food—all tend to irritate the temper,
derange the digestion, weaken the nerves

The ebbing tide of health must be.

After being in progress for three i
months Scran ton silk strike came to an
end today. The company gives the
weavers an increase of about 20 cents a
day and allows them to appoint one of
their number to measure the silk. The
other employes got increases ranging
from 8 to 12 per cent and a half holiday
on Saturdays during the summer with
full pay.

" Let me add my testimony to the
wonderful curative qualities of Dr. Miles'
Nervine. After dodtoring with several
eminent physicians and trying advertised
remedies for what was pronounced one
of the most stubborn cases of nervous
prostration, I found a permanent cure in
Nervine. I believe it to be the greatest
remedy of the age for those afflicted as I
was." JOHN M. GRESHAM,

BREVITIES.
J You will waste time if you try to euro
I indigestion or dyspepsia by starving
j yourself. That only makes it worse when
you do eat heartily. You always need
plenty of good food propoyly digested.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the result of
years of scientific research for something
that would digest not only some elements
of food but every kind. And it is the
one remedy that will do it. Grover's

INSURANCE FOR DRUGGISTS.
Protected From Rlnckmsll and Mis
takes In Miiini; Drans.
i One of the latest tilings in the fidelity
1 and casualty liue Is to insure druggists
against what is called the wrong pre
| script ion man. For .sls or $25 a year
several companies down town guaran
tee druggists against damages arising
from mistakes in compounding drugs.
One of the most successful of these
companies has 950 chemists of New
| York, Jersey City, Newark and New
Ilaven 011 its list of subscribers.
, The idea of insuring druggists
I against loss from their own mistakes
originated in the belief of a number
of leading pharmacists that they were
the victims of a gang of rogues who
made a practice of pretending that
wrong medicines had been given to
some member of their families, some
-1 times with serious results. The gang
| was partly broken up by the fidelity
j company which first assumed the re
sponsibility of protecting druggists at
$5 a year each. An officer of this com
pany says that there are fully 1,000
mistakes 11 year in the compounding of
drugs.
"While there are so many genuine
mistakes," he continued, "there are
many alleged errors in mixing medl
j eines, and some of the complaints are
invented for the sole purpose of ex
; torting money from the retail drug
gists. Our company guarantees to pro
tect druggists against themselves, but
our main desire is to prevent fraud on
the part of those who want to black
mail one of our clients for something
he lias not done.
, "It is a serious matter to make a
! mistake in mixing drugs, but it is fre
| qucntl.v even more serious to the drug
| gist to have it noised about tlint such
| a mistake was made. I have known
chemists to be forced out of business
by the publicity given to the fact that
they made a blunder. Dishonest per
sons have recognized the fear that
I druggists have of an exposure of tills
kind and have taken advantage of the
I knowledge.
| "Since we undertook to protect them
a number of druggists have confessed
to paying big sums to persons who said
| mistakes were made. I have the names
: of half a dozen so called doctors who
I have aided an east side gang that was
engaged in the business of bleeding
chemists.
i "Still, there is nothing really remark
■ able in this protection of druggists.
| For instance, we have a special insur
| anco for saloon keepers, guaranteeing
them against financial loss through be
ing locked up for violation of the ex
cise law."—New York Sun.

Mr. M. B. Thrasher, a friend of Tus
| kegee institute and Its pupils, says
that lie once made inquiries about a
! certain graduate, a shopkeeper in Aln
i bama, who seemed to be doing a thriv
ing business.
"What kind of a man is this Wood,
the colored merchant down the street?"
he asked in the store of a white man,
judging that there if anywhere lie
might hear an unfavorable opinion.
The merchant supposed Mr. Thrasher
to be a traveling salesman and answer
ed:
"You can sell him any amount of
goods. He'll pay for them every time."
Then Mr. Thrasher went on to the
store, where lie found everything hi
the most prosperous condition. In the
course of his talk with the merchant
they stepped to the open back door, and
there Wood began calling: "Suke, suke,
suke! Ho, there, suke!"
Then there came a grunting under
neath the floor, which was raised n lit
tle from the ground, and presently
there came crawling out an enormous
hog.
"That's my hog," said the merchant.
"I raise one every year, though there's
no reason why I should, for I'm not:
married, and I don't keep house. I
raise them as object lessons. It does
not take much of anything to feed
them, except the waste from the store,
and see how fat they grow!
"Then I get the negro farmers who
come here to trade to look at ray hog
and see what can be done by keeping
the animals shut up and fed instead of
letting them run wild. Then I tell
them they might as well have hogs
like mine as their thin rnzorhacks. All
they need do is to shut up the pig in
a pen of rails and set the children to
gathering acorns for liim.
"I can't start a school here," ho con
cluded. "I tried that and failed, but
I can at least tench the farmers how to
raise liogs."

