A LIVING WAGE. - Arbftrators
should not consider a wage that
means merely a bare existence. Men
are not horses. They need more than
enough to provide a place to sleep,
clothing to cover their nakedness
and food enough to kee pthem strong
enough to work. Men need to marry
and raise children. And the best way
to determine a fair wage is to con-
slider what wage is necessary to make
the best citizens. Everybody in Chi
cagO is interested in healthy, clear
eyer, clear-brained, alert, intelligent
mOtOrmen and conductors men who
have plenty to eat, plenty of sleep in
a good home, comfortable clothing,
music, pictures, magazines and news
papers and good books in the home,
and enough besides to make them
and their families happy.
If this county is ever plunged into
war the Workingmen or their sons
will have to do the fighting. The fu-
ture of this country depends upon the
kind of men and women we raise.
Germany has paid some attention to

misery? Because we have to cut and |
trim pretty closely is the air any |

embarrassed, 81 Think am sure
things are going to mend"
The artless old man did not notice
her confusion. Her cheering words
alone impressed him and his soul was
comforted.
Nellie had a fond cherished secret,
but she did not reveal it to her adopt
ed father. Had he been less self-cen-
tered he might have tried to find a
cause for her more than happy face,
her frequent lonely walks away from
the old homestead evenings.
It was about two weeks later that
Abner came into the house in great
state of excitement.

who will pay me a fortune for the dis

Alas! for two months old Abner
thought only of the culture Of his odd
squashes. He shipped them to the
state fair and followed them in per-
son.
Nellie met him at the train when
he returned, a week later. Abner was
slightly glum, for his freaks had ex-
cited only passing notice and then
were forgotten.
Reckon I'm an unlucky specula-,

Home, father" cried Nellie, as
they reached the old homestead.
Jump down, dear"
But Abner only stared. The old
place had new look. The house
had been painted, the fence mended,
a new wing had been built onto the
house. = o.
