Thomas E. Mitten, the Chi- cagoan who came to the Quaker city to take over the management of the Rapid Transit company some time before the war, after the line has gone through several Periods of violent labor troubles, died suddenly and when his will was opened and read it was found that the author of “Mitten management” had left the bulk of his $10,- 000,000 estate to set up an endowment for improving the Teiations between capital and labor. In his life Mr. Mitten had tried various ways to achieve the same result. He had interested the employes of the company in investing in its stock and thus becoming sharing owners in the corporation for which they la- bored, and he hac established saving sysiems whereby they could place their spare carnings at interest of a better rate than is usual. The bequest was made but a few days before his death und this invalidated it, but his son and heir decided that the bequest would be carried out. Which is to say that times are changing. Among all the phenomena of present-day life, there probably isn't one that will seem more strange and «:nseless to our @escendants than the thing that we describe with the two words, “labor trouble.” Capital and labor are two peculiar words, the way we use them. We are just beginning to surmise that these ‘words do not represe=t diametrically opposite forces, fated to strive for diametrically opposite goals; indeed, these unborn great-grandchildren of ours may eventually de- cide that our greatest contribution to civilization was our halting, long-delayed, somewhat confused discovery that the aims of capital and labor are, basically, idcitical. Years ago, when the factory system was giving the world something new in the way of stupidity, greed and oppression, it was generally agreed that the workingman and the employer were bound to be enemies. Some men, like Marx, urged the worker to recognize this and declare war to the death; others held that the worker could not conceivably bettcr himself, and that he might as well make the best of it by accepting such thin trickles of Prosperity as might seep down, from time to time, from the upper strata of society. Remnants of that notion are still with us. Indeed, many people do not seem to realize that that theory has been exploded, once and for all. So it is that an inteili- gent, social-manded man like Mr. Mitten feit the need of devoting his fortune to the task of reconciling these two opposing forces. Meanwhile, what has been happening? Simply this: the progress of industrialism has been slowly making it @pparent that the workingman and the employer are seeking the same goal. There is not, fundamentally, any conflict between them. What helps one, helps both; ‘what is bad for one is bad for both. ‘Thus far we have barely got more than a glimmering of this. But the next hundred years will see the idea carried forward amazingly. It is quite absurd to suppose that strikes, lockouts, furious challenges and ultimatums, wasteful and crippling to all concerned, will be tolcrated by an indus‘rialism that once understands its true func- tions. ‘There will be + Gay—not so far distant, either—when no one will dream of leaving money to improve relations between capital and labor. It simply won't be necessary. Joys of the Home Owner ‘The real estate people in t‘:e big cities employ some very clever men to write their advertisements. It is odd that they never seem able to explain the real reasons why owning a home is worth all of the sacrifice that it involves. ‘The advertisements and salesmen talk of “economic ” and the like. They spend a lot of time praising Nice neighborhoods that surround th-ir houses. They hhard to convince the prospective buyer that his wife end children will be much better off with fresh air, @ beck yard and a flower garde. But, somehow, they never quite hit the mark. Every house-holder knows that these things, while they are impor*-:t, are not the real elements that make home-owning « notable expcrience. genuine joys of the home-owner are little things that no man ever speaks about, because they so trifling and unimportant. They are easily for- Sometimes they pass unnoticed. Yet they are that make millions of men glad to meet mort- payments, taxes, insurance premiums and those mounting incidentals that the realtor cannily lists “upkeeo.” what are these things? they don't sound like much.

The lad ha‘ studied the writings of philoy Pla vana, and had grown despondent. he said becatise they impressed him with “the futility of life.” So, at 18, when life should appear at its rosiest, he killed him- self. Will Durant points out that philosophy has been de- fined as “the ort of beiddling oneself methodically.” And while it is quite obvious that the age of 16 is rather early \tor the study of the stupendous problems of life and | death, the suicide of this San Francisco youngster would | seom to indicate the correct ys of that jibe. | 1 is a noteworthy fact, when you stop to think about it, | that the man who grows melancholy over “the futility of life” is usually a man who has learned about life from from experience. books to point out life’s tragedy, many | books to call attention to its mysteries, many books to in- sist that there is no hope in tiis world or the next; but. \life itself, when lived to the full, does not often teach that lesson or create that gloom. For life docs scmething to counteract its lesson of | tragedy. If experience of the world teaches one that! failure and defeat are often the portion of men who de- serve to succeed, it also brings, out of that very failure and defeat, a sense of grandeur and nobility.

