"CONCERNING SHOP WOMEN."

MR. EDIT. it, —Would you kindly allow me a brief
space to answer one or two of the assertions contained
in an article by " RA." author of " Oddment Papers"
which apveared under that title in your last. The
writer runs a most unjustifiable tilt on the grounds of
an expensive extaavagance in dress against the young
ladies who serve in .rur large drapers shops and whom
he has mixed op with the young women of work
mot.. t If " ICA" is a man I forgive him. He is
probably some poor blighted being who has found the
grapes sour ; but, I and the other young ladies feel
sure, and it is w, use your saying different, • that the
writer is a lady. There is do much misty spitefulness
in it. SO mach vinegar. We are convinced she's
cone old frump who never had an offer ilk her life.
We drewf elegantly and faultlessly " ILA." saes. Of
course we to, and ,nu employers like to see it, come-
piently we are supplied at trade intices ; but this in
married life is not kept up at the expense of home
comforts. hook around you and nee how many
shop/nonce are there not who are the best of wives;
have dear little families ant happy hnsbands and are
generally respectA,d. It, the men always turn out to
perfection, wee not the dandy bachelor of to-day
often prove the drunken wife beater of to-morrow? Am
to novels of curse we like them as a relaxation after
the care* .d the business Ind with n the coversations
in work rooms, theielass for whom I write have nothing
to ,10. " RA" probably writes from experience—H
c, a pretty one it has been. "My dear Fred" is
loubtlemly some goodey.goodey youth pinned to his
mother's apron string and "little Clara" I say Ii
better without him. With excuses for troubling you,
I sin, yours, &e.
A YorNn LADY BEHIND THE COUNTER.

we have received we do not publish. If the writers
will send their addresses we will direct them to a good

Ari EXTRAORDINARY elopement from Weldon has
isecurrel within the last few days. A tailor and draper
had ;wen noticed ta have formed id site a liabou with the
sister if his wife, who lived under the came roof Ea the
inarried pair. The wife seems to have blinded herself to
the fact till the other day, when she was made aequainted
with the result of these attentions to her sister. Her
hiediend left, as he said, with the intentions of going to
Blackpool on business, and strange to say his sister-in-law
disappeared on the same day. Nothing was heard of them
for a few days, when a letter was received with the post-
mark "Belfast" upon it, addressed to Ilia wife. In this
letter the runaway husband states that his wife need
never expect ty see hiin again on earth. though '' they
may fleet together, some day, in heaven ;" that be hopes
I she will manage the business as well as she can ; that she
will take etre of her two children; and that "he will take
care of her sister." The taking care of the business is no
easy matter, as the tailor should have suet his creditors •
few days after his sudden disappearance, and the shop is
now closed. Before leaving the town the runaway had
collected a number of bills, and purchased a geld watch
and chain, fur which he had not paid, and had borrowed
sums of inone, from various people, with all of which he
has "bolted.
