.Nided Small Concerns.

BY controlling the shoe machinery
leased to various shoe manufacturers
the company did not unduly make use
of its powers, the court held Instead
by leasing these machines, manufact-
urers of small means were able to pro-
cure machinery which they otherwise
would be without capital to buy.
In dissenting, Justice Day declared
the tying leases" tend to prevent
the free flow cf interstate commerce
and the natural course OF its activities
and at least tend to monopollZe an
important trade
In his opinion he added, 1.-The re.
gtrictive and prohibitive clauses OF
these leases are within the sherman
act as they are clearly in restraint Of

The rempermentaI Artist,

The Art World Magazine is willing
to admit that the public taste and
preferences In art is not to be desplsed,
and 1t thinks artists should consider
those preferences. It says:
@An artist only honors himself when
he never loses for one moment the
thought Of pleasing that great world
public. He should seek forever to
capuvate It, not merely by pleasing 1t,
but BY pleasing 1t 90 much that 1t will
be delighted to take of his hat to him,
thank the giver Of all good things for
having created him, and honor itself
BY mailing his name high up In the
temple Of fame. Thus he will win

means the immortal love Of the race.

MEN KNITTING FOR SOLDIERS
Show Remarkable Ability at Clicking
the Long Nsedles-ons m Ex-
pert at Tattln0.

The art Of knitting has long been
considered exclusively feminine &C.
complishment, but the theory that man
has not patience or inclination to
spend his leisure hours In clicking the
needles has been exploded In Califor-
MIA, where wonders never cease.
A dispatch from Red Bluff, Tehama
county, records that Gorham King,
manager Of a department store there,
has almost completed his first knitted
set, consisting Of a sweater, muffler
wristlets and pair Of socks, for some
soldier In France.
King spent his vacation at Moon
stone Beach, and there he learned to
knit In an effort to forestall a threat
ened nervous breakdown. His sister
and mother have vouched for his pro-
Hciency In the art, and say. besides,
that knitting has erred him Of much
Of his nervousness. 1t Is no unc0m-
mon sight, say the natives of Red
Bluff, to see him drop his work at the
store and sit down for a spell" Of
knitting.
W. b. Baird, assistant cashier Of a
bank at Woodland, CAL. Is another
convert. He is said to have won the
plaudits Of the fair ones In that city
since his wife disclosed the fact that
"Will is the best latter In Woodland"
With knitting now In vogue 1t develops
that the banker has also mastered
that art. Baird is widely known In

Of its hay-fever aggravations. There
was time, however. when grandmoth-

the shape Of family bitters, physics and
curealls.
Yarrow, q pest to the farmer and
Of doubtful beautyseyen to the wild
flower lover, was ut one time a most
useful herb from which a tea was
made that cured all sorts of ailments,
from toothache to typhoid fever.
From the boneset plant, so common
along our streams now, tea was also
made which was a prime favorite In
the curing Of that common malady,
'break-bone fever"-do not laugh
prpbably what we know today as
