Women suppInnted by Men.

With carefully CLEANED statistics Ed
ward Box, in The Lcslies' Home Jour
nal, shows that the number Of women
in business is decreasing and will con-
tinue rapidly to grow less. "rhe tide
OF women rushing pellmell into all
kinds of business has been stemmed-
IN fact, 1t Is already recedlng and per-
ceptibly So" he contends. 1T has al
ready been asserted by female agita-
tors that the growing tendency to dis
miss women from various business po-
sitions is because of the opposition Of
men to the employment of women. On
the contrary, men were willing to have
women go into business pursuits, and
1t was men who opened positions TO
them.
Undoubtedly this was largely due to
the selfish business reason that wo-
men would work for lower wages than
men. But with the influx there neces-
sarily came into the business world a
great deal of incompetent female help.
For time incompetency was over
looked because of the lower wages.
Gradually, however, there came the
inevitable wedding process, temporari-
ly staid by the business depression of
the past few years. When prosperous
times came. 1t was different. and 1t is
very significant story which accu-
rate statistics tell that more women
have been discharged from business
positions during the past year of pros
perity. even taking into consideration
the larger number employed, than II
any previous year."

METALS IN THE ARTS.
Enormous Quantities of Gold md
silver Are Consumed.

Enormous Quantities of Gold md
silver Are Consumed.
II Is easy to ascertain how much gold
and silver are absorbed in the coinage
of the various nations, but the most
careful estimates as to the quantities
of these metals used in the arts and in
dustries are only approximate. Statis-
ticians In the treasury department OF
the French government recently under
took the considerable task Of compll-
ing the best information on this sub.
ject, and the figures they have reached
are probably as accurate as any that
have yet been published.
Most Of the gold used in the arts is
for ornamentation, though it is also
employed to a large extent for the
most practical purposes, as In den
tistry, 1t is doubtful IL even jewelry
consumes q larger quantity of gold
than some other ways in which it Is
used The consumption for gliding
alone Is large. The films of gold leaf
are thin, but enormous numbers Of
them are applied to considerable va
riety of manufactures, such as signs,
jewelry, books, frames, furniture, pot
terry, and other articles, and the aggre-
gate value of the gold thus used is
large. The consumption of gold for
gliding has considerably increased
since electro gliding came into vogue,
both because more gliding is done and
also because the new process wastes a
considerable quantity of the metal. Ac-
cording to the French figures, the
United States consumes In the arts
about 81 900 pounds of gold in year,
which amounts in value to $10,00O,000
in round numbers. France, however,
with her pre-eminent manufactures Of
iewelry and other articles of luxury
heads the list with an annual con-
sumption Of about 35,200 pounds n
year. Great Britain also surpasses the
United States with 34,100 pounds;
Germany consumes 29,040 pounds;
Switzerland, $4,000; Italy, 11,000; Rus
sia. 5000; Austria Hungary, 6,175, and
Belgium and Holland, 6.S20.
Perhaps one reason why the United
States consumes in the arts good deal
more silver than any other country Is
because photography here, with its
amateur branch. is far more extensive
ly In use than in any other land The
chief industrial uses Of silver are for
solid silver plate and silver plating,
mouptings for harnesses and other or
namentation and photography. The
silver industries In the United States
consume over 555.000 pounds year,
Germany and France about 100000
| pounds each, Russia 100000, and
Great Britain POS 00.-Exchauge.

Broadway sot ns busy M II seem,

As u matter Of fact half OF the men on
Broadway are not so terrihcally busy aud
important az thcy consider themselves.
They seem 20 be in great hurry, but
they d" not move yc;y fast, us nll know
who try to take the walk up town at a
brisk pace, and most of them wear that
intent, troubled expression of countc,
nance simply from imitation Of n habit
generated by the spirit Of the place. But
II gives qupkmg sensation to the poor
young man from the country who has
been walking ,he streets for weeks look.
