The employment OF women in The
public service in every part Of tho civ
llizcd world Is no longer Il question Of
propricty. Trial has settled that
point. What remains to be considered
ls the measure Of their qualifications.
This is matter Of usual difficulty. AS
VIC learn from an Intelligent writer on
the subject, in Switzerland, the en-
ploymcnt Of women in the postal and
telegraph service succeeds admirably.
Before appointment there are nccesSa-
ry educational examinations, and III
qulrics arc also instituted as to the
health and character Of applicants.
Women who marry while holding an
Official position arc required to pay
/! for the services ofa substitute If they
absent themselves from their duties.
! LII Austria women arc employed in
some departments Of the postal and
telegraph service, but tho pay is mea-
! gre, and the restrictions US TO marriage
and condition in life are embarrassing.
In Italy aud Russia ladies arc employ
cd in the telegraph service without loss
to social prestige, Positions of this
kind are usually obtained in those
countries by means of political influ-
cncc. In Russia the applicants must
| 1e acquainted with 1our languages.
