An amendment to the. charter of Great
er New York, introduced In the Legislature
at Albany the other day, provides that
school teachers. may be removed from
their positions for "unbecoming conduct"
The object of the amendment, according
to it's sponsor, is to enable the school
board to remove a teacher if she marry,
the courts having held that under the
present charter such removal would be il
legal. It therefore appears that marriage
Is "unbecoming conduct" on the part Of
a teacher. ~

WOMEN WHO MAKE SUCCESS ~.
s z. AS COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS.
Spite Some Properly Qualified Women Have Done
Well for Themselves and Their Houses Sell.

erly made Minnea polls her home and who
now represents corset house with head
quarters in Chicago, receives salary OF
about $1,000 a year. She comes to Min
neapolis every month so to sell her
goods and is known among the buyers as
one Of the shrewdest of saleswomen. Miss
Charlotte s.Spinden represents a coat and
suit house. Miss McCue formerly trav-
eled for Washburl,, Crosby & Co, and was
one Of the few women selling flour. She
has recently abandoned breadstuffs for
soap.
Among the travelling saleswomen who
are well known to local buyers are Mrs.
Campbell and Mrs. Allen, who sell baking
powder; Miss Louise Ames, who has dry
goods line; Miss Augusta Asher. infants
wear; Miss Heintzman, and Miss Cons
nelly, corsets, and Miss Annis Burr Por-
ter, mouse traps.
Most of the travelling saleswomen rep
resent some branch of Womens wear. They
make Minneapolis just as the men do
and have their trunks of samples sent up
to the hotel. They visit the different
: stores and talk with the buyers and make
appointments for them to visit the hotel
and, see their goods. When the hour ar
rives they drop, into the store and take
the buyer over to see the room where
their. special line of coats Or underwear
or stock is arranged. It is understood that
buyer to her. samples, as otherwise he
might overlook the appointment in the
stress of business and the chance of a sale
be lost to the commercial traveller.
The. women who sell soap and flour
and salt have an easier method. They
are not bothered with large trunks of
samples and they can make their sales at
once, if the buyer Is in the humor. A man
can sometimes coax him into purchasing
disposition with a cigar or a drink, but
a woman has to depend on her wit. which
does not always answer the same pur-
pose.
One of the Minneapolis women for sew
eral years trained other saleswonen and
seldom travelled without one two with
her to observe her. methods and acquire
he:knack of selling. Some of these stu
dents were ready to travel by themselves
in few. months land others were not
capable in a year.
"When 1t takes twelve months for a
woman to learn a business she is seldom
a success at it." declared the sales
woman with decided nod of her head.
81 can tell in a. few weeks whether my
students can make good salary on the
road or whether they had better go back
to the counter, and I tell them frankly
what think. There is no use in vast
ing time in work for which one is not
fitted, and not every woman was created
for a commercial traveller any more than
we were all made to trim hats. Each
has her special gift, and / have found
that mine Is to sell on the road. I am
fortunate that my: territory is such that 1
