LABOR OUTRAGES DUE TO OLD LAWS Such Is Opinion of Jane Addams, Famous Sociological Student.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2. Application of old liwi to new conditions baa a tendency to develop men of the McNamara type In the opinion of Mies Jane Addams, who returned to the city after presenting a petition to President Taft asking for the appointment of a commission to study the relations between employers and employes. There Is ft vast hinterland between the "ballot" and the immediate economic needs and demands of workers, according to Miss Addams. The propaganda of the Socialists to "vote as you strike" does not meet the requirements, as men are Interested in the immediate things which affect their bread and butter, and If they are denied them they are apt to resort to the use of dynamite, as did the McNamaras. "It seems to me that all our laws dealing with labor unions are In need or revision." said Miss Addams. "The trusts are being prosecuted for violating laws, which they assert are not applicable to modern Industrial conditions. So with the labor unions. Like the trusts, the labor unions are of recent origin, and laws enacted at a time when conditions were entirely different are being applied to them. The result Is a growing distrust in the Judiciary among large groups of labor, as they see employers appeal to. the courts to thwart . every v movement made to Improve the status of the worker. There is no denying the fact that the courts have shown a willingBess to serve, the Interests of the employers and have placed property rights higher than human rights. 'The courts are following traditions and precedents that do not fit into the modern scheme of things. "It Is not enough to condemn the use of dynamite and denounce the McNamaras as criminals. We should try nd reach the underlying causes that suggest dynamite, and that is what I believe a commission could do. A federal grand jury is now investigating the shipping of dynamite across state "boundary lines. We want light along a more crucial boundary line the borderland between Industry and democracy. "I have, of course, no idea what President Taft will do about a commission, but he received us very cordially and appeared to be much Interested In the question. I am hopeful that such, a commission will be created and i' feel confident that it would accomplish good results."

Rtd Rabbits, 1t1? sensation, 2-3-4

BY E8THER GRIFFIN WHITE. Man is a curious beast. When he wants to "celebrate" he proceeds to "cross the bar." What occult connection there is between welcoming tne New Year, in instance, and "whooping it up" to the tune of unlimited champagne and the hot pursuit of the merry cocktail, Is one of the things that causes annual wonder. On New Year's eve hitherto entirely respectable, if occasionally lapsing gentlemen, will dance jigs on the table and offer osculatory affection to any within hail. Dispatches from the gay metropolis tell of revelries by night of dancing in the middle of Broadway of progressive kissing by heady college boys and other madnesses. If a man wants to be happy he can think or nothing better than to fill his stomach. An exalted ideal to be sure and truly masculine. After all is said and done, it is hard to maintain a high level of spirituality. Man is material so is woman. We cannot live on art alone. Nor yet religion. Even the clergy eat. Some of 'em maybe drink and others are perchance merry. The writer remembers a brace of evangelists who once sojourned at her home while "conducting a revival meeting." These people denounced "the world's people." They lambasted those who tricked themselves out in gay attire. They excoriated those who hankered after "the leeks and onions." Whenever they talked about the leeks and onions their eyes shone. One could almost smell an onion and see a leek peeping around the corner. Their discourse, indeed, inspired a desire to run home and set the pot boiling at once. They had a sort of Juicy, alluring, loving way of holding up the degenerate leek and the depraved onion before the horrified and gloating gaze of the congregation that reminded one of nothing more than a free lunch advertisement in our special issue. The writer, being infantile and unsophisticated, feared bodily injury and assault upon the persons of her elders when she beheld them offering these holy ones beefsteak, mashed potatoes, cabbage and custard pie. She expected to see them coldly refuse it and ask for a crust of bread and a draft from the kitchen pump. Imagine her amazement to see them consenting to large and generous helpings of beef and gravy, the while they crunched and masticated with undisguised enjoyment. The writer could not believe her own childish eyes. She bad been deeply affected by the evangelistic ministrations had, indeed, resolved to swear off on leeks and onions and lead a righteous life, but her faith wavered 'when she beheld the rapid disappearance of the beefsteak and the custard pie. Later, when sent with a message to the chamber of the lady evangelist and discovering this godly woman trying on her mother's new hat, the while she viewed herself with admiration in a handglass her belief in sojourning evangelists suffered such a severe

