Attention is being directed in the
manufacturing centers of the country
to the possibilities to which the waste
products Of corn can be put. One OF
the latest discoveries is the manufac-
ture of paper and cloth from corn
husks. 1t is claimed that the linen
made from the long fibre OF husks
gives an excellent substitute for the
coarser grades of flax and hemp and is
superior to iute, gunny cloth and sim
liar products, while the shorter
fibres of the husks are most admirably
adapted for the manufacture of paper,
which is stronger than papers of like
weight made from linen or cotton
rags.

1t is urged, as IA special feature OF
the proposed corn exhibit at the Paris
exposition to be undertaken by the
New York produce exchange, that eff
forts be made to educate the people Of
Europe in the art of preparing corn

shipments of corn products, there is
amazing ignorance in foreign countries

edible purposes.

Commissioner Wright OF the nation
nj department OF labor has an interest
ing chapter on working women of
manufacturing centers in his last re-
port. From mass of statistics he
finds that the average age is but twen-
ty-two years, and of the whole num-
Der reported seventeen thousand five
hundred, more than one-half are en-
gagged in their first trial at self-sup-
port. As Il rule, the working women
are unmarried, supporting not only
themselves but giving their earnings
largely to the support of parents and
dependents at home Ten thousand of
the number under consideration
not only work at their daily occupa-
ton but assist in household duties at
home. More than two-thiris Of these
women live at home and are under
home influences. II Mr. Wright's
testimony can be depended upon it
must be confessed that tho life of the
average working is not SO
black as it has been painted.

In some parts of Africa youths are
purchased in the interior slave mar
kets, and are dealt with as
we deal with young sheep and
oxen which we turn into weathers and
bullocks-are deliberately uasexed so
that they may fatten quicker, and are
then fed upon yams and nourishing
food till they are ready to be killed
and eaten. The cessation OF the slave
