MAIDsE[RvANTs ARE
Displaying The MEN
London's Wealthy People Turn to
Women as the Most Available
and Economical.
New York Herald Special Gable Service. Copy.
right, 1905, by the New York Herald.

London. Jan. 6.-Women are fast re-
placing men as servants in the houses
Of the wealthy, in the opinion of Miss
Nora Beresford, who has a large eli
~entele among the servants and employ
ers of the west end. Men servants
have had their day. Housemaids and
parlormaids are still required, but
| chefs, buffers and manservants gen.
orally are to an increasing extent be-
coming ~luxuries Of the past.
Nor is Miss Beresford's experience
exceptional. The old ideal "establish-
mentO no longer obtains in the mod
ern smart set, who prefer the irrespon'
sible life of flats and hotels 10 the
care of a large house of servants. ,
The proprietress Of one of the oldest
register offices in London, whose prin
cipal business is to provide recruits 70,
the servants halls Of the aristocracy
tells the same story of smaller estap
lishments.
ct have on my books numbers o:
m~enservants Of irreproachable charac
ter and a record of continuous SERVICE
she stated, "and tho they have occn
pied responsible positions in the house
of noblemen, they are ready to tax
anything that offers, knowing that tn
outlook for a manservant out of en-
ployment is about as bad as can be.
Entertaining in hotels and restar
rants has killed the prospects of tn
upper-class servant of a generation agt
Manservants in large houses invariabl
brought up their children to follow i
their own footsteps, and now the CIR
are going into the postohfices and tn
boys are being trained as chauffeurs.
Many society women, according t
reports from registry offices, engae
smart parlormaids to take the place
the old-time buffers, with the most e:
%cellent results. Keeping down expense
is one of the main reasons for tt
change, the sleeping accommodation fl
manservants providing a c~onsiderab
. tax on the small, town house, viii
a there is also~the question Of taxatit
which falls on those who employ ma
k servants. a

given to understand that if it were
ratified the, island need not look to the
