ion in his court Yesterday finding

THREADED NEEDLES At HOME

Threading needles at home, skimp.
ing in lunches, denying themselves
all amusements and carrying work
home are some Of the ends that they
were compelled to resort to before
the strike Of clothing workers was
called in order that they might earn
as high as S, a week, girl strikers in
Chicago said. Sarah Mold, who for
merly was employed in one Of the
largest houses, said:
Il often threaded as high as ninety
needles at home so | would not lose
the time. l did work besides at
night, which I carried home, and
when | complained that | did not
feel able to do this | was told by the
foreman not to waste my time going
to picture shows. Since 1913 there
has been a general cut of from Is
per cent to 50 per cent in wages, and
where | formerly earned twelve or
fourteen dollars a week, I now can
make only six or seven dollars."-

COMPLETE HISTORY OF TREES
library" That Probably Cannot BIZ
EquaIed in Any Part Of
the Earth.

There is, perhaps. one Of the most
curious collections of books in the
world to be found in a small town on
the continent. 1t is really a botani-
cal collection. OutwardIy each vol
ume presents the appearance Of a
block Of wood, and that is what it
actually is: but an examination re-
veals the fact that it is also a COM
plete history Of the particular tree
which it represents.
At the back of the book the bark
has been removed from a space which
allows the scientific and the common
name Of the tree to be placed as a
title for the book. One side is formed
from the split wood Of the tree,
showing its grain and natural frac-
ture; the other side shows the wood
when worked smooth and vanished.
One end shows the grain as left by
the saw, and the other the finely pol
ished wood. On opening the book
it is found to contain the fruit, seeds,
leaves and other products Of the tree,
the moss which usually grows upon
its trunk and the insects which feed
upon the different parts Of the tree.
These are supplemented by full de-
scription of the tree. In fact. every
thing which has bearing upon that
particular tree secures a place in the
collection.
