One of the most remarkable acct
dents on record occurred in Cincinnati
when a runaway horse jumped
through the rear entrance Of a street
car at Fourth and Main streets, injur-
ing half dozen panic-stricken pas
sengers. The platform of the car was
wrecked, the doorway was splintered
and broken glass was sent flying
through the car. When police arrived
they found the horse so tightly wedged
into the car that the wreckage had to
be cut away with axes before he could
be pulled out. The horse was so bad
ly injured he had to be shot.

CENSUS JOBS

Washington, Dec. G.-Appli-
cants are not tumbling madly
over each other i'm an effort TO
obtain Jobs as census enumer-
ators, and United States Census
Director Durand is considerably
pertrubed over the shortage of
men willing. The difficulty is
i'm the West and South. and
especially IN the critics. The
Job of census enumerat0rs will
receive So much per name or
per day, depending upon the
locality in which the work is
done, and averages about S6c
per enumerator for the entire
time required. In cities OF
over 5000 inhabitants, where
population IS cOngested end
counting is easy, the enumer
ator is required TO finish his
work in two weeks, but in
cities of less than five thousand
in size and country districts
one month is allowed.
Director Durand explains the
lack Of applicants for censu,
jobs on the theory that there j,
so much general prosperity in
the country that the govern
ment Jobs are not wanted. The
time for applicants for thes,
places ends January 25, anC

Just a Word to
The Business Girl

GIRLS desiring to enter upon busi-
- ness career must impress upon
their minds the fact that an employer
appreciates a woman who can seize an
idea and follow It out without asking a
thousand and one questions. They
must not think because they are girls
an employer should be more consider
ate toward them and their shortcom-
ings than he would be toward those Of
a man.
Then some girls are apt to be over
sensitive when they first enter an OF
fee or shop and consider that every
little thing we'll done is deserving Of
praise fran their employers. Perhaps
il NAV ~ but in five cases out Of six
the employer has no time to praise his
assistant. II a girl knows and believes
she is doing her best, even in the small
est details. she will have the reward Of
quiet conscience, and a kindly en-
plover will not forget a word Of en-
couracement every now and then.
girl should take every opportunity
of improving her talents. She should
NOT be afraid OF doing a little extra
work and think that she has more than
her share when her employer asks her

lost by it in the long run. Too many
