fear that If Prince Bismsrck

Count Herbert spoke in derision of

Women IN stores and Shops

If the normal schools taught girls
book keeping, many of them could be-
come clerks and book-keepers instes d
of trying to get places as teachers,
and when they find no place open TO
them turning to the stores and over
crowding them, writes Ida Van Etten,
the President of the Working Wom-
EMS Society of New York, In an inte-
resting article on "Womeu in Stores
and Shops" in the August Ladies'
Home Journal. Girls have few OPP
portunities to prepare for positions
that are remuneratIve. The two or
three occupations which are consider
ed genteel for women are Overcrowd-
ed, while there is often demand
for girls as feather workers for exam
pie. II trades such as the making of
jewelry, surgical instruments,
aud similar manufactures.
taught here In technichal and
industrial schools like those of
Paris, girls would receive better
wages than they do now. Even now
girls of equal ability make more
in factories than In stores, ex-
cepting the few who have positions of
trust. Occupations like feather max
ing are not overcrowded. The only
trouble is in the dull season, when
there is lack of employment, but the
wages when there is work are suffi-
Gent to enable a girl to get along
even if she is idle q part of the time.
MANY provide for this by learning
two or three trades. On the whole,
the employment of women In mer-
camille pursuits is undesirable; 1t Is
poorly paid; it is not regulated by
law as it should be; and while 1t is
more genteel than at the
LIGHT trades, it Is less remunerative.
The long hours that are exscted OF
saIeswomen on Saturdays and st
holiday times are not accompanied by
any extra compensation.

What a Treasury Sweeper Did With
$4,000.
From the Chautauquan.

From the Chautauquan.
One of the first women who was as
signed work in the Treasury building
was a colored woman, Sophie Holmes
by name.
One night when Sophie was sweep
ing the refuse papers in her room she
found box OF green backs that had
been cut, counted and packed to
transfer to the vaults, and had been
accidentally overlooked. She did not
dare call the Waterman for fear he
would be tempted beyond resistance.
She thought of her four small child
rem at home alone, with no one to
give them their supper or put them
to bed, but the one duty that stared
her in the face was to protect that
money; she sat down upon the box
and quietly waited for the hours to
go by.
All o'clock in the morning she
heard the shutfling step of Gen. Spin
ner in the corridor, and heard MIN
open the door to his room. She quiet
ly slipped along the corridor knocked
at his door, and told him what she
had found. The General had the box
taken to his room, and sent Sophie
home in his carriage. The next morn
ing when she returned, she found the
General still keeping guard. That
night he sent for her and placed in
her hand her appointment papers,
given for honesty, aud for thirty
years she has earned and drawn her
$50 per month.
Fifty thousond dollars were in this
box. At another time she found
$50, 900, for which the testimony can
be seen over Gen. Spinner's own
hand writing.

Unfortunate Fowl.

Shanghai chickens ara born with an
inordinate pair of legs, which continue
to grow into regular dru.nsticks of the
longest dimensions. 1t is said that, al
though good layers, they are very fond
of dcvouring their own eggs. 4 farmer
who has tricl them and found them
wanting, gives the following account of
their peculiarities. The true name, he
says, is "Shank-high," and he pro-
nounces them rightly named.
They have no body at all, and when
the head is cut off the legs fall apart.
don't see how they can set on their eggs
my jackknife can set as well as they
can.
They don't sit on the rcost the same
as other chickens do; not bit of it.
Whenthey attempt to sit as other chick
ems do. they fall off backward.
They sit when they eat. know, fol
I've seen en- do it. And I've seen EN-
try to eat standing. but they couldn't
fetch it; for when they peck at a grain
of corn on the ground, they don't more'r
half reach it, but their heal hobs right
between their legs and makes 'cm turn
Il complete somerset.
I'd as soon see "A pair of tongs or com.
passes walking about my yard as These
shank-highs.
They crow, too, a long time before
day, when it isn't day. Probably be
cause their legs are SO long that the,
can see daylight long before a common
chicken can.

BE CAREFUL.

More dccp-seated colds, coughs and
similar maladics are caught in tho
spring, especially in wet weather such
rs we have been having, than at any
other time. When you do take cold
it is harder to be cured because in
almost all cases it attacks the kid
neys, disablcs them, and thus lays the
foundation for long train of evils.
When you are thus afflicted do not
dcludc yourself with the idea that
with the advent Of warm weather
you will soon be we'll. but get a bottle
of REDS GERMAN CurGn AND KID
SEY CURE and take it freely. DO
not b. afraid of it. 1t contains no
poison, and there is nothing in it that
would harm even the fccblcst, but it
is the best remedy in the world for
all maladics that affect the cXcrctCry
organs. Get it OF any dealer, but
don't allow him to give you an. thing
else in place of it.

Pigeons 0P War.

To one not previously acquainted
with the facts, the amount Of scientific
study that has been devoted to the birds
known as the homing pigeons must ap-
pear surprising. The true homing
pigeons are not identical with the ordin.
airy carrier pigeons, but arc almost all
descendants Of specially trained and
developed race of birds in Belgium,
where they are called passenger pigeons,
or traveller pigeons-les pigeons voy-
ageurs. These pigeons have been en-
rolled, SO to speak, in the armies of
Europe, OF which they form really i'm
portant members. 4 map recently pub
lished in La Nature shows the many
lines Of pigeon communication running
from the frontier fortresscs OF France,
Germany, Italy, Spain and Portugal to
the capitals of t ,Ose countries.
Pigeons are kept trained to fly along
these routes, and they could carry the
news of an invasion VIII IN all the tele-
graph lines and other ordinary means of
communication were cut off.
The ability of pigeon to find its way
home across many hundreds miles of
country is frequently ascribed to instinct,
but MIR. w. b. Tegetmcyer, writing on
this subject in Nature, Joints out that
this theory has been entirely disproved
by the pigeon races that have taken
place between Rome and Belgium The
distance is S00or 900 miles. The pigeons
used had been trained to fly from the
south Of France to Belgium, but about
half of the country lying between Rome
and Belgium was unfamiliar to them.
Hundreds were started from Rome, but
only very few got to their homes in
Belgium and they occupied from eleven
days to two weeks.
The explanation Of this is that the
lofty chain of the Alps cut off their view
of the country farther north than was
familiar to them, and so they were lost,
only those which flew along the coast
until they reached Southern France be-
ing able to find their way.
When fog and mist conceal the face
of the country the pigeons make very
slow progress. Under ordinary favor
able circumstances pigeons fly from
Southern France to Brussels, a distance
of about 800 miles, between sunrise an,
! early evening. Their average rate o
| flight varies from twenty scven TO forty
seven miles an hour. OF course the,
| can fly much faster with the wind thar
against it. They do not fly after
| O'Clock in the evening.
