We need more vocations in which edu-
Gated women can work. says the Boston
Globe, without compromising either their
responsibility or their subsistence. There
is a growing demand that professional
and other occupations, now monopolized
by men, should be open to the sex. There
are considerations of natural adaptations
which, in the long run: viii determine
this question in particular empoyments
The moment that educated women make
their mark in any honorable occupation,
more Is done to obviate the evils Ct rely
ing on the chances of marriage for sup
port than any amount Of discussion can
accomplish. Education must be adapted
to the circumstances OF the pupils, and we
trust the time is not far distant when a
false idea Of responsibility will not pre-
vent parents from atiordinG their daugh-
ters such instructions as will fit them for
an honest and honorable independence.

One of our contemporaries publishes
some statistics upon the important subject
of the relative speed in talking, of men
and women. Photographic reports of
speeches and the length they occupy
when printed are the evidence upon which
the statistics are founded, and from this
it appears that forty-five minute lecture
recently delivered by Mrs. Burnham fill
ed three and one-half columns OF the St.

But his ship was never heard from, and
doubtless foundered nj sea, with all on
board. The young husband. as he was
dressing for sea the morning Re left
home, playfully threw pair of stockings
backward over his head, to test some
sailors charm or other, and they chanc-
ing to land on the top Of canopy bed-

died out in her faithful heart during all
the many years Of her lonely pilgrimage.
To the last, whenever door opened, or Il

to her-let us hope and trust that she has
gone to him. BY her desire, she was bu-
