THE DOMESTIC EDUCATION OF GIRLS.
By some unaccounable information il
seems to be supposed by many parents,
that girls can be prepared for the peculiar
duty OF their lives, to take charge Of fam
lilies. and give direction to domeslics,
without learning themselves how 70 %
the duties they are to oversee. Three
times day they must see that suitable
provision is brought upon the table for
the family. Often they must provide
this sood themselves. Frequently they
must teach ignorant and careless domes.
tics howto prepareit. And always they
must take the general enPsr;otendence
of the household, that nothing be wasted.
There are very few situations in life
more arduous and responsible. From the
garrett to the cellar, the eye Of the mis-
.ress Of the family must be every where.
Her watchful attention must ever preside
over the drawers of the bureau and the
wardrobe, over all tho perishable meats
and vegetables, that all things may DO
properly preserved and kept in order.--
A pieco Of meat is sent home from the
market. She must tell how it is to DO
cooked. Pies are needed, Puddings are
wanted. Tea and coffee, chocolate and
shells must be prepared. Bro.hs and
gruels must be made. All these things
necessarily devolve uponl the mistress Of
a family. There is ne situation in lite
on which it seems more important that
there should be careful education aud
training. And yet, by the most unparai'
elled folly, there are thousandsof glrles.
