Worth as Much as Male Work.
ers.
A woman writes to the New York
Sun: "In ninety-nin cases out OF q
hundred woman's work will always
be worth less than mans and will
command less pay.
Are these your words9 And will
you please explain them in some issue
OF your paper"
Perhaps the context from which
these words were clipped is the only
explanation needed. However. to
amplify little, one might say that,
given man and woman working side
by side in the same occupation, the
woman's work Is worth less to her en-
ployer than the mans and hence COM
mands smaller pay. Let us see II this
be not so.
Behind the counters in our stores we
have statesmen and saleswomen. l he
woman serves her customers as salts
factorily (if she chooses); she can
handle the laces and silks as deity
and make out her bills as accurately.
So far as that goes they are on an
equality. But suppose the merchant
who employs them both wants some
lifting done in moment Of emergency,
wants some heavy or disagreeable SER
vice rendered, who is called upon, the
man or the womanp The man can do
1t and does do it; the woman Is out
OF the question.
Take again the favorite case of the
other side-school teaching. So far as
the actual work OF instruction goes,
the average woman is quite as success
full as the average man, and even more
SO with children. But suppose a case
OF necessity discipline arises, who lie
the final authority, who enforces the
grim necessities OF the casep A man.
Because he has the physical strength
to do 1t. When q woman teacher con-
trolls a wayward. registering boy 1t Is
by higher force than he understands;
or rather, it is the resultant OF many
forces, his respect for a woman, his in
stinct OF obedience to authority, and
the domination of his will by hers.
But all these sometimes fail; then
comes the man with his sense OF physi.
cal mastery and says: do thus and
so or III make you and the boy
obeys.

DarII,s Punch Ronls.

Scientific inquirers are puzzled by
certain mysterious water-holes in the
ledge on the shore OF the Boothbay
Land Company's territory in Main.
They are on the eastern side OF Spruce
Point, close TO Lovers Walk" There
are three OF them, eight inches to a
foot in diameter, and about ten inches
deep They are bowl-shaped and per-
fectly circular. Locally they are as
cribed TO the Indians. They are sup
posed to have been used for pounding
corn, but a more inconvenient arrange
ment cannot be imagined. The sea
fills them twice a day. and fresh water
constantly trickles into them. In win
ter they are frozen up. Besides. the
Indians were too lazy to take such
pains. It seems, from the conformn-
tions OF the surrounding country, i'm
possible that there could ever have
been water course there. Their or
igin is a mystery. Two are perfect
