Text Appearing Before Image:
factory, the applicant will beallowed to register his or her name kept in books of record for thatpurpose at The World Employment Office, an advertisement will thenbe admitted to the columns of The World, and the servant will then,and only then, be recommended to a suitable situation. No applicantwill be recommended until such inquiries have been made, excepting inthe case of servants bringing letters of recommendation from recog-nized and settled ministers of any religious denomination. The great-est care will be taken to make sure that the servants whose namesappear on The Worlds register are thoroughly honest and capable,so that employers can engage them without being put to the troubleeven to make inquiries as to their characters. In six weeks from the day on which the EmploymentOffice was opened, ONE THOUSAND AND EIGHTY-SIXEMPLOYERS had been supplied with suitable servants.The Office has become a necessity to housekeepers, andhas been imitated by other newspapers in other cities.
