CITY WORKING-GIRLS.

THE WAGES THEY GET IN THE VARIOUS FIELDS OF LABOR. Early Morning Nraim na lit streets C areworn IVxpreanlona on Young Faros lr.l Work and Poor Health HalaMoiiMt Type-Writer fdnrinnati Times-Star.l Presently, the sun became wnnr, and seemed to glare right into the eyes of the city. for t.inciunali shook , herself, slrtulinl herself, stretched a moment. al theo woke up, every place at once. The population began to jHiur into the fctreet from all directions, ami the niilewalka oon lcame crowded with jedestrians of every description on their way to work. There were old, 8toophoulderl men. end happy, merry-look iag boy. There were a;red, crippled women to beg on the corn;r. and careless, laughing little girls, to play in the streeta There were all kinds of people grave and gay, sweet-faced, sour-faced, and dirty-faced, good, bad and indilTerenL Tlicre were old hats and new hats: straw hata, felt hats, and no haU at alL Some carried baskeis, some carried buckets, and some carried nothing but light hearts and empty pursed The rich were there, the poor were there. The rich joxtled the poor, and the ioor jostJed the rich. The rich frowned and wr.re silent, and the TURf-'ed whinlled and sang. "If you want to see life In a great city." observtd the hoary-headed philosopher, "you must get up at daybreak and watch the X'ople on the streets. You will see all kinds of characters then, and all manners of existence, Now, here comes an interesting party," pointing to a little group of working girls walking wast on Fifth street. They were lightly and cleanly dressed, and were talking noisily together. "It would be a di!t:cult matter to ascertain what proportion workingwomen bear to the imputation of Cincinnati. From 6 o'clock in the morning until 7:110 the streets are thronged with them, and they constitute a good share of the iedestrians from now until o'clock. Then again at M in the afternoon they till the streets and horse-cara They are of all ages from the cash girl of 12 or 13, in short dresses, to the gray-haired, stooping woman of 70. Among them are all degrees of intelligence, all rationalities, all styles of beauty. The majority of them are bright, well-behaved, and prettyj but they generally look weary, and often ilL A early all of them are pale and thin, and have careworn expressions, sadly out of keeping on young faces, that should Ik- bright and cheerful. Many worklug girls begin daily labor before they are fully in their teeua In large families, which are the rule among the poorer people, the little daughter is often compelled to lend her aid to the general support, and her small salary of perhaps 1.50 per week is by no means to be despised. Her older sister's is often as lunch as the father makes. " "In what kind of work are most of them engaged?" asked the writer. "lly far the greater projwrtion are sewing -girl. " was the reply. " I nder this clans may bo mentioned machine-operators, shii tmakers, and those engaged in various other branches of the trade. " What do they make?" "Shirtmnkers get:) cents per dozen for shirts. Two doen is a good dav's work. At this a fast worker could average about lf;if0 a week. C'loakmakers will average a lii-le better, some of them making as much as i$ a week. But the hardest work of this character is that of the tailoreas, who makes front $7 to a week. All this kind of work is very confining, und the constant stooping renders the operator very susceptible Jo lung disease. lJneiv monia is very fatal to them. "In binderies girls are paid either by the piece or so much a week. They never average over 1 or $5 in these establishments. The girls who run folding-machines are paid about the same salary. Female cigar-makers are generally very well paid,"as they belong to the union and are allowed union prices. - - "And then there are hundreds of girls employed in shoe factories, rag establishments, peanut houses, and printing ollices. In all these places their work is valued much lens than that of ma'es. and when they work on salaries their wages are considerably smaller. The pay for labor in such places varies greatly, and dej ends almost entirely upon the liberality of the employer. 