from an encumbrance of trunks. One or

fa a fluffy summer girl, whose nuest,+ll
to, the seaside or mountain is not for
health or enjoyment, but to pose as a
milliner's model, or a newly rich matron
whose mantua-maker has been given
carte blanche. ,and who is aching to
shine and outshine, that is another mat-
ter, and the number of trunks is not per-
mitted to interfere in her plans.
The other side of this trunk nuisance
is the amount of extra work which is
unnecessarily imposed upon the vast
army of men once known as "baggage-
emashers," but now known as baggage
men. During this season of the year
this branch of the railroad business is
eatly overworked, It is exacting,
hurried and exasperating labor, and the
only wonder is, considering the number
of pieces handled during the season that
snore are not lost or smashed than re-
ports show. The baggage smasher of
twenty years ago would stand little
chow of retaining his place under the
present system. The exercise of care
and the necessity of reducing damage
claims to the minimum has revolution -
$zed, in great measure, baggage handling
methods. Where trunks are ruined now
$t is either because they were of Mary
construction or partly damaged at the
outstart.—Philadelphia Press.

Needlework's Wages,
The a.pprelttice in dressmaking bas to
week sits mewls for n.othlnr, or perhaps
a mere pittanee as errand girl , Then she,
starts on linings at $4 per week. Next,
she does over -sewing and finishing at $6.
Trimmers oil, skirts or waists receive $12
to $14'per week, and fitters. from $15 to
$18. A. small esteblisl1ment is considered:
better than s4 large one for learning, the
trade, as more personal attention is
givers apprentices and there is quicker
advancement, Any woman who sews
neatly by hand or does fine embroidery
along popular lines can secure a position
in a shop without difficulty, and the fall
rush in dressmaking opens up Sept. 1.
A girl with the shopping gift can usu-
ally secure a position with a dressmaker
as shopper. Her first duties consist of
snatching thnes.•d, buttons, linings, etc.,
and later she is entrusted with trim-
mings,laces, cc. She starts at $4 per
week, spends most of her time in stores
and usually ,beeemes a professional shop-
ped -
Operators in, snit and waist factories
do piece -work principally, and as a rule
make $12 per week. Finishers, who sew
on .buttons, etc., receive no more than. $7
per week.
In underwear factories, girls start the
trade by running ribbon through bead-
ing, ironing, running buttonhole ma-
chines, and gradually learn to sew on in-
sertion, tucking, cis.. They quickly work
up to $6 per week, An expert in under-
wear makes $12 or $14 per week.—Anna

Thomas Hardy's First Love,
That Thomas hardy, although he aban-
doned his profession of architect to be -
mule a writer, has not forgotten his
first love. is shown by an interesting
paper reeentiy written by hien for the jl
society f6r the Protection o,f Ancient
Buildings. The subject was the restora-
tion of churches; and the author, after
speaking of the many open abuses in so-
called "restoration," goes on to say that
were he nnv practising as an architect
• he would not undertake to restore an
lold church under any circumstances. In
such an edifice the human interest al-
!ays ranks before the architectural in.-
�rterest, and therein lies the whole diffi-
• culty of restoration. The ideal method,
be thinks, would be to enclose the ruined
church in a crystal palace and to build a
new one alongside—although it is scarce-
ly necessary to say that he does not of-
fer this as a practical ,experiment.
AFTER TEN YEARS
Mr. G. L. Stephenson, of Peterborough,
says: "For over ten years I suffered con-
stantly with Piles, first Itching, then Bleed-

Tried everything in vain till I used Dr.
Leonhardt's Hem -Road.
"I had taken but a few doses when I be-
gan to notice an improvement. Now I am

Big Price for a Rare Coin.
One of the rarest American coins is the
$5 gold piece of 1822. One of these coins
sold the other day for $2,165. The last
owner of this particular coin had paid
only $6 for it. Not until about twenty
years ago did it become known that the
half eagles of 1522 coinage were scarce
enough to he classed among coins that
command fancy prices because of their
rarity. There were 17,796 of them mint-
ed, but at the present time only three
of them are known to exist. Besides
the one just sold there is one in the coin
cabinet of the Philadelphia mint and
another in tin; solvate collection of Vir-

Urging a New Secession.
(Texas Medical Journal.)
In Texas the negro is not elgiible un-
der our bylaws either to state or county
medical societies and can never be af-
filiated with the medical profession of
Texas. The southern people—the medical
men of the south—cheerfully accord to
him all that is coming to hint .We grant
him all • civil, political and religious
rights, but the line is drawn—and will
never relax—at social and scientific af-
filiation with him. The time has come
for the southern states to secede from
the American Medical association and
establish a southern medical confeder-
acy.

Glass to Keep Out Heat.
An Austrian inventor, Richard Szig-
inondy, is reported to have 'made as new
kind of window glass whose chief .pecul-
iarity is that it prevents the passage of
nine -tenths of the heat of the sun's rays.
It is well known that ordinary win-
dow glass allows nearly all of the heat
derived from the sun to pass through,
+
but, on the other hand, intercepts all
, heat coming from non -luminous sources,
such as a stove or the heated ground.
This is the reason why heat accumulates
under the glass roof of a hothouse.
If covered with Saigmondy's glass a
hothouse would, it is claimed, become a
cold house, ,since the heat could not get
into it.
