How He Lost a Square Meal Through

Young Snifkins had peer travelling
In hard luck. At least that is how he
expressed himself. lie had managed
10 exc out 4 bare living by making
sketches from time TO time for ali en-
tcrprising firm who Used his dra wings
to illustrate their extensive advertise
mcnts.
But with the close Of the Christmas
season poor Snifsins found his occura-
ton gone, the firm having notified him
that his services wcrr 10 longer re
quired.
Spifliins left his room oac morning

his brain when it suddenly occurred to
him that he was hungry. He consulted
his finances and tound that hc h,t ex-

thought. III have one square meal

why, Mr.. snifhins! How do yon DO?
I'm SO glad TO see you!'
Nr. Sniflzins looked I'D at the fair
creature who had broken in upcI hi,
r~everie. 1t was a pleasing vision. Ehe
was petite and pretty. and Iiore than
once had Snifkins felt mis- heart hutter
when in her presence.
Indeed, Miss Grace" he replied. ~
am right glad to sec you. But where
are you going?" Snifkins had forgot
ten all about his intended suicidc-and
his appetite.
I'm going TO florists" replied the
dear creature. land you must come with
me. I'm going to buy some lunches of
holly. We're going TO decorate our
Sunday school, you know. And"-with
a bewitching smilc-"you'll help me

OF course he would. lie would he

"Oh, certainly, with pleasure" re-
piled the young man. handing ont his
last ninety cents. "Would you like
any morc?"
This Is quite sufficient" she an
swcred. Thank goodness" mentally
circulated Mr.. Snifkins as he t-udgcd
along Ivy her side carrying the punches
Of holly. Then he remembered how
hungry he was, and wondered whether
he would ask him to dinner. As for
the young lady herself she rcgrled he-
companion with all sorts Of airy moth
ings as they walked along, and when
they had reached her home the episode
of Snifkin's eighty-sevcn cents had en-
tirely slipped her memory.
~ am so much Obliged, my dear Mr..
Snifkins," she exclaimed, relieving the
latter of his burden, a the servant, in
response to her ring had opened tho
door. DO come and see me some time.
/ would ask you in now, but VIC are
Just sbout to dine and we are going to

That was all. She had disappeared,
and poor, hungry Snifkins. with his

In Wages.

Mr.. Walter Besant is, as most
know full well, opposed to female suf-
fersgc, but il seems that he is equally
antagonistic 10 the progress of women
in the fields of labor. lie has lately
been interviewed on this subject by a
paper devoted to the interests Of
working women, and in unmistaka-
bic terms he expresses the conviction
that women arc bringing most trades
and professions "to the dogs" by en-
tering into competition with mcn.
l am naturally inclined TO the view
that women have a right 10 engage in
any work, always provided they are
competent 10 do so; but | agree with
Mr.. Besant so far rs to allow that
they have 10 right TO reduce wages
The influx of women into the labor
market has undoubtedly had this
effect. They are paid on much
lower Ea'e than men, and they are
consequently driving their brothers
and would-be husbands from the
field.
Now, if we are capable of doing
She work of which men have hitherto
held the monopoly, we deserve 10 be
paid az they have been paid. "a
laborer is worthy of his hire" and
there is no possible reason why a fe-
male clerk should be offered a lower
salary than 8 man. But as long a.
we accept halt terms without protest
we shall assuredly be offered them.
Ii we ask higher wages and are as
