FOOLISH WIVES OF HISTORY
"Eve''


Eve, wife of Adam (family name
supresseO, was the first woman to
adopt modern day attire. She kept
her ears covered, however, so as to
afford surprise to her second hus-
band in the event one materialized.
Eve lived with her aforesaid husband
in the Garden of Eden, in its day the
foremost fruit market.
Eve and Adam were star boarders,
being prime favorites with the host.
One day, however, the host saw Eve
pilfer an apple from his favorite
stand and told her that while he was
fond of her and gave her lot of priv
ileges he would not extend to any
other woman, she must not under any
circumstances, touch any of the fruit
on that particular stand at which she
pilfered the apple the day previous.
Eve promised, but within the hour
she met John w. Rather, who told
her that he had just been talking
with neighbor and that he had
learned that apples were thinning
that one stout matron had taken off
twenty pounds by means of an apple
diet-and within another hour Eve
was back at the apple stand just gorg.

"Why, Mr.. Webster, Pm surprised"

There is reason for newspaper to give these

The analysis of employment by
the L. s. Employment Service pro-
vides a valuable index to the rela-
tive condition of industry for the
last six months when the figures
are studied for the entire period.
This Industrial employment survey
is now available for fourteen groups
of industries arranged to correspond
with the census.
AS a base for beginning the COM
parisions of the current year the
survey of employment in January,
1920. omprcd with January, 1921,
is important. In this study only
eight groups were used which were
arranged on a different plan from
those now being gathered monthly.
AS the following tble shows. the
total number of workers employed
was 36.9 per cent less in January,
1921, than the same date in 1920.
The greatest depression was in
the automobile industries which was
only sos per cent of the 1920 total.
Building was next, AIS per cent.
