Stunned and helpless she sank; she came to the surfuce again, but limp and lifeless Ina was a superb swimmer, for she had been brought up in a seaport | town. She was soon in the water.

The clalm so often made that girls department stores do not require . living wage, because they are living «t home, has been punctured again v an interesting research made by lontreal young women, says the Sur- vey. An association of department tore girls organized for semi-religions mnd semi-educational purposes, con- lueted an investigation for the child velfare exhibition now in progress n Montreal. They secured respongl- hle young women in each of the stores to make the rounds of their associations. The questionnalre was of the briefest possible kind, prepared by the director of the child welfare exhibition and adapted to amateurs. The result showed that out of the 24N stores in the city: Seven per cent. were the sole mv port of their family. Sixty per cent. were alding in the family support. Thirty per cent. were living .lono 'and supporting themselves. Three per cent. tribution to the finances of the home.
