depend as much on his wife as on HIM
self? A man married but not mated
cannot achieve the full. rounded. per-
feet success that is possible u him
whose wife is his companion and equal.
Every talent, accomplishment, capabil-
ity she possesses i SO much capital
for her in tie marriage partnership,
and many a woman is compelled TO
draw on this capital for resources
during her husbands life and to de-
pend upon it entirely in the event OF
his death.
II girls were trained TO depend upon
themselves for support. and were not
socially compelled into ineligible mar
riages, the number of unhappy mis-
called homes would be greatly dimin-
ished. Ii girls were permitted TO choose
their professions and occupations as
boys are. and aided in doing so rs many
BOYS are, the title of "old maids
would soon cease 10 be any more Of a
! stigma than that of "old bachelor is.
And the number of purposeless, NOR
bid, sickly. sour, selfish women would
be vastly diminished. Nohuman being
a remain normally healthful and yet
live a purposeless. idle. ~unoccupied
life. Our girls should be encouraged
and aided to be and to do whatever
their native instincts and talents qualify
them to do. The young woman who
aspires to a position in the art world
should have every facility given her for
attaining it. She who espouses litera-
ture should be encouraged to devote
herself ( o literature. And women who
have courage and perseverance and
faith i'm themselves are well worth help
inc because they will not rest till the
goal of their ambition is won. no matter
what difficulties or discouragements
stand in the way.
As cases directly i'm point w give two

way and the wrong way Of treating up

had a passion for modelling, and that
she and her husband were disposed.
subject to our advice, to aid their
daughters high ambition. The case as
stated was clearly promising and orders
were sent to this city for models and
primary instructions. The next year
the daughter was ready for New York,
and entered q studio here where she
has done such good work that her mas

"She has a great deal of talent, and il
she progresses as she did last season
will make her mark"
Another daughter of Western parents,
and of the same age. has for years
cherished honorable aspirations toward
the profession Of literature, but her pa
rents, amply well-tO-do. insist that she
shall enter Immediately OF the life of
q teacher. and make good ut once the
investments they have made in her i'm
perfect education. 1t matters not that
the peculiar strains of the schoolroom
make her an invalid for months after
leaving it. or that the whole bent of her
mind is in another direction. They
will neither give her time nor sympathy
in her chosen vocation. Is this wise.
Just, reasonable? But even they are
wiser than another parent who wouldn't
let his daughters after they left school
do anything toward making themselves
an occupation. toward choosing a life
work, even toward perfecting the edu-
cation they had received, but has left
them purposeless, objectless and love-
less. II a girl is poor she needs of all
things TO be aided to do what she can
do best. and at the same time be hap
piest in doing. Ii she is rich she must
have an object to devote herself to and
bestow herself upon, or she becomes
morbid. spiritless, selfish and inane.-
