Interesting Statistics OF Transportation In
the English Capital.

Some interesting deta Is Eayo appear
ed in "A report on the omnibus and tram
car service of London. The tramways,
which correspond to our car lines, are
all of A feet s y inches gauge except two
lines, which are only 3 feet inches.
There are in the city II distinct routes,
of which 50 are in use. The mileage OF
the worked lines is given as $40. The
average speed of London tram is b. AZ
miles per hour; that of "A London omni-
bus is 3. 5 miles per hour. The average
tram fare is 67-l00ths of penny (2
cents) per mile. The average omnibus
fare is 92-l00tbs of a penny per mile.
There are SO cars on the lines, which
among them run II, $50 single journeys
during their days work, which lasts on
the average IS hours and Al minutes.

A writer in a recent number OF The
Woman's Column says that the people
who want To let woman'S suffrage wait
until we get the temperance question
settled are like the man who was hur-
rying, in company with "A woman, TO
sick friend. The women fell down
and the man turned and called out to
her, For Gods sake, madam, don't
wait to get up but hurry right along!
This shoe does not tit the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union as its en-
emies will testify, for our organization
has been carrying on the suffrage work
these many years with an efficiency
which arouses the wrarh of cOnServa-
Ties. Rightly understood, we haYe no
quarrel with the above statement from
The Column or with the illustration.
But we have good and sufficient reason
that it is not rightly understood" by
some, but that through confusion of
IDEAS all temperance workers are some
times included in the category with the
over anxious man quoted. We know
woman's suffragists who make quite as
serious IA mistake IN the opposite eX-
IRENE. There are those who would
have all other reforms wait for suffrage.
To our minds. this is very like insisting
that "A child Sha make no attempt to
move around the room until it has
learned To walk. The objections to
this method are many and obvious;
chief among them being that the aver
age child would never learn to walk.
We do not expect final victory without
the ballot, but we are not sorry to have
agitated the temp, rance question until
total abstinence has become recognized
as the correct principle both morally
and scientifically. We see no cause to
regret that we have put compulsory
temperance instruction into the public
schools of all our land with the eXcep-
ton Of those in two states. Nor do we
consider the time wasted IN which we
have accomplished numberless other
practical reforms which have made the
temperance cause leap forward many
wears. If we have not waited to get
up" we have nevertheless succeeded in
crawling with so much effect that we
hated by the liquor dealers, on their
own statement, than even the voting
members of the Christian churches. In
addition to this, we have done some
most effectual training of our women,
fitting them for the various duties Of
citizenship, when all of its rights.
privileges and responsibilities shall de-
yOlve upon them. Last and greatest
we have accomplished what the leaders
of the suffrage associations have adj
mitted that they failed to accomplish
after years of strenuous efforts we
have "induced women, in large num-
bers To labor with enthusiasm for their
own emancipation. What women
would not do when their own "eman-
cipation,n considered in the abstract,
seemed to be the sole issue, they have
done when they saw in that emanci-
patton their only chance to protect
their homes and dear ones from the
licensed evils of society.

THE TRACER.
How He Follows Up Dishonest Purchaser
on the InstaIlment Plan.

on the iustallmtnt llan.
One Of the most important men IN the
employ Of firm that makes IA speciality
of selling goods on the installment plan
is the tracer. His duty, as his name
signifies, Is 10 find ont the whereabouts
of delinquent customers, who think TO
get out of the trouble Of future pay
ments by quietly moving away and neg
Letting to leave their new address.
Nothing could be more foolish than
such a course, for this is a feature of
the business that the installment houses
have reduced 10 "A science Ii is obvious
that III this city the great majority of
those who purchase goods on weekly
payments live in flats. This makes 1t "A
comparatively easy matter for the deal
ers 10 keep them under surveillance, for
one Of the first things the collector does
is to see the janitor and inform him
which families in the house have bought
goods on the installment plan. 1t pays
TO fee the janitOr for this service, for he
is in position TO know when any NOV
ing is about To take place, and the in
formation he gives the collector has
been the means of nipping IN the bud

paying furniture bill.
Sometimes, Of course, il happens that
"a dishonest family Will move away in
such a hurry that the janitor is unable
to inform the firm III time. In such an
event the tracer" is put on the case.
He sets about his work with the method
of the trained detective. He is familiar
with the name and address Of every fur
niture mover in the city, and his ac-
quaintance among the helpers Is so ex-
tensive that il is more than likely he
has IA personal friend among the men
who moved the family he is seeking.
With such advantages his task is not
nearly so hard as the unnitiated would
imagine, and there would be fewer at
tempts made TO beat the installment
dealers if 1t were better known how lit
