There are three contests among the pretty girls of Vienna, for in» prize of 'beauty every year, says the San Francisco Argonsut. The first. held on the summit of Mount Kahlenberg. takes place on St. Anne's Day, and is attended by all the notables of the city, including foreign Ambassa- dors. Every visitor, on paying a coin equivalent to about lilconis. receivesa ticket which entitles him to record one vote for the lady whom he deems the mist beautiful. It used to be open to ,. ,th!‘ lair ones to courses for Hit-insolves, 1 and many of the meet enterprising would , boldly address a perfect simngi-r, and. with‘a winning smile inquire whether he did not consider her wort h a vote; where- upon he would gullanlly offer his ticket. This year. however. that practice has been stopped, and the utmost that a pret— ty candidate is allowed to do is to appoint a male oanvnsser to ask you “but o‘i-ioek it is or at what time ilu- voles will in: . counted.

Hind you, they are not grumb g about the condition at slain as ht about by a Democratic con» greee, or they have no politics and know 0 such creed as protection. But what they are dissatisfied with is the fact. and not theory, that there is an employment for them today as there should be at this season of the year. and the outlook of a dull winter is not encouraging. In a college I have in mind that graduated 25 full fledged nurses in the class of ’94 there are to- day but eight of this number that are busy, and those who are more experi enced are no better off. Why doctors and nur‘ses should snfler from hard times may not appear imme diately, but let us see how it is and when it is that these two very impor- tant classes of people are busy. A doo- tor is a necessity, and a nurse is a lo:- ury, so while a physician may have just as many cases in hard times as in good times his percentage of receipts is greatly decreased and the number of charity patients increased. In the case of a nurse, however, the result is vast- ly dillerent. A person who is ill and in need of nursing will not incur the ex- pense of a trained nurse so long as the income of the family is reduced or lim- ited, and though many may need the offices of one they depend upon the al- tention of some other member of the family to look after them. It has been shown that during the first six months of the year wages had been reduced on an average of 45 per in 1892. I! we take this percentage and apply it to one family. what are the results? Why. it means just 45 per cent less to be expended on luxuries and the limited use of necessities. As lhuve stated before, a trained nurse is un- doubtedly a luxury. and, no matter how great the need. the mother of the house- hold Wonld be the last to expend for a luxury what would deprive the rest of her family of necessities. In good times sbp would be glad of the care given her by .n nurse, but when it means that her children or husband would have less to out or fewer clothes she would reject all thoughts of a trained nurse. When one considers the evil effects of a free trade tariff, he is apt only to think of how much the manufacturer will lose. It never occurs to the enemy of the wage corner. or if it does he shuts his eyes to the fact, that he is not only of- fecting the business of the nimlufaoturer, but is reducing the wages of the em- ployee. and thereby causing him to en- durc the privniions and hardships which poverty alone can bring. As for those dependent upon the demands of the wage corner and whofurnish the supply for his needs. they are not brought into the question. So it is today. with the clients of a free trade lurid about us on all sides in heretofore protected indus tries.
