EVEN PERSIA SEES THE LIGHT

Frightful Conditions of Chlld Labor in . That Country Have Been Greatly ; Ameliorated. . ;

Child ‘carpet weavers of Persia are to have an easier life hereafter. According to the London Daily News, by an agreement between the carpet trads ing companies and the Union of Master Weavers in -Kerman, no boy may now work in a factory before eight years of age or a girl before ten. An eight-hour day is ‘the maximum for children under fourteen. ;

In addition, not only must the sheds be properly heated, but the little workers are to be given .seats with backs on ‘which to sit as they work, singing the song which tells of the pattern they are making; they are often too young to remember it by any other method. :

~ Bishop Lintoen of the Church Missionary society, in his “Sketches on Persia,” ‘tells how in .low, unheated sheds the children from four or five upward have hitherto sat knotting threads all day and every day. ; As the pattern climbs the loom the rough beam on which the children sit Is raised.. To prevent themselves falling to the ground they cross their legs underneath, and at the end of the day’'s ‘work they have to be lifted down, as they are teo cramped to walk. Many. are permanently crippled and can never support themselves on their legs o« : i - More horrible still is the custom of marriage at eight or nine years. Motherhood for these little. cripples means certain death,

Baden Railroad Adopts Unique Sys- . tem to Avoid Complaints Made , . by Passengers. S

Late arrivals at the ticket windows of rallway stations in Baden hereafter will ask the clerks at the windows in vain the price of the tickets they buy, writes a Berlin correspondent of the New York Herald. Instead, they will retire to the other side of the room, where a large and complicated table of rates Is posted. There, with pencil and paper, they will multiply the rate they finally pick out from the mass of figures by the pumber of kilometers appearing upon the ticket they have been given and pay accordingly at the window. e i

The railway effielals announce that when the price of a ticket is printed it becomes obsodste within a few days and passengers @@mplain that they are b,eing.overcharm;ad hold up trafiic. On .the other hﬁ they add, the employees at the fieket windows cannot be expected to Meep up to date with the 'prices of thgkets to every place along the line, #® #t I 8 up to the passengers to do the figuring for themselves. : 5

SUFFERED WITHOUT A GROAN

Almost Unbelievable Story of Fortitude Exhibited by Mortally Wounded - Sioux Indian Brave. =

American Horse—a splendid example of the Sioux, stalwart, broad-chested and imperious—had been shot through the abdomen and his intestines were protruding from the wound. But his wife hdstened to him and wrapped a shawl about his middle to hold them in. e !

~ With never a word of complaint he walked the distance to a camp fire and _sat down. It was some little time, ' says Adventure Magazine, before the ‘surgeons tending the wounded, white and red, reached him. An operation was necessary. American Horse declined chloroform in the tepee to which he had been removed. He had his own palliative. He spoke a few words to his .wife, who scuttled out and returned with a short piece of hard wood. This he thrust between his teeth; he motioned the surgeons to proceed. : : ; . .

During the terrible work upon him the sweat stood out umpon his fore head, he bit deeply into the stick, but he uttered never a groan, nor did he fiinch. As he well knew, the wound was mortal; but he insisted upon sitting up, until just before dawn, he fell bick—he died as silently as he had suffered. He was man and Indian to the end. .

The annals of the plains are filled with heroism, but there is no Instance more striking In bare simplicity and naked fortitmse than this end of American Horse, who fought the good fight and losts, o £

EREAKFASTS, BIG AND LITTLE

Really Makes Littie Difference, Provided Requisite Amount of Exercise Is Taken, -

Hearty breakfasts are re¢commended after being frowned on by many dietitians for long.. Appetite, like conscience, was whispering the truth all the time. And those who “basely ylelded and distended their rosy morning cheeks with wads of sirup-dripping buckwheat - cakes and gobs of ham and eggs, went right on keeping those rosy cheeks; while the pale flowers of ‘'abstinence who niggardly and dolefully lifted to their sad mouths the breakfast provender Irrigated with skim milk, grew no less pale if not more So. = =

One must interject distinctly here, that the robust and roseate, also made their muscular activity consume the heavy fuel their appetites demanded; for a generous breakfast should not be coddled by a whole day in an easy chair or even in a swivel one. |- -

Eat what you like, but hike, hike, hike. ‘“Shall/T be carried to the skies on flowery beds of ease?’ Precisely that is where one will be carried quite promptly by heavy meals and no exerc¢ise—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Fire Truck Has Four-Wheel Drive. Fire-fighting apparatus has been improved upon to the extent of equipping large trucks with individual motor drives in each wheel and raising or lowering the ladders by air and hydraulic' pressure, says an {illustrated article in Popular Mechanics Magazine, The current for the driving motors is supplied from powerful storage batteries which are suspended beneath the frame of the vehicle. An alr compressor, driven by a gasoline engine, is incorporated in the outfit and furnishes the necessary elevating power for:the heavy ladders, the lowering of these being accomplished with the ald of oil brakes, or compression cylinders. The action of the ladders is so simple that but one man is required to operate them. - o

That a code of ethics exists among men of all work was discovered recently by a Woodlawn householder who hired a man-to beat her rugs. She had seen the man loafing on the corner and asked him if-he wanted a Job. - He said he was a truckman, and that he received 75 cents an hour when employed. He was engaged to beat the rugs at that figure. Finishing with the rugs, the householder asked him if he would put in three or four more hours scrubbing the kitchen floor. He certainly would not, although he needed the money. That was woman’s work, he sald, and he did not do it even at home. His wife had to do that—Exchange. . S :

Canada Wars on Beavers. = Beavers have become so destructive ; along the St. Lawrence river that owners of islands in Canadian and Unit-’ ed States waters have been given permission by the Dominion government to exterminate them on the Canadian side of the boundary. ’ T An experienced trapper has been engaged for the season and will make his headquarters on Dillingham’s island. S . g

Beavers have not been- seen along the St. Lawrence before in a quarter of a century, They are protected by game laws on the New York side of the river. : : ‘ e _ Pay for Nonsuccess.

Paying up cost unsuccessful candidates at the recent British election something -Uke $35,000. England has a law which requires a man whe puts himself forward for parliament before he has enough popular esteem to get one-eighth of the votes cast in his | district to forfeit the sum which amounts to approximately $7OO in our ' money.
