Danger I'm Using Ice.

1t has been repeatedly pointed out that
ice is destroying the American race. The
ice water that is universally drunk by
Americans, who believe themselves TO be
temperate, chills the stomach, renders di-
gestion impossible and makes the consum-
er hopeless dyspeptic, even if 1t is not
responsibilities many persons believe 1t to
be-for that almost exclusively American
malady, Bright's disease Of the kidneys.
But there is another evil wrought by ice
in this country Of which no notice has yet
been taken. The practice of preserving
food on ice is rapidly demoraliziDg the
American palate and rendering us as ma
tion incapable of dining like civilized be-
ings.-New York Times.

Postal Money Orders.

On Monday. July 2, new schedule reg
ulsting postal money orders at the Post
office went into effect. Heretofore charge
of ten cents has been made for an order not
to exceed S15. By the new arrangement
the charge will be eight cents for all orders
not TO exceed $40. Heretofore the limit of
money orders has been $50, of which three
could be issued. This has now been chang
ed so that,he limit is s1o0, making 1t pos
sible to issue orders for $500 instead of
$50. The eightcent fee, it is claimed, is
two or three cents less than the actual cost
to the Government, but il makes up the
loss from the increased fees charged for
transmitting larger sums of money. As a
matter of fact, it costs the Government the
same to transmit an order for $40 as it does
one for 800, the clerical work being the
same; but by the larger fee on larger or
ders the loss on the smaller ones is made
up, the fee on an order for 800 being for
ty-five cents The fees upon international
money orders remained unchanged. The
question of increasing the maximum limit
of single international money order to
800 is to be considered by the Postoff1ce
officials, though additional legislation on
the part of Congress will be necessary to
carry out this object. Another modifica
ton in the laws relating to the money or
der system, which went into effect on the
2nd of July, touches the subject of money
order commissions. Hitherto the Post
master OF the Office issuing money orders
where his salary is under 5000 annually
has been allowed one-third of the fee!
for clerk hire, and the Postmaster of the
office paying the order, if his salary is un
der 5000, has been allowed one-fourth o
one per cent. of the amount paid out Il
cover the expenses Of clerk hire. Hereaf
ter no percentum commission will be al
lowed, but simply allow Postmasters il
such cases three and one-half cents on eacl
order issued, and the same amount on eacf
order paid. 1t has been found that the av
erage amount paid respectively to the Post
master Of the issuing and paying office
under the old system has been ITO, cent
so that by the new rule the Governmen
| will save on each transaction.

Room Up Stairs.

The prevalent idea that almost any girl
or woman who can use needle is prepar-
ed 70 go into dressmaker's or tailor's shop
and earn good wages is mistake. The
very common opinion that there is great
deal of competition in woman's work, house
work, sewing, teaching, is also mistake.
Try to hire anything done that must be done
well, and done to-day, this week, very soon,
and see how it is. Every woman who has
either muscle, skill in manual labor, or
ability TO use her brain, is engaged, and her
time promised weeks in advance. Every
good dressmaker is burdened with custom,
must work early and late and turn away
work that she cannot do because she can
not get competent seamstresses to execute
her orders.
In every shop more or less work done by
apprentices and by paid help, has to be,
with painful toll, ripped and sewed over
after business hours Few Of those who
offer themselves as seamstresses are quali-
fed to do satisfactory work, that win bear
close examination and be durable when
worn. Many are not willing to be told, or
willing TO give to their work that close at
tsntion, long apprenticeship and constant
study that will make them frst-class art-
SLAMS. There must be taste, fine artistic
sense, correct mechanical eye and the in
ventiye faculty well developed TO make
frst-class dress maker.
