Girl chimney sweeps are rather
common in St. Petersburg and Mos
cow. A guild or union Of them ex-
lists in both cities
The guild was founded by a widow
of chimney sweep who died, leaving
six daughters to be cared for. His
wife brought up the daughters to fol-
low the calling of their father, and
from this beginning the union grew
until now it has a membership of sew
eral hundred.
The rules of the union require that
no female sweep shall be less than Ia
or more than 35 years of age, but APP
prentices are admitted at the age of
8. The marriage of a member is
taken as equivalent to a resignation
from the union. All members are
required to sign the temperance pledge
and to be regular in attendance at
church.
In South Eastern Russia there is
community of seven villages in which
all the offices are held by girls and
women, and all the business is con-
Quoted by them and nearly all other
work is done by them.
In Valparaiso, Chile, they have
women conductors on the street cars;
and, taking the world over, it would
be hard to find any calling, employ
ment, business or profession which in
some places is not exercised or fol-
lowed by women.

..Under Southern skies.

Under Southern Skies" Lottie Blair
Parker's most successful play, which
Is now in it's third season in the East
ern cities, has been booked for tour
of the South next fall. The play
should appeal strongly to the theater-
going people of the South, as it is the
first purely Southern play that has
ever been written. Although there are
twenty three characters in the play,
there is no mention of the North or of
Northern people.
The Philadelphia North American
comments upon it thus plays like
Under Southern Skies deserve to sue
coed for several reasons; principally
may be mentioned the fact that it not
only Interestingly deals with everyday
men and women, but they are also
of our own people, and virtually of
our own time, the period of the drama
being a little after the Civil War.
Such consideration naturally gives
it a greater claim to regard especial
ly as it has utilized period, locality
and characters in a very artistic man.
ner and in all it's variety of scene and
situation there is not an unwholesome
or suggestive line. It's scenic pictures
of the bygone South are charming;
the old-fashioned dresses and holiday
diversion of the young folks and the
whole atmosphere that surrounds I'm
der Southern Skies make seeing 1t a
delightful pastime."

BEAUTY PAYS EVERY TIME.
Therefore Switzerland and the Med

"BOarding Houses" Now.

Therefore Switzerland and the Med
fterranean Lands Lands Are Big
"BOarding Houses" Now.
1t pays a country to be beautiful
and interesting. The constant stream
of tourists which pours itself into
Italy Egypt and the other countries
lying along the shores of the Mediter-
ranean means the spending of millions
of dollars annually among people who,
if deprived Of the profitable tourists
trade. would lose one of their chief de-
tendencies for livelihood.
In some sections whole communities
subsist almost entirely upon the mon
ey spent by travellers, a class of peo-
pie who are regarded by the natives
as wealthy and proper subjects for
fleeing"
shut off entirely the flow of tourists
to the countries bordering on the Med
iterranean and those nations would
soon be confronted with financial
crises.
But of all countries little Switzer-
land is the one which most frankly
makes national business of keeping
a boarding house.
Though not beautifully situated, like
her rivals in the business on the shin
ing shores of the ever blue Mediter-
ranean, Switzerland has her mountains
and lakes as attractions, and is adj
mirably suited as resort for the sum-
mer boarder. So she has 1000 hotels
and boarding houses, at which she en-
tertains annually $4,000 people during
the season, charging them an aggre-
gate board bill of $20,OO0,O0O for the
summer months.
These 1000 hotels and boarding
houses give employment to some 3d.
900 help" and the summer boarders
support by their patronage many
small, and some large, industries which
otherwise would not be able to exist,
and these industries in turn give en-
ployment to thousands who otherwise
would have to seek for work abroad.
