The man who cleans the gut ters can command better wages than women of intelligence and ability can obtain. There are hundreds of women and girls in our cities who are forced to work for a living. Very frequently * r» they are of more than ordinary educa tion and intelligence, yet they can rarely make it avail them. It is not, after all, greatly to be wondered at that so many young women fall by the wayside. Their position is one of great danger, and only the possession of sound moral principles can carry them through with safety, They have to fight single handed against a host of foes. There is a prejudice against em ploying them in positions for which they are best fitted. They are paid much less wages than men, but their | board bills are just as high. They j must dress at least decently, and that cannot be done without money. They are compelled to live in more expen sive places than men, because a man can live anywhere without affecting his reputation, whilst a woman has to exercise the greatest discretion in this respect. So of employment, a man can do anything on a push, without hurting his future, but fora woman to j do certain work, though it be honest work, honestly done, would injure her entire future prospect. At every step she is surrounded by temptations to exchange her life of weary work and worry for one, the dazzle of which in the present perhaps hides the certain misery which lies in the future.— Er- ehamje. I How H ot I ron M ay be H andled . —About the year 18(19, one Lionette, a Spaniard, astonished not only the ignorant, but chemists and other men of science by the impunity with which he handled red hot iron and molten lead, drank boiling oil, and performed other feats equally miraculous. While he was at Naples he attracted the at tention of Professor Sementem, who narrowly watched all his operations, and endeavored to discover his secret. Sementem’s efforts, after performing several experiments upon himself, were finally crowned with success. He found that by friction with sul phuric acid diluted with water, the skin might be made insensible to the action of the heat of red hot iron ; a solution of alum, evaporated until it becomes spongy, appeared to t»e still more effectual. After having rubbed the parts, which were rendered in some incombustible, with hard soap, he discovered on the application of hot iron that their insensibility was in creased. lie then determined on again rubbing the parts with soap, and after this found that the hot iron not only occasioned no pain, but that it did not actually burn the hair. Being thus far satisfied, the professor applied hard soap to his tongue until it became insensible to the heat of the iron ; and after having placed an ointment com posed of soap mixed with a solution of alum upon it, Ixuled oil did not burn it. While the oil remained on his tongue, a slight hissing was heard, similar to that of hot iron, when thrust into water, the oil soon cooled, and was then swallowed without danger. Several scientific men have since suc cessfully repeated the experiment of Professor Sementem. W illiam B righam , owner of the noted race horse “Foster,” writes a letter to the Dalles Mountaineer, in S nake -C harmers at B enares .— which he says : “Foster hurt his foot One moaning two snake-charmers called at the Washington County Fair last at the hotel.
