Beginning this morning The Call will publish a the new building Labor Department, which will give a complete | passed to print. epitome of the labor news daily. For some years to | owners and all come the labor problem will be one of vital import-| ance to this city and it is the purpose of this paper| views on the several pro- to cover this field completely.

So it will be in other | lines of industry. This vast number cay rest assured that the de- > ordinance is one requiring ' partment which is inaugurated today will cover | matters of deep interest to them. Nothing of importance to labor unions will be omitted. Nor is that all. The scope of this department will not be restricted to the local labor field, but will include reports of labor throughout the entire country. The mechanic is bound to play an important part in the upbuilding of our ecity, beth in a material and political way. and those of his union require the same considera- tion from a metropolitan newspaper that is shown financiers on the page devoted exclusively to com- mercial matters ¥ It is this want that The Call’s new department proposes to fill. Labor unionists henceforth can buy The Call with the assurance that in its columns they will find the news of the day that is of interest. exclusively to themselves. treated as fully and with space. the same fairness that is found in the other depart- | ments of the paper. A GOOD BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY. In every part of the burned district there is in- creasing activity in the clearing of lots and the preparing of ground for reconstruction. Soon tens of thousands of laborers and mechanies| will be at work and well on their way to- ward the same conditions which they enjoyed | before the fire. At any rate, they will no longer be dependent on assistance, nor will it, but will be looking for homes for and dependents. The houses which they oceupied before the fire have for the most part burned. South of Market street, for example, lived thousands of laborers and mechanies who, of the great multitude of breadwinners ruined by the disaster, will be the first to again become As soom as these are at work, they will not want temporary but permanent homes, nor will they want mere shacks. One of the best investments that can be made in this city at this time would be to meet the demand that must almost immediately grow out of the present situation by erecting eomfortable and well-built homes for the mechanie and laboring classes. Such houses will be in demand by renters before they can be com- pleted. The building should be undertaken on a strietly business basis, with all idea of charity and philanthropy eliminated. Such an eaterprise would net only be profitable alike to invester and renter, but assist materially in the upbuilding of the eit) What hastens the restoration of genuine home life for the workers hastens as nothing else can the restoration of San Francisco. they want themselves been Senators Spooner and La Follette have about come to a point of agreement. Each has announced that he has almost decided on vegetable diet. Whether the good work of reconciliation of views has been brought abeut by ‘‘The Juugle’’ or by | President Roesevelt’s report remains to be seen. A San Jose belle is reported to have eloped from her comfortable home by climbing out of a window. This is merely a matter of history repeating itself, | with all probability that there will be no let up to| the repetitions so long as parents insist on haying windows in their comfortable homes. Neither packers nor eattle raisers are willing to pay the cost of meat inspection. people having paid so long the price of non-inspec- | tion, the two interests hold that the cost of inspee- | tion should still be passed up to them. Congress has accepted Yosemite Valley from Cali- fornia and it is now part of the national park. But no great change in the valley is pereeptible. Califernia has a firm grip on the Traders’ Fire‘ Insurance Company, but just how much the State i gripping remains to be seen. ’ Chaneellor Day of Syracuse, N. Y., announced in sermon Sunday that this is an age of slander. So the beef trust complains. The insurance companies should recall that as far four-bit dollars. If anything can try the fortitude of the people;‘ of San Francisco, it is preventable dust elouds. Insurance Commissioner Wolf gives it as his opin- ion that honesty makes the best policy-holders. When one ins)u'es these days the policy-holder takes the risk and not the insurance company. Street-widening that,would crowd out business is not popular in San Francisco. The arrival of a huge cargo of cement yesterdar;y shows how determined all San Franeisco is to “‘stiek together.”” 2 < A California fruit grower has married & gypsy princess.

WATERHOUSE THE FAIRY'S GIFT. | Unto a very wise queen a son had |been born, and his fairy‘gedmother | had traveled a long way in a special ening of the little prince. “I am a good deal puzzled,” the fairy godmother remarked to the queen, | “concerning what gift to bestow en the |little pootsy-wootsy dear. Of course, | it he were a little older I should give either a pair of slippers or a necktie, { these being from time immemorial gen- {tle woman's gifts to her masculine friends, but he is too young to work | off anything of that sort'on him, with | the expectation of receiving a_diamond | ring or something of that kind in re- {turn; so I really feel that I am up lagainst it. Still, T have a choice as- | sortment of gifts from which to se- leet.” | “Let's hear the inventery of them,” the queen observed. | “Well, there's genius. How do you think he would like that?" “It involves hard work, doesn’t it?” “You bet it does, if it ever amounts to anvthing.” “He's a prince, you know, and—guess we'd pass that.” “There’s talent.” “Same objection applies, does it not?” “It sure does.” “Pass again.” “There’s beauty.” \ “He wouldn't be worth a whoop for anything else. Let's have a new deal.” “What do you say to wealth?” “His pa already owns a barrel of oil scraps of | meat and rope enough to make sausage for years to come.” | “Well, there is something else which | frequently takes the place of all that I { have mentioned; that is, it does so in | the popular estimatfon, but I cannot | give it to your popsy-wopsy unless you { can guess what it is.” | So the queen, who was a wise old dame, put on her best thinking-cap, | which had cost $750 in Paris, and pre- I parea to guess. | “You say that it takes the place of. | genius?” she inquired. 2 | “In the frequent estimation of the world, I said.” “And of talent?” “Same remark applies.” “And of good looks, and of wealth?” “Often and often.” A bright smile shene upon the coun- tenance of the queen. ! “I haven't,” she said, “been travellng | through this vale of tears thirty-six years"—she really was 56 years old— “What do you think it is?” the fairy godmother asked. “Oh, it is dead easy. There is only {one thing in the world that fills that sort of a bill.” “What is it?" “Plenty of ‘nerve’ and a shining ca- | pacity for butting in.” | “ItU's yours!” the fairy godmother ex- | ultantly remarked. “You've won out! | So the baby prince was given more | “nerve” than anyhody and a truly regal | capacity for butting in, and it fol- | lowed that, as he grew up, the whole world admitted thatl never before had | such a wonderful prince been known in history. o .

