EVIL OF SWEATSHOP -SYSTEM
.Wretchedly Paid Workers Pay Toll to
Vanity of  Dwellers  in the
'   Great Cities.
Appeal to heart and conscience alike
must' have been powerfully, made to
the many women and fewer "men -who
were beguiled by social curiosity or
led by philanthropic interest to examine the collection of garments ahd of
photographs made by the Consumers'
league ahd exhibited at the Normal
college Ih New York. The photographs Showed tenement rooms on "the
East side with men,.women and little
children' -working on the garments
that hung close by with placards
fastened to them telling the few pen-
nles an hour and a garment that these
same toilers had received. A large
part of the exhibit was "the "work, of
the child victims of the sweatshop
system. And it* was by no means
clothing of the cheaper grades' that
was most conspicuous, hut articles
made to meet the wishes of' the -well-
to-do and even the fastidious, such ss
are. sold in the city's most elaborately
furnished stores., _?or dainty, feather-
stitching on a baby's dress, a child,
"herself hardly more than a baby, ls
paid perhaps four cents. " Twelve
bunches of artificial roses are r»»d-
for.a penny. If the -worker is speedy
she can earn 60 cents a day. Artificial
violets are cheaper. A. mother and
four children, pf ages from 12 to 6,
earn_ together 60 cents a day.    Their
.Wsmin't Looks. In. Business.
An attractive, slender ^figure, _ a-
bright,;.healthy appearance', an alert
bearing" and "graceful ease of movement—these are beauties and personal advantages which women In busl-
aesir do well to cultivate and preserve.
They are often a passport to-success
when applying for a situation, while
the young woman with a clumsy figure, sallow complexion, and slow
movements . has a much smaller
chance. .There ls also the question of
health. Stout persons, as a rule; are
more Inclined to the common ailments
af everyday life than those who are
iliin and "on the move;" and obesity,
__ disease in Itself, brings others in
Its train. Plumpness is often very
-harming. It ls when the plumpness
tarns into real, undoubted fatness that
there is cause for alarm." Neglected
fatness will soon mean chronic obe-
ilty; then troubles come.
Vine,
Wise  Man's   Bad   Break.
According   to   the   Vineland
Bill,SInealler says:
'-'Tke.wisest man I ever knew knew
nothing.   He had a wise look, and the
only sense he had was the sense 'of
keeping* Mb mouth  shut.   His    wise
look Increased with age, and he came
to be an oracle without having" oracled
anything.   For a, quarter of a century-
he halt his peace, hut a disk at a dinner was" his undoing.   At a dinner the
Wise man sat in all the mystery'of.
{his  solemn silence.   There happened
'to be shrimps, and. as that was met-
work may be seen at the exhibit.   It [Honed   his    face lighted   up.   There

is beautiful; but the system that produces it at this cost of young life ls
an abomination.' Hand-sewn men's
neckties intended to be sold at; from
50 cents to ?1 each, pay the maker 55
cents a dozen. The ultra-respectable
black stock collar for elderly women
retailing for 50 cents cost the vender
for making less than 1% cents, apiece:
Is it nothing to those who buy; such
things that child life is stitched Into
their seams?—New York Churchman.
NOT WHAT  TOMMY  DESIRED
was a hush as if the great.moment
Bad arrived when the wise, man was
going to speak. He did speak. He
simply said, 'Them's me.' It was a
■ad break of an* owl-like silence; and
it fixed the man."

"Do you believe," queried the fair
widow,."that universal peace will eyer
be "established?" "Not unless people
quit getting married!" growled the. old
bachelor.—Chicago Daily News.

Incident  That  Caused   Youngster   _•
Have Grave Doubts of ths
Efficacy of Prayer. ■«-
The Sunday school lesson had been
on' the efficacy of prayer, and tke
teacher had done her best to instill
into the .youthful mind the belief th»€
our praye|s are answered. There was
One 'd6,ub.ting*..^hoinas, however, who
insls ted^ __a t'hfe __n _W< better.
i"Why,'-T.ommy, _. am surprised to hear
you say you don't believe our prayers
are answered," expostulated " tke
teacher.
"I* know they aih't," persisted Tommy,  doggedly.
"What makes you think so?" asked
the teacher.
"I don't think-it; I know it," ,replied Tommy. "You-know tke ang'gls
brought a-new baby to our house last
week."
"Yes, I heard about that," said -the .|
teacher.    "Now, slirely, that was an-
answer to prayer,.wasn't it?""
"It was, nit!".replied.Tommy disgustedly. ''Why, for six months,_'Ye
been prayinrfor a goat."

Her Overdraft.
A prominent Philadelphia bfuAer
was talking the other day of -fhe't__.-
bles of some of his feminine depositors.
"Women are queer creatures when
It comes to business,", he said. ' "For
one thing, no woman- can understand
why we won't send her unlimited
amounts of money if she asks toi"r It
over the telephone.
"But the funniest incident I've
known happened the other: day. .We
sent word to one of our woman depos-'
itors that her account .was overdraw*..
We expected her to be angry. They;
usually are.   But she wasn't.
"No, indeed.. She -sat down -and
wrote us a gracious and lovely Httla,
letter on crested paper, thanking; us.
for'letting her know that her Account
was overdrawn.
"T am sO glad to. oblige you ;. by
remedying the defect" At once,' she
wrote.
"And she inclosed a check fpr |759
drawn on our own bank."
