Mothers Dress Allowance.
BY Winifred Black.

bS hlnllTeu biAck,
Did you ever wear vol that you
paid so cents for and feel quite comfy
in it, thank you? No more-no more
--sl.50, e, So and not cent left
for carfare.
And the dear men wondering why
you can't manage as we'll as his moth
er did with the same dress allowance.
Where does it come from the money
who earns it?
Do the women? | don't believe it.
Do the men? Do they like to work
SO hard just to buy fine feathers for
their fine birds - the men ?
What are they wearing over there
in Europe now, wonder-where all
the fashions used to come from?
Are they quite so silly about clothes
as they used to be?
Do they spend the last dollar that
husband or father can manage to scrape
together just for few tufts and fall
dals, or have they awakened at last
from their dreams of folly ?
Black is the fashion there, they say
unless you wear the white of hos
pital nurse-and nobody worries about
smart" shoes and 'the latest" hat
any more.
Sometimes / wonder if we had to
have the war just to make us realize
that there is something on earth be-
sides dress and vanity and jingle of
money.
hope we learn the lesson over here
without going to war to DO it.

Tips to Merchants

A clean sidewalk is sure to impress
the passerby and draw his attention to
the windows.
Trained clerks sell more goods, salts
fly more customers, make fewer mis-
takes, and help increase trade and
profits.
Keep your store we'll lighted. A well
lighted store is always attractive, and
goods can be displayed to better ad
vantage Unusual things advertise
your business. You can do unusual
things without doing ridiculous things
Your success depends largely on
what others think of you and your bust
ness methods. Look at yourself and
your business as the public does.
Teach your clerks to be careful in all
things. Not to give overweight or un-
derweight Not to handle stock care
lessly. Show them how to properly
wrap parcels and handle stock without
waste.
WI iNpHObSibihtN NpCo nv SNd<C
after the goods have been sold. They
must de delivered. If you use wagons,
remember that people do not like to
see dirty delivery wagons drawn by
poor horses, driven dy careless drivers.
If messengers deliver goods, it is
well to have them wear neat, clean
uniforms. The better they look, the
more they call attention to your bust
ness. Elk.

Will Change Their Tactics.
It's not the slightest use trying to
fog the question by lot of by-issues.
The whole situation will have to be
faced and faced honestly and coolly. The
days of isolated strikes are about over,
and it is to be hoped that very few will
ever again take place. They are econ
omically wrong, and the class that causes
one in the future by neglecting or refus-
ing to recognize the principle of collect
i've bargaining and the settlement of diff
ferences by conference is going TO meet
with defeat in unmeasured terms.
And the petty piffle of objecting to
this or that organization because of some
personal opinion won't do any longer
it won't pay-especially from the opera
tors standpoint. There are quite num-
Der of Colorado coal operators who will
find themselves in q pretty bad posi-
tion, as it can be readily demonstrated
that their past has been so rottenly
crooked that they could have no standing
in any decent court.
Every Dog Has Its Day.
By the way, during the sitting of the
industrial relations committee quite a
nice batch of private correspondence"
turned up, which threw great deal of
light on the relations of certain gentle
men. 1t was not by any means the only
batch of interesting correspondence that
found its way into hands never intended,
and in the light of recent conspiracy
talk it becomes doubly interesting at
this time and it will form the piece de
resistance" at the federal grand jury
banquet soon to take place in Denver.
The president. of the United States is
not mixed up in it, but more than one
president of coal companies figures in
it. and anything but the role of an
apostle of law and order. Every dog
has its day and the miners day is going
to happen soon.
