A CENSUS OFFICE NOTICE
CALLS ATTENTION TO FAILING
OF THE FAIR SEX.
Having No Place to Put Their Be-
lOngings, Find 1t Easy to
Lose Them.

Woman's disposition to misplace and lose
articles Of value is illustrated by notice
posted in one of the corridors of the census
office. The notice runs as follows:
1.-The following articles have been found,
and If properly identified in the presence
of the chief clerk, will be returned to the
owners:
-Four nose bottles, six handkerchiefs,
four silver bracelets. three hat pins. four
stick pins, top of button, two odd cuff but
TONS one shirt stud one velvet belt rib
bon, one purse. one Windsor tie. two rings.
three pairs Of hair buttons, one pair cuff
buttons, two beauty pins. one ST. Anthony
charm, two umbrellas, one kid glove, one
Isle glove, two knives"
1t will be seen by the above list that the
articles enumerated are mostly all arti-
Giles of woman's wear They were lost. no
doubt, through the habit most women have
of jumping up and letting fall whatever
happens to be in their lap The owners OF
the missing things are now trying to iden-
tify their property to the satisfaction Of
the chief clerk.
Some days ago there was diamond
ring lost by one of the ladies of the popu-
lation division, and that circumstance. to-
gether with the list quoted. is evidence
enough Of the carelessness of the majority
of women.
There is some talk OF getting a safe for
the of the ladies. When they arrive
in the morning they can place their jewelry
and other things under lock and key. When
they leave at night they can feel sure that
their belongings are where they can put
their hands on them.
In the population division there is large
force of ladies' Each one sits beside a
table punching cards with an electrical
apparatus. They have little space allotted
to them, and consequently must their
laps as resting places for everything they
possess.
When they arise to go anywhere, the
contents of their lap fall to the floor and
are often lost. In addition to the annoy
ance of losing things, the ladies OF the
population division have other things to
contend with. They packed into the
room occupied by the population division
like emigrants in the steerage of a second
class steamer. The work of punching Is a
very laborious one, and in order to get all
the work 1T can for its money, the govern
ment offers a prize Of So a month to wo-
men making a large average In their de-
sire to make the extra five the women
packed in this room often faint from the
heat and carried into the faint
