HIGHER TENDENCY OF WAGES
SHOWN IN ALL PARTS
OF GERMANY

10y AHNOclute0 HFeSAsb
BERLIN, April 9.-The latest gov
eminent summary of conditions in
the labor market shows that further
improvement was registered in Janu-
airy. In total of 100000 workmen
organized in 35 branch associations
the number of persons without EN-
ployment was only 6.5 per cent. as
compared with ~ per cent in De-
cember The percentage of unem.
ployed for January varies but little
from previous years and is regarded
as quite satisfactory for the mid
winter month.
Similar reports were sent in by
the public employment bureaus Near
the end of last August these had
15O,622 more applicants for work
than they could satisfy, but on Feb
ruary IL the number was only 57,397.
On the other hand, there were on
the latter date 1888 applications of
employers for help that could not be
filled, as against only 4419 in Aug
ust
Some Of the details OF the govern
ment summary are interesting. II is
mentioned that iron foundries are
working overtime and at night on
government orders, and that steel
and rolling mills are also in part
working overtime. Some branches
of the machinery trade, like locomo-
tive steam engine and boiler shops.
also establishments for building
bridges and other iron construction
and railway cars, were all very busy.
Electrical manufacturers were also
working hard on dynamos. motors,
and other supplies for the army: and
the big chemical companies were run
ming some of their departments to
their full capacity. A higher tend
ency for wages was reported

(By Associated Press.I
COLOGNE, April 9.-The thin man
is euogized by the Koelnische lei
lung not only as food saver as com

more active and useful member OF

The thin man" says the paper
has need of much less food to sus
tain life than the stout man. Every
step we take, every movement, makes
demand on .nourishment equal in
proportion to the quantity of fat used
up in the movement
Whoever. therefore, has dimin.
ished his weight by ten per cent, for
example, diminishes at the same
time the quantity Of food that he
needs by ten per cent.
Very thin men enjoy physical
yigor and energy that is really ex.
traordinary Hence in these days,
when we are constrained to econo-
mze in our meals, it becomes at the
same time sacred duty toward the
Fatherland and an individual duty to
reduce ones food consumption and

That plants die like animals we all
know, but we do not know the exact
moment when they die. For hours a
dead plant seems alive. There Is no
twitch, no death spasm- A scientist
has, however. succeeded not only In
noting the precise moment when a
plant gives up its life, but In recording
its death spasm- The plant is heated
very gradually 50 as to avoid all excl
tntion. This Is done by placing the
plant in a water bath the temperature
Of which is continuously raised by the
application OF gas or spirit fame. At
90 degrees c. a spasmodic extraction
takes place. All attempts to obtain
response after this fail, even though
the plant is cooled down to its normal
temperature. This death temperature
Of 60 degrees Is constant for all plants

ssttino Fashion.

Some years ago the coral fishers Of
Tore del Greco, near Naples, were In
hard straits The value OF coral had
fallen 80 low that they were no longer
able to find purchasers for their har-
vest. At last In their despair they be-
sought the queen to come to their aid.
At the first great court BAN that was
held that year at the Quirinal the
queen, 70 the surprise Of all beholders,
wore about her neck a collar composed
OF six rows OF coral instead Of her su-
perb collar Of pearls, and her black hair
was crowned with a diadem OF coral
and brilliants. From that evening the
mode changed Old coral ornaments
that had been hidden away for years
and years were again displayed at the
jewelers. and were snapped up by
eager purchasers. Queen Helena's OBJ
ject was attained. and that court ball
marked the beginning OF more prosper
Gus days for the coral fishers OF Tore

LEGENDS of the Red Rose.

As to the origin OF the rose there Is
a legend that Jewish maid Of Beth
lehem (whom Southey names Zillahl
was beloved by one Ham'ull. british
sot Zillah rejected his suit, and
Ham'ull vowed vengeance. He gave
cut that Zillah was a demoniac. and
she was condemned to be burned, but
God averted the flames. the stake bud
ded, and the maid stood unframed un-
der a rose tree full Of red and white
roses, then first seen on earth since
paradise was lost"
From other sources II would appear
that the rose was first white, and the
Turks say 1t was colored with the blood
OF Mohammed and viii never suffer
the flower TO lie on the ground, while,
contrary 10 this, the Greeks hold that
IT derived its color from the blood of
Venus when she trod on a thorn of
the white thorn when going to the as
sistance Of the dying AdOnis.
