WHERE CRIME IS UNKNOWN.
In the Governmental Salt Mines in Rou-
mania.

Salt mining constitutes one of the
staple industries Of Roumania. There are
four mines in all. The most peculiar
feature in connection with this industry
is that the mineral is mined in three Of
the principal mines by convicts con-
demned to life and lengthy sentences Of
penal servitude. The reason for this is
that crime in kOumania is practically I'LL
known, and there is no death penalty.
Under these circumstances the compul-
sorry mining of the convicts is beneficial
both to the government and the laborers
In the case Of the mine where convict
labor is not employed the quarrying is
performed by peasants, the work being
assisted as far as possible by the most
up-to-date mechanical time and labor
saving appliances for the employment Of
there are about 1000 convicts at work in
the three mines. .e><: .'r- > T.
7 The convicts are not provided with any
mechanical apparatus whatever, the
whole of the work being performed by
hand, each convict having to quarry
specific quantity Of salt daily. The mines

electric light. The main shaft termi-

all the working galleries radiate. The
mine contains a chapel and numerous
other apartments, all cut out of the salt

DECADENCE OF MODERN MANNERS.
Does Not Necessarily Denote Our In
creased Brutality.

1t is rather refreshing to find that
one has discovered at last that the deca-
dence in modern manners does not neces-
sarily denote our increased brutality or
absolute indifference to the feelings and
needs of other people. We have admit
ted to ourselves for some time past that
our manners have not that repose whicl,
should mark the caste of We're de We're,
that We are indeed frankly discourteous
to each other. and that men, no longer
particular how they act or what they say
in the presence Of women, do not even
observe the small courtesies of life where
the opposite sex are concernd. But with.
al, though our bearing toward each other
has become unpleasantly free and the
manner of both sexes so unrestrained as
to suggest the idea that We are raDid}y
losing, if, indeed, we have not already
lost, our sense Of refinement, we cannot
regard ourselves as in HOPELESS case. That
we should be lacking in politeness is a
fact to be deeply deplored. and that mat.
tiers should have come to such pass
that men no longer hesitate to let lady
wait on them, or to push her aside in a
crowd, or to smoke in her face unapolo.
still we cannot help feeling that although
we may show a ruder exterior now.
adays, both women and men are more
sincere than they were when they bowed
low to each other and adj
dressed the simplest remarks one to
another in the most formal phraseology.
We can at least say this Of ourselves
nowadays that we are free from the
coarseness which characterized the mel
and women of an age when outward
manners appear to have been so charm.
CT 1n ool,

thing can be done to contribute to hel
pleasure. In the same way we notice
that if we appear Individually rough and
even brutal to each other; if one duchess
we'll nigh tramples on another at .
crowded society function; if smartiy
dressed women do not hesitate to snatch
goods from each others hands at sales
and otherwise act vulgarly, yet never
was there time when women more
on every hand such ready sympathy was
shown in times of need and cases Of SUI:
fering, or when anything savoring OF
cruelty was so sternly discountenanced
So, though we may, unhappily, be less
polished and ceremonious, we are GER
tainly not less we'll hammered in the best
sense than our forebears. Indeed, il
must be admitted that we are more re-
fined, considerate and unselfsh and sin
cere. Is there any reason, however
why, in our anxiety to avoid shams, We
should cultivate unpleasant freedom and
unrestrained rudeness? - Lady's Pic
