Boston, Mass., March 24.—The great Lawrence strike, which brought |in its train increased wages for 275, 000 textile workers in New England, was officially declared off at all the mills in Lawrence today, having ac- complished its purpose, in the opinion of the leaders. | In this connection it-is generally be- lieved, too, that advances in wages or reduction in hours to paper-mill employes, bagging and burlap work- ;ers, machinists and operatives in other industries are all traceable, directly or ihdirectly, to the move- iment which had its origin in Law- rence. The total number of persons thus | to benefit is considerably upward of ' 300,000. Advances in the price of woolen and cotten goods already made or which are in prospect prob- |ably will place upon the ultimate con- |ditional cost to the textile manufac- ; turers. This will aggregate between $10,- |000,000 and $12,000,000 during the next year, it is estimated. I buy more market horses direct from the farmers than any man in the world. SHOW ME YOUR GOOD DRAFT HORSES. Hume, Thursday, April 4 Rich Hill, Friday, April 5 Pastor Gives Ten Rules for Mothers. Tulsa, Ok., March 23.—In a ser- mon upon “The Modern Mother,’’ Rev. Percy Knickerbocker, pastor of the Boston Avenue M. E. Church, South, laid down a new set of Ten Commandments for the guidance of the modern worldly woman. They are: Thou shalt have no other man ex- cept thy husband; neither shalt thou eye another. Thou shalt not neglect thy home for club or bargain sale or suffragette propaganda or any female meeting place whatsoever. Thou shalt not be a peach on the street, a pippin in society, and a lem- on in the home. Thou shalt not wear $50 bonnets and imported lingeries when thy hus- band wears 10-cent socks and hand- me-down trousers; neither shalt thou keep thy husband’s nose to the grind- stone perpetually until he be a broken and beaten old man. Thou shalt not play bridge whist for prizes or valuable consideration, nor shalt thou sip the sparkling glass, on pain of thy son’s damnation. Thou shalt use the same _blandish- ments on thy husband that thou didst use on thy sweetheart, and he shall always be thy lover. Thou shalt not nag thy husband, thy son, thy daughter, nor thy ser-, vant within thy house. shalt it be, and thy sons and daugh- ae Shall rise up and call thee bless- er Thou shalt not neglect to pray for |ly small, a fraction of 1 cent a yard in thy children; neither ‘shalt thou neg- lect to spank them as occasion de- mands.
