Lake M’Luke Says
MiiiiES’ mmi ¥mm anb dan lAiiiy figui
Eugenics means that a man with
a face like a cement crusher
should not marry a i^’rl with a
nap like a dough mixer. But
they often do. That is why
there are miany little cement
crushers and dough mixers in
the world.
ivly idea of a fine iob is to be
the husband of one of tnose
British suffragettes.
A woman never gets so old, nor
so fat, nor so homely that she
dosen’t like to tell about what a
queen she was before she mar
ried and how her father had to
keep beans away frcm the house
with a shotgun.
Every wife tells every husband
that she could have as swell a
ligure as any girl if she could
afford expensive corsets like the
other v7omen are weariilg.
A girl’s skirt may be shabby
and worn and her v/aist . soiled
and faded but if her clothes are
clean where you can’t see them
she is happy. lu ^i- • i-a?.
The girls who can afford silk i difter^jce in
stockings never holler about thej made of bo>sin different

No Future For Boys in Glass Works.
874 boys between 14 and 16
were employed in 23 glass fa
ctories visited this winter by H.
H. Jones, special agent of the
National Child Labor Committee.
38 apprentics had been taken on
during the year in these factories
and they were without exception
boys eighteen or nineteen
years old. This means, as Mr.
Jones points out, that for every
100 boys under the age of sixteen
who are permitted to do night
work in glass factories not more
than 4 stand any chance of be
coming skilled workmen. And
in view of the fact that machines
are continually replacing skilled
workmen in the manufacture of
blown ware there will in the
future b^ less and less justifica
tion for the employment of young
boys on the ground that they are
learning a trade, '
Mr. Jones found further that
although each employer claims
that the particular work for which
he uses boys can be done only by

openwork, pink baby ribbon
and pink skin.
The world is growing better,
but we a re still purchasing too
much talcum powder and too lit

When a girl has her own hair
she wants to take it down and
comb it every time she sees a
mirror.
Married men are not as crrnery
as women think they are. They
would’rst lie half as much as
they do if their wives wou’dent
ask so many questions.
Why is it that the children
will run a mile for one of the
neighbors, and won’t go across

The report testifiieS further
that the statements made about
the glass industry in the Federal
Report on the Condition of Wo
man and Child Wage-Earners in
the United States, in 1907-08, do
not exaggerate the conditions
that exist in Pennsylvania, ex
cept that the old style bottle
houses form a very small pro
portion of the industry in that
State. Mr. Jones reviews the
bad effects of night work. He
quotes, by name, glass workers
in different localities who have
not allowed their own boys to
