Wages Rtilc High.
According to figures compiled by
tho xtato Inbdr commissioner tnanu
facturcrs In Nebraska reported fower
omrI6yes In 1012 than 1311 by over
2,000, 32,000,000 less ot capital In
Tested and about $16,000,000 less In
value of products. Two Important
UomB, howevor, show substantial in
creases, wages and the cost of ma
terials to tho manufacturers. The
latter amounted to over $18,000,000
more In 1912 than In 1911, whllo tho
wage bill In 1912 for 20.7C1 em
ployes was nearly $700,000 moro
than In 1911 for 22,886 employes.
Tho-high cost of'llvlne, thereforo,
secrmj'to bo felt by 'the employer as
well as the employe. It will be ad
mitted that as a" rule the wage earner
has to watch the corners closely In
these days of ever-Increasing prices,
but If theso statistics arc at all typi
cal, he is faring tolerably well In Ne
braska. The Bhrlnkagos noted In
.number of employes and capital In
vested aro due In somo measure, ac
cording to official reports, to condi
tions at the big packing, plants,
whoso output naturally feels tho ef
fect of tho high prices restricting
sa!6s. But nothing in any of theso
reports indicates an actual falling
off, for business, Investments and
number of employes were all unusu
ally largo in 1911. "And tho decrease
in numbor of wage earners docs not
mean any dearth, of employment, for
work has been plentiful at good pay

OMAHA, Aug. tt. To the Editor of The
lice: Am glad to see the "Business
Woman" come back, but sorry that she
still clings io her selfish disposition. The
fact that the office people do not ome
to her old In this early closing matter
plainly Indicates that she is alono In her
views. If thO question is, "When Is the
Business Woman to do Her Shopping,"
my answer Is, "tho same as I do and as
the thousands 'Of office folks and others
where early closing Is in effect"
As to the department store clerks being
selfish for not wanting to work three
hours lour or five nights a week for
your accommodation, would state that
you are not giving this phase of tho argu
ment the consideration that even the
ordinary beginner would. Don't you re
alize that It Is not the mere girl, but
thousands of clerks and their families
and friends that you are endeavoring to
Inconvenience for solely your own benefit
Make a canvass amongst your office as
sociates and others and I believe you will
find that the majority Is strongly against
you, that they do their shopping prior to
Baturday, not watting till the last min
ute. Thn.aavlnga bonks and loan asso
ciations ore only a drop in tho bucket
when it comes to naming the offices with
which wo have business.
However, this question was brought up
simply as an argument and might aa well
be dropped. I am decidedly opposed td
nnv pW of business keeping open after
business hoUrs. The department, stores
all have nice drag deportments, as well
as ice cream and soda counters, and as
you say we can or do our shopping during
working hours, the latn hours of the
drug stores cut very little Ice with the av
erage department store clerk.
But you are entirely In the wrong as to
when and where department store clerks
do their shopping. One storo In particular
aiiows its cierKs up to s a. m. to do tneir
I shopping. In this one hour they must open
up for. business, uncovering their mer
chandise, etc., wait on what early trade
comes in ana do tneir shopping, allow
ing about as much time for this purpose
an the "Business Woman" would have
after her important business of lunching.
You are not quite as well posted as you
seem to think you aro on the discount
question, but it won't do to argue this
question In the open press. The only and
real practical solution is for all of us, In
eluding tho "Business Woman," to do
business during business hours, 8 a. m.
to p. m.

