THE CONSUMERS' LEAGUE.
What a Sensible Woman's Organization
Is Iolng for Shop Girl.
A little over a year ago a mass meeting
was held at Cbickering ball under the
auspices ot the Working Women's society
for the purpose of establishing what is now
k,nown as the Consumers' league, an or
ganization declaring its object to be "to
ameliorate the condition of the women and
children employed in the retail mercantile
houses of this city by patronizing so far as
practicable only such houses as approach
in the"ir conditions' to the 'standard of a
fair house' as adopted by the league, and
by other methods."
The principal officers of the league are
Mrs. Charles Russell Lowell, president;
Mrs. Charles S. Spofford, treasurer; Miss
Caldwell-, recordiug secretary, and Mrs.
Jtobert V. McKim, corresponding secre
tary: and these women have succeeded
during their twelve months of office in ren
dering very efficient aid to women em
ployed in shops.
For a time it was up hill work; first, to
induce employers to believe that they were
treating their employes badly, and then to
elicit from them a promise to change their
methods; but business men are not unjust
and hard hearted, and one by one they are
gradually showing their willingness to see
the matter in the right light.
Besides, a large number of womeu in
New York who do much shopping have
put their shoulders to the wheel in order
to force out ot existence this form of op
pression to shop employes, and this action
bus even more weight with the shc .iui i,,
irrnnge as it may seem, than has the 1
side of the question the awakening to the
tense of injustice.
The names of a few of the firms were to
be had at once, and these were issued by
the Consumers' league in the shape of a
'white list" for the benefit of the shoppers
interested in the reform. This list is being
added to each month, and it is hoped iu the
end that all the retail establishments will
fcign the paper.
The standard of a "fair house" is "One in
which equal pay is giveu for work of equal
value, irrespective of sex; in the depart
ments where women only are employed,
in which the minimum wages are six
dollars per week for experienced adult
workers, but fall in few instances be
low eight dollars; in which wages are
paid by the week; in .which fines, if im
posed, are paid into u fund for the benefit
of the employes; in which the minimum
wages of cash girls are two dollars per
week, with the same conditions regarding
weekly payments and fines; in which.1
the hours from 8 a. ni. to 6 p. m. (with
three-quurters of an hour for lunch) con
stitute n working day, and a general
half holiday is giveu on one day of each
week during at least two summer months;
in which a vacat ion of not less than one
week is giveu with pay during the summer
season; iu which all overtime is compensat
ed for; in which work, lunch and retiring
rooms are apart from one another, and con
form in all respects to the present sanitary
laws; iu which the present law regarding
the providing of seats for saleswomen is
observed and the use of seats permitted;
in which humane and considerate be
havior toward employes is the rule; in
which fidelity and length of service meet
with consideration which is their due; in
which no children under fourteen years of
ace are employed."
No one who reads these rules will find
anything unreasonable in them. On the
contrary, even the woman who has borne
resentment in her heart toward this or that
clerk because of having been treated by
ker withindifference or disrespect will not
wish her to be cared for in a less humane
manner than this paper demands.
In the constitution adopted by the Con
eumers'Jeague the condition of member
ship is the approval by signature of the ob
ject of the league, all persons being eligi
ble excepting suclf as are engaged in the
retail business iu Xew York. New York

Self Respent.
"The way to keep a man out of the mud
is to black his boots," says Frederick Dong
lass. This happy remark often occurs to us
when we see boys going to school with
shoes that have never once known the
brash, with hair uncombed, faces not too
tjlean, ears unfit for inspection, hauds very
Wack, aud a cap that has evidently known
hard service ns a missile weapon. Such a
boy is more likely at least both to talk and
to act unbecomingly than one who is clean
MKltmy. Something withiu the tidy boy
xMttpels him to live up to his appearance.
The other boy is apt to live down to his
dirty boots. ,
Fixing upou a boy an odious and belit
tling nickname which lowers his self es
teem has the same tendency. So does
ridiculing him for any natural defect, and
for the clumsiness which often results
feoan such a defect. The mistakes of youth
frequently result from shyness, and this is
greatly aggravated by the jeers of com pa n
: ions, and still more by the impatience of a
"teacher.
Many a person now honored aud es
teemed in the world date? his progress up
ward from the moment when he received
from some honored lips a word of encour
agement or discovered by chance that he
was not inferior to his comrades, despite
appearances to the contraiy.
We can hardly do a more injurious act
than to make another think more meanly
of himself than he ought to think. Hu
mility is an excellent trait, but humility is
a very different thing from the mortifica
tion and self abasement that sometimes re
sult from sneers or ridicu le. Youth's Corn

