Every child knows about the Sand

enough to possess this book Of his
will ever find out how the Daisy got her
Yellow Eye. and other splendid secrets
which every child who loves fairies
should know. The Sandman explains
exactly why the Grumpies hdnapsd

was who gave the magic gloves to
Nora, and how he found out that pussy
willows are truly gray kittens for
fairies to play with. and where-But 1t
wouldn't be fair to keep on hintine
about the Sandman's stories, further
than to mention, conndentialIy, that
they are just the very stories the Sand
man would be expected to tell.
The playground of this little book 10
located in the nursery wonderland
ed great opportunity. for Mrs Walker
proves that the very incest fairies love
to be with little children, and that the
Sandman is the best of them all. Criti-
cally considered, each bit Of fairy tale
is fitted to the understanding Of the

tily sketched illustrations and gay
cover, deserves a place on nterature's
shelf along with Andersen and Grimm.

that they are in the dyestufr business

facturer took up this line originally
with the intention of handling 1t on q
war basis only. He was prepared to
quit at tho drst sign Of peace. But he
has changed his mind. He has had
enough experience to know that he can
make dyes that are good and cheap.
He needed a little protection. and Con-
gress has accorded him that. Now he
wishes 10 know something moro def
mite about the consumption of Dyes in
this country. He knows something
about the dyes in greatest demand. but
not much about the others. The new
census furnishes the information he
needs. and the fact that he thinks he

The success Of the .fety-1rst move
ment has resulted largely from the
the health service says. this education
must be carried on to include preven-
ton of disease. even though it lead to
the homes and families of the workers.
10 dSSI0C IaTSlSHteu employers many
of whom have this work well under
way, and to preserve to the workman
his stock in trade, his health, the serv-
ice has made public some things which
1t has learned, and along with them 1t
offers suggestions.
The first recommendation Is that
where the size of the plant warrants a
physician should be employed to de-
vote his time to preserving the health
Of the men. Men cannot rightfully be
compelled and ought not to be allowed
to work beside diseased or mentally
deranged companions: and therefore
the doctor should pass upon the fitness
Of the applicant for work; and the un-
At should be refused or isolated.

results. and In many cases no atten-
ton whatever was paid to the request
for information.
The publication Of this census OF col
ors emphasizes the vagueness Of the
knowledge as to the extent to which
Synthetics dyes are consumed in the
United States. Those supposed to be
best informed in commercial manufac-
turing circles have estimated hereto
fore that the annual consumption Of
coal tar colors was within 10000 tons
The figures of DR.. Norton's report go
to prove that they underestima,ed the
amount by nearly one-third. since sta
tistics prove that $4,000 short tons have
been used.
In pointing out the necessity for q
census OF dyes. DR.. Norton says:
There are nearly 1000 coal-tar dye
stufYs Of recognized standing in the
tinctorial world. l. e.. their chemical
composition. or at least the method Of
twice as many are regularly manufac-
tured and enter into international
trade. Regarding the preparation or

otherwise will get him.
The most dangerous and prevalent
trouble to the workman is tuberculosis,
which cannot be cured unless taken in
the earlier stages. 1t has been found
that out of 140 classified occupations
the leading cause of death in 10 Of
them is tuberculosis.
Many of the larger plants have set
aside for the use of the doctors and
men separate rooms, some allotted to
an emergency hospital, with trained
nurses always in attendance; others in
quiet places. specially equipped as ex-
animation rooms.
In such big plants workers are not
taken on or assigned until they have
been examined by the doctor for their
physical and mental condition. just as
the employment agent looks into their
records for skill and experience. and

ing new here except the last point and
that is no longer new. for the European
war has certainly been good to the
novelist. The character of Winn
Staines, the hero, the background of
the turbulent Staines family and the

try house to the Swiss Alps are the
materials with which this writer Gre
ates an original Independent and

Moreover. despite the shady implica-

is, in fact, a beautifully chivalrous ad-
