SETTLE STRIKE
 BY AGREEMENT
New York Carpenters and Joiners Will Submit Grievances
 to Arbitration.
WAGES SUBJECT OF DISPUTE
Employers, 1t Is Believed, Are Willing to Make Concessions on That Point -Other Labor News of
 General Interest.

The carpenters strike in New York was settled by an agreement between the Brotherhood of Carpenters and JOiners and the Building Trades Elm plOyers' association. All grievances are to be submitted to arbitration, with Justice P. H. DugrO, of the Supreme court of New York, sitting as umpire. The employers c0ncede the right of the carpenters to higher wages, and the union agrees that all carpenters and allied tradesmen shall return to work pending Justice DugrO's award.
 The wage question is substantially the only one in dispute. The men de- maud $6.5O for the eight-hour day, while the employers at a meeting in November last fixed the scale for 1919 at $5.5O the old rate. The employers are, it is understood, now prepared to concede $6 day.

isn't it better to he kind to a dumb animal who does his part than to be d little bit more stylish? 1 would like to ask them how they would like to have their heads held way back. Yes, I would like to ask them that.
 And I would like to ask masters never to put frosty bit in a horses mouth without first warming it and seeing that it was comfortable. How would they like to have it put in their mouths when it was half frozen?
 II would like to beg masters not to sell the horses which have worked so hard for theM for years and years to any old person at all. but as a reward for their good work to send them to q farm or to have their lives ended hu namely.
 ''When our best working days are it isn't fair to turn us out with any sort of master and to lead any sort of a life which would be a slow, hor- rible death for us.
 "I would ask masters never to kick a horse, never to overload one, never to cut off the mane or tail of a horse so he couldn't get at flies or mOsQui- toes.
 q would like to say that masters wouldn't like it if mosquito landed on one of them, not to be able to drive it away.
 'I would like to ask masters to exam inc the teeth of their horses. They know what tOOthache is like. and horses teeth should be kept in good condition as we'll as a human beings.
 "Oh. would like to ask masters to be kind and good as we are kind and gentle and good. I would like to ask grOwnupS and children to do what they could to see that there were humane societies where they lived and to see that horses were well looked after and cared for and that there were no cruel ties.
 If anyone should be cruel to horse. he should be punished.
 'Just because I have such a lovely home I wish all horses had. l wish so many things but most of all 1 wish for the power of speech"
 ''I wish you had it.' said the other horse, ''but let us hope that scene day everyone will see that your wishes are but fair and right, and that in the meantime everyone does all he or she can do to see that dumb beasts are rightly treated"

Don't marry in the hope that you may ride in a golden automobile, or that you may have ice cream for des- sert every day. Those are not the things that count. Don't marry for the sake of living in a hubby-to-be's fine five-stOry house, or for the sake of becoming part owner in his pros porous business. Watch out for the string.
 Hubby-to-be may offer you his fine house as a home before you are mar ned, but afterward he may expect you to run it for him as a boarding house. Hubby-tO-be may offer you be fore you are married a partnership in his fine, prosperous business, but af- terward he may expect you to sink your precious savings into 1t and lose them all.
 Watch out for the string when you marry a man for the material good you may expect 10 get out of the match. If you have your eyes open beforehand you may learn that mar riage founded on dollars and cents Is delusiOn and a snare. The woman who marrles for the sake of having the world with a fence around 1t gen. erally loses in the end.

Coats for Young Girls
Shepherds Plaid and Wool Fab
 ricS Are to Be FaVoriteS.
ShadeS-NaVy and Tan Are Also
 Popular.

The most important item in the spring outfit of every young girl is the separate coat. For several years washable dresses have been preferred for girls under six, regardless of sea- son. Therefore few radical changes are noted in dresses developed for these junior citizens. Of course, every season brings its novelties, changes in fabric, color and color cOmbina- tion, but actual style changes are so few that a cotton wash frOck made for summer wear may appear with equally good effect during winter, or vice versa.
 Spring naturally makes the heavy winter coat an impossible garment Therefore the new spring coat is an all-impOrtant Item of the little girls wardrobe.
 During the coming spring taffeta and shepherds plaid wool fabrics will unquestiOnably be the favorite ma- terials for the development of little girls coats. Taffetas appear in wide range of colors and shades. Navy, of course, is good, tan shades are ex- tremely popular and the light blues such as French and soldier blue, also are favOriteS.
 These little coats are usually made with 8 normal waistline or with waistline a trifie higher than normal. There is always a waistline. The straight coats make their appearance for older girls and for women.
 Shepherds plaid wool fabric makes an extremely chic little coat and one that is always servtceable.
 The sketch gives a suggestion for a smart coat for girl of six or eight years. The belt may be of patent leather in either red or black, the but tons, of course, being selected to match the shade of the belt. The coat is finished at the neck with a collar of plaid over which Is laid a de- tachable collar of white satin, georg.

FEW UNEMPLOYED IN CANADA
Labor Department Reports Situation There as but s!!ghtIy Below
 the Normal.

