THE YODNtt MAN'S AGE DEMAND FOR YOUTH IN EDUCA TION AND BUSINESS. An Unbiased View of the Eeally Kc- rnarkable Movement that Is Now Taking Place - Problems Which Its lixibtence Brine Into Being. Two very remarkable movements are discernible in the business and the edu cation of the times ; and yet , when we come to examine them , we u'ud that the tendencies have been clearly in view for more than u decade. Six years ago the present writer went to the presi dent of one of the large corporations of this country and asked him to give em ployment to a man who had turned his forty-eighth year. There were personal reasons why he should grant such a re quest , and the person for whom the place was sought was entirely accept able in character , ability and health. The president replied : "I want to do this , but it is impossible. The age of the young man is crowding upon mod ern business so fast that he will soon monopolize it. We take no one wno has passed 40 we cannot afford to do It But 1 will tell you what 1 will do. If this man has a son anywhere from 15 to 25 years old I'll find a posi tion for him at once. " So far has fhis tendency already gone that the prob lem of getting rid of employes above .1 certain age is now under discussion , and so great has been the uneasiness that several of the large concerns have Issued statements that the old men will not be discharged. At the same time practically all of them are taking on only young men , and the demsuid has made a profound Impression upon the highest colleger 'and ' universities of the country. It has j been shown that if a student goes through all the courses to the post-grad uate > peeiili-/.atJi > iis be is about 30 be fore he gets into artive lilV and mod ern business need * him at least live years before that time. It is not a mere sentiment but a real conviction which contends that the years lost from work between 20 and 30 are in a measure Btolen from the lives of the students. This may be an extreme view , but many , if not most , of our leaders in in dustry and In the professions believe 5t Is true. That there will come a change a compromise , perhaps seems to be one of the certainties of the near fu ture. Along with the increasing hold of the young men comes the problem of car ing for those who have passed Into what is sweepingly called old age. It is not fair to set limits on any individual. So long as he is able to do his work und do It acceptably he is entitled to every opportunity and advantage. We do not refer , of course , to the old men of signal ability and success , for the grave is the only stop to their energies aud usefulness , and It would be easy to till many columns with names of those who are past 70 who are holding their own with the be t thai the vouug- er generations can show. Hut there is an army of millions of wrinkled and white-haired veterans who have tolled faithfully and well all their lives , and upon whom others are dependent Their welfare brings into prominence the sysem of old-age pensions which has been pursued in Germany more successfully than anywhere else , and 'which ' has been introduced by several j of the important corporations In the I United Stales. This may be the solu- jtiou of the other end of the problem , j while the young men keep on crowding Into the oflices and workshops and ac- 1 iromplishlng the great things of an ad vancing civilization by their skill , quickness and enthusiasm. Saturday Evening Post UTAH HAS A MODEL TOWN. Mormons Claim Only Successful Ex periment iu Local Government. There is one town in the United States whose inhabitants do not hun ger for the tlesh pots of other commu nities laying claim to a higher degree of culture. The place is named Vernal. ! and It is situated not far from the res- ervution of Uintah Indians in Utah. One of its attractions is that there bus never been any local tax levied on the i townspeople , for the reason that the sensible system of city government ! provides a perfectly adequate income without the necessity of taxation. Nothing is given away by the city gov ernment of Vernal. If any franchises or privileges are desired they must he paid for and paid for at their full vaiue. Saloons are looked upon as : i luxury that can be dispensed with , but as the town is not a total abstinence commu nity the saloons are allowed to exist by the payment of a large fee to the treasury. Crime is taxed to the utmost Fines rather than imprisonment are the pun ishment for evildoers. Instead of a pris- oner being supported for a term at thv. ' expense of the city he is mulcted in a Kiim deemed commensurate with the 'enormity of the offense and the money goes to the town's exchequer. In this way the burden of the city's expenses is placed on the shoulders of those who .deserve to be made to bear it , and the well-behaved , citizen instead of suffer ing by the action of the wrongdoer In being compelled to support him in jail actually beueiits by his wrongdoing in the absence of taxation. So proud are the citizens of Vernal of their model town that the city otti- cials almost invariably turn back into the treasury the amounts received for salary. The only man who is really paid .by the towii for bis work Is the city marshal , who devotes his whole time to the duties of his office. As might be expected , the town i spleacUdl ? laid out , possessing miles f asphalted streets , one of the finest school buildings in the West and ample means for the building of more as they are needed. No breath of suspicion has ever been directed at the officials of the town. Their action In refusing to re ceive salaries might in itself divert any suspicion of "boodling. " The town numbers about 4.UOO persons , and as its adimrable sytem of government is at tracting numbers to take up their resi dence there it is probable that It will emerge from comparative obscurity during the next few years and become one of the most important cities of the West WIVES AND BEATINGS. Women Discuss the Amount of Abuse Their Sex Should Endure. "How much beating should a wife bear before she made up her mind to leave nor husband ? " was one of the main subjects discussed to-day at the women's conference of the In-His- Narne Society In All Souls' Church , at Madison avenue and GGth street In the opinion of Mrs. Louise Seymour Houghton , editor of a religious news paper , the wife should submit rather than leave her husband to be at the mercy of bad influences. Mrs. Houston said that although there were times in the present state of society when a divorce seemed neces sary , a higher and more ideal state would make such a thing impossible. She called attention to the stormy do mestic life of the prophet Hosea , in order to show to what extent one part ner should bear with the indiscretions and the sins of the othor. The sentiments produced a sensation , and there was a murmur of dissent One of those present asked if the woman injured by an intoxicated hus band should remain with him. Mrs. Houghtou said that she had known many noble wives and mothers whose husbands had beaten them every Satur day night. The speaker said that It would be better for the family if the injured wife bad the grace and the strength of mind , and. above all , the love for her husband , to hold to her family relations. Mrs. Elizabeth B. Grannis suggested that such treatment of a wife on the part of a husband was degrading to the marriage relation. Mrs. Houghton an swered that one soul could not degrade another without that soul's consent She said that she had known in the lower walks of life of husbands who had beaten and ill-treated their wives , and that after all , they had come around all right : whereas , if the wives had left their lords and masters , the men might have gone irretrievably to the bad. "What I wish to ask. " aiid Mrs. Ar thur Smith , "is , how long should a wife submit to beating before she leaves her husband ? " "Mrs. Houghton , if 1 understand her correctly , " replied Mrs. Grauuis. "said there was no limit Now , there was John Wesley , whose wife dragged him around the house by the hair of hla head. It seems to me that It would have been more dignified had he resented It" New York Correspondence Baltimore Sun. An Obliging Caller. When Monsieur Clenieuceau wna in the French Chamber of Deputies , he became , for some reason , the idol of the working man ; but his popularity , according to the course of nature , brought its penalties. He was besieg ed by all sorts of people , who came merely to ask questions , and sometimes they were questions of the most trivial .sort He was originally a doctor , and used to give advice for nothing at certain hours of the day. One morning a working man entered his room , and Clemenceau said , without looking up from his writing : "Take off your coat and shirt I'll attend to you directly. " Three minutes later he found the man had stripped to the waist "There .is nothipg the matter with you. " said the doctor , when he had made an examination. " 1 know there isn't ! " returned the man. "Then what did you come for ? " "To consult you on a political ques tion. " "But what did you strip for ? " "I thought you wonted an Illustra tion of the emaciated body of the man who lives by the sweat of his brow. " The political question remained un answered. Monsieur Clemenceau was too exasperated to do more than tell the man to dress and go home. Prom Ttmmlmivk to Shoe-Brush. Sitting Hull's eledst son is a boot black.

