BEFORE a commission in Now York recently testimony was brought out showing that there are 1200,000 men and women in New York city who are willing to work, but who cannot obtain employment. Prom this side of the country comes the declaration that while apparent prosperity such as has never been experienced -in this quarter before seems now to be the lot of all the prices of everything being up real progress in the development of the section is handicapped. For instance, during tho past week a certain timber man has advertised for a crew of 100 men, and to date not one has applied. The Pacific & Eastern has not as 3Tct ever had all the laborers needed. The very prosperity of the northwest accounts for this condition. All the labor that presents itself is quickly absorbed. Railroad construction takes laborers in great gangs. Those who are in need of labor are forced to pay dearly for it. The laborer, if he be of the observant and intelligent type, discovers, moreover, that his labor, for which many are bidding high, is a greater asset when em ployed by himself than when placed at the disposal of others, and he loses no time in entering upon some inde pendent means of making a living. He frequently indeed becomes an employer himself. The story that the northwest has to tell in this respect differs only slightly from the' story of the middle west. The fact is, the whole country is looking and even clam oring for willing, competent labor. If labor lies unem ployed in New York city and other great centers of pop ulation it is because it is removed from the employment that eagerly awaits it. Very successful efforts are now being put forth with the view of bringing together the worker and the work. That these efforts are not always successful is due in part to the fact that the class of labor that is idle in the great cities is not the labor that is needed in the west, and in part to the other fact that large num bers of people in all great cities cling to occupations that are declining or to trades that are chronically ovcrsupplied with help. The 'Work of distributing labor should be continued. Governmental and private philanthropy can find a splen did opening here. There is plenty of work for all; unem ployment should be unknown in a country where there is so much to be done and so great a reward for the doing of it.

HI 1 There comes s. whisper o'er tho plain, A hint of. now and wondrous days; The ripple of the ripened grain Spreads, wave-like o'er once bar ren ways.

There floats, against the smiling sky, That smiled upon the campflre's glow. The smoke of cities, and on high, Tho clouds reflect the furnace glow.

Which Led Him to Express mn Opinion on Married Life. A young man from Kansas City was talking to a young woman from the same town whom be had met by acci dent at a matinee in New York. The ' young woman was married. The young man was not "You've beard that we're to have a new theater back home?' the woman asked to make conversation. "Oh, of course," the young man an swered. "I get all the news. I get a letter from Kansas City every day." The woman began to laugh. "So when you go back homo for that vacation you're going to bo married?" she mused. "How did you know that?" the man cried. "We both said we wouldn't telL And now she's" "You told me yourself a few seconds ago, everything but the date," she an swered. "You see, no matter how fond your brother may be of you or your uncles or aunts or your mother or fa ther, none of these would send yon a letter every day. There's only one person who writes a letter every day, and that's a girl who's engaged to bo married. For the rest of my sentence I added two and two." "You're right," the man mused. "Say, a married man must have to play close to the bases. It must bo like living with a mind reader." Bos ton Herald. A CHILD GENIUS. at compound of "carry" and "all," but a slight distortion of the French "carri ole," a diminutive car. The cbango was made in obedience to the uni versal tendency to assimilate the un known to the known, to make words mean something by associating them with others which they resemble U sound. Often there Is no etymological relation between the words associated, as when sparrowgrass Is made out of asparagus. This particular corruption was onco in such good colloquial use that Walker, the lexicographer, wrote, "Sparrowgrass is so general that as paragus bas an air of stiffness and pedantry." A Model. "Oh, no," declared tho younger one, "my husband never goes to clubs or any other places of amusement unless he can take me with him." "Dear me! What a splendid man! How long have you been married?"
