Interesting Statistics Of Women Who
Make Their Own Living

The census bureau has been making a
comprehensive inquiry as to the occu-
pationc In which women find q meals
OF livelihood and usefulness. The in
quiry included the comparative work and
wages of men, women and children. In
showing the conjugal condition Of the
women employees of the manufacturing
esta blishments of New Hampshire some
curious facts were ELECTED. Nearly one
fourth OF the workingwomen Of that
state are married. This is an unusually
large proportion. New York married
women who work form only one-six-
teenth of the whole. No other state,
New England or otherwise, makes such
showing. Why so many New Hamp-
shire husbands should require the aid Of
their wives in supporting the family is
not explained. Take the whole country
and over 13 per cent of the women en-
ployes are married.
Nearly $50 establishments were COW
cred by the government Investigations.
In ten years the male employees over IS
years of age have increased SO per cent,
and females 66 per cent, while of those
under 1S years the males have increased
80 per cent and the females so per cent.
extent are entering into places at the
expense of the men. The gain is shown in
all classes of occupations except domes-
tic and personal service, where the pro-
portion Of women dropped from AZ per
cent in 1870 to 3S per cent in 1880. and the
percentage of men SO employed rose in
the same period from 81 to 81. Whereas
Ii per cent of the country's children un-
der Is years old were working in 1870, and
l6 per cent in 1880, only per cent had
to neglect school on this account in 1890.
AS to earnings, there is well-developed
tendency to pay men well. simply be-
cause they are men, even though women
and children do the same work and are
exactly as efficient. This is the fact in
76 per cent of the cases Of difference in
pay. On the other hand, women get more
pay than men doing the same work in
16 per cent of the cases. But the differ
ence in pay Is wide. Men are overpaid
80 per cent, while women are overpaid
only 10 per cent.
Women have a greater adaptability
than men for the work in which they are
employed: they are more reliable, more
easily controlled, cheaper. more temper
ate, more easily procurable, neater, more
rapid, more industrious, more careful,
more polite, less liable to strike, and more
rapid to learn. But machinery is gradu-
ally dispAcing them in many industries,
as more automatic work is done by ma
chimes than formerly; often women who
are better adapted and cheaper are un-
reliable; their physical strength Is in
adequate for heavy work, and some in
dustries largely employing wome.. are
being forced out of business by the
changes in fashion, notably the fancy
plush box trade, which Is being super
seded by celluloid boxes-Chicago
