did the work satisfactory and have
held their position ever since, Girls will
also be employed in the new works Of the
same firm. Four machines were started to-
day and fifty will be running in q few
weeks. The first floor will be used as q
packing room, where about fifty girls will
be employed. Girls will also manage the
machines, each OF which will turn out from
$1,000 to 10000 small nuts per day, Alto
gether from 200 to 300 girls will be employ

formed by them Ii not heavy, and they
can earn from 70 cents to 81 80 o day each.
The girls range in years from Is to 20, and
