With the approach Of warm weather the
subject OF the health OF tie girls employed
rs s1leswomen in the many stores through
out the country comes up afresh. There
are many mercantile firms which are very
considerate In the treatment Of their girls.
The atmosphere OF the store itself Is in no
way unhealthy in any section. Attention
has been given TO the ventilation and sani-
tary condition of every floor. Seats are
provided behind the counters for the girls
use when not employed in waiting on Gus
toners. They are treated kindly. and floor
walkers understand quite well that no
abuse on their part will be tolerated.
Courtesy is shown everywhere and expect
ed in return.
In fact, in Brooklyn there IS one store
where the head OF the firm tries 10 know

ing TO add everything in his power for
their comfort and health. New ones COM
ing into the store are spoken 10 pleasantly
and encouraged to feel that IL they do well
and deserve advancement or increase Of
pay, both will be granted.
Now and then there are stores whose i'm
pure air on entering is very disagreeable,
whose Easements are low, dark, stuffy
places, unfit for saleswomen and shoppers,
but these are not the rule. frequently
too, complaints are made from girls in diff
fercnt quarters that they are not expected
to sit down; that, while they know that a
law has been passed that sea . shall be pro-
vided for them, though one or two OF these
seats can be seen behind the counters. just
enough TO cover the law, they know all the
same that the unwritten law Of the store
is that they shall not sit down, and they
say they dare not complain for fear Of los
ing their places.
This makes the question of seats or no
seats one of the most common with which
the Working Women's Protection union
has to deal. or course the enforcement of
the law passed in 1881 lies with the factory
inspectors, but il gilis dare not complain

reason girls are urged to join some one of
the working girls clubs, where they can

In passing upon the issues involved
in the claim of Bresler now about to be
sent To the board of stste auditors by
Democratic legislature. the supreme
court, when the case of Bresler VS.. But
Ter was before il In 1886, held that the
state never became responsible to make
good the failure OF the bank to pay Its
debts: ''The only responsibility 1t as
sumed was TO receive and apply the
bonds deposited to pay bills certified by
the treasurer, as far as they would go
towards satisfying them; the balance
being personal debt against the bank
stockholders, concerning whose SOL
vency We know nothing. but whose liza
bility has become outlawed by five full
periods of limitation. There is no allie
CATION and no reason to believe that
any bills were ever issued by the treas
urer in excess Of the securities. The
claim can only rest on the idea that the
state is liable as an insurer against
thefts from its treasury vaults, or that
1t is liable for the possible negligence
of some of the treasury officials in not
guarding their documents and vouch-
ers, and stands like a private bailee
who Is supposed to have been negligent
enough TO be responsible. The facts,
so far rs laid before us. indicate that
the vault was robbed, as far as they in
dicate anything. We do not propose,
on this motion, to consider whether
such liabilities are recognized by gov
ernments at all, or, if so, under what
circumstances. No private person or
corporation could be sued after such a
lapse of time, and it is not presumable
that testimony now exists which could
explain all the facts, so as to lead to a
safe judgment upon them. We GER
tainly cannot intermeddle, We should
decline the request to make any sug-
gestion to the board of auditors. We
cannot undertake to say or to deny
that they have authority to consider 1t.
Relator must determine for himself
whether he will seek their action"
Still the public plunderlng squawbucks

The explanation is that two of the

Mans Two Regulations.

am always interested in what may
be called the two regulations which each
man has; one is his public name, the
other his personal or private eminencs;
the one is the distinction which he has
among people, the other the regard paid
to him by his own immediate set or fol-
lowing. Archdeacon Farrar has a great
reputation among the ordinary nSsple of
America and Great Britain, but scholars
look upon him with much of suspicion
as an accurate and profound exegste.
Bishop Westcott, however, has small
reputation among the people. Probably
not one in twenty of those who read this

respect in which he is held by scholars is
