Climate affects such matters. For

logical and desirable there. since 1t

Each housekeeper must study her
own conditions and decide whether IL

There should also be cooperation

HIGHER WAGE SEEN
IN THE INDUSTRIES
Bureau of Labor's Analysis
Covers Organizations in
AZ Manufactures.

Figures of the United States bureau
Of labor statistics indicate that the
extraordinary rates of pay being re-
ceived by certain classes Of workmen
in the building trades would have a
tendency to increase wages generally.
The bureaus preliminary figures
for May indicate a general increase
in wages in 1879 Industrial establish

reau's analysis covers 6.075 repre-
sentative organizations in forty-seven
manufacturing Industries, and the
figures disclose that the increase ex-
tended to 20 per cent of the Industrial
field under review.
The average wage increase was a
10.4 per cent and 1t is perhaps sig
nificant that the iron and steel. brick
and tile and lumber Industries were
among those granting higher wages.
1t might naturally be expected that
the building trades would be first
reflected in industries so closely al
lied to the construction industry as
the foregoing.
The extent to which the wage infla-
tion in the building industry has
been influential in effecting the in
creases, Is. of course, conjecturaI

GOOD WALL PAPER
DOES DOUBLE DUTY
Covers Cracks and Decorates and
Has Poor Rival in
Plaster.

Wall paper is not as tough or as
lasting as a reinforcement for plas-
tered walls as a heavy canvas or
burlap. but 1t is strong enough and
tough enough to insure prevention Of
cracks showing through during the
life of the paper as a decoration. 1t
has been proven that wall paper OF
a good quality will prevent the show
ing of cracks for a period of two or
three years, whereas the uncovered
wall or the wall which has not been
treated other than to be kalsomined
or painted will show defects within
six months.
This tendency of plastered walls to
show cracks or other defects within
a short period makes 1t apparent that
until a method of construction has
been discovered whereby these condi-
tions will cease to exist, wall paper
appears to be a useful article to con-
slider.
The acid test OF economy and eff
cient management. has discovered
economic values hitherto overlooked
or underestimated Whereas in the
recent past there was mucn appreCla-
tfon and exploitation of plain, painted
and paneled walls, it has apparently
been discovered by large investors in
hotel and apartment property that
certain defects in the construction of
walls make the cost of keeping
painted walls in good condition pro-
hibitive, with the result that there
has returned a renewal of apprecia-
tion of wall paper.
In this connection 1t is surprising
that the ability of wall paper to
cover uneven surfaces and to
strengthen the thin plaster she'll of
walls was not hitherto appreciated
to the extent that 1t deserved. 1t
has not been generally recognized
that wall paper possessed this virtue.
but 1t Is a fact known by practical
workers that. when rightly applied.
wall papers form real protector of
plastered wall surfaces, and. while it
is true that the weakness of plaster
is recognized, other and more expen-
/ sive materials have been adopted to
| overcome the defects which wall
paper overcomes at minimum cost

.BUILT:IN CUPBOARDS
HOUSEKEEPERS' BOON

Builtin closets or cupboards are
features of permanent equipment
which are most important to the
housekeeper. If she has anything to
do with planning her house, she
should try to locate them where it
takes the least possible number of
steps to get at or put away their
contents.
A small closet provided with
shelves and drawers especially adapt
ed to the things kept there is more
satisfactory than large closet poorly
arranged. In planning drawers II is
well to remember that a large num-
ber of shallow ones are usually pre-
ferable to few deep ones. because
all of the space In them can be used
without piling things on top of each
other. Similarly narrow shelves, pre-
ferably not more than a foot wide,
are usually more convenient than
larger ones and are easier to keep
clean.
Many housekeepers prefer the NOV
able kitchen cabinets to built-in cup
boards for kitchen supplies because
they have convenient place for all
the necessary things and have no
waste space.

BY ROGER w. BABsoN.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
WELLESLEY HILLS. Mass, July
2S.-It Is true that a number of the
barometers Of business are distinctly
favorable at the present time. In
order to be absolutely fair to every
one I even took pains to enumerate
these in a published statement only
, a month ago. The merchants are not
overstocked: manufacturers have not
been speculating in raw materials;
banks have good resources; check
transactions are normal; railroad
earnings are exceptionally good. and
our great industries are apparently
on sound basis.
NV critics are correct in their. state
ment that surface Indications point
to a wonderful business this fall. and
perhaps two or three years of rising
prices. / realize these rising figures
as we'll as any one and II is very hard
for me to sound a warning while SO
many are so optimistic and so con-
tented.
ReadjuStment Not Completed.
My reason for sounding a warning
Is twofold. First, the Rabson chart
of business conditions shows clearly
that the period of readjustment is
only about so per cent completed. and
that further readjustment is inevita-
BILE. Second. that the attitude of the
younger generation is distinctly
harmful to the present situation.
That is to say. my warning Is based
both on statistics and on a study Of
the spiritual forces underlying busi-
ness.
OF course, in reality, the spiritual
or moral forces are by far the more
important as they really determine
what statistics and the chart will
later show The attitude of the peo-
pie bears the same relation to the
chart and to statistics that the tenn
perature bears to the thermometer. or
