sisters OF the North and West in seek
ing the means of earning n livelihood
In every honorable work within their
capacity, and however much the neCcs-
sity for such a state of things is re-
GREETED, it must be recognized all the
same.
II is not only unmanly. but It Is out
rageously unjust for men to complain
that women are driving them out Of
employment. There are 100000 heads
Of families In the United states. Some
Of these are widows, but the greatest
number are men. There are men
enough in the country TO support all
the women, If they would. The fact
is that they do not 1t is their Cwn
fault. If every man who pretends to
be n man were supporting woman,
as he should, there would be prot ably
100000 places i'm offices, stores. shops
and factories that are now occupied
by women workers left free to men,
and the women would be at home.
The worst feature in the entire sit
uatiOn is that the women are put off
with almost one half the wages given
to men for the Same service. This is
an outrage in many cases. When the
women acquire the power in business
which they have always been able e.
WELD in love they will correct the
evil of lower wages, too.

astounding quantities of water, pro-
cured by melting ice or snow. Some
times travellers carry pouches filled
with snow under their clothing, so that
it is melted by the heat from their
body. often a big block Of ice with
cavity cut into its center is placed in
the hut. They drop a stone into the
hole and on this put some burning moss
and blubber and the thirsty family
suck it up through hollow reindeer
bones.
EAT COOKED MEAT,
The statement has been made that
the Eskmos cook their food with the
lamp This is true, despite the popular
belief that they are voluntary eaters Of
raw flesh. Trustworthy explorers say
that these people only use uncooked
meat, and that frozen, when fuel is
very scarce or when ON long journeys,
every drop of oil needing TO be hoard
ed. But at home the Eskimo is diff
ferent man. There the pot is kept
hanging over the flame, and 1t is the
woman's especial duty to see that 1t
is always full of meat The lamp is
the woman's care rather than the

Lamps have been collected from ev-
cry tribe of the Eskimos. These give
great help to the men who study the
history of races. OF course they are
found to differ greatly in the wide eX-
panse from Greenland to Alaska, but
there Is the resemblance in every class
which links them inseparably, Lamps
have been found in Siberia and in
Scotland which show likeness TO those
Of the Eskimos, In all, much history
is learned from the Eskimo lamp.

The Civil Conflict Opened the Way
for Women in Business.
From the New Orleans Plcayune.

From the New Orleans PlCayune
One of the most interesting, as well
as important factors in the labor prob
lem today is the employment of wo-
men in the various departments Of
labor once reserved for men, and the
competition OF women with men in the
struggle for life
There were o, 100000 persons of both
sexes engaged in gainful pursuits of
all sorts in 1890. OF these. about A.
600, 600 were females and $4,000, 900
males. There were. according to the
same census, about 100000 families
in the United States. In 1860 there
were about 1O,ONO. 900 workers of both
sexes, and of these one twentieth, or
100000, were females, These were en-
gagged chiefly in clothing factories, cot
ton mills and in shoe binding, and they
were found almost wholly in the New
England states, whose men had gone
away to sea or to the new lands of
the west and left their women depen-
dent.
In the west and in the south a wo-
man seldom went away from the home
TO work, or, if so. they We're occupied
with household duties in families. AZ
ter the ciYil war the situation was
vastly changed. A million then lost
their lives, or were so disabled as 10
be incapacitated TO support themselves.
The South suffered more than any
other section, and many women were
left self-dependent IT was a new
thing to sec white women in the South
ern states start out to seek work in
avenues that had been previously
closed to women. They could not
take domestic service, because such
places were monopolized by the negroes,
who had been brought up in that sort
of work,
The posts Of teaching the young die
not afford places for all who were
forced to work. and thus the white
women of the South emulated their
