Set 1t over at one end four feet where you say encrOach on you two feet, and at the other end, where you say encrOach one foot, set it over two feet"
 But that is twice as much as I claim" exclaimed the astonished neiEhbor.

TROLLEY MEN WILL
 ASK FOR RAISE.
Additional Labor Through New Sys- tems Among the Reasons For Pro- posed Request.


 With the exception of a statement tors and motormen would undoubted- ly be aslScl for before the expiration of the present agreement, no informa- tion was given out for publica- ton at the close of the session of the conference committee of the troll leymen's union held in New London on Tuesday at which representatives were present from points on the Shore Line system including Westerly, Nor wich. New London, East Lyme and Saybrook. The conference was held in Trainmen's hall and was presided over by Chairman Axel Swarin of New Lon don.
 Mir. Swarin stated that wages, work ing conditions and other matters of interest to trOlleymen were discussed but that at the present time nothing could be given out. He admitted in response to a question that there would be a demand formulated later for an increase in wages. to be sub mitted to the Shore Line Co. in ample season prior to the expiration of the present wage agreement.
 The schedule now in force grants a maximum wage of 29 cents an hour on the Shore Line and 2S 1-2 cents on the Connecticut Co. lines. The higher cost of living and additional labor Imposed by the introduction of new systems on the trolley lines are under- stood to be among the reasons which the union men will advance in their demany for increased pay.

LIFE's GREAT MAGNET.
Rev. Joel B. sIoeum, D. D., Says It is Found in the Personality of Jesus Christ.

Life's great magnet is found in the personality of Jesus Christ. said Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., in his shop talk at the International Silver company Tuesday noon under the auspices of the Y. NJ. c. A. Mrs. George T. Lord rem dered several vocal solos.
 TEere was a report some time ago of an interesting experiment that was made at Willett's Point by Captain King Of the United States army. said Rev. pr. Slocum. He took an old cannon 16 feet long. wrapped it with 10 miles of copper wire and then connected it with an electric battery. The result was astonishing. The old gun that had been a mighty force for repulsion now became the source of great attraction. The iron and steel which 1t used to repel Is now enticed. In a word. the old disused gun became the most wonderful magnet in the world. People went to see it and be- came greatly interested in it's marvel ous power. When the power was turned on it would raise as much as 22 tons. Cannonballs which no man could lift would rise from the ground to the muzzle of the magnet One of the most interesting experiments was to place a soldier about a foot from the muzEle of the gun and then turn on the current. Great iron spikes "Ouko lAAS 6AOAAAu anu tach themselves to the soldier. who bristled with them like a porcupine- Even great cannonballs would leap up and hang upon him. But when he moved away from the magnet the iron would fall to the ground, because the power was not in himself but in the magnet.
 Life's great magnet is found in the personality of Jesus Christ, who lived on this earth. and who, when he was about to leave the world, said: And if I be lifted up will draw all men unto myself" The work which He did still draws the world towards Him The qualities of His character are the greatest forces today in human society," And He wants us to become magnets that will draw men towards Himself
 A story will illustrate one way by which we can apply this la wof att traction. A lawyer bought a farm where there had been a lawsuit go- ing on for many years with neighbor about a boundary line. The lawyer went to see the obstinate neighbor at
