SOURCE-An occupation.

The occupation of brewing in the
United States has reverted largely to
the position it occupied in the middle
ages when the words brewer" and
brewster" developed into, family
names That is to say, it has become
a home industry"
Brewster. of course. as may be
gathered from the explanations pre-
viously given of the names Baxter
and Webster. is simply the feminine
form of the word brewer" A re-
markable equality existed between
the sexes in the matter of work in.
the middle ages in England. Vir-
tually all occupations except the very
heaviest manual labor and the pro-
fesSion of arms We're followed as
widely by women as men. Under the
industrial system of the age, how
ever. both men and women worked in
their own homes. or in little shops
attached to their dwellings, In one
old manuscript the following defini-
tion of "brewsters' is given:
Women quha brewes aill to be
saudi (Women who brew ale to be
sold).
Family names derived from this
particular form of the feminine do
not necessarily indicate that the first
bearers of them were women. At the
period they came to be rather loosely
used for either masculine or fem
mime.

preoccupied with her own thoughts
and problems. At any rate, this Is
the tale Of young lady who worked
at the main city post ONCE of Wash
ington and a nice old gentleman who
wanted to find the Union station. A
heavy suit case completes the tri-
angle of this problem.
The young lady was just about to
get on a Brookland street car sew
eral days ago when the old man, plus
the suit case. timidly inquired Of
her as to the proper car to take to
get to the station. She told him that
the car she was getting on went
within block Of the station, and
IL he would get on. too. 1t would
take him very close to his destina-
ton. The young lady added that. as
she was getting of at the same<street
corner to go to work. she would be
glad to furnish further directions
when they descended.
The nice, old gentleman thanked
her profusely and subsided into an
other seat in the street car. The
suit case was left under the super
vision Of the conductor.
The young lady was so occupied
in reading her morning papers that
she didn't consider either the pass
ing scenery or the old gentleman Tor
some time. Suddenly she was brought
to an abrupt realisation OF this state
Of affairs when the conductor banged
the seats into reverse positions. and
poised himself nicely on one toe as
he ground the front sign on the car
around and around till it finally
stopped at "11th and Monroe streets.
The preoccupied yong lady discov-
cred that she was in Brookland.
She jumped to her feet and, going to
the conductor, shook him by the
leather patch upon his blue coat
sleeve. Did the old man who wanted
the Union station get of at the right
stop?" she anxiously inquired.
Indeed. no did," responded the con-
ductor blandly. land blest If he didn't
