arrival upon the domestic scene I was
reminded of old Mary tho other day by
I setting a woman walking briskly under a
heavy sack of rags It was sunny I was
strolling insensibly and tollowed her Sho
i entered a warehouse heaped with p'lcklngs
I of alt kinds altei hesitating a moment I
did the sumo Things seemed novel, so
when the proprietoi looked at me in rather
a surprised manner I explained I'd like to
add to my slim stock ot iiilormaliun re
guiding rugs and rue, pickers Whereat
tlieclnik Inipilteil interestedly 'Are you
tho woman who writes' and a nig peddler
who had just dropped in leaned up against
the with and gaeil at me tixedly and with
hi lie li the same ex nressioii as he would
wear lu viewing a I leak in tho dlino

Oh It's a great business " ho remnrked
-I mean the proprietor as he glanced
over hoiiiu letters helore conducting mo
ovei the establishment, 'if it weren't for
rags there would be no paper you would
have no liiblu. no romance no love let
ters " be added In iiiltea courtly manner
Ot all tlio queer places that warehouse!
I clambered over the loot hills of rags,
sepaialed by valleys rich with old iron,
zinc sheets, lend piping brass, wire, and
my eyo rested upon Arctic mountains in
the background perhaps I should say
mountains ot arctics It seemed I touched
rudely upon professional pride when 1
uskisl ii '.o.i i immen-e hulk and tho many
h.i.e.- lot shipping weie brought In by rag
pickers I was informed that rag pickers
are those that go about thu streets and
alleys or beg rags which thoy usually bell
to small merchants Then there are rag
poddteri who own wagons and go about
among houses buying what thoy wish;
merchants buying from both these classes,
and Inmselt buying mostly trotn them
I asked tho proprietor what under tho
canopy tie does with all this truck, and
was told he had contracts with largo fac
tories ah over tho country Old metals
aro returned to touudries paper and rugs
to apei mills and also rones which are
used lor uianilla paper vinegar and oil

to brewers etc.. new cloth rags from
tailors back to cloth lactones, and rubber,
gums' as the Angloumniacs term them,
to tho lactory lu Massachusetts
That pllo of rubbers and arctics reach
lug to tho ceiling did look odd There
were tiny baby arctics and largo scows
stranded side by side, those exasperating
run down at the heel rubbers which peo
ple had lost in the street and plenty which
had sprung a leak ami been abandoned.
