The following from Primers Ink deserves to be read by every business 1nan: Said bright woman the other day: No lady wishes to be looked upon as shopping fiend'; she does not care to go into store and have a merchant show her all his stock in or 6er to find out whether he keeps what she wishes to purchase. and whether the article is sold at a pr.ce she can af ford. It is much easier and pleasanter to look through the advertisements of paper than it is to bore clerks and waste her own time. Next to local news items, the advertisements are most read. A fuller set of advertise ments in our papers stating articles fer sale, with price, will keep much of the money that goes to larger citie' in circulation in our own town"

WRATH OF A LIVING WO-
 MAN SEEN AT SEA

One of the mystical happenings that is alleged to be carried on the records of the Society for Psychical Research in England is thus set down.
 A man named s. R. Wilmot was crossing the Atlantic on the steamer City of Limerick, when that ship was overtaken by storm lasting nine days.
 "Upon the night following the eighth day of the storm," he testifies, "the tempest moderated little, and for the first time since leaving port I enjoyed a refreshing sleep. Toward morning l dreamed that I saw ny wife, whom l had left at home, come to the door of my stateroom. At the door she seemed to discover that I was not the only occupant of the cabin, hesitated a lit tie, then advanced to my side, stopped and kissed me, and after gently cares sing me for a few moments quietly withdrew
 "Upon waking l was surprised to see William J. Tate, ny fellow passenger, whose berth was above mine, but not directly over flowing to the fact that our room was at the stern of the vessel-leaning upon his elbow and looking fixedly at me.
 "'You're 8 pretty fellow said he, to have a lady come and visit you in this way
 q pressed him for an explanation, which at first he declined to give, but at length he related what he had seen while lying wide awake in his berth. It exactly corresponded with my dream.
 "The day after landing I reached my wife, who had been for some time visiting hre parents. Almost her first question when we were alone together was: Did you receive a visit from me week ago Tuesday,
 My wife then told me that on ac- count of the severity of the weather she had been extremely anxious about me. On the same night on which the storm had just begun to abate she had lain awake for long time thinking of me, and about o'clock in the morn ing it seemed to her that she went out to seek me.
 Crossing the wide and stormy sea, she came at length to a low, black steamship, whose side she went up and then descended into the cabin. passed through 1t to the stern until she came to my stateroom.
 ""Tell me- said she, do they ever have staterooms like the one I saw, where the upper berths extend farther back than the under one? A man was in the upper berth looking right at me and fer a moment was afraid to go in, but soon went up to the side of yonr berth. bent dovr and kissed you cnd then went away"

Nursing is profession given over almost entirely to women, and for those who work in the contagious wards the dangers are such that many men would not care to face. Even the 2,61S girls who work in Detroit's to- bacco factories are risking their health in way little appreciated by the thou. sands of cigar consumers, for many of them are exposing themselves to the dangers of nicotine poisoning. Nor are the telephone openatnrs immune from danger, for in spite of the elaborate precautions taken by the company to guard their employees there have been cases where accidents have resulted to girls at switch boards.
 It is impossible for many reasons to obtain the number of accidents to wo- men who work among machinery, but it is notable fact that 84 per cent of the accidents occurred in places where the machinery vas not properly guard ed. This would go to prove that, with all the care taken by employers, wom- en who work around machinery are far from safe and that only by close attention to their work is the number of accidents kept down.

competitive life has called women into almost every vocation, hazardous work is no longer given to men alone, says the Detroit Tribune.
 Of the 27,39O girls who work for q living in Detroit by far the largest per centage are employed in factories, and in many of these factories there are de partments where women and girls are in danger of accident. Side by side with men in pin and can factories, in button works and stamping plants, girls from sixteen to twenty work on machines whose huge belts and revolv- ing rollers operate presses and dies that fall with pressure of from hun dreds to thousands of pounds. While serious accidents in these factories are not often reported, accidents involving the loss of fingers are not infrequent. There is, however, always tue danger for women who work around macA.h- cry of getting the hair or loose clothing caught in a wheel or roller.
 But there are other dangers besides those resulting from machinery. In the match factories, where women; are employed exclusively to do certain work, there is always danger of phos- phorus poisoning, and within the past year several serious cases have devel- oped. In the great laboratories of the
