FROM LUcnE's DIARY

At about this season every year I begin to feel hungry for country air and usually run to Uncle Johns for a few days of real farm life, but after my experience there last week think it hardly likely that I shall go very soon again
 Uncle John and Aunt Anna show an unprogressiveness that has always pained me, and for this reason every time I pay them visit try to give them some ideas that will soon add to the attractfveness of the dear old place I found when I arrived that Uncle John was building large ga rage, which pleased me. because 1t seemed so shiftless to keep his nice car in the ancient buggy shed. as he has been doing, and 1t was always so inconvenient to have no place for the car of any friend or mine who might happen to drive me out to the farm
 What a fine improvement" ex- claimed the minute saw it. What color are you going to have the shingles, Uncle John 7''
 The natural cedar" he answered.
 Dear me. that will never do. You must stain them"
 'sWhy?" he asked in his brusque
 aBecause they will wear a great deal better and look much prettier."
 When did you become roofing ex-
 aYou may laugh at me. Uncle John. but I really know what I'm talking about. Shingles nowadays are kiln dried, and that makes them so ex- tremely brittle that they can scarcely be nailed without breaking. and they'll split when merely lying on the roof in the sun if they are put on without staining. While the cost makes the initial expense greater, it is a splen- increases the durability of the shing les.'
 You talk like an advertising cir cular," said my uncle laughing, "but perhaps there is good sense in what you say"
 Nan and persuaded him to let his man drive us over to the village and we selected a handsome dark green stain sold in bulk. We took a few gallons home with us in the car. so we could begin work at once. We started in to do the dipping just as ! had seen it done for some of Dayid's buildings, which I had inspected with him. Uncle John was plainly impress ed with my facility and I was glad to be such a help to him.
 quite gayly. Then I felt that we ought I to rest and when pulled off my gloves was mortified to discover that they had leaked and my cherished 1 finger nails were green. washed my hands, but even a securing soap would not remove the marks, and I fmme- diately decided that I must stop the work. as I couldn't let my hands get any more deeply stained.

 If 1t makes her head ache 1t can't be very good for you" he shouted. You'd better stop. too: my girl"
 'But don't feel a bit bad, papa"
 Well, if it's too hard for Lucille it's too hard for you,s he insisted, rather grossly thought and he was in an unpleasant mood at supper.
 T guess we'll have to go out and rake up somebody to do those shing- les" he snapped as we left the table. T can't have a blotch of green on the roof. It's pity they were ever started.S

 was so hurt by his unfeeling re- marks that declined to go in the car, pleading that my headache was worse, and I was firm against Aunt Anna's urging. I insisted that no one of them should remain at home with me and I went back into the house and hastily packed my suit case to the station in the milk wagon and caught the evening train. I left a note saying that I felt had really stayed long enough, as I was needed at home, and I thanked the family for their hospitality.
 I hoped that this would make Uncle John a little ashamed of his inconsid- crate treatment. But don't believe ! it did, for had a letter from Nan to- | day saying that her father had to hir' I the high priced carpenters to do thu shingle dipping. after all, as every body else was busy at farm work Moreover, as she expressed it. he wai | lawfully mad about the whole thing especially the rug, which looked evel worse after it was gasolined-' How foolish of Aunt Anna not t' send it to a professional cleaner l Poor Aunt Anna and Uncle John neve seem to know how to manage.

ARBITRATION THE THING.

When it is realized that losses are being sustained which run well up into the millions as the result of the labor troubles which are now under way in Chicago there Is offered one of the strongest arguments for the adjustment of the difficulty through a rational consideration of the questions involved. Whatever the terms of set- clement it is going to take a very long time to make up for that which is now being wasted and 1t is a question whether it can ever be recovered There is an injury done to the city as well as to the individual through just such failure to reach fair un- derstanding.
 With an understanding of economic conditions and the lesson of the troll leymen of that same city before them there is furnished the best grounds for the submission of the dispute to arbitration The advisability of such a course has been repeatedly dem- onstrated and it is regrettabIe that labor and capital still stand so far apart that 1t is impossible to have this method adopted in every in- stance where an increase in wages or a change in working conditions are demanded.
 Strikes or loclsouts never contribute to the benefit of community or to the public They are methods of the past which should be discarded en- tirely in favor of an adjustment which is based upon the actual conditions. The merits of the contention should be thoroughly thrashed out without a disturbance of the economic vel fare of all concerned. Arbitration may not be perfect but it is the best thing yet devised for aiding industrial peace under such circumstances.

 MT. Editor: was somewhat amused by the action taken at the Board of Trade meeting in regard to the union label There Is one thing the union label does not do: that is, cut any great amount of ice with a lot of so- called union men. If the union label Is an assurance of better conditions. why does the union man prefer to have his hair cut or be shaved in a non-union barber shop run by a for etgner that works non-un1on hours and charges non-union prices In prefer ence to the union barber paying his help union wages and running his shop union time and charging union prices and using the union iabel7 Why does union man that is shouting for the clothes. shoes or anything else buy prtson-m goods in preferences to union label goods7 Why does the un- ion man when he wants a drink go to the non-union rum shop In preference to the union shop next door that dis plays the union card7 Why does the union people want the public outside of the union to support the union label and the union man only use 1t when it is to his advantage2 Why do union men send to mail order houses and buy non-union stun when union label goods are sold by the merchants right here in town that furnish the work to use the tools on7
 Why do the representative business men composing the Board of Trade &C., cept a resolution in favor of the union label while the union men claim the privilege to go where he can buy the cheapest, irrespective of union label or quahty2 Consistency Is certainly a great jewel and if 20-foot channel will remedy this condition. or if the union can give dispensatfon to some of their members to work nine hours for some men and only eight hours for others, and with the city gas depart ment running in competition to the union gas filters who are paying taxes | to support it all together may help to reduce the height of the Chinese wall so some of the poor mortals can look over and see the union label from the 1 inside
