A "Curious Chilean Custom That Makes Monday a Holiday. . .Monday is a dies non in Chile. People _-~have learned by long experience that they :can expect little from their servants and employees on that day. They call it `f`8an Lunes"-sobering up day. A man- . ntacturer goes to his shop Monday morn- fiing to nd that only a few of his hands have reported for duty. and even they * are in a seedy condition. In some estab- ._lishments in places where labor is plenty the hands who are absent on Monday get `no work during the'week. but thi rule ~ cannot be applied in most of the cities, ` because labor is so scarce that employers are `at the mercy of their help and are "compelled to tolerate their delinquencies.- ` "`I1A mndnnnnn Al :1 ht\I1un|mI\'r` nllnnyn ha: .

Never before in the history of the trade has there been so wide a margin between half fat and prime, ripe beeves as exists at present. The situation offers every inducement for feeders to .mal{ e their cattle fat, and on the other hand the wide range in value plainly points to the penalty that must be paid by those who disregard the law of supply and demand and persist in crowding half-ripe cattle on a market already over-supplied with that clllas Many of the unnished cattle marketed during the past few weelis would with sixty or-ninety. days longer feed have brought 7 50. to $500 more per` 100 pounds, which would be almost all clear profit, as the increase in: weight would nearly offset the com and labor. ` The importenoe of putting the right nish _on beef cattle inteued for mer- How many of us have a de- llclous hour with Dickens e'1`iny TIm'. .