Life is a better teacher. | To any man who experiences it to the full, it proves that whatever the final ‘or ov be it can never be futility.

L. Keith reports in the Cottonwood County Citizen. It is that pigs, corn and cattle are taking the place of Politics in the ininds of the average farmer he meets. Stop and talk to a farmer, the congressman says, and he will invite you to come and cee his fine corn, or take @ look at his pigs or ¢attle. He draws the conclusion that the average farmer is more interested in what he is able to do for himself than in what congress will do for him. Pigs are taking the place of politics and cattle have more interest for the farmer than congess. It is greatly to be hoped the farmer will never lose his interest in politics. Yet current events clearly indicate that he will achieve farther in his own behalf by de- voting more attention to pigs and cattle than he does to Politics and politicians. A pig as a pig bulks larger as the medium to accom- plish the things that must be done for the farmer than @ political promise from a politician. That Ripening Melon (Philadelphia Bulletin) hope has been officially held out, are strengthened by | the satisfactory position of the treasury at the end of the first quarter of the fiscal year. Increase in September of nearly all items of income brought receipts for the quar- ter to over a billion dollars, with a gain of $128,959,834 over @ year ago. Last year, on Oct. 1, Uncle Sam had in his strong box @ surplus of Jess than seventy-five millions! Now his books show considerably over a quaricr of a billion to the good. This comfortable position is not wholly due to the nearly $100,000.000 gain in collection of income tax, heavier Payment of cust dues and increase in miscellaneou: receipts, but to decreased transfers to sinking fund at count in the amount of $128,000,000, which will have to be made up iatcr. The government has not fully cashed in on the spec- Ulative profits of the current calendar year, or on the unwonted activity of industry, the results of which may ected to appear in the income tax returns of next year. But it can figure pretty closely on the receipts for the first half of the fiscal year, so that its expectation of lightening the taxpayers’ burden involves no uncertain factor, save that of expenditure. If the policy of economy insisted upon by Presiden: Hoover shail prevail with con- | gress, there ought to be a melon to cut in March. Talkies and the Stage (Newark Star-Eagle) Otis Skinner, clean of American actors, may be re-/ garded os a prejudiced witness when he speaks on the subject of talking pictures.

