The Massachusetts industrial census
has brought to light some interesting
facts about women who work in that

more women than men. Over half a
million women in Massachusetts earn
their own living and help to support
others: 1925 are in professions. OF
these, 9,53l are school and music
teachers and musicians, 1886 are authors
and literary persons" while there are
1874 women doctors; $4,000 work in fac
tories, shoe factories, cotton, wooden,
linen, carpet and paper mills, etc.
There are over $4,000 sewing women
and milliners. Compared with 1850,
women's wages in all kinds of work has
increased. Managers of dressmaking
establishments average Sl2. 10 per week;
women under them SIP per week.
Milliners get from 81 to $40 per week.

Origin OF tho MOrgue.

The word morgue had originally a
far different meanin g from that which it
now bears. In old dictionaries it is de-
fined a n surly, naughty look, being de-
rived from the word morguer, to bully,
to dare. 1t is also used (the VERDI to
express the idea of inspecting or view
ing i~ntently and closely any person Of
object. Madame de Sevigne, in a letter
to Madame de Grignan, uses it thus,
when she writes: "Guitaut writes me
from Saint Ange three leagues from
F~ontainebleau, where he has gone to
morguer the court" The morgue was
originally the second guichet or wicket
at the Grand Chatelet. When newly
arrested prisoners were marched in
there, the turkeys used to halt them in
front of this wicket in order that the
jailers might morguer them at their ease,
that is to say, look them over atten.
lively, and engrave their features in the
memory. 1t was there afterward, that
the corpses picked up on the pub
lie street, or dragged from the
Seine, were deposited for recog-
milton. Later, in 1904, there was
constructed upon the Qua du Marche-
Neuf, at the northeast angle of the Pont
Saint Michel, a square building specially
set apart for the exhibition of the I'M
known bodies. The opening of new
%boulevards has singularly modified that
quarter, and the morgue is to-day re-
moved to the extremityo the Cite, upon
that little island a long time since united
to the main land, and which was in for
mer days called LA Motto aux Pape.
lards" (The Hillock of the Hypoerites).
The exhibition.room consists Of two
divisions, separated by a glass partition
running from the floor to the ceiling, and
from II side Of the room tothe other,
through which partition the visitor sees
lying on the twelve dalles, or stone
forms, the dead bodies, sometimes par
italy clothed, again entirely naked save
n little strip of linen about the waist.
One of the most pathetic sights we ever
witnessed there was the corpse of a
little child not more than three years Of
age, seated in q "high.chair" just as
she was drawn from the river, her baby
rattle clutchcd still in her tiny fingers,
her little white cap on her head, and
wearing the customary short blouse Of

Blight OF Fruit Trees,

Professor 7. j. Burrill, of the Illinois
Industrial university, read a paper on
Anthrax OF Forest Trees" before the
Association for the Advancement of
Science, in which he gave the results Of
some experiments which he had made
with pear blight and fire blight of apple
trees. He considers them identical in
origin, and the ,esult o living organ
ism-a small fungus of the genus bacil-
lus, growing in the living bark. So
minute is this fungus that a very high
magnifying power of the microscope is
necessary to see it. The method of ex-
pertinent was to cut off small portions
of bark of diseased trees, and insert
them beneath the bark of healthy ones,
rs in the process of building, Sixty
three per cent. OF all the pear trees inoc-
ulated became diseased. OF pear trees
receiving virus from blighting apple
trees, seventy-three per cent. became
affected. When the process was re-
versed, a much smaller per cent. of trees
were inoculated. The most conspicuous
change ProiessorBurri findsin the tissue
OF the affected parts is the Almost total
disappearance OF starch from the cells.
This would lead one to think that the
disease is q fermentation caused by a
minute fungus, closely related to those
which induce fermentation under ordi-
nary circumstances.

Presence OF Mind.

