Pair.
To the Editor Of The Chicago Tribune:
SIR: It seems very funny (when wo come to
think Of it) for woman to complain that she
*'can't get remuneratire price for work dono
by her" when she is go very
RELUCTANT TO PAY FAIR PRICE
when the has any done for herself. For in
stance: everybody knows that it is the continual
boast Of the sex that they can buy things cheap
er than man. I" He always pays what is asked, ~
she says; shut ice can get them evcr SO much
cheaper BY beating down." She likes to 1ake I'D
vantage Of dull market, but rals at man when ho
takes advantage in return. When women .pay
one another US high wages as men arc paid men
will pay them high wages too but not before.
I wish to ask one Of your lady-co1rcspond-
ents, who lately wrote about the har1ship Of
making pants at 1G cents pair, whether, if
woman volunteered to make that ladr's hus-
binds pants for 1G couts, she would offer rs !;
or II she over
7o1usr AniLr PAID MORE
for thing because she was told that the selIer
was hard up" and had to gell on that account.
II not, then how eau she complain when others
do the same?
One reason why females arc puid poore.
wages than males is, that married women try to
PLEASE THEIR HUSBANDS
too much. And it comes about in this way:
The husband, arriving homo from work, fluids
his vito all raaiant with smiles for
she has done something that always
plcases him reduced the household expenses.
In consideration Of her washerwonans being /.
widow with six children (she had husband when
first-ensagod). she has succeeded in convincing
her TINT it will be to their mutual advantage, to
havo her wages cut down 50 per cent; and, rs
she looks NJ into her consort's face for the e1-
pectant smile, she sees it there, slightly tinged
with shame, however; for, although he is
pleased think that his wife has done it for hia
sake, yet he1 feels somehow that there is some
thing mean about it. But this feeling is lost py
tho time he reaches his store next dag, and then
tho man thinks, "H my wife can. hire help for
SO much,
WIZ SHOULD rAT MORE ?"
And so it cones to pass that the woman that
sHcops his Office goes home at night calling him
mean and stingy for reducing her pay and, as
SHE grumbles, she drops in E poorer neigh
bor to tell her that she can't pay her 20 cents for
making those pants, Is ahe can get them done
elsewhere for 1G.. ". E. uAssELL~
