Explanation
The large figures at the top of the columns show the rate per week, while the smaller figures indicate the amount per hour or per day. Thus If it is desired to find the amount per hour when working for $8.00 per week, we commence with the figure 1, in the left hand column under the head of "hours,"and trace towards the right till we reach the column headed by $8.00, where we find 13 1/3 cents, the equivalent of one hour's labor at $8.00 per week. In like manner we find the price of several hours, one day, or several days. .
To find wages at $13. $14, $15, $16, or more, per week, find the amount at $6.50, $7, $7.50, $8, etc., and multiply by 2.
