NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, MAY 8, 1914. NOT ENOUGH OF THESE SINGLE - SUIT ENDS TO MAKE A SUIT FOR - EVERY MAN WHO READS THIS But there are enough of them to keep our force of cutters very busy during the next five or six weeks if we are to close them all out, and this is what we aim to do. Come here tonight or tomorrow or next week and select any single suiting or from any of our regular $15, $18, $20 woolens and our price will be _ $10 FOR A SUIT OR TOPCOAT TO YOUR MEASURE Last week we cleaned up the surplus of New Haven’s largest woolen jobbing house. This stock was an accumulation of goods gotten ready for shipment to various high priced tailors who have made cancellations owing.to the existing business depression and their refusal to accept the goods, left them on the hands of the woolen house. The price tempted us and we bought them, included were a large number of single suit lengths. As it is the custom among the high priced tailors to buy woolens on that basis in view of the fact that our regular stock contains quite a heavy proportion of short lengths we feel that it would be inadvisable to allow them to increase, for that reason we are placing the eatire stock on a reduction sale scale of prices during the next ten days and' want to make it the occasion for adding new names to our list of customers, the longest list by far of any tailor in New Britain.

Very few meon are found behind the 1 in the saloons throughout the ingdom, except proprietors. 000 barmaids in Eng- “latd alone. Frequent crusades have “%cen started with the purpose of elim- inating women, and particularly girls, from this vocation but nothing last- ing has been accomplished. Ome rexson is that the saloon is the work- gman’s club, and he prefers those ces where he can gossip with the: irls. On the whole the influence of barmaids is to raise the atmo- sphere of saloons, but the influence of the suloons upon the women fis considered bad. » Streets Only Course. “The barmaid soon grows old,” ys the report. ‘Sometimes she is at 25; she is generally too old at irty: Her chances of marriage re small unless she marries the bar- Sipan or the manager and almost the oniy recourse left to her is the streets. The number of women on the Lon- don streets who have once been bar- riids is out of all proportion to the | rumbers in the trade. srs. Drake writes sympathetically ‘an of robust health and tempera- runt, who iinds in the public-house a certain vocation. The bar is to other women immediate ruin. Fears for Future. “But all these are exceptions. The iarmaid who is cf ‘the majority, al- thi ugh she loses nothing of self-re- stect, yet continues at her post only in weariness and loathing, and with a great fear in her heart of that wlich the future is to bring.” "Vages for barmaids are no more than domestic servants command in the United States and the average working day is fourteen hours. In houses patronized by workingmen the ' average pay is $2.50 to $3 a week; in hotels it may rise to $3.50, and for a head barmaid to $4.50 or even $5.

She | seldom adoyp's the career as the reo- sult of a false step. The workin man seldom loses his respect for barmaid as a woman worker; it is re- served for the man about town to be without all sense of honor or chiv- alry to women.
