TRICK OF THE TRADE.
Clever Dodge of an Employment
Agency TO Drum Up Rusincss.


Like every ether vocation Of men and
women, the employment agent possess
es device that is peculiar to his par
ticular calling that Is worthy of Ell.
rollment among the numerous tricks
of the trade" and although 1t smacks
Of deceit it no doubt serves it's purpose
well. The manner Of operating is this:
A woman of good address" is engaged
by the proprietor Of the employment
agency to answer advertisements for
female help. Each morning. when the
days business is begun, the proprietor
closely scans the want columns Of the
papers, selacting therefrom such adver-
tiSements as he or she may be able to
ill from tae list of girls on the appli-
cation book A list Is made out and
given to the before mentioned woman
Of good address," who Immediately
starts out ID secure the situations.
Upon application to the lady of the
house who has advertised for girl"
this woman of good address tells the
mistress that she has road the alver-
tiscment In the morning paper and
would like to get the place. Then fol
lows the usual catechism applicable
70 such cases, and the lady finds to
her great delight that she has at last
discovered just the girl for whom she
las been looking, oh, so long. There
isn't anything she can't do, and the
lady has really racked her brain to think
O.: things, too. She can make lovely
bread, cook any dish imaginable, does
not object to helping OUT on wash
day, has no gentlemen company, does
not want the parlor three nights a
week. and will not so home Sundays,
and above all she has such good adj
dress"
\ bargain is struck on the spot; the
new girl will come tomorrow and the
wages are reasonable. The lady llur-
ries down town and orders her adver-
tisement out Of the paper, turns away
a dozen or more likely looking girls
who apply for the place during the day,
and finally at night she goes to bed
and falls asleep without Il care upon
her mind. something she has not done
since the last girl gave her warn
ing.
"But, oh, what a difference in the
morping!'' When 8 o'clock comes in
stead of the lovely woman Of good
address" who was hired the day before
the hour brings two, maybe three, very
Indifferent specimens Of the genus hired,
who exclaim in chorus that they have
come. to get that job"
.Why, I don't want any help" ex-
clailus the lady of the house; 1--WE
engaged a girl" and she makes mo-
ton 70 close the door on the unwelcOme
callers.
"O}s, yes; we know" return the cho-
rus, but Miss - can't come. She's
sick; and she told us to come and get
the pl,ce because you wanted a girl.
So we've come"
The girls" are dismissed with but
little ceremony, yet not until the lady
has learned that they came from No.
- street, where an employment
agency is known to be, and after COM
pairing notes with few friends who
had similar experience the lady re-
solves to beware in the future Of the

A Boston Man Who Has Seen (, New
Motor at Work III that City.


(, for one, believe that we are on the
eve Of a great era of applicable force,
ana that the wasteful methods Of
steam and electricity will be relegatcd
to Il desuetude such as has overtaken
the stage-coach.
Tho grounds of my belief are based
net wholly on hearsay, but chiefly OH
curious experience. a few days ago
young man living in the vicinity of
Boston took me to his room and showed
ME apparatus which lie had himself
constructed with amazing ingenuity
and skill. The fundamental primum
mobile of this simple machine was mu-
sicai vibration. 1 have no right to de-
scribe the apparatus, but the force
produced in an incredibly brief inter-
val Of time by means of fiddle bow
was SO enormous that there seemed
to be no way Of measuring it, and the
chief difficulty III the way Of practical
application lay in the regulation Of
this force, which, if directed full upon
!, hnma, being, the inventor believed,
would Instantly vaporize his body. "A
single drop Of water confined In hol-
low steel tube was resolved by Il small
fraction Of this possible energy into II
motor capable OF running an engine il
properly applied.
1t is we'll known to all scientific men
that cubic foot OF atmospheric air
contains latent III one might use the
term or. in suspension, force enough
to kill a~regiment. Musical vibration
seems to set free portion Of this en-
ergy, aand it's resources are infinite. II
once they can be regulated, 1t will be
the simplcskpnd most inexpensive way
Of doing shT manual work, for 1t will
require no heat.
The young man who thought out this
wonderful series OF apparatus is self
made, not having had great advantages
of education; but for pure genius, I
think, whether as a practical inventor
or % q theoretical expeimentcr, he
will take high rank among the great of