Jewels of ltoruun Womeu.
The ladies of Rome early imbibed a love
for art and artistic decoration of their per
sons. While in early times their dress was
severely simple, they kept pace with the
tastes of the men, and many ladies of rank

times keenly felt the consequences of their
displeasure or eaprio-. Of course the pat
ronage of women was not directly con
nected with the affairs of the church, for
in its councils women were unknown. The
popes and priests never married, else art

it was. .
Womeu often, however, called the gold
smith's talents into their service for the
creation of splendid gifts in the name of

means for the creation of altar furniture

aries in which they worshiped.
But there was another class of Roman
women. There were beauties in Rome as
well as in other countries, and they were
not less fond of personal adornment and
adulation. Like their sisters of today,
Ihey were not averse to the admiration of
the opposite sex, and they enhanced their
natural charms by all the arts then known.

AN INCIDENT OF CAMP LIFE SPOILS
SUNDRY DINNERS.
How One Regiment Got the Laugh, on m

to Vermonters as Head Cheese.
' Every old soldier of the Army of the
Potomac remembers Burnside's mad
march. It began on Jan. 22, 1863. This
was forty days after his defeat at Fred
ericksburg. In an effort to retrieve it
he followed the example of Charles XII
and opened a winter campaign.' He
tried to strike the Rappahannock some
miles above Fredericksburg:, cross the
river on pontoons and reach Lee's rear.
It began to rain on the evening of the
22d, and it rained incessantly for three
days. The pontoons never reached the
river. They were stuck in seas of mud.
Nearly every man in the army was wet
to the waist for days in efforts to drag
them to dry ground.
The Confederates on the other side of
the Rappahannock quickly divined the
situation. They stuck up immense pla
cards on the bank of the river bearing
such inscription as "Burnside's Army
Stuck in the Mud," "Burnside is not Mc
Clellan,' and other pat sayings. When
the sun began to shine and the pontoons
were dragged from the sloughs the army
went back to its old camp.
Everybody was disheartened. The pen
insula veterans, who were stanch Mc
Clellan men, shook their heads mourn
fully, saying, "I told you how it would
be." The discontent rose to such a pitch
that there was a spirit of mutiny in some
of the regiments. Hundreds of deser
tions occurred every day and the army
had no confidence in its commander un
til Joe Hooker succeeded Burnside.
THE REGIMENTS.
I was a sergeant in Company C of the
Twenty-sixth New Jersey volunteers at
this time. The New Jersey regiment
was part of the Second brigade. This
brigade had won a brilliant reputation
on the Peninsula and at Antietam. It
was known in the Army of the Potomac
as the Vermont brigade. It was com
posed, with the exception of the Jersey
regiment, of Vermont troops.
They were tall, ungainly Yankees.
They drawled their words, and gave
them a peculiar nasal twang. Their feet
were so big that the Johnnies compared
them to old-fashioned griddles.
A Mississippian once told me they were
so big that whenever he killed a Ver
mont Yankee he had to go up and shove
mm over Deiore tie would tumble.
I saw some captured North Carolinians
sent in from the front at the first battle
of Fredericksburg. In stature, gait" and I
ovcui. iiucjr iraoiuuieu me vermonters.
I believe that if they had worn the Fed
eral uniform the Vermonters themselves
would have taken them for brothers.
We went into camp after the mud
march near White Oak church. About
two weeks afterward Bill Young, a big
Scotchman in our regiment, confiscated
a sheep owned by some farmer in the
vicinity. He had found a little copse in
an out of the way nook, where he butch
ered the the sheep hung the carcass to
the limb of a tree by its hind legs and
dressed it. He had hardly finished the
work when he was frightened by a file of
men who were approaching the spot
After hastily concealing the carcass he
sneaked bacK to camp. . 4
Two hours later he returned 'to the
copse. The mutton seemed to be all
right It did not appear to have been
disturbed. He avoided collision with
the camp guard, and managed to get it
to his shelter tent after dark. Then he
cut it np and distributed it among his
friends in the ranks and the commis
sioned officers.
DOO KSSTEAD OF MUTTON.
' Twenty-four hours afterward a Ver
mont regiment, then commanded by
Louis A. Grant, now assistant secretary
of war (and by the way, Redfield Proctor
was a captain in the same regiment),
passed through our camp on picket deA
tail. As they struck company Cs street,
through which they marched down the
bill, they all began to bark like dogs.
The Jerseymen rushed front their tents
and wondered what the barking meant
The Vermonters kept np the canine dem
onstration for half a mile, yelling with
delight.
Commissioned officers who had par
taken of the mutton were the first to
solve the riddle. Some of the cold meat
was left. After the Vermont demonstra
tion it did hot taste like mutton. It was
a little rank, one said, and tasted more
like coon meat that hadn't been par
boiled. Many who had received the gift
were sick at the stomach.
It turned out that some bright Ver
monter had seen Young at work on the
sheep. He rang in his comrades and
frightened the Scotchman back to camp.
Then they stole the carcass, and put in
its place the dressed body of an old New
foundland dog that had been following
a Wisconsin brigade.
When the Vermonters returned from
picket duty and began to cross our camp
the barking was resumed. This time the
Jerseymen were ready for them. From
700 throats came the cry: "Head cheese,
head cheese, you Yankees!"
This cry gave a pallor to tho Vermont
faces. Their stomachs were turned.
While they were on picket duty some
Germans in the Jersey "regiment had
gathered all of the cold roast dog in
camp, turned it into head cheese, and
peddled it on the Vermont picket reserve.
Head cheese was a delicacy rarely seen
in the army. It had gone like hot cakes.
Everybody bought it Possibly even Sec
retary Proctor and General Louis A.
Grant got their share of it At all events
there was no more barking and no more
buying of head cheese on the picket line.

