According to statistics o f the London county council there are in London 2,334,450 females, o f whom 710.331 are wage earners. More than h alf a million are unmarried. The occupations fol lowed by these female workers are said to cover the whole range o f em ployment. These statistics are remark uble as showing how large a proportion o f the work done in the w orld’s great est city is carried on by women. The suggestion that the entrance of women into so many lines o f work is to the detriment o f the other sex and o f the industrial situation is plainly falla cious. The enlistment o f the geutler sex in the ranks o f wage earners in creases the aggregate production anu adds greatly to the total wealth o f the world. The drawbacks are not eco nomic, but social. That there should be more than half a million grown women in the city o f London unmar ried and engaged in daily toil does not argue a normal condition o f society. T h e situation may not be so extreme in our American cities, but is rapidly be coming so.—Atlanta Journal. » . » . W ILLIA M S . P r e s id e n t. u« G ro o m «. An American lady is responsible for a remarkable innovation. She took over to England a number o f women grooms, and now they have become a fad with wealthy English. The espe cial duty o f the feminine groom is to attend her mistress when out on horse back. It is now pointed out that she Is much more desirable In that capacity than a man. She is useful in case o f illness or accident, and she can wait on her mistress in many useful ways. Be sides she servos for com pan}' if the latter feels inclined to talk, while the male attendant must, o f course, be steadfastly ignored. Women grooms do not care for the horses, i f competent they teach their employer to ride, aid ing her to mount and dismount. These positions nre usually held by the daughters o f the riding masters.

Old Tom (than whom there is no more admirable feline In Am erica) iltought he heard u mouse in the eeilur (luring the small hours o f the night. In the commendable pursuit o f said mouse Tom disarranged the regulator of my big incubator. A s luck would have it, the mouse happened to be in close proximity to the big incubator. The cellar was large, but the mouse se letted the vicinity o f the big one for ills operations. There wore three small er Incubators in the cellar, but Mr. Mouse chose the big one by preference. Then, on the other hand, Tom had lived In the same cellar for three years and had caught mice there with exemplary neatness and dispatch and never disar ranged anything except the mouse. It likewise happened that Mr. Mouse and Mr. Tom happened to select the twentieth day of Incubation for the time o f their nocturnal skirmishings. Any other day would have done just ;« well, only they Just happened to se lect that particular time. Result. 200 chickens gone to smash! Luck?

One night the thermometer dropped 10 degrees during the time from sun -et to sunrise*.!!! the month o f June. I happened to have looked at them after supper, and all was well. But (aud of course it was not luck) the lamp smoked and clogged up that night: had worked all right before that and has worked well siuce, but that partic ular night It chose to act ill. H a lf of the flock died, and the rest were stunt ed for life. Luck? Had some especially fine eggs that 1 put under hens that were tried and ap proved mothers; hatched the eggs well and brought out some very fine chicks; put the hens in separate coops in a fiue field of D w arf Essex rape about fifty feet apart. Everything went well until one day one o f tlie hens got out and went over to the other hen’s coop aud began a tight In the scrimmage one chick got killed. There.w ere several chicks that were just ordinarily fine chicks. One was especially fine. He was the one selected for slaughter. Luck?
