ACHING MILLINERY
millinery is a thriving busi
ness, The demand for milliners to go
from house to house and work by the
day or hour at rates which economical
folks can afford to pay is at present
greater than the supply. Several millia
ery schools run by modistes who origin
ally learned their trade abroad have
pupils. The girls who learn

to live in America they do not like to die
here and have a horror of being burted
away from the resting places of their ane

Francisco, has taken advantage of this
feeling in his countrymen, and does a
lerge business in collecting the remains
of his defunct countrymen and shipping
them for burial in their native soil. For
this end he visits all the principal cities
of the country and has penctrated even
to the mining camps where Chinese are
employed. He says that the has shi Ia