A Ship on Fire at Sea.'
When the Allan line steamship Monte
video arrived in port the officers gave an
account of a thrilling voyage. The Monte
videan left London for this port with 3,000
tons of general cargo. The passage was
an uneventful one until the steamer got a
little eastward of Cape Rayon Wednesday.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon a dense
smoke was noticed coming from No. 5
afterhold. A moment later the cry that
there was a fire in the hold rang through
the ship. All hands were summoned on
deck, even the cook having to take a hand
in the fight for the ship; Captain Fereuson
stood on the bridge, while First Officer
Wright directed the men. The ship's head
was immediately turned to the wind.. The
steam donkey pump, force pump and cat
tle hose were got ready for operation.
Every soul was on deck, including the only
passengers, a few cattlemen.
Orders were given for the opening of the
hatches. The Smoke then poured forth
in dense volumes from the hold and was
permeated by fumes of pepper. Three
streams were directed through' the smoke,
but it was necessary to locate the fire, and
with this end in view the boatswain's mate
was lowered down the hold. Xo sooner
was he in the smoke than it began to suf
focate him, and he was brought up to the
deck. Three times did he venture down.
and the last time he onanaged to reach a
ventilator, where he got a breath of fresh
air.
In locating the fire he was compelled to
come on deck every few moments. ,He dis
covered that the fire had taken in the
lower hold among bales of rags and jute
aud general merchandise. In close prox
imity were a number of barrels of oil, the
outsides of which were already scorched.
Several bales of jute were shifted, and then
the fight proper with the fire legan. Ev
ery mau worked with a will, feeling as if
the safety of the ship and its crew depend
ed on his own individual exertions. It. was
an anxioAs time, and for a while it was
feared that the ship was doomed to de
struction. L'nder the guidance of Captain Ferguson
and Chief Officer Wright, who are said to
have directed everything with perfect com
posure, the fire was eventually mastered,
bat not till aftertwo and a half hours' hard
fighting. Stored in No. 1 hold, the furthest
forward on the ship, were twelve tons of
gunpowder.. Of course, to reach this the
fire would have had to burn throughjseveral
bulkheads. Had it made much more head
way the hold would have been flooded by
letting in the water from the bottom of the
ship, but fortunately this was not neces
sary. Montreal Cor, Toronto Mail. .

