glass have lately been making an effort to
secure lower rates upon glass by polishing
one side OF cylinder and crown glass and
grinding the other. Polished glass pays a
duty of from /! cents per square foot up.
1t was hoped that this half-polished glass
could be brought in at 45 per cent. ad

general appraisers refused to allow this
classification, and the importers have ap-
pealed to the Secretary of the Treasury.

Our Girls,

A writer in an exchange offers the
following lorcible plea for the more
practical training OF girls: ut should
be the aim OF all to give the girls
just as broad business education as
the boys. 1t makes them capable of
taking care OF the family, if such re-
sponsibilities are placed upon them; it
broadens their ideas and makes them
nobler and better. Girls as rule.
are fully as clear headed as boys when
young, but il, as is the common
practice, the girls are brought up to
do nothing, TO think but little except
of dress and amusements, they fall far
behind the young man, at the age OF
twenty, in mental ability.
What is needed is, that at home
and at school they be taught that to
shine in social circles or to roll in
wealth is not the highest aim of wo-
manhood. But let them be taught TO
make home joyful and happy. and yet
be prepared, If necessary for life's Bit
terest struggles. The young woman
who is best equipped for LIES battles
is one who has been brought up to see
and know something of the shadows as
we'll as of the sunshine of everyday life;
who knows what poverty is, what work
is. and what true happiness is. No
| person, whether man or woman, can
be truly happy with nothing but idle
ness on hand, and girls should be edu-
Gated that work OF some kind Is neces-
sary to health and happiness. Give
girls LIES practical lessons-lessons
that once learned are never forgotten.
Let them understand thoroughly the
details of everyday life. the value of
all kinds of commodities used daily,
how to make a check, draft, note and
receipt Let them be told the truth
about themselves and about the world.
| They should know something about the
snsres and pitfalls that beset them.
Let them be thoroughly impressed with
the fact that on themselves. in large
degree depends the success OF the men
they marry. Let them know how to
cook. giving them a thorough course
in the kitchen. Let them begin where
their mothers left off. and we shall
have generation OF girls strong. hope
full, ambitious and self-reliant, that
will elevate the men. and make a
harder and more aggressive people.
and thousands OF firesides happier and

The odor was paralyzing. Now and
then we came upon big fine looking
stores and sometimes group OF inno-
cent looking factory girls, in smart
red Jerseys, eager for frolic. but
these were rare. Unless appearances
are deceptive the maiden tribute is still
paid in Whitechapel, for the stamp OF
sin and degradation seemed to be set
on half the women encountered. Hucll-
sters 'thronged the streets and shouted
their wares in stentorian tones. There
are Punch and Judy shows. places TO
try your skill in shooting, machines for
Initiating your lungs, and all sorts OF
places for the sale of penny gimcraks.

move along. now and then singing and
shouting. The women join in with
them and high above the shout is often

TO crack the Bank of England for n

And in Whitechapel they are particu-

Hour after hour we walk through the

she holds the cold form Of 3 months