Most of these pr.u- ; cess dresses will be of handsome materials , , very sheer , J usually over silk of the same shade , or j of a color to contrast. Knife pleated flounces , tucking , smocking , shirring and i free trimming with lace and ribbon enter into their make-up. Bodices have a ' pleated or tucked yoke of chiffon or silk ! mull or a yoke of all-over embroidery or j lace. White broadcloth beautifully sten- cilled out is a much liked material for ! NEW STYLES IN PLAIDS AND CLEAR WHITE. princess gowns. A handsome model s was ivory white broadcloth , skirt and bodice handsomely stencilled and 'U- lined with very fine silk cord and 5l' > sx The yoke was tucked white chiffon , sleeve puffa matching , and the crushed belt was pale blue velvet ribbon. Such a gown may be used for dressy occasions and is expensive. Silk crepe de chine , both plain and self-figured , is liked for this style of gown. One example of its use appears in to-day's small picture. Here white silk crepe de chine was fin ished with tucking and pleating , and trim- I med with cream lace , tucked white < > hifS fon and black velvet ribbon. Among the many diiuiticorgandie - to be more generallyworn tbnu plaids will be. The cheeks usually .ire of taffeta or Lonisine silk , and anii uli up in shirt waist costumes. doparli : skirts or separate bodices. Dust cloiKi made of such material are trimmed MJtt bands of crimson velvet.

That's the samf to an ambitious woman as no tjowu at all , so stylish white dresses often arc rarely complex , and usuallj show plainly rhe results of much v.oi'k and outlay.

TO all but fair complexion- * . A n niceable point about a brand new form of blouse bodice is that at the back it falls over a medium wide belt , the fullness not as pronounced as in front. This is the cut to have when the mat ] rial is very thin and soft , and the t"i * u * will permit. Another fancy that ha t-ome in with recent models is a la rue , soft bow of black or colored silk diroerly in front at the bust. Hand embroidery , fancy stitches of all sorts and applique work of every description are more in evidence as summer irowns of muslin , linen and veiling come to rhe front. A sini'J' ' muslin can be made to look beau- rifi.inder this treatment. Embroidery. lace and tucks work wonders in this simple fabric , too. Then there are han-i painted silk muslius in anisvieally tim.-d designs made up in the most eliboraie way. Very lovely are some gardeu an-1 lawn party gowns.
