establishment was an ordinary board
Ing mouse, in which the firm had en-
gagged accommodations for the women.
Iney found themselves assigned to a
certain territory in the city and were
olrected to make house-to toulouse can
vass, see everybody living within that
region and get as many subscriptions
as they could. The woman manager
living in their house paid their board

commissions they made the amount
she had paid out for them. This SEEM

found that, work as they might, it was
impossible for them to earn enough

money advanced to them to come to
New York as well as their board. But
the unfortunate agent is not allowed
to depart until she pays all the ex-

York. She is allowed to 90 home. but
is compelled to leave her trunks or
whatever jewelry she has to compen-
safe the manager for the amount of her
outlay. There is, of course, no legal
ground on which this could be done.

is no lien on it for the advances, and
there is no understanding of that kind
One unfortunate who worked a month
with SO little success that she was dis

pawned her watch. She then discov-

leave after she had taken the watch
out of pawn and given it to the woman
manager as security. A party of four
who found themselves practically pris-
oners two weeks ago were lucky
enough to have some acquaintance
with a lawyer, who saw Immediately
the injustice of the claims made
against them and enabled them to 60
home and take their baggage with
them. One popularity of the way in
which the business is conducted is the
selection of the girls. For New York
only agents are engaged to come from
more or less remote northern or south
ern places, while those who were sent
to Boston and other eastern points are
selected only from the west One of
the rules of the business is to allow
none of the agents to work in the ter
ritory in which they have lived and
are known. They are all sent to
strange places.