1 know a shoe manufacturer who pays his girls $S or flOa week apiece, and another w bo pays less than half that much. In the houses where irls are employed in assorting rags they generally earn from spil to $0 a week, and in printing ollices if paid according to the wpe uey set they would earn nearly as much as men. They are much quicker workers, their hands are more nimble and dexterous, and they apply themselves closer to the work. " "Here comes a well-dressed party of young ladies, " said the reporter, indicating a little processiou approaching. " Yes, " said the other, "they are saleswomen in the retail dry goods and notion stores. They must always be well dressed and refined in manners and aparance. Other working-women may wear rough dresses suited to the kind of work in which they are engaged, but a saleswoman must always be scrupulous and neat in personal attire. They generally begin as cash girls at jer week, and finally get behind the counter at $.". From this time on their wages depend entirely upon the value they are to the firm by" w hoi. they are employed. There are seldom two female clerks in a store working for the same wages. Some can command larger salaries than others by their greater number of acquaintances and the larger trade they are able to briug to the house. Some of the most valuable saleswomen of t iucinnati get as high as f 25 and ;0 a week. "Hut perhaps the best paid working women are the milliners. Their salaries depend ujon their talent and adaptability, and they frequently command incredible wages. "And then telegraphing and stenography and type-writing provide places for scores of bright young girls. As a rule, female telegraph operators receive twothirds the average of men. Stenography is an acquirement which any girl can learn with profit. Those who make a business of it can always findemi lorment and make excellent wages. "Type-writing has opened a new field for young womeu. They are almost universally employed for this work. Lawyers and merchants and all business men like to have a pleasant young lady in the tticft Her presence improves the moral tone of the sanctum, and gives the place an air of culture and refinement Typewriters average about 12 per week.

An Antiquarian. Pig-area That Christ Was lorn Vive Tears Earlier Than Bappoeed. Inter Oe-ao The much-debated question as to the correctness of the hitherto accepted reckoning of the years which have elapsed since the birth of Jesus has again been mooted by Professor Sattler, of Munich, in the columns of a German contemporary. He claims the distinction of having solved the problem, and of having demonstrated the fact that the current year in probably 1SSKJ instead of l$-r, and bases his proofs mainly on three coins which were struck in the reign of Herod Antipas, son of Herod the tireat, and which date, conso .nently, from the first half of the first century of the Christian era. The evidence they offer coincides with the narr ative of the gospel and with astronomical calculations, and the following are the results at which Professor Sattler has arrived: "Jesus was bornonliec. S3, ;w years after the founding of Porno, and commenced His public career on Nov. 17, 7e0 years after Pome, when he wa3 HO years 10 months and 22 days old. The date on which he commenced his career fell in the fifteenth year of the Emperor Tiberius, and in the forty-sixth year after the building of Herod's temple. This is in accordance with t. Luke iiL, 1, and St. John ii.. 20. According to Josephus ("Antiquities," xv., 11, lj the construction of Herod's temple was commenced in the eighteenth year of that monarch, or in the year 734 after the founding of Pome, in the month of October, if we add the forty-six years which elapsed after the building of the temple we arrive at the end of the year 70, during which Jesus entered on his career." The professor next figures out his birth as the 25th of Ieciuber of the 74Uth year after the founding of Pome, and that he died on the 7th of April, 73, of the Poman era that is to say, on the Friday before passover. He contends "that it has been ascertained by exact calculation that passover fell that year on the 7th of April, 7H3; and as the latter year was a Jewish leap year, and consisted, accordingly, of thirteen months. His public career lasted two years and seven months. Pet ween the 17th of November, 780, and the Mh of April, 783, three passovers were celebrated viz. : 781, 782, 783. Those years correspond with the 27th, 2sth, 20th and 3oth of the Christian era as at present calculated. Remembering, however, that the year of the birth of Jesus corresponds with the year 749 of the Roman era, and taking this year as the starting point of the Christian reckoning, the years of Jesus career must be the 31st, SJ2L 83d, and 31th of the new era." It thus results, according to Professor Sattler, that the Christian record is at fanlt by W yers,Kid thatire OM iSw and not in 1885. Practical Use of Tears. Scientific