WOMEN AS COLLECTORS.
A New Avenue OF employment Opened to
the Weaker Sex.

A New Avenue OF Employment Opened to
the Weaker Sex.
The avenues OF employment for wom-
On are constantly increasing. Already
she has proved herself n good clerk, q
good book keeper and good typewriter,
and the latest is female collector. At
least dozen houses In Kansas City are
employing women In this capacity. and
their number seems to be constantly in
sseasing.
A woman may DO book-keeper or
typewriter and yet be the most feminine
creature imaginable, despite her bust
ness relations, but the female dunner
would seem to DO another kind of hnsi-
ness woman. and she brings forward
very promptly the question of how much
distinction must be made between .
woman and u man in the same business.
One thing is certain, one can not kick .
lady collector out of the office.
The female collectors are for the most
part young women, and, according to
their employers, they are as persistent
and as successful in their business as
men. Their mode of operation. how
ever. is somewhat peculiar. and they do

young men. Ha was pointed out to her,
and while the whole office watched her
she walked over to his desk and began q
conversation with him in 4 tone so low
that no one could hear. After talking
for few moments she turned to go. and,
raising her voice, said:
''If you don't come in and settle III be

When she was gone the young man
came in for an unmerciful guying, and
