Famine of Servants.

New York is rapidly approaching a
famine OF domestic servants. En-
ployment agencies find it impossible
to meet the demand for them. 1t is
not so much because women who are
willing to work as servants are scarce
as it is that so many of them are
incompetent Every employment
agency in New York has more appli-
cations for work from would-be SER
wants than it can fill, but there is not
an agency in the city that would not
place 100 per cent more servants We're
the latter competent to fill the places.
One class of employment agencies has
ceased to exist since last year. These
are the agencies which got employ
ment for cattle attendants on the
transatlantic steamships. Young col
lege men who wanted to work their
way to Europe often went as cattle
tenders through these agencies. Since
October last no American livestock
has been shipped abroad, and conse-
quently the occupation of the cattle.
men is gone. The high price of beet
in the United States and the fact tha
this country has lost the European
cattle export trade to Argentina, ex,
plain the changed conditions.

Protests Against Dances.

Another protest against the modern
wriggling dances is just making itself
heard. Curtly enough. however, il
does not come from reformers or per-
sons whose sense of decency is offend
ed by the terpischorean acrobatics.
Instead it emanates from the manu-
facturers of playing cards, for so gen.
orally have the Tango and the Tur-
key Trot succeeded card playing that
last year showed very serious fall
ing off in the card manufacturing
business. AS the new dances are most
popular with the persons who former
ly were card devotees the case against
such dances seems to be a clear one.
What the falling off actually amounts
To is shown by the fact that during
the last fiscal year there was a de-
crease of 77S,2S1 packs of cards man
ufactured, or nearly forty per cent
Whether or not this is to be looked
upon as another crime to be laid at
the door of the Tango and Turkey
Trot depends largely on the point OF
View as to whether the new dances
or the bridge craze are the less to be
desired.

Saturday Half HOLIDAYS

That the granting of Saturday half
holidays during July and August to
all the city employees of New York
who work by the day is going to be a
costly plan has already become ap-
parent, and officials are wondering
just where the money to meet the
cost, estimated at 100000 is coming
from. The controller, to whom falls
the puzzling job of discovering some
means of providing the money. char
acterizes the outlook as very invit-
ing one" particularly in view of the
fact that the margin of revenue bonds
which can be issued this year is only
about $23O,000. Borough President
McAneny says it will cost his depart
,nent at least $4,000 additional, as
he will have to employ extra shifts
of firemen, engineers and watchmen.
borough President Miller of the
Bronx estimates that 1t may cost him
az much as 100000 The extra cost
for the entire city will probably be
in the neighborhood of 100000.

AGED EGGS ARE
N. Y. DEL|CACY
Expert in Notable Case Asserts Three
Year Old Frozen Product
Good Food

NEW YORK, July 2S.-(Special)-
Tha old eggs are really the best and
that no one should scorn the deli
cate hen fruit because it happens to
oe a few years of age, or even old
enough TO vote, is the surprising tes-
timony just rendered by an expert
witness in a hearing now going on to
determine the status of 400 cans of
frozen eggs seized by the government
three years ago. The witness testi-
fled that these aged eggs We're per-
fectly wholesome and as evidence
told of feeding them to his family
and workers in his laboratory without
any Ill effects. When the health
sharps at the hearing seemed incerdu-
lous the expert explained that to keep
eggs for a few years is really nothing
compared to the feats of the Chinese,
who preserve them for indefinite per-
iods. He recalled that when Ii Hung
Chang visited America he brought
with him eggs a hundred years old
because there were none in this coun-
try old enough to suit his palate.
While the eggs have been ripening in
storage in Jersey City the federal
courts have been wrestling with the
problem of their fitness for food.
Judge Gross of the United States dis
trict court decided that the govern
ment had not proved its case against
the eggs. He was reversed by the
circuit court of appeals whose judg-
ment was in turn set aside by the
supreme court of the United states on
the ground that it was without juris-
diction. All that now stands between
the eggs and the public is the want
of an. order of the state board OF
health releasing them from storage
AS the latest reports show that the
cold storage eggs on hand in the Unit
ed States amount to over 100000
dozen, this case has attracted partic-
ular attention for more reasons thar
one.

WOMEN SHARE IN
WORLDS EXPO
VIII Have Great Part in Making Fair
Success-Factors in Devel-
opment.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2S.-(Spe-
cial.)-For the first time women have
been given a place as co-adjutors in
the creation of an international enter
prise, the Panama Pacific Interna-
tional Exposition at San Francisco in
1915.
When congress awarded to San
Francisco the honor of holding the
Panama-Pacific International Exposi-
ton group of prominent California
women offered their services to the
exposition directors. The offer was
promptly accepted and the women's
| beard of the Panama-Pacific Interna-
tional Exposition was organized.
After mature deliberation on the
! question as to whether the Women's
Board should erect a palace on the
exposition grounds for the housing of
| individual exhibits of women from all
parts of the world it was agreed that
the works of men and women were
so closely associated in every filed of
endeavor that it would be practically
impossible to separate the exhibits
Asked to Help.
4 The women asked that they might
assume an even part of the response
bilities and cares attendant upon the
creation of an exposition such as the
directors were planning. Their offer
was accepted by the directors of the
exposition and at this time women
serve on committees and have an ac-
tive part in the upbuilding of some
of the most important departments of
the exposition.
While the active membership of
the Women's Board is composed of
California women who, as they are
upon the ground, are better able to
direct the great work which the Wo-
mems Board has outlined, yet the
board has gained the cooperation and
support of women throuhgout the
world. Miss Jane Adams of Hull
House, one of the most famous socio-
logists in the world. has promised her
active assistance to Mr.. Alvin E. Pope
the chief of the department of social
economy at the exposition and a num-
Der of the prominent women of Eu-
rope and America will act as an ad-
visory board to the department.

: of the exposition will demonstrate in
a practical way many of the import
ant principles of applied social econ
omy. The study of social science will
[ be elaborately treated in one of the
, most important departments of the

cling to the luxuries of sleeping cars
until a transfer to a steamer on the
Athabasca river is made and will risk
discomfort only at one point where
for a stretch of rapids another trans
fer will be made to York boats, which,
being open, may call for umbrellas on
a rainy day. The major part of the
river journey, however, will be made
in steamers of the fur trade up and

tance of $500 miles and this will be
