Show Treatment of Factory Hands. Superintendents of factories would do well to regard attentively the regime which exists in a wool spinning mill in Norway. All the unmarried hands, both male and female, are engaged for a fixed yearly salary, and get board and lodging at the works. There is a large kitchen and a large dining room, where the employer em-ployer and employed dine together. Tho owner's wife herself superintends the cooking. The bedrooms and the other apartments are roomy aud well ventilated; venti-lated; the women Bleep in one end of the building aud the men in the other. They all look healthy and fresh, and very unlike un-like ordinary factory hands. New York Commercial Advertiser, |
