WOMEN SHOULD READ NEwsPArERs.-
It is great mistake in female education to
keep young lady's time and attention de-
voted y, only to the fashionable literature OF
yersation, you must give her something
to talk about, give her education in the
actual world and its transpiring events.
Urge her to read the newspapers, and be-
come familiar with the present character
and improvements Of our age. History is
OF some Importance; bat the past world Is
dead; we have nothing to do with 1t, Our
thoughts and our concerns should be for
the present world; to know what it Is aud
improve its condition. Let her have en-
intelligent opinion, and be able to sustain
conversation according to the mental,
moral snd religions improvement of our
times.