Journal. The utility of tears to animals in general, and particularly to those which are exposed much to the dust, such as birds which live amidst the wind, is easy to understand; the eye would soon be dirtied and blocked up had not nature provided this friendly, ever flowing stream to wash and refresh it. A very little fluid is necessary to keep the eye always clean; bat here again we must admire the wondrous mechanism which works the human body, for it is to be observed that when, through some accident or hurt, the eyeball has need of more water than usual to cleanse it, nature at once turns on a more abundant supply of tears. Hardy Varieties of Tea. New Orleans Times-Demoerat.J The Ita!ian government have made repeated efforts to grow tea in the zone between Florence, Naples, and Sicily, but have, so far uniformly failed. Now, however, it is claimed that a mistake has been made heretofore in thinking the tea-plant required shade, whereas in China and Japan it is grown in very open and exposed places, and in a soil containing a large proportion of sand and oxide of iron. An agent of the Italian government is now in Japan buying exclusively of the hardier varieties of plants, and determined efforts are to be made to secure its successful cultivation in southern Italy. Karal Music In France. f Brooklyn Eagle The French will not danee to bad music. If they eat potatoes and salt all the week and drink water without wine from Faster Monday of one year to liood Friday of the next, they will have good music. Those who have traveled in the French provinces must have often been astonished with the excellence of mere village bands, and at the perfect acquaintance with the best and newest pieces of the musicians at village fetes. Nothing of a popular character in music escapes them; and the villagers hum a new air in the provinces a very few days after it is knowrin Paris. Good Advice to Slangy Girl 4. (T-ittle Rock Oaxett.l If young ladies, who, through association with young tnen whose limited education and poverty of ideas compel the use of slang into lien of correct expressions, comprehended the meaning of many of the terms thus put in their innocent months, they would be shocked at the vulgarity their companions. Almost without exception words and phrases popularly denominated "slang2 are drawn from the slums: they are the invention of the most depraved elements of human society, and should be avoided by all persons with any pretensions to refinement and gentility. Torture la I'.arly Times. Boston Budget, In general, torture was seldom practiced in their early history by the nations where jory trial prevailed and evidence vw open, and where Roman law had little or no influence. In the I anish and Swedish codes, from the fifteenth to the end of the sixteenth centuries, when this cruel process was so common in Europe, it is not mentioned. It does, however, appear very early in the Icelandic code, but seems afterwards to have fallen into disuse.

A LITTLE LIGHT ON 1 OF ITS M AN U FACT wt The Beat Salt Works la the World Solar f'.vaporatioa of Sea WaterWest India and Rock Salt Wielleaka i Boston Budget. "Salt is such a common thing, " said an importer to a reporter, "so easily obtained and so cheap that curiosity is seldom aroused concerning the details of its man ufacture or the places where It is louno. A great many take it for granted that table salt is produced by crushing oral nary coarse salt Some think, again, that salt'of everv description is mined from the rock, after the manner of metals. Poth of these ideas are error eous, and purely imaginative. They are simply the result of guessing at what people do not care to trouble themselves to inquire after. " Perhaps you are willing to throw some light on the subject, " suggested the reoorter. " Fine salt, such as is used in preserving and flavoring butter and cheese, for curing meats and for the table, is made from pure trine, found in immense quantities in several parts of the world. Probably the best known salt works are those of Cheshire, near Livexool. and of Syracuse. In both of these districts the process ol manufacture, while differing somewhat in detail, is essentially the same. The brine, found from 150 to 4O0 feet below the surface, is pumped into vats or cis terns, from which it passes by different stages into large iron pans. Here the water is evaporated by boiling, and the crystals of salt are Iormea. I he re siduum is drawn off into moulds, which are sub ected to a high temperature in ovens or drying-rooms. The cakes are then crushed, and the refined