a LACK OF GOOD COOKS.

The lack Of good cooks and servant
girls is referred to by the Des Moines
Capital In dealing with the question of
female help in factories and stores.
The Capital says it Is fully as honor
able to be a servant or a cook as to
be a clerk behind a ribbon counter.
THE orator." says the Capital, will
tell the audience that the country Is
full of wealth and that everybody has
to work hard, but that there is not a
proper distribution OF wealth, or the
earnings Of labor. We are not going
to argue this question. But in other
respects there Is lack Of distribution.
There is a great lack of good cooks and
servant girls. The young women all
prefer some other occupation. We do
not know whether the housewives have
been to blame; we are not going to ar
que the treatment bestowed upon serv-
ant girls. But girls will work for five
dollars week in factory or store and
board themselves in preference to six
or seven dollars g week and board as
cooks or servants. These conditions
ought not to continue. 1t Is fully as
honorable to be servant or q cook
as to be clerk behind ribbon coun-
ter. We are inclined to believe that
conditions could be improved by fix
ing the hours of labor for servants.
Every girl wants to know what time
abe has to arise in the morning, and
what time she can have to herself at
other periods. When she clerks in q
store she Is sure Of her evenings, ex-
cepting Saturday. She has more time
at her own disposal. Possibly she is
not scolded. In this community, where
complaint is made of lack of employ
ment, young women, for servants and
cooks in private homes. are not to be
had. II the women's clubs are lacking
q theme, we suggest this one. They
ought to be ready with q solution"

A strike is an expensive form OF
arbitration which leaves everybody
satisfied but the ultimate consumer. 1t
IL called a strike because It raises
large welts on the common people,
who are obliged to pay not only the
funeral expenses, but heavy dividends
on, the outraged feelings OF the strikee.
Strikes are usually called In order
to persuade capital to quit stealing the
bedding from labor. When manu-
facturer IL squeezing 40 per cent divi-
dends out OF stock which Is so per

week, he is liable to come down to

He then makes 10 per cont increase
in wages and puts several healthy
notches in the price to the consumer,
In order to assuage his mental
anguish.
