TIE population of Philadelphia according
to the census just taken is as fellows


And thus in Philadelphia, as in Boston
aud New York, we find more women than
men. As they never get much more than
one-third Of the salaries Of men, show do
they manage to live ~ has been asked. And
why is the excess found in these cities and
nowhere else The explanation of both ques.
tons is, they are given chance there to earn
living, and denied that right either BY CON
ventional laws or social ostracism almost
everywhere else. In most American towns
1t requires woman of more than ordinary
nerve TO even accept position as clerk in y
dry goods store. Aud when she does, il
is the signal for all her fashionable
acquaintance to ignore her. Because she
prefers TO work and make an honest living
forsooth,.." shells not as good" as the loafer
and sponger who eats the bread of idleness
She must.be dropped t.om the circle,' no
invited to tea, not solicited to make one Of
tea party whose standard of excellence /
guegea blythe standard Of Incidence, an,
who considers It disgrace to work. Youn
man, If you.would succeed in this world, de
cline invitations to that tea-party, bu
choose for your wife brave girl who is eve
ready to help you Toll and who has loftins,
Of mind sufficient to dismiss with con.emr
ne TOOL who would scoru her because Of b,
Industry. y
