Donizetti and the Car.

Donizetti is to have his monument. 1t
will be set up in the little public square
Of Bergamo upon which looks the Con-
servatoire, the nursery of his genius
from the age Of s. The great composer,
in addition to his musical gifts, pos
sessed a phenomenal memory. In his
youth he applied to Mayr, the director Of
the theater at Bologna, for the score of
an opera that was then being played.
This request was refused, SO Donizetti
attended the performance twice, and
then wrote out the whole from overture
to finish. Another anecdote illustrates
the maestro's susceptibility and quick
wit. During his long stay at St Peters
burg he played by command before the
Czar Nicholas, who entered into con-
versation with a bystander in the
course of the piece. Donizetti at once
broke off the performance. why have
you stopped?" asked the Autocrat.
Sire" was the reply, when the Car
is speaking everybody else should be

verbatim, omitting only names and ad-
desses:

DOMESTIC SERVICE.
The Mad Rush of Girls to Business
Life Should be Checked.

The Mad Rush of Girls to Business
Life Should be Checked.
Edward w. Box in the Ladies' Home
Journal considers editorially When
Work Fits Woman" text under which
he enters emphatic and vigorous protest
against the mad rush Of women to seek
employment in mercantile and manu-
featuring establishments. The article
is evidently inspired by the recent pub
lie utterances of one Of the largest en-
pIoyers of women in Pennsylvania, who,
in raising his voice against this evil.
asserts that more wrong has been
done to thousands Of girls who have
gone into our commercial houses than
the world dreams off, and urges young
women who are seeking positions to
engage as domeStics where they are
safe from danger, where their surround
ings would be elevating and congenial,
and in field which greatly needs them.
Mr.. Box emphasizes these utterances,
and goes further, saying: "The fact
cannot be disputed that no single fac
tor in modern life is doing SO much to
degenerate our young womanhood as
has this mad race on the part of girls,
impelled by necessity or not, to go into
the business world. These may seem
like strong words to the ears of some,
but to those who are really cogniZant
Of the immensity Of the evil results that
are being wrought, they will simply fit
in the case and not GO beyond 1t. In
altogether too many Of our commercial
and industrial establishments, stores
and factories the men into whose hands
is given the power to employ and con-
troll girls are not fit, from a moral
standpoint, to herd swine. And yet
thousands Of young women are allowed
to go from their homes to work under
the influences of these men and in the
atmosphere vitiated by them. And
why? Simply because it is considered
to be more respectable to be employed
in an office, store or factory than to be
engaged in domestic service. The very
word Servant has taint about it that
the majority of young women dislike,
and from which they fee. But what
else are they in business establishments
than servants, pure and simple? 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 elevate do
mestic work, to treat servants with
greater consideration, and to have the
daughters of the family show some
active interest and participation in
household work, better, more intelligent
and more reliable women would be at
tracted to the kitchens of our homes,
and the destructive rush of young girls
to work in stores, counting houses and
factories would be largely checked, and
| modern evil to a great extent cur
tailed