Bob recognized it, and a strong feeling of repugnance brought a quick de- cision not to enter the house, Eva saw it too, and her own heart went pit-a-pat with happy ex- Pectancy. She had not seen Brent not alone—since the night of Mr. Cunningham's sudden death she had found the situation very dificult to bear. Perhaps tonight, she thought, they would be able to manage & little talk im private. Bob's pres- ence might afford them the oppor- tunity. His words shattered ber hope immediately. “Miss Nellin bas company,” he' said. “Nothing doing, sis, You'd better come on home with me now.” “Oh, Bob, don't be so mean,’ Drotested. “It's only Mr. Brent.” “E don’t iike bim,” Bob said coldty. “But he’s Helen's guardian—! sease. Of course Mr. Greaves is really, but...” “Never sind gabbing about it. honey. That's one hombre I have Bo ure for.” “Then you'll just have to drive back for me,” Eva fared. “All right.” Bob consented. “Call up when you're ready to come home.” But Eva had had « second thought. Leonard might drive her back if she said Bob was not com- ing for her. “Never mind,” she said. “I can take the bus if necessary.” “Well, be sure you don't accept |@ ride from that fellow Brent. If I ever caught him hanging around you...” Eva was getting out of the car and did not answer him. She was that he could not sce the red that she felt flaming into it. eee B® drove away with a speed that accorded well With his per- turbed mind. His pride, having won over his desire, was giving him no satisfaction, On the contrary he was as miserable as though he bad dragged his spirit in the dust. Eva ran up the steps and waited with impatience for Ashe to open the door. “Mr. Brent is with Miss Nellin in the drawing room, miss,” be said Eva hesitated. It might be a business conference, she thought. “Tell Miss Nellin 1 am here, Ashe,” she said and turned away to wait. Helen sent for ber at oncé. “Why so formal?” she smiled when Eva entered the great high-ceilinged room in which there was a fire burning to take off the chill of the late summer night. Eva glanced at Brent. “I thought you might be talking over some thing privately,” she said, * Brent modded courteously but there was no welcome in his man- | ner, Eva went to eit beside Helen on the great divan before the fire. In her eyes there was a faint mist of tears, “We were talking something over,” Helen admitted, “but it isn't at all private. Leno wants me to leave Bramblewood and live in New York.” \ Eva's eyes sought Brent's. He did not look at her. “But somehow I've grown to love his place,” Helen went on. “I think I- shall remodel it and live here always.” Brent impatiently crushed out the cigaret he had been smoking. “But I've taken an apartment for you,” be expostulated. Helen smiled at bim, seized eud- faenty with a desire to tease. “But you aren't my guardian any more, Leno dear,” she said. ; “You msy bring the house eeper,” Brent suggested, taking glad that her face was turned sJ planted Brent as the only person from him he is rejected. Again Brent avoided meeting Eva’s gaze. He wondered if she would guess that one reason he wanted Helen away from Bramble wood was to put an end to their friendship, if it were possible, and avoid these chance meetings. Further discussion of the matter was unwise, he told himself. in a short while he took his departure. Helen went to the door with him and let him kiss her good night. ‘There was no thrill in it. Helen supposed it was because she was so unhappy over her grandfather's death. She missed him greatly. She had not known before his pass- ing to what extent he had sup in the world to whom she felt related.

It is better to have the starchy meals with a bland flavor. If condiments are used at all, they should be taken with the meat meals when one desires a good flow of the stomach juices. When using mustard, pepper, cay- enne, horseradish, catchup, etc., you {must remember that when these sea- |‘ sonings reach the lower intestine most | of the food with which they are eaten | has been digested and absorbed, which 'leaves the irritating portions of the | condiments more and more concen- trated. The first result is irritation, then comes catarrh, and finally in- flammation. When seasonings and spices are used in excessive amounts, they tend to weaken the sense of taste, and al- though when occasionally used they ; are stimulating to the gastric juices, | when used continually they have a | tendency to dry up the secretions. | Horseradish Horseradish is one of the least harmful of the condiments. It is a | native of Europe, but is cultivated on both sides of the Atlantic. It tends to stimulate the secretions of both | salivary and gastric juices. It is gen- \erally grated and served with meat and oysters. It contains some anti- scorbutic vitamins, and large amounts of potassium and sulphur. Catchup Catchup is a combination of toma- toes and various spices and vinegar reduced to a paste of about the con- sistency of thick cream. It is use- ful in flavoring foods, but should never be used with starches, such as potatoes, ne or bread. Pepper Red pepper is made from grinding small hot peppers which contain an irritating substance called capsicum. It is extensively used in Italy, Spain and Mexico, Pepper Pepper is made from a different Plant than the cayenne pepper. The Pepper berries contain alkaloids, piperin and oleresin, and a volatile oil which causes the pungency. Mestard Mustard is derived from the pow- Gered seed of the mustard plant. It is widely used in sandwiches, salad dressings, and on meats. uppermost in his mind tonight.

Usually it comes from salt mines where it is mined some- what like coal. It is also obtainable from sea water which contains about one-fourth of a pound of salt per gallon. If taken into the stomach in large quantities it is irritating. Smail mount may be used for flavoring, as it makes food more appetising, especially when improperly cooked. In using the different condiments, remember that they should be used in moderation, and that they tend to stimulate the digestive juices of the stomach, and are best used with meats, but not with starches. 9 inion ty | Our Yesterdays _— @ FORTY YEARS AGO R.
