INSANE DIET OF WORKING GIRLS.
Pie, Coffee, Pickles and Ice Water
Among the Features.


A close observer of working women
and their methods of living insists that
the majority die at or before 35, and
gives the conclusion that their man.
ner of life makes this inevitable. As
an illustration of methods, girl clerk
in the shoe department of one of the
immense modern establishments Is
cited. She sat at table with me yester-
day, and her repast consisted of two
glasses of Ice water, two chocolate
eclairs, and several pickles Think of
It! This to sustain her through long
afternoon of fitting shoes. She dresses
well! neither big sleeves nor smart
gowns pass her by. A homemade hat
minus feathers never rests upon her
head, but her worn, aenemic face
would suggest less feathers and more
nourishing food. The majority of
these women lunch upon piece of pie
and cup of coffee, or a rich spiced
pudding and u glass of ice water. DC.
casionally one will rush through an
order of fried oysters and half dozen
pickles. The wonder Is that they live
through the second year. From the
table, where they scarcely allow them.
selves time to swallow the several
mouthfuls ordered, they hurry out to
walk or shop, using thus forty of the
sixty minutes allowed for dinner. Then
back to the store to stand five hours in
high-heeled, uncomfortable shoes. their
pitifully attenuateu waists tightly
clasped In corsets and bands and their
trembling little stomachs containing
ice water and pie. Add to this the anx.
ieties naturally attending working
womans life, and Is il surprising that
their faces look harassed, nervous and
bloodless? This is the state of things
for large proportion of woman work.
ers, though working girls clubs are
doing much TO educate them out of 1t.
The young man clerk lives very diff
ferently. even when hardly better able
to afford it. Substantial food forms
the basis of his meal, with vegetables,
glass of milk, and probably pie, but
he takes 1t rather leisurely, and strolls
back to the store rested and refreshed.
He Is costumed In loose, comfortable
suit of lightweight wooden, his feet
resting upon, not over, the soles of
comfortable shoes; his circulation Is
unimpaired, and his body fairly well
nourished. What wonder that he keeps
his nerves well covered, that Ill TEN.
per finds less home upon his face, and
that we find him cheerily selling rib
bons long after the girl with whom lie
knocked elbows as a cash boy is for

where hundreds of working girls and
women go for the midday repast, sum
it up that one in twenty-five orders

other twenty-four leave the table more

when they sat down.-Baltimore Amer.

Health I'm Gunpowder Mills.

Apart from the danger of explosions,
which, by the way, are less frequent
than Is generally supposed, gunpowdcr
mills are exceedingly healthful places.
Such a thing as workman dying of
consumption Is unheard of, the expla.
nation being that the constant breath.
ing into the lungs OF dust Is beneficial
TO them. Even horses employed In gun.
powder mills are found to be fatter
and sleeker than their fellows from the
same stable, worked elsewhere. AS to
the death rate in powder mills, the
popular ideas are much exaggerated,
the average freight yard being vastly
more fatal than they. Statistics show
that from Che beginning of this cen.
tury, when the Dupont powder mills
were established, up to the present
year, there has been an average of
not quite one death year from acci.
dents or explosions.
AS among the employers, so among
the men Fear Is almost unknown, the
black-faced fellows shoveling the gun
powder about as II II were coal, and
walking through 1t knee-deep, as they
would through so much -four. They

ments; that is, $40 or $50 a month. And
yet they are exceedingly superstitlous
It not being uncommon for a man to
throw up his job because he has had
warning or his wife has dreamed of a
white horse. There are various dreams
understood by powder men to foretell
an accident or an explosion, and It is
very difiicult-often impossible-to get
n man who has had one Of these to go
near the works.

Missouri's Old Soldiers.

Missouri is a great country for sol

would appear that almost the entire
male population of sufficient age was
called on TO bear arms. Between the
Union and Confederate forces there
