compels the mistress to take the maids
place in doing household work. The maid
may be the equal OF the mistress
in all the cardinal virtues, She
may be her superior in piety, in
temper and other qualities; but as she
engages to serve, she should recognize
serving as being her part. Nor is the
badge of service thing to be objected to,
if matters be viewed in the right light. any
more than the uniform of an officer or the
white cravat of cavalryman.
A disadvantage with housemaids, cooks,
nurses, ETC., is that there's no one to teach
them that "honor and shame from no con-
dition rise" The girl who finds that she
must get something to do will, in ninety
nine cases out of hundred, try to obtain a
situation in a store, partly because she
may have her evenings and Sundays to
herself, but chiefly because she has de-
rived the notion that domestic service is
humiliating. But whether clerking, type
writing, telegraphing, bookkeeping, it is
all work, differing in grade and compensa-
ton, but not more humble than any labor
conscientiously performed. When our fe-
males of the humber class come to recog
nize this, considerable progress will have
been made toward their comfort and con-
tentment

CHICKEN WINGS ON woMEN's HATS.

Our fashion correspondent in to days
letter informs US that the most stylish
feathers to be worn on the fall and winter
hats of the ladies will be those of the ordi-
nary barnyard fowl, such as ducks, turkeys
and chickens. And the most surprising
part of the news is that chicken wings are
to have the preference. The writer de-
scribes the manner of preparing the wings
SO as to dispense with the services of the
taxidermist.
Now this is something like" Hereto
fore the forests of southern countries were
searched for birds of gay plumage which
were killed solely for their feathers This
has always seemed a wanton slaughter.

women hesitated to wear magnificent

pies money was expended, and
when the people asked where the money
had gone, the answer came, "for improve
ments." Just where those improvements
are and of what they consist nobody con-
nected with the city hall has thought it
worth while to definitely point out. The
second and final year of the administration
is now drawing to a close, and we are in
formed that the expenditures this year
will be officially reported as exceeding d
million. Then, presumably, we will again
be told that the money has gone "for i'm
provements," and nobody will take the
trouble TO designate those improvements.
After the coupcilmen have reflected thus
far they will not have to search for an ex :
planatlon of why the people are so discon-
tented, why the taxpayers object to paying
money into the city treasury, why pretty
nearly every proposition advanced by the
council involving the expenditure of money
is antagonized SO generally.
Then the gentlemen may reflect a little
more and find consolation in the conscious
ness that in four months will come the
final ending Of their Office holding, when
they can have all time in which to look
back on an administration marked by reck-
lessness, incompetency and extravaganza
such as have seldom been witnessed in
American cities.

OUR FAIRS.

The annual fairs given under the direc-
ton of the territorial agricultural society
come too late in the year. They are held
the first week in October. We are all
aware why this time has been fixed upon
Then occurs the semi-annual conf erence
of the Mormon church, when people as
semble in this city from all parts of the ter
ritory and from the surrounding states and
territories. 1t is an accommodation to
them to attend the conference and visit the
fair at the same time, and it is also in the
interest of economy for the people and
money making for the fair. These
are the arguments in favor of
the October exhibition, and it is
conceded that they possess much force.
On the other hand there are forcible argu-
ments for holding the fairs month earlier.
In the early part of September we can rely
with a reasonable degree of confidence
upon having good weather, decidedly es-
sential thing for successful fair; whereas
it is the rule rather than the exception, to
have storms in October, and very disagree
alb lie storms at that. The usual confer
ence storm" seldom fails to put in an ap-
pearance. We count on it with greater
certainty than upon the equinocual. which
comes with such regularity throughout the
middle and eastern states. Then in Octo-
Der the best fruit, the best flowers and
many of the better vegetables and plants
have disappeared, so that the exhibitions in
these respects are rarely commendable and
not what can be called fairly representa-
tive. For the past two or three weeks bet
ter fruits of several varieties have been
common on the city fruit stands than will
be seen on the exhibition tables. Again.
the objection among stock breeders and
stock owners is general against bringing
their fine cattle, horses and pigs out so late
in the season when they are almost Ger
tain to be exposed to rain if not snow
which sometimes comes during fair week
Many times have we heard stockmen say
they dare not take the risk, the result being
that much fine stock which would other
wise be shown is not exhibited.
In short, the bigger and better
| the exhibit in all departments the more
valuable the fair is to the public, and our
exhibits are materially cut down in
quantity and quality by reason of coming
| too late in the fall. AS remarked, the only
advantage in holding the fair in October
instead of September is in securing larger
attendance, and since railways cover the
territory so generally and rates are made
so reasonable on occasions of this kind we
do not believe the attendance would be cut
down to any appreciable extent if these
annual exhibits were given at more
reasonable time. The matter is one which
the directors of the Deseret Agriculture
and Manufacturing society should consider
in it's various bearings before deciding upor
a date for the next exhibition.
We may here remark that the indication.
all point to a splendid and highly success
full fair this year. The exhibits promise Il
be numerous and they will show marked
Improvement during the year in severa
branches of industry.

