AsEo EMPLOYMENT Of
WOMEN.
INCREASED

The following taken from the report
of Commerce and Labor shows the
extent to which women are engaged
in breadwinning pursuits is increas.
ing: At the census of 1880 the mum.
Der Of women 16 years of age and
over reported as having a gainful oc.
cupation was 1858 in 1900 1t was
4,s9S,6S0, an increase OF 2,4T9,642, or
1858 per cent. In other words, the
number of women at work more than
doubled in this interval of twenty
years. OF course the increase was
in part the result of the growth of
population, But this accounts for not
nue. more than one-half of the total
Increase, and it is probable that there
were over a million women engaged
in gainful occupations in 1900 who
would not have taken up such occu.
patiOns il conditions and tenden-
cies had remained the same as
they were twenty years before. The
increasing participation of women in
industrial pursuits is indicated by the
increase shown in the percentages.
OF the women 16 years of age and
over 16 per cent we're at work in 1850,
10 per cent in 1890, and 20,e per cent
In 1900.
A comparison with the census of
1890 as regards the number of women
who are breadwinners in each marital
class reveals very noticeable in
crease in the employment of married
women. AS already pointed out, the
percentage of breadwinners among
married women is small as compared
with the corresponding percentage for
single, widowed, and divorced women;
but it increased from 4,6 In 1890 to
sc in 1900, which means that approxi.
mately 1 married woman in Is was
at work in 1900, as compared with 1
in % in 1890, or that the proportion
at work increased by almost one-forth.

What every town needs and needs
badly is moro boosters. This name,
while il is not very high-sounding and
possibly not suitable to the finer sen,
sibilities Of the so-cailed fastidious ele-
ment covers the ground and is sug-
gestiye of that class of people whip are
desirable. At least one town in the
State has an organized Booster Club, =
with bylaws and constitution, hay
ing for its object the betterment of
existing conditions and the improve
ment OF the town. Each member is
required to use every opportunity to
speak good word for the town and
to advertise the community on all oc-
casions, public and private.
While the organization is. a good
one, it is not at all necessary, for
every one can be boosters and ac-
complish results that will be satisfac-
tory. The public booster, the man
who makes long speeches and praises
things in high-soundng, rhetoric and
foghorn voice is all right and needs
more room, but the private booster
who never misses an opportunity to
ten of the advantages of his commun-
ity and keeps everlastingly at IT will
accomplish the most, The man who is
really a booster doesn't miss any OPP
portunity in calling down the knocker.
The knocker Is one of the worst
things that any town has to contend
with. He is worse than smallpox
or typhoid fever. These can be sue
cssfully fought by science and skill,
but the knocker gets in his work and
can't be touched in return. He talks
privately and in small crowds, inn
presses the stranger that the town is
no good, and does more harm than
dozen boosters can Offset. Every
body knows him. He is the fellow
who pays little or no taxes, works only
when it is absolutely necessary; his
wife often takes in washing, and he
is never satisfied with anything or
anybody, He knows it all. and every
man who has made a success is a
grand rascal in his eyes. That's the
kind of man who hurts the town,
and no law can't touch him.
The booster can be of inestimable
value to the town. and cheerful face
and good words for the community
sometimes goes a long way towards
the goal sought after Fort Pierce
doesn't need any organized Boosters

himself committee of one to boost

what is here or about anything I'm

cient, and to be booster doesn't |
necessarily mean a hot air specialist"

tell the plain truth and it will prove !

Whenever you meet a stranger and !

is growing and we have bright pros

Good Advice to the Small Merchant
Who Would Succeed.

The mail order question is one that
is of perennial Importance to nearly
every one of the smaller cities and viii
lagos in the land, although the danger
that these institutions were bound to
a~nnihilate the smaller stores does not
seem as imminent now as it did a
few years ago. For instance, since
The passage of the pure food law by
congress many, if not all of the mail
order people. have discontinued the
selling of groceries. 1t was plain in
this case that there was a consider
able amount of adulteration in the
goods sold or the mail order houses
would not have taken this step.
There are aspects Of the mail order
question which may we'll give hope to
the local dealer. The facts in the
case are that the catalogue houses
are not enjoying an unmitigated cinch,
for they are handicapped in many
ways in which the country merchant
is not, For example, the entire coun-
try press almost without exception is
closed to mail order advertising. Here
is a distinct advantage for the home
merchant, although sometimes he is
somewhat slow in taking advantage
of it. II he is fossilized and walking
around to pay funeral expenses in a
business way, fguratively speaking,
he will spring that ancient chestnut
that lit doesn't pay" to advertise. But
let the newspaper man take an ad
from a mail order house and place it
in the remotest corner of his paper,
and this same business mar will be
apt to object very strongly.
The mail order houses have ad-
vanced their business by advertising,
and have been badly handicapped by
having virtually only the magazines
and the catalogues to tell their story.
If the merchants of to-day expect to
cope with the mail order houses and
hold a fair share of the trade that
they ought to get, it means that they
will have to use printers ink and ad-
Y LADlLi6 opdSCs Il VI lLCl l1OlSy IlCy
will have to advertise intelligently
and in accordance with twentieth cen-
fury standards. Don't spring the
ancient gag about having been in
business so many years. The people
don't care a rap how long you have
been in business. They are interested
mainly in two things: First, what
goods have you got? Second, what do
they cost? Unless your advertising
deals with these questions, it will be
as sounding brass or tinkling cymbal.
The mail order houses have built up
trade by doing just these things, and
their glowing descriptions and prices
have done the businessman Antonio
(Tex.) Light.

Patronlzina Home People.

An exchange says that wal has been
declared on the great catalogue
houses of Chicago and other cities
by the 500 retail merchants of the
west. In one of the most striking eco
nomic movements this country has
ever known the small dealers are
fighting, they say, for their fves. The
mammoth institutions, employing
thousands of workers, doing their
business entirely through the medium
of their bulky catalogues, spending
no money in the communities whence
they derive annually millions of dol
lars of patronage, are forcing in
creasing numbers of home merchants
to the wall and so their opponents
claim, are making commercial
