CUBAN CIGAR MAKERS.
While They Work Novels and News
papers are Read to Them.

A Cuban cigar factory Of the best
class is by no means a stupid place
to work. Not only does every cigar
maker have plenty Of hight and air,
"a Feather covered chair to sit on an
other privilege Of keeping on his hot
while he works but he is entertained
meanwhile with novels and :lewspa-
pars, song and discussion.
THE factory reader sits at the rear
Of the workrOom, enthroned upon an
elevated stand. He rs paid from the
private funds of the cigar makers
tho cost to each man ranging from
10 to Is cents a week.
This covers the cost Of the books,
novels and newspapers, as we'll as a
salary of $3.50 which is paid the pres
ident Of the reading committee to
make up for the time he is suppos-
cd to lose from his work while en-.
gagai in counting votes or makirF
the weekly c,"ection.
According /. the Cuba Review and
Bulletin these readers earn from $40
to TGn a week. rca In" for q period
Of tni.Ea u ."our hours Il day. AS a
rule ,'."h Factory has two readers
and newspapers are taken mp in the
morning and books or novels in
the af ''n),::
The selection Of the book or novel
! to br read is an Interesting feature.

election, each man voting for the book
he wants. The president CT the read

is Forthwith brought ai' placed in
its turn to be read.
The cigar maker is a very indie
pending workman. He has no fixed
hours, but can 90 aad come as he
plcases. If he remains away no
more than a reasonable time he can
