WOMEN AS SHOPPERS.
They Are Responsible For the Dying Out
of Small Activities.

=" 5uhi Aetivities.
Work, as employment, writes Mrs
A. ID. 4. Whitney in The Ladies' Home
journal, would be more available, better
rewarded, II it could he done less in the
mass, made more possible TO the individ-
ual, be less monopolized in centers, forcing
both labor and custom to crowd TO few
engorging points know cooperation
and subdivision are great things; they en-
able people TO buy "a great deal more than
they really want and the consolidation Of
trade builds up big fortunes The question
Is, Are the right people benefited and in
the right ways The fault lies greatly with
purchasers and consumers. Women will
crowd places where there are a thousand
things they do not require for one that
they really do-a card of buttons or yard
of ribbon, very likely, which any little
modest haberdashery close by home might
supply; hence the dying out of local trade,
the cruel swallowing up of snail activities,
congested city streets and disgusting gen
eral jostle
"Why must every woman within go
miles Of large emporium make II her
Mecca for devout, painful, perpetual pill
grimage? Why must she travel to and fro,
push through wild throngs risk her life
and limb, be rudely hustled and huddled
in street cars, exhaust time and brains and
money, endeavoring to explore all the stock
in market, to choose the few things she
can put on or fill her house with? And
why need she do IL all the timer Why
could not some young person Of agility and
good taste represent IA whole suburban
neighborhood in all necessary reconnoit-
ering, patterning, selecting, making her
own living thereby? Why might she not
consult, modify. adapt, to the exceeding re-
lief, comfort, advantage Of her employers!
And why might not a suburban dealer be
encouraged to carry such a stock Of chosen
goods that far less retail shopping need be
done at the importing and trade centerss
The trouble is that women won't depute;
they will not be satisfied without ransack-
ing for themselves, and, also, IL is one OF
the devices, this going to town, for filling
up the time left empty by the supersedure
of the old home employments. But Is 1t a
real getting and having Is 1t life-worth
liyingi"
