THREE cardinal reasons are responsible
i. for tho fact that the domestic servant.
now worth her weight In gold because of
the end OF immigration, has been wooed
into the business and industrial world from
the private home.
They have the protection afforded by tho
law to female workers in business and
Industrial establishments, the limitation OF
working hours and that Difference. lacking
in homes. that the woman employe finds In
factory, shop and store.
These three reasons overbalance the
economic attraction OF domestic work. In
spite of the greater opportunity for saving
money afforded tho worker in the home, the
average girl prefers what is known as
public" work.
There Is common sense In It and there is
psychology in IT, The law provides cer-
tain regulations to which the employer in
the establishment must adhere including
regular hours. And the wgkers pride Is
gratIfied by treatment which Is unknown to
the servant.
The Pennsylvania woman's labor act of
10i3 in It's very first section, specifically
excludes domestic and agricultural workers
from its provisions, The public health and
welfare of all other female workers 1t pro-
tects by regulating their employment in
certain establishments with respect to their
hours of labor and the conditions of their
employment"
PROTECTION FOR WORKERS
The cook. maid. nurse and other house
workers were not included in the legal
supervision by the State because of the
difficulties that would be involved II was
said at the Offices of the State Department
ot Labor and Industry. Inspection, such as
is carried on in establishments by State
officials, is virtually impossible in the home !

termined effort to capture the Ameri-

sible by the expiration ON April IL of
the Haskell patent. under which golf
balls are manufactured in the United
States. The Haskell patent, which
killed the guilty ball. was not recog-
nized by the English law courts, but
was declared valid in America, thus
keeping the ever improving British
balls out of that country.
After April IL the market will be
open. subject to the payment of duty
of 10 per cent-about cents a ball.
Cheaper labor here will compensate for
that, and ten leading British firms are

PraQmatist's Belief

The pragmatist believes that we live
IN a world capable of Improvement.
but his immediate outlook seems to
be upon pluraIistic collection OF
loose ends, which may perhaps some
time be gathered up into a fair EN-.
broidery, but of which we have no real
certainty and of which we have no pat
tern. The spiritual idealist. on. the
other hand, is working upon a remedi.
able, incomplete world, with a clear
consciousness that he is striving for
an ultimate spiritual unity in which
the world will be cleansed and com,
pleted. His is an ideahsm in the max.
ing. an idealism which by his own
work he can help to realize.

Unliohted Stars.

1t is reasonable to assume that the
lumber of stars in space having u
temperature so low that their radia-
tiens do not affect our eyes or photo
graphic plates is extremely large.
That these invisible stars are far
more numerous than the luminous
stars is suggested by Mr.. F. A. Linde-
man, who attempts rough calcula-
tion of their relative number, based
on the assumption that new stars
(novae) are due to collisions. He
concludes that there are about four
thousand times as many dark stars as
br ght ones.
