LAnOH AND PEACE.

one OF the big questions 10 he pre-
aented 10 the peace conference win
be the demands OF labor whether
or not the conference Will consider
these demands M one OF the vital
factors in securing peace between
warning nations, or whether It will
decide that It IN a matter for each
nation to settle according to It's
own particular condition. remains
yet TO be determined. ~ conditions
I'm each OF the countries involved In
tho war are quite different II seems
doubtful that tho peace conference
will undertake TO settle tho labor
problems.
The attitude OF the pOn-Amerlcan
labor convention at Laredo, Toxhs,
seems to bs that the war has been
fought. life has been sacrificed and
treasure has been expended for the
sole benefit OF labor, Mr.. dompers'
president OF the American federa-
ton OF labor, intlmates that the htti-
tude OF labor to the war was solely
for tho purpose OF securing an ad-
vantage, and the import OF his words
is n threat to take reprlsals II an
effort In made TO take away this
adVan tage. His language rather
tends TO destroy tho belief that Ia
Dor was fighting hand In hand with
tho whole people of the United
states and the allied countries To
establish world democracy. II
we are TO take what Mr., Gompers
says as true expression, the posi-
ton Of the worklngnen In this war
A. would seem. WIS for the sole nur-
pose OF establishing labor autocrscy.
The World holds Mr.. Gompers in
high esteem, and believes that or
ganized labor Is necessary and or
great benefit to the wOrkingmen,
but in the reconstruction period we
are now entering both labor and
capital must make some sacrifices
or else the United states is going to
he swept by u calamity as disastrous
as the devastation following an In
Vading army.
The war created an unusual and
abnormal condition. The extraordi-
nary demand caused labor 10 nc
paid the highest wage In history. In
peace time Il cannot be expected
that the same high scale OF wages
can be maintained. Our Industrial
plants will have to compete with
the manufacturers Of all nations. AS
a natural result the price OF their
products must he lowered. The Ia
boring man cannot demand that the
cost OF his living be reduced anc
the present high standard OF waE'
kept up.
Our factories cannot operate or
peace basis and pay tho same
wages that have prevailed undei
wartime contracts and demands
We want TO see labor receive It's ful

AS 10 RemarkabIe Lonnevltx.

We have all read of Thomas Parr,
who lived to be one hundred and fifty
two. Likewise of the countess of Des-
mond, one hundred and forty-five
Margaret Patten, enc hundred and
thirty-seven; Thomas Damme, one
hundred and sixty-four; John Rovin,
one hundred and seventy-two; and Pc
ter Torton, who reached the age of one
hundred and eighty-five. But these
cases of extraordinary longevity lack
proof.
In the days when those persons
lived no accurate chronological records
were kept, and dates of occurrences
were usually fixed ly associating them
in memory with other events believed
TO have happened about the same time
A mans identity was liable to be con-
fused with that of grandfather of
the same name.
Nowadays nobody lives to any such
ages. Why imagine that the extreme
limits of longevity have shrunk within
the last two or three centuries?

BECOMES IRKS0ME AT TIMES
No Matter What the Nature of Ones
Occupation, Its Routine viii oc-
casionaIly Weary.

Are there times when your work be-
comes intolerably irksome? Yes? Well.
don't jump at the conclusion that you
are in the wrong place when this hap
pens once in awhile. That will be true
whatever work you choose. No matter
how well adapted you are to your occu-
patton, there Will come times when
your thoughts Will wander, and the
routine will weary you, and you will
feel that any other work would be
preferable to that which you have
chosen. One of the best-known woman
writers of the last generation wrote
an impassioned warning TO literary as
pirants telling them TO do any work,
even Scrubbing floors, in preference to
taking up literary career. Undoubt-
edly she wrote ut q time when her
chosen work seemed unspeakably irll-
some, but if she had been cornered.
she would probably have acknowledged
that the profession Of authorship has
considerable to commend it when COM
pared with scrubbing floors.
This occasional impotence with our
vocation is inevitable. No matter how
congenial it is, there are times when it
will seem n burden. The people who
change their occupation every time ii
begins to bore them, are the tramps OF
the business world.

How to Tell ace Of Eaas.

There is simple method of ascer-
tanning the age of eggs, based upon the
fact that the airy space at the broad
end of the egg increases with its age.
Now, when the egg is placed in a
tumbler of water in which any amount
of common salt is dissolved, it will,
with increasing age, tend ever more to
assume position With its longitudinal
axis in a perpendicular direction. A
fresh laid egg will lie horizontally on
the bottom of the vessel. An egg from
three to four days old viii rise with its
broad end. so that its longitudinal axis