A CLOSE BOX,

The HERALD has heretofore remarked
upon the suspicious circumstance that just
as the investigation into the keystone
bank crookedness was becoming interest
ing, threatening to involve several able
bodied Republican politicians and Office
holders in the scandal, the proceedings
were suddenly stopped on the ground that
the fund for making such inquiries was
exhausted and nothing more could be done
until Congress made..arother appropriation.
In putting out this story the department
officials assumed that the country's popu-
lation was made up of marines and people
in such close sympathy with the admin
istration that thev didn't want the facts in
the case to come out. 1t now begins to
look as if the matter were not to be per
mitted to go by default on the convenient
but brazen plea of lack of friends, put out
by the Washington authorities. The cit
izens committee of Philadelphia has taken
the case in hand and is raising money by
contribution to carry on the the inquiry.
and here comes the New York Erening
Post withi a tender of 'one-half of
any sum up to $1,000 needed to
complete said investigation, On con
dition that one of the investigators
shall be named by us, or by the president
of the New York clearing house, or by the
president of the New FORK chamber of
commerce" The Washington folks can
hardly refuse to proceed with the investi-
cation under these circumstances, without
confessing that they don't want the facts
to come out; and in that event the public
will not be slow to accept rumor as positive
proof. 1t is a close box into which the ad-
ministration IS being crowded.

SHOULD RousEMA1Ds WEAR oAPs2

A case has recently been decided in an
English court which has given rise to
great deal of discussion in the newspapers.
girl, employed as domestic, after
weeks time was asked to wear cap She
refused, and being dismissed sued for her
wages, which she recovered on the ground
that wearing cap was not part OF the bar
gain when she took service. The news
papers generally say the decision was
wrong, and that there was nothing un-
reasonable in the girl being required to
display an insignia of her occupation.
The whole trouble about cases like this
is that serving women, with of course hun
dreds of exceptions, are ashamed of being
known as having to work for living.
They want to be supposed to be differ
emit from what they are. Hence on their
days out they will often be seen
dressed as mistresses of homes,
and sometimes in their mistresses
dresses. Everything in their power to do
to conceal the fact that they labor for
wages they do without conjunction and
apparently without considering the ques-
ton of deceit. A. home they may be the
most industrious, the most modest of their
sex, performing their duties with the most
becoming humility; but somehow they can
not divest themselves of the idea that their
vocation is degrading and looked down
upon. OF course, in the minds of all sensi-
BILE people this is an unwarranted conolu-
sion No decent employment is either dis
graceful or debased. But it does not fol-

THEY MAY Reflect.

The Liberal gentlemen in the city coun-
Gil who are now expressing so keen an anxi-
ETY. to make public improvements and who
fear they cannot make much of showing,
owing to the lack Of money, might protta-
bly, devote a little time to reflection. They
should reflect that less than twenty months
ago, when they went into office, they found
the city prosperous, business was booming,
improvements were being made, and in the
city treasury there was the snug sum of
s270, 900 cold cash During the first year of

A SUBSTANTIAL structure is about to arise
in Fifth street, Philadelphia, built on pies.
1t is to be a parsonage. But whilst the
corner stone and foundation, we may say,
are to be constructed of pies. it is well to
add that Goldfish cakes and doughnuts will
also go into the edifce. Some of the active
workers in the congregation that is going

others do the selling. and fund is accumu-