THE FACTORY GIRL.
now She Toils nsd Ekes Out nn Ex
istence 011 552.n0 a Week.
I was left an orphan two years ago.
I engaged In an cast side factory for
£2.50 a week because I was unskilled,
out I am still working at the same
wages. I get up at 5 o'clock in the
morning. There is no heat in the house
where I board. There are other girls
in the house, and each one of us has
some part of the work to do.
When I go to the kitchen, I scrub the
floor. Then I run back to my room,
put on my other dress, comb my hair,
run back and get breakfast and then
walk to the factory. The boarding
house is near the factory, ami I save
10 cents a day in car fare. lam at the
factory by 7 o'clock. I am tired when
I begin, but I do not think of it any
more than I can help.
At the noon hour I go to dinner.
Factory girls do not wave luncheon.
When 1 go to dinner I also help wait
upon others and do a few chores, after
which I hurry back to the factory. It
is hurry, hurry, hurry.
At 0 o'clock the day's work at the
factory is over and, weary enough, 1
go back to the boarding house.
After supper the dishes are to wash
and put away, and some work is done
to make ready for breakfast.
One morning in the week I get up
before 5 o'clock anil do 1113' laundry
before breakfast, for a factory girl
who works for $2.50 a week must
i wash and iron her own clothes. There
is just one thing in tlds which helps
to lighten the burden—a factory girl
does not have many clothes, so the
washing is light. I do my ironing in
(lie evening after supper. 1 do my
patching whenever I can. When Sun
day comes I am almost too tired to go
to church. I wonder why some kind
hearted church people do not send us
a preacher to the boarding house once
a month and some music.
1 have never been to a theater but
once in four years. I have but one
dress in which to appear when I go
out 011 Sunday for a walk. 1 have had
it four years. A factory girl's dress
J costs about 4 cents a yard, her stock
j ings 10 cents, her shoes 50 cents or
I less. I have no gloves but a pair of
[ mittens. Whatever we wear, is out of
i style. That is why we wear bargains.
J Everything a factory girl wears comes
| from a bargain counter. It took me
| nearly six months to save up $3, with
i which I have got a jacket. My hat
; cost 15 cents, and 1 have another which
1 wear on Sunday. It cost me sl.
( I have about 00 cents a week on
which to dress myself after 1 have
j paid for actual necessities,
j The room where I sleep, sew and
j sometimes read lias several beds in it.
j Two of us sleep in one lied. In an
-1 other there are three.
I Do I ever think of having n home
for myself? Sometimes the thought
comes to me, but 1 put it away. What
chance Is there for a factory girl ever
to get a home?— Annie Smith in New
! York World.
Another Knockout.
! Union labor in New Ilaven got a set
hack by an opinion given to the board
of education by the corporation eoun
j sel, A. Heaton Robertson. Recently
! the court of common council, composed
of the aldermen and eouncilmen of the
j city, passed a resolution ordering that
all contracts hereafter Issued by the
i board of education should contain
clauses that only union workmen In
good standing be hired on such con-
I tracts.
! The board of education asked the
j corporation counsel if such contracts
] would he legal, and he reported they
would not on the ground that such a
| clause would be unconstitutional, be
i lause it would prevent competition in
| bidding and would tend to create and
i recognize a privileged class. Such
| contracts would be void beyond ques
] tion, lie says. The corporation counsel
j concludes:
j "Rut even if there was 110 such pro
[ vision In the city charter the power to
j discriminate in favor of union labor,
| either by the court of common council
: or the board of education, Is beyond
1 the authority or scope of either board.
! whether acting together or separately,
J because It interferes with tiie discre
tionary power which is vested in the
j different departments of the city gov
ernment In making contracts, as ii
j effectually tics their hands and pre
vents their availing themselves of op
i portunities to make advantageous
agreements in behalf of the city, and
| any taxpayer, under these circum
stances, would have a right to enjoin
the city from consummating such a
j contract.
j "This very question, whether a city
i lias 11 right In making contracts to dis
! criminate in favor of union men, has
| been decided by a number of courts,
; and in every case the court has decid
ed against such a right."
Bit; Strike For Plttsbnrgr.
A recent Pittsburg dispatch says: A
| series of strikes affecting between 100,-
000 and 150,000 men is likely to be in
augurated April 1 unless the building
and other trades, including structural
iron and steel manufacturers, comply
with the demands of the labor organi
zations. Tile trades directly concerned
will be carpenters, joiners, bricklayers,
stonemasons, painters, plasterers,
plumbers and others allied. The big
amalgamated associations of iron, steel
| and tin workers arc involved.
One Tiling: nt n Time.
! The industrial council of Kansas City
| believes in pushing one boycott at a
time and lias a committee that is at
work continually. All of the unions
place a tine of from $5 to $25 on mem
bers who patronize a boycotted firm,
j This system is a great improvement,
1 It is said, over the old plan of having
I several fights going on at once.
