When he was abeut two years old his parents removed to Michigan, and after an early life of toil he received a common school edu- cation and then'studied law at Ann Arbor. He was admitted to the bar in 1875 and two years later removed to Bismarck, N. D., where he prac- ticed law until 1885, when he was appointed United States attorney for the territory of Dakota. He held that office until 1888, when he be- came associate justice of the terri- On the admis- sion of North and South Dakota as States Judge Carland removed to Sioux Falls, where he engaged in the practice of law until 1896, when he was appointed United States judge for the district of South Dakota, which office he was holding at the time he was selected by President Taft for one of the associate justices of the new Court of Commerce. COPPPPPPOPPOOOO® © Notes From the Labor World, © R R R R R R R R R R R R R R A union lodge of machinists has recently been instituted in Hawaii and one in Haiti. Cleveland, O., paperhangers are discussing the proposition of declar- ing war on the piecework system. In the factories of Switzerland the predominant hours are nine and one- half to ten, and on Saturdays one hour less. There are at present fifteen in- ternational organizers in Minneapo- lis, Minn., and at least a dozen of them will remain there indefinitely. New York’s wage earners number 1,400,000, of which the workers in factories lead all the rest with a to- tal of 600,000. The store clerks are| next in line with 290,000. The members of the British.Steel Smelters’ Union have voted largely in favor of a move for the eight-hour day, and the officials of the union have asked for a conference with the employers to discuss the demand. The Michigan State Federation of Labor has added about one hundred new affiiliations the last year and it appears now as if this federation will soon be the foremost in line of state federations, both in number and ac- tivity. J Last year there was paid for the relief of the unemployed members of trade unions, out of the funds in the union treasuries, not less than $5,000,000. This expenditure does not include several millions of dol- lars paid in strike and lookout bene- fits. The carmen’s unions of Oakland and Richmond, Calif., as a result of recent referendum vote, have decided to consolidate under one charter. This will, it is said give the union the largest membership of any or- ganization of carmen in the United - States. A bill passed by the New York leg- islature, amending the labor law, went into-effect recently. It is.de- signed to provide better sanitary con- ditions in bakeries. It classes bak- eries as factories and places them un- der the jurisdiction of the state la- bor commission. - Out of every thousand of those whose occupation calls for constant work in dusty quarters, five died of consumption, according to German official figures, where as among: those Wwho are not exposed to the actionyof: dust, only two out of a thousand die of .the disease named. b Twenty-five coeds are working as r through: a four-year. toutse at.

A Poet Who Dreaded Fire: Thomas Gray, author of the “Elegy,’ had a weakness in the form of a nerv- ous dread of fire. His chamber at St. Peter's college, Cambridge, being on the second floor, he thought it likely that in case of a fire his exi by- the caused an iron bar to be fixed by ‘arms projecting from the, outside of his win- dow, designing by a rope attached thereto to descend in the event of a fire occurring. This excessive caution led to a practical joke by his fellows. One midnight a party of students thundered at his door with loud cries of “Fire, fire!” The mnervous poet flew to his window and slid down the rope to the ground, where he was hail- ed with shouts of laughter. The win- dow, with its iron apparatus, is stil shown, it is saild. Gray's delicate na- ture was so shocked by this rough joke that he changed his lodgings. RESTORE GRAY HAIR T0 NATURAL COLOR By Common Garden Sage, a Simple Remedy for Dandruff, Falling; Fad- ed, Gray Hair.. The old id¢a of using sage for darkening the hair is again coming in vogue. - Our grandmothers used to have dark, glossy hair at the age of seventy-five, while our mothers have white hair before they are fifty. Our grandmothers used to make a “sage tea” and apply it to their hair. The tea made their hair soft and glossy, and gradually restored the natural color. One objection to using such a prep- aration was the trouble of making it, especially as it had to be made every two or three days, on account of souring quickly. This objsction has been overcome, and by asking almost any first-class druggist for Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem- edy thie public can get a superior preparation of sage, with the admix- ture of sulphur, another valuable remedy for hair” and scalp troubles. Daily use of this preparation will not only quickly restore the color of the hair, but will also stop the hair from falling out and make it grow. Get a bottle from your druggist to- day. Use it and see for yourself how quickly dandruff goes and gray hairs vanish. This preparation is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle, and is| recommended and sold by all drug- gists.
