n member Of the series to which IT belongs,
but as a contribution to both current and per-
manent American literature. II is devoted to a
consideration Of the occupations OF women and
their compensation. and IT may confidently be
said to deal with that important subject in a
more comprehensive and authoritative manner
than ever was attempted before. It's sixscore
crowded with practical facts and hints and
instruction. furnished by writer's who also
workers in the various fields Of which they
write. The range OF occupations discussed Is
from sewing 10 singing. from farming to fine
arts. There is no work in which women are
engaging or are likely 10 engage that Is not
here considered by an expert. The value OF
such a work. handbook gudebook and ency-

New Bank Safe.

The new safe at the German Nat
ional Bank is one of peculiar construc-
tion and is probably as near burglar
and fire proof as any safe ever put up
in this or any other city. 1t is ar
ranged with a door that locks and un-
locks in the same way as the breach
of a thirteen-inch gun. 1t is an inno-
WAGON in the safe door line and should
be seen 10 be appreciated. The safe
is protected on all sides by an eighteen
inch brick wall, which makes it per-
fectly fire proof and the construction
of the safe is such that 1t is practical
ly burglar proof.
Beside the safe the Institution has
two vaults, one for day use and the
other for use during high water. The
Other equipments and furnishings of
the bank are the latest and best in
their line. The method of lighting the
room is new in this city, and is done
by means of frcnt window made up
of small panes of prism glass by
mefnosw heis ETAOIINN aSHRDLUU
means of which the light is refracted
and reflected to the back of the room.
Tie effect of this method of lighting
an otherwise dark room is simply
WCn,1arful.
