An Interesting Relic.

W. L. Williams has in his possession
the text of the prayers arranged by the
chaplain of the British ship Resolute,
which was abandoned in the Arctic seas
and brought to this harbor by Captain
Burlington, in 1856. The prayers are
printed on both sides Of a card seven by
five inches. They are headed, prayers
for the use of those engaged in the Arc
tic expedition, 1852" The three which
occur first have no special relation to the
expedition, one of thera being the Lords
prayer. Following these is prayer ''to
be used in the ice," and the next heading
is, 'This prayer to be used during the polar
night" and the whole concludes with III.

FALSE PRIDE IN WOMEN.


\ fair correspondent, for all women must
by natural gallantry be assumed to be fair
until ocular demonstration proves them
otherwise, takes exception to the GLOBES
assertion that it is false pride which keeps
the hundreds of women seeking employ
ment from accepting positions in domestic
service and Induces them to seek by prefer
ence poorly paid occupation as clerks. The
correspondent thinks that the difficulty lies
in the disagreeable surroundings which she
alleges exist in the average homes. and
says that lit is not false pride but an unwill
mgneSS to be considered a servant
and TO consider herself dependent, which
prevents the woman in search of a liveli-
hood from entering into domestic service.
The correspondent thus appears to beg the
question. She asserts exactly what the
GLOBE maintained. that it is the conscious
ness of being a servant or. i'll other words,
the possession of false pride that prevents
the acceptance of such employment. The
woman employed in the household is no
more servant than the woman employed
IN the store. and her work in the former posi-
ton has advantageous features which in the
latter it totally lacks. 1t would be too much
to expect even in this land of equality that
she should be on the same footing in the
household as members of the family, any
more than she should make one of her en-
plOyer'S family in the store. But there is
no necessity for her to feel any degradation
or lack of Self-reSpect simply because she is
in service. The dignity of labor exists in
all occupations. and is bound to command
respect when the lab0rer is in other respects
worthy of his or her hire. It is doubt
less true that the miStresSeS of many
households are Overbearing and eXacting.
In some cases they may even be the in
feTiOrs of their employees in culture,
character and refinement. But the
good mistresSeS. those who have a kindly
consideration for their dependents. SYM
pathetic interest in their welfare and appre
citation of their merits far outnumber those
with whom arrogance is second nature and
in whom the milk of human kindness has
long been soured. With mistreSses of the
former character no earnest. Self-respecting
girl need fear to engage herself, and there
are now in st. Paul hundreds of just such
women who would only be too glad to give
renumerative employment and comfortable
homes to young women of the right sort.

Of an ineXp!icable prejudice, the
higher rate of pay. The consdera-
ton which should actuate an en-
ployer should be neither sex or
prejudice, but capabilty alone. The slur-
ring intimation that girl with difficulty
maintains her reputation free from calumny
when serving behind the counter or in the
Office is unworthy of an American youth at
all gifted with the power of observation.
The experience of all employers has DEM
Onstrated that virtue and self-reSpect are
as apt TO be found clad in the calico gown
of the shop-girl as within the silk and
satin whose glimmer and show make bright
the fashionable drawing-r0om. The young
man who doesn't marry through base fear
that feminine competition is overcrowding
the ranks of his fellow workers is probably
affording some girl lucky escape.

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING.

The business world is every day becoln-
ing more and more impressed with the fact
that there is no kind of advertising so valu-
able in any line of business as newspaper
advertising. The American craze for
mammoth barn-dOor cOlOred posters of the
circus style of advertising has had its run.
WILLIAM j. FLORENCE is an actor whose
histrionic ability is not questioned He
is equally well known as a thrifty business
man who has accumulated large fortune.
And he is veteran in the theatrical bust
ness. Therefore it is an evidence of the
tendency of the times when man like
FLORENCE, whose business depends so
largely on advertising, publicly announces
that he has abandoned the circus method
of poster advertising, and will hereafter
depend principally on the newspapers. The
theater managers in Chicago and other
large cities are also adopting the same
method. They recognize the fact that the
American people are newspaper reading
people, and that they now look to the news
papers for information of every character.

THE NAME ELECTION.

This day marks a crisis in the political ca
reer of MIR. BLAINE. The election which
occurs in Maine to-day will very largely de-
termine his fate as presidential candidate
in 1883. If the Maine Republicans are
showed under to-day Mr.. BLAINE will be
buried with them. If they triumph it will
be Mr.. BLAINB's triumph and will give his
presidential boom an impetus that will carry
HIM into the Republican nomination two
years hence in spite of all opposition. Mr..
BLAINE has fully realized the situation and
has thrown himself into the fight with an
energy that he has never before exhibited
i'll a state election. The indications point
to a BLAINE victory in Maine to-day,
which will logically place him at the head
OF the Republican ticket in 1883.

WHY MEN DON'T MARRY

1t is very curious reason that young man
who has evidently read his GLOBE to good
advantage, advances as an explanation for
the ever increasing number of bachelors. He
ungallantly asserts that by entering into
competition with the men for employment,
and asserting her willingness to work at
less than the usual rate of compensation,
lovely woman has so intruded upon occupa-
lions ancently regarded as exclusively mas
culine, and has lowered the standard of
wages to such degree that the young men
either find themselves without occupation
or in position financially where marriage
is as far as the North pole. The unchival-
rous youth further alleges that woman's
proper sphere is TO stay at home and &C
quaint herself with household duties, that
she may become loving and capable wife.
instead of entering the field of labor in of
fees and shops, where she is apt to acquire a
doubtful reputation, and where once estab-
lished, she must relinquish all hope of mar
rage. The arguments of our somewhat
petulant young friend are very poorly
founded. He forgetS that it is not within
the power of all women to remain Quietly
in the enjoyment of comfortable home.
Many, too many, of them are compelled by
stern necessity to fight single handed the
battle for bread, and like the good, brave
girls they are, they set resolutely about it.
seeking whatever honest employment NAV
come to hand. If in the contest they enter
upon a field hitherto exclusively occupied
by men, and maintain footing there to
the latterS' disadvantage, so much the
more credit is due them for their persist
ence. There is no law of nature or of man
that gives the latter exclusive right to ex-
istence or prescribes the manner by which
it may be procured. The women have lust
as good right to make the fight as the
men. and if the latter are crowded to the
wall, it is state of things which merely
tells of their weakness. The world is
broad enough to give all living, and the
man who asserts that his is being taken from
him by the infusion of femme competition
in his chosen calling, is very apt not to be
deserving Of it. So far from the competi.
ton OF women lowering the wages scale. it
is notorious and disgraceful fact that
,somen are paid much less for the same