LERVE IT 70 HIN —CHICAGO JOURNAL. PEOPLE AND THINGS. E . BY LOUISE VEILLER. A bit of what is noted as interesting London society news is to the effect that Edna May and Pauline Chase are both engaged to be married to mil- lionaires. Edna May is to wed Jesse Lewisohn, who, we are told, will come into something like $2,000,000 as soon as he attains his majority and Pauline Chase is engaged to Nicholas Wood, reputedly the richest man in Birming- ham. © Edna May and Pauline Chase are actresses. To be more exact, I should say that both Edna May and Pauline Chase are beautiful voung women great deal of money on the stage. Both these young women be- gan their careers as chorus giris. Edna May first attracted public attention in the “Belle of New York.” The Salvation lassie’s bonnet was a perfect setting for her perfect, childlike face and downcast eyes. Astute Manager Frohman saw the wondrous possibilities of her wondrous beauty and took There the “Johnnies” did the rest. Pauline Chase was the original “Pink Pajama” girl. I have forgotten the name of the particular musical comedy in which the beautiful Chase reveled, but I remember distinctly what a fetching picture she was in her pink pajamas. Manager Frohman also saw the fetching picture, realized its market value and likewise took her to London. And now these girls are both to be married—married to millionaires. And these men whose hearts they have captured had probably been “picked out™ of any number of girls. Some of whom doubtless were quite as pretty as the actresses and many of whom were much more talented, certainly better educated and of superior birth and breeding. What is the matter? It is not only Edna May and Pauline Chase. Every now and then you read of some actress marrying some millionaire. Not that a millionaire is better than any other man, but there is a pleasing sound In the telling and it reads awfully well in the cold type of a news- paper annountement. And besides deep down in her heart every girl has a secret wish that when “he” comes. he will be a millionaire. And every mother and every chaperone hopes for the same thing, only they make no secret of it. Again I say what is the matter? . . . ‘Why do the women of the stage marry so much better than the stay at home girls? Because the actress knows how to make the best of those attractions which instinctively appeal to men. Showy and elegant gowns appeal te men. Coquetry appeals to men. Dainty, white hands unsoiled by toil appeal to men. A handsome figure appeals to men. A pretty face appeals to men. And the funniest thing about it all is, that man does not suspect his own taste. Nine hundred and ninety-nine men out of a thousand will tell you that modesty and domesticity are the virtues they most admire in women: 999 men out of a 'thousand will tell you that “beauty (in women) is but skin deep”; “that pretty is as pretty does.” and other similar bright and original thoughts; 999 men out of a thousand will tell you that a woman of good, sound common sense, with a kind heart and lots of affection, is the woman they most admire. And these same 999 men will turn round and marry pretty, senseless, selfish girls with nary a thought in their heads beyond their clothes and the latest style of dressing their hair. Lucky it is for the men that 999 women out of a theusand are not what they seem—before marriage. I do not know Whether it is nature or the superior wit of many women that makes them realize that once a man is married his ideas about women chapge. Perhaps it would be more exact to say. that his ideas about “the one” woman change. He wants fler to fit the description of the woman that the 999 said they admired. ried better than he knew himself, becomes her true self once again. they live happily ever afterward. But woe to the man who does not change his ideas after marriage or whose wife has not “put an antic disposition on.” It is they to the divorce courts. That is how I reason it all out. iy And Dr. Van der Ver may know all about porcelain teeth, but his wife and friends are positive that he knows nothing of the properties of porcelain— ‘when it is not fashioned into molars—and for that matter he knows nothing about cut glass, either. During the time of the fire when every one was trying to save what they valued most, Dr. Van der Ver gathered up all the elegant porcelain and magnificent cut glass in his home and arranged to take it to a place of safety. He packed it. carefully and put it in a pillow slip. Knowing how high- 1y his wife prized all her beautiful things, he decided no one should carry it away but he. * So he slung the pillow case with its precious contents over his shoulder and trudged n. The Van der Ver linen was exquisite and sheer. weigh heavily. Those are two things that the doctor should have known. But he did not. He had not gone many feet from his home when the bot- tom dropped out of the pillow case and the porcelain and cut glass—Oh, where were they? X Dr. Van der. Ver still loves fine porcelain and cut glass. Crockery deal- ers please take notice.
