will greatly
appreciate the assistance to be derived from
a trial of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. 1t
helps Nature by toning and strengthening
the Stomach, Liver and Bowels, and with
these organs in a normal condition your
system is well fortified against an attack of

What a Revival lo,

The word revival is often given
a meaning which primarily does not
belong to it. Many emphasize the
conversion of sinners as the essential
element in a revival work; but that is
the secondary meaning Of the word.
Essentially, revival means the
quickening Of Gods people. You
cannot revive a dead man. The UNI
regenerate sinner is spiritually dead.
He must be born again. Now. you
may revive a partially drowned body,
or a partially frozen body. The re-
generate souls life often weakens
and wanes, until the flame almost
flickers out. But If there be the least
spark of life left, 1t can be famed
into a flame; and like the apparently
dead cinder in the smithy's forge.
that spark will touch others and
kindle a fame that will enthuse a
church, a city, or even nation. A
revival of religion, then, must logi-
cally begin with the chruch. Such is
the divine order-Christian Herald.
