Away up in the tower of the Pulitzer building in New York, fifteen storeys from the greet, in a cosy room that overlooks the lower part of the city and thengIorions bay, there sits a young, hands -me and brainy woman. She is Miss E. G. Jordan, editor of the women's and children's pages of the New York Sunday World and assist.' ant editor of The Sunday World. She is always dressed in elegant and fashionable gowns - severely ' simple and stylish. She is tall, beautifully PrOportion- ed, and makes a charming picture as one opens the cloorof her little sanctum. Her . hair is dark eird:wern pain classic coil. Her eyes are e'er, cleep ancl ef an intellectu- al gray. Although her brain and hands are full of work, she never seems hurried or ill .at ease. Miss Jordan is always courteous and cardial to visitorsn •and. caonot, fail to make a charming -impression upon all who meet her. had no influence except as the influence of men has helped her, end this has been often too selfish to be of any practical benefit to her. Competition, profit and business suc- cess are far more poweiful than any senti- ment or any feeling of knightly chivalry. This position is well illustrated by the movements in England and in this country to reduce the hours of labor. Long before eny legislation took place fixing the hours in certain industries at ten on leas, in those in- dustries where men solely or principally were employed the hours -have been ten or leas. It tool-. legislation, positive enact- ment and the power of government to bring the hours of lebor of women and children to an equality with those of men. The lack of direct political influence must be consid- ered as constituting a powerful reason why women's wages have -been kept at the minimum. Fifthly, as woman hat come into the in- dustrial field as a new economic factor, the pressure to secure positions in that field has created a eupply altogether out of propor- tion to the demand, and thus every position which she might occupy is sought by many, so that her remuneration is within the power of the employer. If I am asked how the relative inferiority of woman to man in industrial matters is to be overcome, and a perfect or approximate equality reached, I confeas that I cannot answer, except in the most general way and along lines which seem to permit me simply to use platitudes. The growing im- portance of woman's, labor, her general equipment through technical education, her more positive dedication to the life -work she chooses, the, growing sentiment that an educated and skilful woman is a better and truer life companion than an ignorant and ineskilful one, her appreciation of cornbin- °Mon, and the general uplifting of the senti- ment of integrity in business circles, her gradual approach to man's powers in mental work, her possible political influence -all these combined, working along general avenues of progress and of evolution, will bring her industrial emancipation, by which she will stand, in those callings in life for which she may be fitted, on an equality with man. As she approaches this equality, her remuneration will be increaeed and her economic importance acknowledged. --,Car- roll D. Wright, United States Commissioner of Labor, in the Forum. Elizebeth G. Jordan was born in Mil- waukee, May 9th, 1867. , Shii went into newepaper work in 1887, aft,3r her gradua tion from the state university, She was connected with Peck's Sun for one year, having charge of the women's department and doing general editorial work. During this time she was atm a special writer for the St. Peril Globe, Chicago Tribune and a number of large southern dailies, In 1888 Miss Jordan went to Chicago and did epeciel writing for the Tribune of that city. She went te New York early in 1890, at the invitation of Golonel Cockerill, then editor in chief of the New York World. She has been connected with the World ever since. During the first year she did all around reporting. Her epecial out of town aeeignments inoladed 'a trip through the Virginia and Tenneasee mountains, whienaehe made oil 'horseback, accompanied only by a negro guide; sleeping in the cabins of the mountaineers by night, and identify- ing herself witlisetheir home life as closely as .postiblee The work oa)hich elle made her reputa- tion was the publication of the World's "True Stories of the News," one of which appeared in The World every morning. They were chronicles of the happenings in -a great city, and rangei from the humorous to the deeply tragic. The preparation of these articles toile Miss Jordan into the hoepitals, pence stations and police courte, the morgue and the great east side tene- ments. of New York. She soon became knowe to the majority of the city officials, who were very helpful to he in gathering her material. One night she, went to the chariteble hospital on Ines§kwell's Weed to write up the death of a consumptive. She sat by the side of the dying woman from 6 o'clock in the evening ..until twenty minatas past 2 the uext morning, when he patient died. Atiother time she went to the morgue at midnight to find the body of a baby who -3e pamente could not afford- to give it learial, and which bad died in thein arms' on the street as ehey were t taking it to the hospitel.

They must always have aeparate suds, made with saft water and white eoap. Ammonia brightens the color. Careful washing is of little avail un- lest.the flannel is properly waehed the first time. Soak in -lukewarm water not loriger than ten minutes, wash and fold smoothly to wring. Have a warm suds reedy, wash quickly, make another suds and repeat the waehing until the water is left as soft and sudsy after the goods were put in as befo re. Rinse ia very warm water, shake well, and dry quickly. Never let sbrinkable goods freeze. The soaking in clear water le not neceesery after the first washing, excepting for working men's shirts when filled with perspiration, or for baby' skirts ; and one washing is usually sufficient. My flannels neither fade nor shrink. Expectant. Close by a prosperous church in a Kansas town is a district known as "Tennessee Town," populated entirely by negroes, The pastor of the church, as the story is told by the Youth's Companion had long make efforts to organize classes of the young colored boys for the purpose of giving them inetruction in literary and scientific topics. Ho was only partly successful. Nothing that -he ceuld get for.the entertainment or anausernent of the restlesseidle lads seemed to have any effect on them. He tried magic -lanterns and legerdemain, and all kinds of "clubs," but felt that he was not succeed- ing in the least. At last he purchased a small box of chemicals, practised a list of experiments, and announced an illustrat- ed lecture on "The Wonders of Little Things." The little hall was packed with an en- thiniestic audience. and the experiments were successful. durious to know the rea- sons for the large attendance on this par- ticuler occasion the long suffering lecturer called up one of the brightast lads at the close Of the entertainment and questioned him. "What made so many boys come the lecture to -night ?" " I specs kase we 'lowed you was ter blow yosef up !" "What! Do the boys want to blown' up ?" o, sale," with a grin.

