be the case even in the Lenten period.
AS we have advised frequently, neith-
er the wise king nor the eloquent
apostle was suitably equipped by ex-
perience and association for the guild
ing of womankind; one had too many
wives, the other had none; wherefore
the viewpoint Of each, though varying
widely from that of the other, was
prejudiced and untrustworthy. The
very petulance of Solomon's language
in expressing preference for life in a
corner of the housetop' rather than
with a brawling woman in wide

annoying experience still fresh in
mind, else he would not have dwelt

"YOUNG MEN, DON'T
GO TO AMERICA"
official Berlin Newspaper So
Advises Those Germans Hoping
For Work Here.
Keep away from America" +"

keep away from America"
\ Such is the warning which the off,
cial Berliner Correspondent gives
solemnly to young Germans thinking
of going to the United States in hope
of becoming clerks in business houses.
The newspaper says visit to Ameri-
ca during the unfavorable business
conditions there can be only bene-
fetal to those young men who have
money and who aim to extend their
knowledge and to increase their pro-
ficiency in their special branches Of
business. But those Berllners who
have little or no ready money are
strongly advised not to go to Ameri-
ca now.
The Corresponding points out that
the American law which forbids
workingmen whose services have been
contracted for abroad to enter the
country applies also to clerks. More
over, It is not customary in the
United States to engage clerks and
business assistants by correspondence.
So the German clerk or young busi-
ness man who goes to America takes
a long chance. Not only does the
supply of clerks and assistants great
ly exceed the demand. but most
American firms object to employing
foreigners. The mote of warning"
ends thus:
Generally speaking, the prospects
Of the clerk or business assistant are
not better than they are in Germany.
The average wages paid in America
are not higher than those paid in
Germany, considering the dearness of
living there. Only in the best posts
are the salaries relatively higher than
in Germany. The conditions of work
are more agreeable in many respects
than in Geramny, the working hours
are shorter, but nothing is known in
America of the many provisions Of
the German commercial code in the
interests of employees in business
houses, and that employees can be dis
missed in the United States at any
moment without notice. Berlin

CONTEMPLATING INSANITY.
A New Sort-Unfattering Estimate
of Hospital Corps.

Such is the lack of State or local
supervision over the hospitals for the
insane in South Carolina that it was
left to United States secret service
men to discover the fact that the
State Insane Asylum at Columbia
had counterfeiting plant running
at profitable speed. The perhaps
unique discovery was made that one
of the patients, man dangerously
If not hopelessly insane, is an expert
counterfeiter of silver coins. 1t is
hardly supposable that the head
authorities of the asylum would have
allowed him to ply his trade in the
institution, but the attendants in di-
rect charge of this man knew Of his
ability, and allowed him to exercise
it-for a reason. They got him the
molds and the material and set him
at work, circulating the product
themselves and making, presumably,
what there was In it.
Though this Is new direction for
display of the depravity of the class
of men employed in many hospitals
for the insane as attendants, this
discovery will give little surprise to
those who know the general char
acter of these men. They are lack
ing in principle. A man who will
wilfully abuse those helplessly and
often harmlessly insane will rob his
grandmother-or circulate counter
felt money, If he gets hold Of it.

A BUSY LITERARY WOMAN.

Literary work does not interfere
with the social activity of Mrs. Edith
Wharton nor with her cultivation Of
fads. Every year this brilliant wo-
man goes to Europe, and invariably
she returns with new hobby. This
year her eccentrieity runs to swans
and geese. When on the Continent,
a few months ago, she ran across a
variety of the goose family that
caught her fancy, and large flock
now paddles in the lagoons of the
Wharton estate at Lenox, Mass. Mrs.
Wharton's especial delight. however.
is her swan exhibit. Her aesthetic
nature was moved by the decorative
effect of tame swans on English es-
tates, and as a result she Is now
engaged In swan culture at Lenox.
Beside her flock Of geese and swans,
Mrs. Wharton is giving time to a
French reading room, where she
keeps many of the French periodicals
for the use of her friends. She has
arranged for lectures in French, and
her tendency in this direction of late
may portend novel Of Gallic fla
vor. The social whirl in Lenox
makes further demands upon Mrs.
Wharton's time. yet she finds 1t pos
sible to make quick progress on a
new novel. All of which shows what
literary woman can accomplish
when she busles herself about it.
