The business of carrying on restaurants
with an eve to female customers is probably
djstinctively American and reaches its eli
max in the great shopping districts OF New
York city Year by year these women's
restaurants become more numerous and
more expensively fitted up. They are even
extending down town for the use of business
women, and they all seem to make money.
There seems to be a considerable change,
too, in the quantity and quality of luncheon
now thought to be sufficient for women and
girls who earn their own living. Years age

Iuncheons used to be common and con

Delmonieo's reputation is far reaching, the
resort of epicures, millionaires and people
from the country who have come to do
New York. They have made up their minds
to spend money freely, and find Delmonico's
a fine place to do it in. By ordering all the
dishes that are out of season and plenty of
wine, one may spend twenty dollars there
for one meal from the menu, and eat no
more and fare little better than the man at
the next table who orders dishes in season
and pays three dollars. II New York is cos
mopolitan on large scale. so is Delmonico's
on a smaller one. Wide, indeed, is the range
of customers tastes, and there are nearly
always mole than two hundred dishes on the
menu required to satisfy all demands
When young man wishes particularly to
impress a young woman with his affiuence
or generosity he takes her to supper at Del
monico's after the theatre. If he has never
been there before, the more anxious be is to
display familiarity with the place, the more
he thinks every one is watching him, and the
more he stands in awe Of the solemn, dress
coated French waiter, and would sooner
poison himself than find fault with the
yiands or the service. If the woman feels at

The progress of sanitation in England dur
ing the fifty years of the queens reign has
been reviewed by Capt. Douglas Galton.
Affairs were in bad condition at the begin
ming of the history, in the absence of syste-
matte methods of counteracting the natural
accumulation and operation of propagating
conditions of disease. Parochial admins.
trations operated mischievously in degrading
the habitations of the working classes and
checking tendencies to improvement. The
window tax had been in operation $50 years,
to foster darkness and bar out ventilation.
Water supplies and the disposal of sewage
had hardly been thought of, except in the
larger towns.
The first complete registration of vital
statistics was made in 1883. A report of the
poor law commissioners on sanitary condi-
tions embodied many recommendations and
principles that have since been recognized in
legislation. 1t is now computed that by
means Of the measures that have been made
effective, the annual saving Of lives, over the
previously prevailing death rate, was, dur
ing 1S80-70, 4,064; during 1s70-S0, 1899,
and from 1880 to 1884, 81 SAT. The whole
death rate for England and Wales has been
reduced from 2207 10 1862 per LOCO; of
deaths by zymotic diseases, from 4.52 to q Il
per 1000. The Improvement in the last
point in urban districts does not, however,
appear to have kept pace with that in rural
dlstricts.-Popular Science Monthly.
