devote himself to one chosen calling. When
a woman matrics she realizes that III order to
reach lofty heights in wife and womanhood
she must sacrifice lesser aims. She must be
willing to lay aside the delightful occupations
which have made her girlh6od pleasant; she
must know that from the hour when her baby
Is laid III The cradle, dressed with loving fore
thought, to that darker hour when the mature
man lies down in his last sleep, that she will
give fun meaning to the words Constant

stronger than life or death to those who have
come to her from the great unknown. Wait
a while, girls think over II all before you
promise to become wives-to take the burdens
and duties upon you. Sweet and satisfying
as are the obligations OF wife and mother,
they are not TO be taken lightly. A husband
must not be looked upon as a sort Of perpetual
beau, and children as extremely uncertain
and improbable adjuncts. Unless, like Will

How TO HANDLE MoNEy.-Large savings
invariably originate in small sums, Just as
money endorsements arise from little ex.
travagances. Very few persons OF ordinary
honesty deliberately set to work to make
large purchases which they cannot afford, and
yet numbers spend just as much in the long
run in little things that they scarcely think
are worth notice 1t Is very difficult TO real.
ize the value of small sums. Little savings,
If made at ALL must be made in personal ex-
penditare. What is spent over the hoGsehold
Is generally needed, but the small personal
Injuries which cost so little, are not. Aud
when any saving is made 10 this way, the
money should be put aside and saved, instead
of being mixed with the spending fund, and
additions made to 1t as frequently as possible;
that will make you understand as soon as
anything, what small economies amount to-
When MONEY is put aside to be saved, il
should be put in some place where IT cannot
be directly got at--the savings bank, for in
stance. The very fact that a little trouble
and formula has to be gone through with be-
fore 1t can be obtained, many time prevents
It being spent when it certainly woiild have
been were 1t close at hand. To secure fnde-
pendence to ourselves is really worth some
self-denial.
