girl. Some OF these days, the +.
W. c., augmented by lot of work
ing women are going to rise in meet
ing and speak out.
There is a tendency that grows
stronger every year among a GER
tain class of people in these U. S.
Of A. to exploit SOIL thing, or some
one. They are never so happy as
when they are going about, asking
for aims, old clothes or "relief' in
some form or other, for their self
chosen recipients.
One Of the most CALLING phases Of
poverty is this branch of philanth-
ropy that goes about with brass
band and transparent signs, to tell
the size and nature of their NUM-
fcence.
The working girls and women Of
big cities, who are not trained for
professions, have a bad time of it,
lin a great many. instances. The
hours, especially of saleswomen, are
long, the duties trying, and in many
of the larger shops, the pitiful wages
are lessened by series Of petty
fines, assessments for sO-called bene-
violent societies, and other channels
which leave no choice but paying, to
the saleswoman who would hold her
Job.
Has it ever occurred to the self
appointed women philanthropists
just how much they are to blame for
much Of the horror of the working
girls position?
Over dressed, patronizing, self
satisfied, many of these women,
freed of home ties and regarding the
shops very much as one regards a
visit to the theatre, they sally forth
and add to the misery of hundreds
of women less fortunate than them
selves, by their eXactions, their
faultfnding, the quickness with
which they report often fancied
Sights and give little thought to
what that all amounts to in the pay
envelope, at the end of the week, for
the saleswoman.
Northern shops are the greatest
sinners in this respect, and the fact
that few salesWomen, in the depart
ment stores ever average more than
eight dollars a week, means tragedy
when fines for impoliteness, inatten-
ton to customers, errors in sales
slip, in getting correct addresses or
names are counted.
The woman of leisure can do much
to tighten the load of these sisters
of toll and she can do it without
organizing or banquetting.
This is the time Of year when the
lot Of the saleswoman calls for spe-
cial prayers for patience, charity
and fortitude. She has to be patient
while women shop for things they
don't know the uses of; she has to
wait patiently and cheeffully while
they make up their minds
she has to remember a dozen
charges in as many minutes, and her
tired eyes, head, hands and feet
must never fail to respond to the ex-
acting days and nights of the before
Christmas trade.
Women are always hardest on wo-
men. For the Sinking floor wal
ker" their manner is cherriness it.
self; for the unhappy saleswoman, it
is a cross between the tone they use
in reprimanding the cook or find
ing fault with a poor relation.
If women were prompt in settling
their bills, the proprietors of the de-
partment stores assure us there
would be less difficulty in paying bet
ter wages.
Are you very thoroughly familiar
