WOMAN AS BILL COLLECTOR.
Mere Successful Than Her Male Com-
petitor in the Same Line.
"For persistent persuasive bill collect-
ing give me a woman every time," said
a dunniug creditor reeently. "I think
the future will see women the only bill
collectors. There is something in the
sight of a woman bill collector that few
men can resist. It deems strange, too,
that some of the most refined women
take to it. There are a handful of wo-
men money collectors in Philadelphia
and you can learn from their employers
that they .make a great success of their
vocation. They would not take to it
except for pure love of the thing.
"One woman in my employ, conceded
to be one of the meet tastefully dressed
and best looking women in the business
here, is as graceful as a queen in her
daily eollecting rounds. The most in-
teresting and unique thing about her
work is that elle never le awes any venom

mercantile establishments and wholesale

LONDON HAS BRIGHT DAYS.
Not Always Foggy, as 'Visitors Are In-
clined to Believe.
It is the conviction of many American
tourists in London that there is fog in
that metropolis 305 days in every, year
with the exception of leap year, when
there is fog on 306 days.
This exaggerated notion of London
fogs is quite refuted by an official pub-
lication of the English government,
which gives a compilation of the were
tiler conditions taken twice a day and
which shows the following result for
last year:
Days.

Snow ..... ... 16
Hail 5
Thunderstorm . , ... ... . • . . ... 3
Gale ... .. . . . ......... 2

Total ....................365
London had last year 1,400 hours of
sunshine out of 5,470 hours between the
rising and the setting of the sun. In
other words, about three-quarters of the
time taken by observations was over-
cast and the balance was elear,
London owes its fogs to a triple com-
bination of circumstances—westerly or
southwesterly winds 325 out of 365 days
of the year, salt marshes through much
of the territory over which the wester-
ly or southwesterly winds blow and an
almost universal use of soft coal. Last
year there were more days of sunlight
in London than there had been on an
evarage for twenty years before.

Litt IN A SIBERIAN PRISON.
Winter, fanged and remorseless as
winter is in these regions only, had fallen
on Siberia with a sort of hungryvenge-
ance, and lengthened the long journey
interminably. Cooped up in a Convict
ear, which was divided into some twenty
small, badly -ventilated tolls, it seems a
miracle that we did not perish miserably
on the watt/ One or two emaciated
wretches, bitten deeply by exposure and
consumption, did succumb, while the re-
mainder of my companions dwindled
gradually in numbers as we crawled tor-
tuously from station to station prison
to prison—over the barren leagues be-
tween Russia in Europe and the confines
of the empire, Alcatui, a decrepit vil-
lage at best, was more than half buried
in snow when we—myself, two other pris-
oners, and guards --arrived, after sledg-
ing the last fifty -mile stage of the joule
ney, Rising over the town at one end
was the gray prison, surrounded by high
and massive walls, built, it is said, of
material taken from the great wall of
China. Half frozen, nearly famished, and
wholly discouraged by the first glimpse
of what was to be my residence for near-
ly two years, I was lodged in a roomy
cell in company with two other prison-
ers of hope.
During the eighteen wretched months
that followed, every spare moment we
had was spent in planning an escape,
but so heavy was the guard maintained
over the town as well as the prison, and
so vigilant were the soldiery, that two
years passed before my dream of escape
came true—two .years of drudging, unre-
mitting labor in the silver mines of the
region; two years of rigor and hardships
which only the strongest constitutions
may possibly survive. Death, in fact, is
a release which on a dozen occasions I
have heard welcomed in our exile com-
munity there.—Gregori Gershuni, Rus-
sian Social -Revolutionary leader, in Les-
lie's Weekly.

Danger From Railroad Wrecks.
The immediate and all-important ques-
peelle not why the frequent wrecks are
'so destructive, but why they should be
allowed to occur in the first place. Steel
cars, of course, are better than wooden
ones, but there would be no complaint
of danger from the latter if the number
of wrecks oould be reduced i.n this coun-
try to what experience abroad shows to
be the unavoidable minimum. The mere
prospect of collision -proof ears in the
dim future will hardly divert public at-
tention from the task in hand, which is
to prevent the consequences of collisions
by abolishing collision.—Cleveland Plain -

Famine in Teachers.
(Forum.)
Good teachers are getting scarce. atlitieo
which exact a thigh standard of qualifies
tion find their eligible lista depleted anti. no
immediate supply in sight, • TMs state of
things is in a measure Acounted for. by
the prevaiiiug shabbiness in the' reauntira-
tion of teachers. The rewardeare not ,such
as to induce enough ambitious young ment0
invest their time and strength in a thorough
Preparatory course. The increase of money -
earning opportunities for working women has.
still further reduced the influx of deetrable,
material. The situation is a serious. one..
Thousands of efficient teachers leave school
work every yoar for more remunerative
labor, They feel that they can not, afford
the luxury of teaching. Meanwhile the num-
ber of inefficient ones must of necessity in-
crease.
