WHAT AN EMLPoYE HAS NOTICED.

One of the employees, who was evident
ly an undevelOped philosopher OF great in
sight, remarked 10 the reporter the other
dav, as he watched lady weigh herself,

"WOmen are curious creatures, and
you can see some little proof OF IL any day
by watching them at those scales. Some
get weighed before lunch and then after
lunch, when they reach the department in
the morning and when they leave II at
night. Perhaps thew carry some compare
tive table in their heads, you can't tell,
and no doubt their numerous weghlngs
have some meaning. don't think that
they object as rule 10 others knowing
what their weight is, but you know they
get in the habit Of being secrelive about
themselves. and this is kind Of mecbanI-
cal expression OF this habit. You know
sometimes they object to telling their age,
that is, | suppose That you know it, and
n you don't 1t will be very easy 20 ac-
quire an experimental knowledge OF that
fact. l never ODER TO weigh a lady unless
am requested 10 do so. This Is also a
matter OF experience with me. II you
are brought into association with women
you acquire considerable experience, or
rather your bump OF cautiousness is de-
velOped. see that you smile. PERHAPS
you think am wrong, or am unnecessa-
rily serious in my views on this subject.