John Wilkes, says an English paper,
was not a great general, but he might
have been one had his tastes led him into
military life. His presence of mind never
deserted him. He held many places Of
trust and responsibility. He was alder.
man, chamberlain of London, and men,
Der OF parliament, and no man was more
outspoken and daring in his criticisms
upon the government. Once upon a
time, when Wilkes had been more severe
than usual, and had reflected keenly upon
the king and his chief ministers in the
North BriiOn, a warrant was issued from
the court of kings bench for his appre-
hension, and for the apprehension also
of the poet Churchill, Wilkes bosom
friend and supporter. The chief culprit
knew that the warrant was out, and
that his friends name was in it, but he
had not thought to speak of it. The
kings messenger, with the warrant in
hand, found Wilkes in his chamber,
Churchill being at the time with him.
"Ah, Mr.. Wilkes, I must arrest you
in the kings namel"
"You have a warrant"
"Yes; here it is"
"And you've got Charles Churchill's
name down alsoP"
eyes"
Thompson, my dear fellow" said
Wilkes, turning to his companion, "do
run round to Churchill's rooms and tell
him what's coming. Tell him to be Of
for a few days and I'll have it all right
for him"
Churchill nodded to his friend and at
nee hurried out, the officer OF the law
little dreaming how the fish was slipping
from his net before his very eyes.

PIRM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
The Soil for Fruit Trees


There is a necessity for having the
land for fruit trees well drained. a
cool soil, especially for pears, is very
suitable, but no water must be allowed
to stagnate around the roots. Mrs.
Quin says that on stiff, tenacious clay
soils, with clay subsoils, undertaking
and deep blowing will be found essen
tial to rid the soil of stagnant water, in
order to get the conditions which will
promote a healthy and vigorous root
growth. But on good farming land,
such az will produce, with ordinary
treatment, $50 to 200 bushels of potatoes
to the acre, or sixty or seventy bushels
of shelled corn, it would be a useless
waste Of money to spend the amount
necessary TO underdrain the soil before
planting pears. A dry, billy place will
be better than a low one, with no good
drainage.

The Supreme Hour.


There comes an hour when al Lies loys and
pains
To our raised vision seem
But as the Pickering phantom that remains
OF some dead midnight dream
There comes an hour when earth reOedes 60
FAR,
Its wasted, wavering nay
Wanes to the ghostly pallor Of q star
Merged in the miIky-wsy.
Bet on the sharp, sheer summit.that divides
Immortal truth from mortal i~antisiej
We hear the moaning OF times mufied tides
In measureless distance die!
Past passions-loves, ambitions and despeirs
Across the expiring swell
Send thro' void space, like waits--oi Lethean
airs,
Vague voices OF farewell.
All, then from lies long-haunted dream We
part
Reused as a child newborn,
We feel the pulses Of the eternal heart
Throb thro' the eternal morn,

Uncle Fsek's Wisdom,
he who works and waits, wins.

he who works and waits, wins.
A thoroughly neat woman is never an
unchaste one.
If there were no listeners, there would
be no 1atterers.
Common sense is the gift of heaven;
enough of it is genius.
Good breeding is SO natural and easy
that it can be taken tor mere simple
ity.
Crime is the outgrowth OF vice; to
stop the former you must weed out the
latter.
Making apologies is a mean business
but the necessity of making them is still
meaner.
If contentment is happiness, it is bet
ter to be contenteG with q good deal
than a li.tle.
The ambitions and vanities of an old
man are too weak and ridiculous to be
dangerous.
The man who has no foolishness in
his nature probably has something
worse in place Of it.
There is a kind of honesty that is
nothing but fear, and q sort of patience
which is nothing but laziness.
We owe one-half of our success in this
world to some circumstance, and the
other half to taking the circumstance on
the wing.
The time spent in reading books that
do not make us think is worse than use
less. One good book, however, is food
for a lifetime.
A cunning man is often shrewd but
seldom wise. He sets SO many traps for
others that he generally gets into some
of them himself.
Ceremonies and bills Of fare seem to
necessary. Many people would not
know how TO act without the one nor
what to eat without the other.
Coquetry is more natural to woman
than prudery. A woman seldom out
lives all Of her coquetry, and never be-
comes a prude until she is obliged to-