In enforcing the postal laws hundreds of
cases are investigated by the postoffice au
thorities which are not brought to the at
tention of the courts, and in which no -punishment
is asked for. There have been
technical infractions of the law, but with
out guilty intention upon the part of the
violators.
Such a case was settled by Mr. George S.
Evans, the postoffice inspector in charge at
1 he Federal building. Nobody was injured
iu the transaction, and the delinquents in
the matter freely acknowledged their grati
tude for the judicious way in which the
case was managed.
One of the largest corporations of Bos
ton lias frequent occasion to send notices
to stockholders and directors and circulars
to customers. They are almost always in
print, and being put in an unsealed .envel
ope require-only a one cent stamp. . .. ; ,
A large lot of notices were sent out a day
or t wo ago. The secretary ordered a suffi
cient number from the printer, and when l
tue lot arrived handed them to a lady
clerk with instructions to1 be sure and
mail them that night to the gentlemen
whose names and addresses were contained
upon a list which 'he furnished her. He
went away before her work was completed.
The lady wrote the directions on all her
en t-elopes, and then began to fold in the
circular letters. She found the printer had
fallen short of the required number, and
that she needed twenty more. She had re
ceived positive orders to get the whole num
ber into the mail that night, and not know
iug the law, or being forgetful of it for the
moment, she wrote out a sufficient number
of notices to fill the bill, folded them into
her envelopes, and, leaving them unsealed,
put a one cent stamp on each, as she had
on all the others.'
By the merest accident oue of the written
documents was discovered by a postoffice
employe, and, as in duty bouud under the
law, he made an examination of the whole
batch and found that twenty of the en
velopes should have had a two cent stamp
letter postage. . .
An attempt to evade postage or defraud
'lie postal revenues is punishable as a
criminal offense under the statutes of the
Cuited States.. The case by necessity was
reported to Mr. Evans anil he made an in
vestigation. f When he discovered that the
facts were as stated here he declined to
make any case for prosecution, and simply
asked that the corporation pay to the- gov
ernment the amount of the postage due

"I-IvImb Up to" a Furniture -Motive.
It is gratifying to observe that day by
day a greater public interest is manifest in
the subject of house decoration. The
manufacturer may care or care not for the
trivial gossip alxmt "tying a bow on a
china dog," or "how best to treat a cottage
window facing the south," but the mere
presence of ,tbis stuff in the daily press
twaddle though it is shows an effort to
cater to the rapidly expauding public taste

It runs somewhat in this fashion: rtI

am afraid you would be annoyed, and I
believe I will not." Of course you say
that you will not be annoyed, and upon
this assurance your friend proceeds to
say: "If you are quite sure you will not
be angry 1 will tell you." Then comes
some unpleasant thing reflecting on your
temper, your tastes or, if there is a flaw
to be found, your habits. Sometimes it
comes in the definite form of an assertion
that you have been guilty of some atroci

tory of the original use of canes in this
country, and finds that they were for
merly a part of the repertory of the lead

principal badge of the deacon. The dea
con's cane was about five feet long, one
end being embellished with a. big knob,
the other with feathers. When the small
boy got too noisy or rebelled against the
powers that were he was given a rap on
the head with the uncharitable end of
the stick. If the head of the family for

use of " off-color " and worthless teas, which,
once under the green cloak, are readily

An eminent authority writes on this sub
ject: "The manipulation of poor teas, to give
them a'finer appearance, is carried on exten
sively. Green teas, being in this country
especially popular, are produced to meet the
demand by coloring cheaper back kinds by
glasing or facing with Prussian blue, tumeric,
gypsum, and indigo. This method is so gen
