How Do You Do It.

How many women know how to put
on their hats properly? There is a
right way and wrong way, and few
there are who can distinguish them.
To do it rightly, grasp the hat, not
by the brim but by the crown, as close
to the brim as possible. This part
called the headsiZe in millinery par
lance, is the first apd most important
part of the structure. and hence the
strongest. BY handling the hat from
the brim the delicate adjustment Of

BIZ DOROTHY DIX
Worries Highest Paid Woman writes


The wife thinks that marriage will
be one glad sweet song with a ro-
mantle lover, who is always telling her
how wonderful she is, and who brings
her violets, and feeds her on candy.
and spends his time trying to amuse
and please her.
The man finds out that even the
most lovey-dovey sweetheart is con-
verified by marriage into a prickly crea
ture, all feelings, and nerves and tenn
per. He also ascertains that matri-
mony is an expensive luxury that takes
all and a little more than a man can
earn.
The woman finds out that marriage
changes her husband from a hand
some matinee hero into an unappetising
stranger, who is often unshaven and
unshorn, and whose principal indoor
sport is knocking her. She also finds
that marriage has brought her sick
ness, suffering, and sacrifices of which
she has never dreamed.
So the man is disillusioned with the
woman and the woman is disgruntled
with the man, and they try to find
consultations for their disappointment
on shady pathways, and the result is
disaster for everybody concerned.
How much better If they would eat
what was set before them, and ask no
questions. If they would make the
best of each other, and the situation,
sweet tooth, Or thought that mar
rage would be all pie,
All of US make mistakes as we go
thru the world. We are blind and stu
pid, and we blunder into pitfalls. we
are foolish and credulous, and easily
hoodwinked. We are careless, ana IN
expert in our work
some of us have intelligence enough
to acknowledge our mistakes, and
profit by them, and to accept criti-
cism gratefully and learn from it.
Others never acknowledge their, err
rors. They always blame others Tor
their failures, and spend their time be-
wailing the victims they have been to
circumstance.
1t takes courage and wisdom, and
breadth of view, to eat crow and ask
no questions, but the men and women
who can do it shall one day sit in the
seats of the mighty.
y Hardest of all and truest test of
character is it to eat what is set be-
fore you and ask no questions when
fate spreads the banquet able. Then
lit is that some become ppmpous and
chesty, and swellheaded; that they for
get the friends of other days who gave
them hand outs when they lacked the
price of meal; it is then that they
become arrogant, and heasttul OF their
achievements, and when they tell
weary werld all about their limousines.
and palaces and French chefs, and
what sort of sauce they always have
on their nightingale tongues.
But others eat their feast of sue
cess, in silence and humble gratitude
for what they have been permitted to
do, with the same calm acceptance of
good fortune that they give to bad.
Happy those brave souls who at the
end of life can say, II have neither
whined nor boosted. I have eaten
what was set before me and have
asked no questions"

With the Village growing less ar
tisGie and more expensive every day,
the artists are scattering in all direc-
tons. A small colony settled in the
Old Chelsea section, but is now being
ousted by the same clever real estate
tactics. Others have fled the city alto
gether and have taken refuge in
Brooklyn and in outlying suburbs. A
large group has taken up its abode
in the, former aristocratic Brooklyn
Heights, but with no faith in the per-
manency of their security. The
Heights SO closely resemble Green
witch Village in every way that it is
unreasonable to suppose a Latin Quar-
ter established on their oId-fashiened
soil would long escape the attention
of commercial interests. The same is
probably true of the art colony near
Spuyten Duyvil. Bronxville and New
Rochelle shelter many distinguished
artists, but there has been no attempt
to establish an art quarter in either
suburb.

other Greenwich Village in some other

MINERS AND THE COURTS.

The injunction issued against the
check-off system by Judge Anderson
in the federal court seems likely TO
become for a time a serious handicap
to the operations of the coal miners
unions
By "eheck-off' is meant the col
lection by the operators from their
employees who are members of the
United Mine Workers of America, of all
dues and assessments made against
these employees by that organization.
It is worthy of note that so binding is
that obligation on operators that they
must deduct from their employees
earnings and pay out to the United
Mine Workers of America these dues
and assessments before even the living
expenses of the employees are met.
The suit out of which grew Judge
Anderson's order, was filed by West
Virginia coal operators who alleged
that unlawful combinations exist at
this time that are responsible for &C
t.vities which are a menace to indus
trial peace in West Vfrginia.s The in
functions prayed for were filed by the
Borderland Coal Corporation on be-
half of sixty-three coal companies in
tho state.
Processes were served on John L.
Lewis and other high officials of the
q. NJ. W. of A.
f. /. Greever, of counsel for the
coal producers, made the following
statement concerning the suits:
The bill sets out the conspiracy
entered into in 1898 between the
United Mine Workers of America on
the one side and the coal operators of
the central competitive field, COM
posed of Indiana, Ohio, Illinois and
western Pennsylvania, on the other
part. This conspiracy was brought
about by the reason of the increasing
and sharp competition of West Vir-
ginia coal with that of the central
competitive fields. Its object was to
increase the cost of production IN
West Virginia in order to lessen this
competition. 1t was agreed by parties
to this conspiracy that operators of
the central competitive field would
grant such demands of the United
Mine Workers of America, including
the closed shop. the eight-hour day
and the 'check-off' and in conse-
quenoe thereof, the United Mine
Workers of America agreed to organ
lie the West Virginia mines for the ex-
press purpose of controlling the pro-
duction OF West Virginia coal, increas-
ing the cost of production and thus
making West Virginia coal less. dan
gerous in the competitive market"
Judge Anderson apparently believ-
ing this allegation to be true, also en-
Joined further attempts of the U. NJ.
W. A. to organize the West Virginia
territory.
The national organization now has
on hand not only fight with the
courts but a fight within its own
ranks. AS long as the unions waged
war with employers they usually were
victorious, but since they have been
locking horns with the government
they are faring badly.