product of all this manipulation is ready for the bags and for the market. Frequently the salt it sifted alter crushing to rid it of the coarser particles, which are not easily soluble. " "Is the quality of the products here and in Kngland of equal excellence?" "The Kng'ish salt is undoubtedly su perior to the American. They seem to exercise more care iu their work on the other side, and turn out an article that gives better satisfaction; and when I tell you that the receipts of Knglish fine salt at the port of New York alone, in 1884, were not less than iiOO.OuO sacks, or 30,000 tons, you can form au estimate of the popularity of the foreign article in this country. " "How is coarse salt made?" " By the solar evaporation of sea water. The plnces chosen for its production are selected on account of the extraordinary saline strength of the water there This extreme salmess had been observed in the West Indies and along thecoast and about the islands of the Mediterranean. The water is allowed to run into shallow ponds direct from the ocean, and when a proper depth has been obtained, generally two or three feet, the entrance to the pond is closed ami the water is evaporated by the sun and winds, and a deposit of salt is left. It requires about four months to evaporate three feet of water. The salt is then gathered into piles ready for delivery. Its quality depends almost en tirely upon the caprices of nature. A dry and "windy season will produce large and hard crystals, the most desirable characteristics of coarse salt, while if little wind blows the salt is tine grained and poor. The AVest India salts are from Turk's island. Ragged island, St Martin's and Curacoa. Trapani, Torrevieja, Cadiz and Lisbon each furnish salt of different irrades and quality. There is still an other kfart-of gnWrjteT-TOfc MlWTiw. name describes it It is found in Austria, Russia, Algeria, Ireland, Santo Domingo, England and Louisiana. In AVieliczka, Austria, the rock salt is absolutely pure, an anal3'sis of it showing 100 parts of chloride of sodium. The Louisiana salt is also clear and pure, containing as it does 98. DO per cent, of chloride of sodium. " "Do we compete with foreigners in the so-called 'coarse salts?' " "Not to any appreciable extent Syracuse does turn out solar salt of different grades, corresponding in some degree with that of Turk's-island, but competition is so insignificant that it can hardly be said to exist" "Is salt put to many uses not commonly known?" "It would be impossible for me to enumerate a tenth part of them. We put tine salt in our butter and cheese, preserving and flavoring them; with Curacoa, St Martin's arid other heavy-grained salts that dissolve slowly, we pack meats for export We freeze ice-cream with Turk's island, and salt our car tracks with Lisbon or Cadiz. The household uses foi salt need not be mentioned in detail. The finest salt enters into the preparation of chewing tobacco. Salt imparts a grateful favor to nearly everything we eat Without salt everything is insipid. We have scriptural assurance that salt is good and even Plato is enthusiastic over it when he says iu the "Tim i us, 'Salt, which harmonizes so well in the combinations of the palate, and is, as the law testifies, a substance dear to the goda' " loI lugeraoll'ft Income. New Yorte for. Chicago JournU.l Let us indulge, as to Ingersoll, in a measurement of him by the peculiarly American standard of cash. Has his berating of Christianity yielded a fortune? A man conversant with his affairs estimates It at $ .00,000. more than half of which t.as been giiined through lecturing and the rest by law practice and shrewd investments. He has maintained his family luxuriously, and his purse strings are never tightly tied. It may be said indisputably that his income is larger than that of any clergyman in the United States. The largest salary paid to a pastor is Henry ard Peecher's $20,U0U Rev. Dr. John liall comes next, with $12,000 and a parsonage worth half as much more, besides o00 from Ponner for Ledger articles. Ingersoll s annual income as a lecturer has been over $-10, -O00 and clear. It is doubtful if Peecher. lecture tour and alL nets more than 25,000. A Tfrelve-Foot Straight-Edge. Chicago Hra!d.J An absolutely exact straight-edge of more than thirty six inches is a wonder of mechanism. me of six feet was not recently believed possible, although several hall been made on diilerent plans of web-like and truss construction. It has been claimed, however, that almost absolute exactness has been secured by a straight-edge twelve feet long.

