ON EASY TERMS AND LOW RATE OF IN
TEREST.
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1888-11-01

clerks sell, at a salary of S. per week.
After this, if N the meantime she has
not broken down and become helpless
invalid, she may be promoted to a
clerkship or a cashiers desk, where the
first years salary will be s. per week.
But this is one Of the seven leading
uptown houses and represents the shop
girls life at its very best. There is a
far different state of things in the other
stores, for cash girls along Fourteenth
street, in the majority of the Sixth
avenue stores and all through Grand
street and the rest of the city get but
the lower wages of from 81 to s., or
possibly S2 25.
Nine out of ten of these children
must hand their earnings to the mother
for the family use, and in many in
stances they form the chief part of the
income. Jessie's mother is widow,
with five children to support. One
boy and Jessie work as "cashes' and
bring in 81 a week between chem. The
mother cleans offices at SIS q month
and does what laundry work she can
get in the meantime. They live IN
the lower part of the city because in no
other respectable house can they get
rent SO cheap. But it is forty-eight
blocks from the store, distance of
nearly two and half miles for the two
children to walk. They ride once each
day, which leaves their mother So 10
out of the salary, which, with her own
earnings, gives her about S. so week
to pay rent and feed and clothe faml-
ly of six, What the hardships of such
life are cannot be known save by
those who 60 through its hourly drag
and toll and who feel in all its keenness
the heavy anxiety of a continual striv-
ing for bread.
Jessie's case is typical; that is to say,
there are hundreds, nay thousands, of
children like her employed in great big
stores and palaces of merchandise
throughout the city at wages which
would startle the political economist if
''listed" for him as samples of the
growth of American industry and pro-
gress. Here, again, you find the effect
of extraordinary, and one cannot help
saying evil immigration. Young Ameri-
can girls are crowded cut by the Jew
ish girls of the same classes as those
spoken of before. Jessie works for
small wages. They work for less, and,
moreover, they are deemed very valu-
able, because, as rule, they can talk
German as we'll as English and can at
tend to two classes Of customers.

I have been using Brandreth's Pills
for the last thirteen years, and though
I have had nine children, have never
had doctor in the house, except three
times, when We had an epidemic of
scarlet fever, which we soon banished
by vigorous use OF Brandreth's Pills.
l have used them for myself, two or
three night for month, for liver COM
plant, dyspepsia and constipation. In
diarrhGa, cramps, wind collie, indiges-
tion, one or two Brandreth's Pills fixed
the children at once. A box of pills is
all the medicine chest we require in the
house. We use them for rheumatism,
colds, catarrh, biliousness and impure
blood. They never have failed to cure
all the above complaints in very few
days. WILLIAM w. B. MILLER.

which opens the number. Then come
the "Two Little Confederates." The
late Mr.. E. P. Roe collected "Some
Stories about the California Lion,"
during his recent sojourn in Southern
California and these stories are related
in this number. Estelle Thomson re.
lates a charming story about "Knot.

story Of Dakota blizzard. There are
several articles about birds. "Dick's
Farm Hand" by Anna S. Reed, touches
upon the labor question. Richard NAL
colin Johnston continues his record OF
the oddities Of "Little Ike Templin" /;
and Thomas Stevens describes the haunts
and habits of the "Wild Pea.Fowls in
British India" Charles Barnard tells
an excellent story Of the cruise Of Cap
tain Eliza, in command OF the errant
canal-boat "Betsey Jane" "The Mis-.
chievous Knix," by Langdon f. Mitchell
is quaint sort Of fairy story, well Illus
trated by Birch.
A very practical article, valuable to all
ingenious boys, is "What to do with Old
Corks," by Charles G. Leland. In The
"Scent of Dogs" Theo. B. Wilson calls
attention to some OF the wonders per-
formed by hunting.dogs. "a School
Legend" refers to the short history OF
that well.known Mr.. "Peter Rice" who
is so fond of fish diet.

are unusually abundant, and the Depart
ments contain the customary amount OF
interesting information for the young
