Factory or Service?

1t is a mans idea, and it is a good
one. He said: why do not some Of
the women who are interested in the
welfare of girls, personally go to see
those who are employed in the mo-
rocco shops and factoriesand tell them
how much better it would be for them
to go out to service rather than slave
in those shops?"
Here certainly is food for thought
and a passing glance at the girls who
work in these shops more than bear
out the pertinency of the mans ques-
ton. For the most they are pale, worn
and haggard in the extreme. In a
group Of a dozen or more. not one pair
of rosy cheeks We're to be seen. Their
hands and finger nails We're stained by
the leather. and even their skins seem
permeated by the odor of the stuffs
used in dressing the leather. They
work from o'clock in the morning un-
til o'clock at night. with a brief in
terval for lunch, and the majority OF
them stand all day long.
Compare these with the girls "at
service" Rosy checked, hearty and

SOME INTERESTING ODDITIES CONCERNING
THINGS AND PEOPLE
Paper Making ana the Eevptinn..

Paper Making and the Egyptians.
The art of paper making is almost
prehistoric. 1t is believed that the
Egyptians invented the first crude
process. This is shown in the name
itself. which is derived from the word
papyrus, a reed which grows In Egypt
and other warm countries.
The ancient Egyptians made their
primitive paper from this plant by tax
ing the smooth. fibrous layer between
the rough outer bark and the inner
flesh Of the reed. This they dried and
glued together in long rolls, which
served as a means to convey their
thoughts in hieroglyphics. This proc
ess has been so improved upon during
the succeeding ages that today the
most perfect paper can be made from
the meanest substances.

cnred nirds Live Longest.

Many people declalm against the
cruelty of keeping birds in cages. but
It is a well proved truth that cage birds
live about six times as long as a wild
bird, and the bird invariably becomes
so fond of its owner and its surround
ings that when the cage rs thrown open
1t will not fly away. 1t suffers so little
from solitude that if a prospective
mate is introduced it hits her on the
head at first for her impudence IN dar-
