STATE DOES NOT PAY WOMEN SAME AS MEN. Sise Light on th« “Equal Pay For Equal Work" issue. Exsminatioa of the roster of state employees does not tear oct the statement widely circulate.l by the women school teachers of New York that throughout the state <Sv3 service salaries are fixed without regard to sex. While it » evidently the intent of the law to pay worses the same salaries received by men in tdenticai positions, the fact seems to be that the state is e mpelied to pay male employees higher salaries than it pays women employees ar that men are invariably appointed to the higher clerics! positions. The state roster shows in the board of charities one man clerk BLOOO. three women ierks $720 each; corporation tax bureau, six men clerks averaging $1,540, one woman clerk WX'. two men stenographers $1,500 each, three women stenographers 87*' each. In the state department of education there is one man clerk in the administration division at s94*) a year, while four women clerks receive an average salary of ss*>. In the examiner's divis ion the two men examiners are paid sl-200 each, while fifteen women examiners average 8770 each The same rule prevails in the department of excise. the state department of health and the office of the secretary of state. These cases are not exceptional, but are representative of the scale of men's and women s wages paid throughout the state civil service. The figures show that the claim put forward that it is only in the schools that women receive less pay than men is entirely unfounded and that in practice there is no each thing as "pay for position.” TO CUT TELEGRAPH RATES. Automatic Apparatus For Sending ana Receiving and Lower Line Cost Will Bring Price Down to a Cent a Word How the new telegraph company, the Telepost, will be able to do a profitable business at its rate of a cent a word between all points was explained this week by a New York representative of the company. “We have in the Delany automatic sending and receiving apparatus.” he said, “a means of reaching speeds of 1/JOO words a minute. Making the most liberal allowance of time for the preparation of the tapes by which this system operates, we can handle telegrams several hundred times faster than the present companies do. "The result is that the four wires of our trunk lines will give us the same capacity as sixty-eight Western Union wires The saving oa construction is enormous o ur outlay per mile will be only one-fifth of the cost of the old companies for lines of equal capacity. “These are the main but not the only economies that will enable the Telepost to make money at its rate of 25 cents for twenty-five words. There will be no bookkeeping, the blanks on which messages are written being sold like stamps for face value. We expect to employ experienced operators, but for a given volume of business we shall not need fiearly so many as the old companies employ. “Os course our rates were not decided upon with out the most careful computation of costs. We shall, as a matter of fact have a larger margin of profit than the Western Union or Postal show even at their higher rates. This Is true of Teleposts’ delivered by mall for 25 cents tor fifty words as well as of tele-grams." “Identical Education" a Failure? That the present identical education of boys and girls has been weighed and found wanting is acknowledged by those in closest touch with the children approaching adolescence. What habits acquired by the child will insure success for the man or woman? Certain habits—regularity, punctuality, personal cleanliness, mors! rectitude. respect for authority, devotion to duty—are needed by both men and women and can be instilled by either men or women teachers into both boys and girls. As the boy approaches the age of puberty then let his teachers be men. Other qualities physical courage. a spirit of fair pity, resentment under insult, business integrity—can be best developed by men teachers in boy*’ schools, just as gentleness, tenderness sympathy, tactfulness, the spirit us hospitality, charity in thought and kindred traits can best be instilled by women teachers in girls' schools.—l Julia Richman, District Superintendent of Schools, in New York Tribune.

Dried Current Rte, Some day when you wish a new desset try a dried current pfe. This recipe was originated by a woman one year when fresh fruit was scarce. It proved a great success and was so delicious that it was called for many times afterward. Carefully pick over and wash one pound of currants. When the currants are ready for use pour celd water over them and drain it off Just before putting theta into a pan lined with pie crust. Cover the fruit with bits of currant, grape or apple I Jelly, cover the top crust and place In the oven. The heat In baking makes , the currants swell up like fresh fruit and melts the jelly into a delicious fruit sirup, thus making a very agreeable substitute for a fresh fruit pie. Although the plans of the new tele-1 graph company, the Telepost, are be-: Ing carried on without an undue amount of publicity that might tnerease the oppoeltlon of the old companies. good progress is being made, and the establishment between several of the larger cities of wire service at 25 cents for twenty-five words may be looked for at an early day.
