Women Clerks.

W.
Of late years the employment of
women clerks has greatly increased in
England as well sin France. and in
both countries it is generally agreed
that the system works satisfactorily
At the Bank of France there are now
100 female clerks, who receive three
francs a day to commence with, and
whose salary, after a year or two's ser
vice, rises TIC, 1900 francs, and at the
Paris offices of the credit foncier,
where also there is a large staff Of
women, the remuneration, beginning
at three and a half francs a day, rises
in some cases to as much as 1000
francs, or $500 a year. In both esta-
blishments the hours of attendance
are from nine to four on six days OF
the week, and the male and female
clerks sit in different rooms--the WON
en- being superintendent by officials of
their own sex, and thus enjoying the
greatest possible degree of privacy.

MINIS and Assnu OFFICES.

The United States government has
coinage minis in Philadelphia, San
Francisco, New Orleans and Carson
City, and a mint at Denver used at
present merely as an assay Office. This
last and the assay offices at Boise City,
Indian Territory, Helena, Montana
Territory, and Charlotte, N. G., are linn
tied by law to melting and assaying
gold and silver bullion and paying for
the same from treasury funds. There
is an assay office at New York for the
testing of foreign coin or bullion
bought by the government to be coined
or recoined. All the precious metal
purchased for mintage is computed at
the value. given it at these assay offices.
The single letters, O., s., c., ETC.,
stamped under the eagle on the Amer
lean coin, indicate the place where the

a humorous article III the Century
describes ''The 0ldestClub in Amer
tca," which in Philadelphia is known
as the Estate of schuylkill.s Once a
year it gives a dinner in its wooden
castle by the river, the dinner being
cooked and served by the members aeA
eording to ancient usages. A nearly
lost art of their kitchen is defined by
the writer, Robert Adams, Jr., a. fol-
lows: above and around the fireplace
hang the old-fashioned gridirons and
fr~ying-pans; the latter, which have
handles six feet long, are no longer in
use. These belong to the tossing
days. Before the fishing was destroy
ed, one or two members would sleep
at the Castle the night before Gala
Day, and would be up at day-break to
catch the early tide and return with
dozens of white perch for the days re-
past. These, being duly inspected and
cleaned by the Coroner, would be as
signed to some citizen to cook. TO in
sure a successful toss, great care was
used in placing the perch in the pan /;
the largest were placed at the outer
rim, the heads meeting where the ham
die joins the pam The next in size
succeeded, and 50 on until the pan was
full. When the fish were thoroughly
cooked on one side, the cook would an
nounce the fact, and everybody would
gather around to see the toss. Loos-

A Truly Strange Coincidence.

~"Speaking of strange condolences
said Dooflicker, 81 am reminded of a
thing that happened to me once |
was standing on the breakwater here
in Chicago n day in the summer of
1912, when n of my cuffs dropped
into the lake and a big fish came
up and swallowed it. l mourned a
good deal over it, because the sleeve
button in that cuff was made of gold
that l dug myself in California in
1S49. Well, time ran along and | for
got all about the sleeye-button. Soon
after that | had the trouble with my
hair, and had to doctor for that"
What trouble was that, paw"
asked Theophilus.
Why, didn't 1 ever tell you about
that. Well, you see 1 found that L
was losing my hair. 1t didn't come
out by the roots, but it seemed to be
broken off near my head, and yet, al
though 1 lost considerable every night,
there never was any loose hairs in the
bed in the morning. | finally got a
friend to sit up and watch me one
night, and in the morning he explained
the whole thing. I had bitten it off
and swallowed the hair.
"But. to get back to my first story.
One day about seven years after 1 lost
that cuff / was walking ON Manhattan
beach, arm in arm with Mr.. Selig-
man, when he picked up something
that vas buried in the sand, "Why,
that's. silver" said he. so it u.s. said
|, and SUR enough it was solid sill
yer. But what is further, it was the
indentical sleeye-button [ had lost
thirteen years before in Lake Michi-
gan. Now, what puzzles ME is to
know how that fish got way round to
Manhattan beach from Chicago"
There was a short silence which
Theophilus interrupted. What puz-
zles me, paw, is how the fish changed

A face may be woeiul.whit to cover q heart
that's aching;
And a face may be full of light over a heart
that's breaking I!
IT'S not the heaviest grief for which we wear
tie willow;
The tears bring slow relief which only wet

Hard may be burdens borne, though friends
would tain unbind them;
Harder are crosses worn where none save
God can find them.
For the loved who leave our side our souls
are well-nigh riven;
But ah for the graves we hide, have pity,

spoken sorrow;
Alas for The weary feet that may not rest

Caring for the Hair

A lively old lady, who died far adj
vanced in her eighties, and was proud
in extreme old age of her beautiful
dark hair, was accustomed when a
girl to hang up her night-cap every
morning filed with salt. This was
shaken out into a japanese dressing
box every night on retiring, but
enough salt remained clinging to the
cambria to secure, as she thought, the
remarkable preservation of her hair.
DR.. Holmes has sung or gossiped about
the widening part" which is m of

but until lately the prevailing fashions
Of dressing the hair did not make any
parting to show. Those who wear the
hair in true classic style, with the

may find some use in the following

ings in this vicinity on the days
mentioned. At Derby, Tuesday,

teachers in the county will be profited
by attending these meetings. The
meeting will be held in the academy
room of the school house. The fol-

give some idea of the work to be
done: The day meetings will be held
in the academy school room, COM
