Paris is the city where the dressmalsing
trade fourishes as it does in no other
| spot in the world.
In 1850 the number of couturieres. as
! given in the "Annuaire du Commerce"
| the commercial directory of those days,
| was only 15S There were besides sixty
| seven shops for the sale of ready-made
feminine apparel but there were none,
| as there are to-day, which sold lingrie,
| or certain articles exclusively.
| In the "BOttin,' as the Paris directory
Is Familiarity known. of 1895, there are
1886 couturieres and 296 commercial houses
for the sale of ready-made garments, be-
| sides many establishments which manu-
faedtgre ana sell jgpons de, de desous or
working dressmakers in Paris is esti-
| mated at $1,000
In all France, according to M. Georges
Michel, the industry of manufacturing
the various articles of woman's dress is
in the hands Of 81, 4O6 male and 1436iS fe-
male owners of shops or factories. These
furnish employment to 700 sol persons of
whom over half million are women.
In addition to these there are 925, S55 per-
sons who make their living from indus
tries which are tributary to that of the
manufacture of feminine apparel The to-
tai value of the product of this labor
from so many hands is estimated at $780,
100000
Edward w. Box, in February Ladies'
Home Journal, considers editorially
which he enters emphatic and vigorous
protest against the mad rush of women
to seek employment in mercantile and
manufacturing establishments. The arti-
Gle is evidently inspired by the recent
public utterances of one of the largest
employers of women in Pennsylvania, who
in raising his voice against this evil as
serts that more wrong has been done to
thousands of girls who have gone into
al i
dreams Of" and urges young women who
| are seeking positions, to engage as do
mestics, where they are safe from dan
ger, where their surroundings would be
| elevating and congenial, and in a field
which greatly needs them Mr.. Box en-
phasizes these utterances and goes far
Their, saying: '"The fact cannot be dis
puted that no single factor in modern life
Is doing so much to degenerate our young
womRnhood as this mad race on the part
of girls, impelled by necessity or not TO
go into the business world. These may
sound like stroIfS words to the ears
of some, but to those who are really cog
} infant of the immensely of the evil results
that are being wrought, they will simply
fit the case and not go beyond it. In
and Industrial establishments stores and
| factories, the men into whose hands is
! given the power to employ and control
! girls are not nit, from a moral standpoint
: | to herd swine And yet thousands of our
/ young women are allowed to go from
, their homes to work under the influence
ated by them. And why? Simply be-
cause it is considered more respectable
! to be employed in an office, store or fac
tory than to be engaged in domestic
service The very word servant has a
, faint about II that the majority of young
: women dislike, and from which they fee.
But what else are they in business es-
! Establishments than servants, pure and SIM
I pie? There can be no difference but an
: imaginary one. That is ALL Far less
! leniency is shown in our business houses
/ to women employees than is shown, as
a rule, in our homes to domestic help
infinitely less" Mr.. Box further argues
: | that if the mistress would seek to ele-
waite domestic work, to treat servants with
r greater consideration, and to have the
interest and participation in household
! work, better, more intelligent and more
reliable women would be attracted to
the kitchens of our homes, and the de-
= structive rush OF young girls to work in
i stores. counting houses, and factories
; would be largely checked, and modern
! evil to great extent curtailed.