THE BARBER, -

I love to have the barber chase
His keen-edged blade across my face.
Go UD one cheek, and down one cheek.
And hook his fingers In my beak,.
pun mini x nearly up.
So he can shave my upper lip;
And hook one finger In ray mouth.
So he can shave tho corner south;
And charge a nickel more, byhecu.
Or else refuse ta shave my neck!
Tho while tho porter shines my sh$es
I love to be told I should use
A hogshead of Old Dopester's Dope
Upon my bald knob. It I hope,.
To help my baldness', when lie knows
That 1 have got. as .baldness, goes.
Enough baldness to help mo through
All of the years I hope to do; - ,
And I Just love- the bay rum spray .
Which fairly eats my faco away!
And then I. love to hear him sigh:
"Boss, shall I comb It wet or dryi'j
The while he runs his wet hand o'er
Where curling tres'se's grew or yon?.
The barber Is a funny bloko 1
And dearly loves his little jOko.
That's why he hands mt all these things
And sprays me with bay rum that stings.
And swats me with a towel hot ' ,
Enough to spoil what face I'vo.got.
Hut, seriously, ho is the man,
Tho barber Is. that's tied tho can
To the unshorn, ail-over.halr, , ,
And fussy mugs men used to wear'
He's put tho kibosh on tha germs
Which spent the old-time heated tehus
In whiskers, and has added bliss
By taking germs out of the kiss;
And I'll not rail, nor yet be sore,
Till he combs my hair pompadour.

Ratae in Glove Duttea Unwarranted.
OMAHA, Aug. 25.-To'.t$e Editor, of Tho
Bee: The tariff reform committee iot th
Reform club of New,', York, for many
years a leading influence In tho demo
cratic tariff reform propaganda, "has just
iDBueu an open letter, to the members ot
the United States senate, in which se
vere criticism is mads of tho "increase
In the senate bill over, the .rate of tluty
fixed by tho house on women's and chil
dren's gloves. Tho 'tariff reform 'com
mittee asks the senators. to accent tne
rata adopted by the house, as It affects'
principally the cheap gloves- which are
necessities of Life. Tho Committee says:
The senate bill (paragraph 173) his In
creased tho rate on women's and Chil
dren's leather gloves -to . per doieh
pairs from W as flxed'by the house. TUU
is on Kloyes not over fourteen YrnBhos
I0."."' w,t.h Proportionate Increases, tot ad
ditional lengths, so that tlieXnalaa in
crease ts SO cents per doxen throughout.
On men's leather gloves there Is an even
greater Increase over the house rates. Tho
rata of $z.G0 on women's and children!
gloves is the rats of the present Payne
Aldrlch tariff on the cheaper grades, and
It ts astonishing to find the senate at
tempting to maintain this rate, especially
In view of the fact that the rate on glovo
leather ts reduced to half of the Payne
Aldrlch rate, that Is from ?0 per cent to
10 per cent. The duties on thread and
other materials are also reduced.
The reduction on glove leather Is equiv
alent to a mlntmunvpf 40 -cents per doxen
pairs of gloves. These reductions on
glove materials' are made for the beiiof it
of the consumers and not as a bonus to
the glove manufacturers. Tet they il!
be such only and of no benefit to the
women and children who wear gloves,
unless the rate on their gloves Is changed
back from I3.C0 to $3 per doxen -as fixed
by tho house. The reduction madn by
the bouse was extremely moderate. Io
leave tha rate at 12. VK as In the senate
bill, would be to giro the manufacturers
even greater protection than they now
have under the Payne-Aldrlch tariff.
tm. nuM h in defiance of all reason.
It would affect the women'a cheap lamb
gloves retailing at from S5 centa to $1 per
pair, an article of popular demand all
over the country, These and other cheap
glov are articles of necessity and not
luxuries.
Wo v.ould bo glad to havo you give pub
licity to this statement, with any com
ment you may see fit to make,

In tbe Juvenile Court.
OMAHA. Aug. To the .Editor of The
Bee: Anent the case in the juvenile court,
referred to In a letter by "M. L,," pub
lished todav:
After you have made up your mind
concerning the menUl attitude of parents
who would cause the arrest ot a boy for
calllmr a gtrl "mamma's Bin, " what ot
a judge who will solemnly sit in hearing
such a case for two hours, ana wno
will require a foster mother to lay bare
a secret she has treasured for years, and
to confess in court that the boy ts but
her adopted son-to destroy forever the
sacred relation that must exist between
a boy and his motherT
Is there a, further depth ot absurdity
awaiting our courts, or la this the abso
lute limit to which a judge can go In
his extra-judicial Inquiry Into family af
fairs that do not concern the public?
The juvenile court conceivably has a
s wssse sa w vr sssss
work. Nerves r moved
without pain. Work guar
an teed ten years.