"Yes, sah, but we knowed you'se only an am ytower !" for some tine come. . Why Women are Paid Less 5 Than Men. Thereneeke potent aud logical reasons why women are employed at so low a rate which cannot be=overcome by any considerations, either so ial, or economic, or legislative. These co siderations are interesting, and account c nclusively for the present etetus of affairs; Felative to women's wages. The - reasons are as follows: Firstly, etepping out of industrial cub jection and general aubjection to man, wo- man comes out iato 01,3 iochistrial system fief the present as an entirely new economic factor. If there were no other reasons, this ;none vvould be sufficient to keen her wages love and to prevent their very rapid in- , crease. - Secondly, woman occupies a lower stand- ard of life, both in physicel features and in mental demands. She is also the victim of the influence of the astistaece which she re- ceives in a large proportion of cases from her farnily and _friends. Thia lowersa her ecoaomic standard- to a great degree, while the lack of -physical endurance interferes with her industrial prochictivity and com- pels her to atand upon a lower plane in this respect than does man. This reason acts strongly, not only upon Cinautity, but upon quality of work performed. Thirdly t she receives low wages Ithroug,h an tueufficient equipmeat for life work, which -is not the results of incapacity of mind orelack of skill, but is due largely to the hope that the permattence work will be interrupted by maialmouy. Inferior work is often the direct tesult of the same hope ; the one is the sure compliment of.the other. The lack of technical treining; froth which training she haft shrunk, has caused her to occupy an baferior position, or rather to remain in such poettion. She does not feel warranted la spendiog years if required, in equipping herself for the best service, and. this is true to some extent in the highefit grades of employment now sought by wo- men. This, in conjunction with another fact, largely accounts for her low remuner- ation in general. The othernfact is when occupying a good position she does not always fill it with the same assiduity that accu.nipanies a man's service. „ She has not the responsibilities, either of family or of society, to lead her ambition to secure the beat results, and she in non -therefore, stimu- lated by the powerful forcer; which stimulate a man to do his best in whatever line he finds his life cast. Fourthly, woman has husked, so far, in- fluence which cornea from combination and aesociation. She works in an individual capacity, andnwith the weakness id individ- ual effort. She has not learned the power of combining her fotces, nor the powerful infiuence which corned from combination, as men have done. Ftetthermore, she has not • been a political factor in society.

The workmen of a new line of electric lights in weatern city began to dig a post - hole in front of Dutchman's dwelling, when the muter of the house ca.me out and forbade themadecontinue the work. They explained that they had authority from the proper officials but this did not in the Jeast pacifenthe indignant house -holder, who had made up hie mind that he -could not, would not, and should not have such a nuisance in front of his house. After a good deal of wrangling, the man announced that they could not waste their time in talking, i,and prepared to set to work. Thereupon the Dutchman called his wife, and with a dexterous aud unexpected movement suc• coeded in flinging over the hole the men were digging a large,flat slate upon which he established the -lady. " Now, Gretchen," he said, " dat ish where you shtands till I COMB back mit ein enjunction." eVitli many charges to his wife not to stir from that slate until his return, he depart- ed to get the injuuction which should force the workmen to cease their labors, and the stolid Dutch frau stood like a statue of im- mobility, her hands oa her hips and defiance paintea upon her face. No sooner had the husband disappeared than the leader of the gang directed his men to take the slate with the frau on it and lift it from its place. It was a pretty severe tug, but it -was accom- plished, and with perfect politetess the cor- pulent lady was set to one side,as if ehe had been a fat teapot on a salver. The work of digging then went merrily forward, and while the Dutch wife held to the letter of her husband's orders with silent fidelity, the men set up the tall pole.

To the true dust -hater no family trouble or family joy is paramount. With her mouth she may mourn William's sorrow or exult over Edith's prosperity. Her eyes are roving. They spy the bit of fluff upon the carpet, and she checks her sobs to pick it up. The reciter of Edith's happiness is interrupted while she walks across the floor to wipe off a tables edge or to lament the difficulty of keeping a room clean when the windows are So often opened.

An enthusiastic of this sorb one evening, with, a, tragic air, requested her husband to accoMpany her to an upper chamber. The tired lawyer was impressed by her solemn manner, and heavily climbed the necessary stairs. The lady led him into a room and pointed sternly to a table, " LOak at that," she said, indignantly. "Three times this week I have told Mary to dust it. I believe she neglect] it pur- posely. I am completely disheartened. The lawyer looked at the table and sighed.

'This was said very softly and we were almost paralyzed with fright at the prospect. We were all afraid to stir for fear the rep- tile would telte alarm and etrike its victim.

" At times the snake's head was close to his face,and he told us afterwards he feared •the motion of his chest up and down in breathing would stir up the animal, and he tried hard to breathe as •little as possible.