THE PROCESS OF INCINERATION As It trill Be Conducted by a Cremation Company. New York Cor. PiUabunr Dispatch, J Meeting the Rev. J. D. Beugless, president of the United States Crema tion company, the other day, I asked him what progress that concern was making. "We have met wv. considerable delay on account of tm falling of the unfinished walls of our crematorium during a violent storm last winter," he said, "but we are going on. ur building is near the Mount t Mi vet cemetery, in the outskirts of Brooklyn. When finished, it will be a handsome two-story marble structure. The front part will contain the offices, etc A funeral party will pass through to a large hall or chapel in the rear, where the coffin will be placed on a catafalque, and funeral services will be held. While the company are in the chapel and the services going on, the co.tin will Le noiselessly and out of sight lowered through the floor into the basement and incinerated." "What is the process of incineration!" I inquired. "The body is wrapped in a linen cloth coated with alum, laid on a slab of soapstone, and shoved into a retort of fireclay. No fire comes in contact with the body at all. The retort is heated to about 3,000 degrees, and reduces the bodv to ashes without flame or burning."" "How long does it take?" "About thirty minutes to every 100 pounds weight of the corpse. An average man of 150 pounds is reduced to ashes in alout three-quarters of. an hour." "What becomes of the linen cloth?" " , it goes to ashes, too, and mingles with those of the corpse. But it does not make more than a teaspoonful of ashes, and is not worth taking into account. The body makes about three pounds of ashes to every 100 pounds of weight. The ashes are a pale gray in color, dry and light. Of course, if desired, the body could be wrapped in asbestos cloth, which would not be reduced to ashes, thus keeping the ashes of the dead entirely pure." I asked Mr. Pengless what the cost of such a funeral would be. He said it would be less than half, perhaps only one-third, the cost of an ordinary funeral. f course, the cost would vary with the amount, expended on the urn in which the ashes were deposited. Some people would .want the urns of precious metals adorned with gems, but the majority would ' probably select a plain bronze vase. Those who wished would take the urns away with them, to keep in their homes. . But the general rule would be to have them arranged in niches or in shelyes Idong the walls of "mortuary chapdls. r3cTi Wratd bear an epitaph, of course. Kflecta of Cold. Scientific Journal. In the experiments of Coleman and McKendrick, as reported to the Glasgow Philosophical society, a live rabbit survived an hour's exposure to a temperature of 100 degrees below zero.

Intense cold for many hours failed to destroy microscoping 'organisms, whose vitality was simply arrested by freezing, and was resumed when a suitable temperature was restored.

For the benefit ot offering humanity, and In heartfelt graUtuds at the wonderful results, I deem It only my duty to giv this unsolicited tsstimoDy In favor of Swift's Bpeciflo. My wife baa been afflicted with hereditary Eesetua or Bait Kheum from bar infancy ; It has increased in intensity with each aneeeeding spring, and being somewhat skilled in medicine myself, I tried erery remedy I oonld think of for years Barsaparilla combined with every form of Potsssiffi, "Cuticura." pills of every kind, and hundreds of other remedies, lotions and alkali washes of erery known kind, bnt they all gave only temporal y relief. During the apttng of 114 her lower extremities became so Inflamed and sore that she was obliged to keep tbam constantly coated with a eoverlng of 'Poller's Karth." mixed wet and allowed to dry on. Among other things, she was atlltoted with aperiotlioal nervous headache, occurring regularly every seven days, sometimes followed by intermittent fever for weeks at a tune, so that her life became a burden to her. This spring I determined she should take B. B. 8., and follow strictly the directions la regard to dose, dies, etc. This was about seven weeks ago. After taking the first large bottle the disease sseuiod to increase; the burning. Itching and Inflammation becsme unbearable, bba, however, persevered in the nse of the medicine. After taking the second bottle the inflammation began to subside. After the third bottle tha Inflammation disappeared, and sore snots dried up and turned whits and scaly, and finally she brushed them off in an iuipefpaole white powder resembling pore salt, Hhe Is now taking the sixth bottle, three tablespoontals tour times dally. Every appearance of the disease has smooth sgsTu : arsTwhaTiii moM'heV benoatual headaches have disappeared, and she is now, at M years of age, enjoying the only good health she haa known upwards of forty years. No wonder she declares with emphasis that every bottle of H 8. 8. is worth IU weight in gold.