According to reports from the Cana dian Department of Labor, the labor situation, so far as skilled wOrkmen are concerned, is but slightly worse than normal, and not nearly so bad as at the end of 1915. Recently 1,485 la bOr unions, representing a membership of 178,671 skilled workers, made re- ports to the labor department, which showed that of this number of workers 4,93O were reported as unemployed on December 31 last, this being a per centage of PAP as compared with the previous year of 2.17 per cent.
 Unemployment had reached it's high est point in 1915. when 8.7 per cent of the skilled labor in Canada was idle. By cities Toronto was the highest with 4.61 of unemployed skilled labor, Winnipeg and St. John, New BrunS- wick, being at the foot of the list, the former with .8S, and the latter with .64 per cent of it's population.

Times and Names Change.

While speaking of dogs, it might he mentioned that their names as well as the human types they shall appear with are being dictated by convention kaiser" and Bismarck" once popu- lar names for big dogs, with Lena" and Gretchen" for those of the so- called gentler six, have been discarded Even King" Duke" and Prince are in disfavOr. Instead, the dog fan ciers are taking the names off Pullman sleepers and annexing them on the poor bOw-wow. Such names as Fay cite, GwendoIin, Edith, etc, will be the vogue.

THE HORSES WISHES.

"Oh, neigh, neigh" said the horse named Johnny to the horse in the next stall, 'I wish 1 could talk"
 ''Why do you wish you could talk?' asked the other horse. You have a good, kind master, as have. Why do you wish you could speak?"
 'Ah," said Johnny, ''SO I could talk to other masters who do not treat their horses as we are treated"
 Il would say to them, Men, don't you know we have feelings? Don't you know that in the summer We want water, plenty of it? Do you ever stop to think how much you drink, and how thirsty you become? And don't you know that men and women have to work for these things in the city Peo- pie must give to help such causes Horses work for them, won't they in turn do their part for horses? You should have water buckets, drinking fountains and people to look after them in the cities. And every master should treat his horse as we are treated That is what I would say"
 Il wish you could say it," neighed the other horse.
 "Oh,' said Johnny, 'I would give anything if I could say too that every horse needed nice stall with comfy bed, a nice warm blanket for the cold, cold weather. when everyone knows what a hard job it is to keep warm. Every horse needs blanket when he is standing in the cold after he has been working.
 "A horse works better, he can do more for his master if his master gives him good meals, enough nice food to eat, enough water to drink, a good rest ing place at night, work, but not too much work.
 ''We need a holiday in the summer when we don't work at all, a good rest such as our masters have.
 And if they think so much of money I wish could tell them that we would save them money if they took good care of us.

TRIMMINGS ARE EASILY MADE
Decorations for Lingerie or ChiIdren's Garments May Be Applied With
 Aid of Machine.

A neat, inexpensive, easily made trimming for lingerie or children's garments may be made by threading the bobbin of a sewing machine with rope silk or any very heavy thread in dainty, bOil-proof color and using ordinary sewing cotton in the needle Stitch near the edges of the bands, yokes, etc., having the right side of the garment toward the cloth-plate. The effect Is very pleasing.
 Another attractive decoration + made by drawing a thread of mate rial and weaving into the space thus made a colored thread somewhat heav- fer than the one drawn. When the end of the space is reached, a French knot or satin stitch dot may be used as a finish. Threads may be drawn to form a geometric pattern or may be spaced evenly and placed in parallel rows. The result is at once unusual and charming.

GOWNS TO MATCH HANGINGs
Recent Fad Is to Have Apparel liar nonixe With Draperies and Ap-
 pointments of the Boudoir.

One of the latest fads of fashion is the elaborate room gown designed to harmonize with the hangihgs and ap- polntments of the bOudoir itself and for these rose pink brocade, French blue, and metal brOcades are the first requiSition.
 A shimmery gold and blue brocade, light in effect, has been used for one of these. It is cut on kimOnO lines, but softly draped at either side of the front Dull gold braid, oddly tasseled in gilt and black beads, makes an edge finish, and a single large motif of the braid marks the fastening at one side. The garment is lined in chiffon of the shade of light Parma violets, and the whole suggests a setting done in dainty French bOudOir style.
 In the same spirit is designed a brighter model of flame color, with lace bodice and overjacket of flame, trimmed with changeable ribbon in a soft shade of light blue shot with flame.

On New Handkerchiefs.

Black dots on blue form the decora- tive scheme of cne of the daintiest of the new handkerchiefs. The dots form an irregular border, widening at the corners, where they are interspersed with few bits of embroidery done in white cotton thread. Black handker- chiefs, that is handkerchiefs with black centers, are often seen. They have borders of color, usually printed in blocks, or checks or stripes. These handkerchiefs are bit startling, even tD the eye used to hand archiefs of all coIors of the rainbow-for, of course, klsrk isn't in the rainbow.

To take five minutes more than is necessary for doing thing is to lose five minutes that are needed for some thing else There is time enough for all necessary duties, but not q second to waste.