jolt it was permanently dislocated. The component parts of the various "hers" in the preceding paragraph will readily arrange themselves into a unified whole when pedagogically ap

plied. Anyway it made what is sometimes termed an "undying impression" upon the infant. It destroyed a beautiful illusion belief in the consistency of the purveyors of morals. What might not have happened If she had not beheld the denouncers of leeks and onions wallowing in beefsteak and pie and admiring themselves In the looking glass In borrowed plumage. None may know. Perhaps she might have gone out

as a missionary to ther South Sea Islands. If this tale has any moraj and morals are always obnoxious it is that evangelists should either be careful with whom they board or of the texts upon which they animadvert too eloquently. It Is true, however, that people cannot keep it up all the time. And it is not worth while trying. It is much more comfortable to frankly admit you're a fraud -because you can then be as inconsistent as you please. And no one can reproach you. If they do you point to the milestone at which you stopped and publicly announced your degenerate and depraved decision to hereafter lead a consistent life by no longer posing to have aspirations that you could never locate with a thousand candle power field glass. There's nothing funnier than the people who pretend that they are interested in art. This is one of the commonest types of the horrid sham.

Could there be a fitter subject for the. pencil of McCutcheon, say, than the members of our Common Council owlishly patrolling about our public art galleries gazing in resigned and profane boredom at the best picture

ever painted by an Indiana artist?

Think of listening to a high-brow

dissertation on "aht" whenever they

reach the thirty-third degree and can

tell a high light from a middle dis

tance they always call it "aht" when with all your soul you longed to be at

the vaudeville or the moving picture

show.

Haven't you gone to a concert and

seen rows of "tired business men"

sulking through a symphony or growl ing at an aria?

Did you ever go to a lecture aside

from the peculiar brand served up at

the Chautauqua where a sort of re

ligious vaudeville is maintained and see a man, aside from a college professor who manifested the slightest interest in the emanations from the

platforms?

Weren't they mostly asleep or in a

state of apathy?

What's the use pretending' you revel in Shakespeare and swallow Emerson whole when you loll in a hammock reading Marie Corelli and Mary Jane

Holmes.

What's the use saying you take a

cold plungs every morning when you

never had one in your life.

Everybody's on to you. They know you probably bathe every Saturday

night and not oftener.

Perhaps there are more lies to the

square inch told about "the bath' than about any other one thing un

less it's love. People who have porcelain bathtubs in their houses bathe in

washpans in the kitchen.

You can pick 'em out on every

block. Then there is the mighty hunter.

Like the Englishman he sticks his

head out of the window and says "ah.

a fine day. I will go out and kill something."

The practice of one animal shoot

ing and then eating another is degrading and noxious. The vegetarian is the only true humanitarian. And the only aesthete. Think of how odious, loathsome and disgusting a pig is when Been reposing in the mire. And how good it tastes when serv

ed up trimmed with parsley. "Do you know what you're writing about?" aske the man at the next desk. "If you'll admit that the flesh-eating man " "I will admit nothing," said the man at the next desk. "Unless," he added hopefully, "you'll stop and go home."

STOP COUGHS SAVE MONEY The Advantages of the "Logos Plan" of Home Prepared Remedies. As is well known, the great majority of reliable cough remedies are ninetenths "simple syrup" and one-tenth real medicine. This is all right, because the medicine is too strong to take alone. But why pay the high prices asked two dollars for fifty cents worth of medicine mixed with a pint of syrup? That is what most reliable cough rem

edies cost you. Wiiy not get your fifty cents worth of medicine for just fifty

cents and supply the syrup yourself!

for what it is worth, thus saving almost $1.50 on every pint. That is the advantage of the "Logos Plan." It gives you a full two dollars' worth of a logical, effective, reliable and safe cough syrup at a cost of about 56 cents. Follow this recipe: Dissolve one pound of sugar in half pint of water; add two ounces of Logos cough remedy Ex tract; shake and it is ready for use. If you can't get the Logos cough remedy Extract at your druggists, send fifty cents in stamps direct to Logos Remedy Company, Fort Wayne, Ind.
