Helpful Women.
Even in Italy husbands are becoming
scarce, so that the Italian women are
learning to help themselves. Work is
not confined to the absolute poor the
middle classes are bringing up their
daughters to learn trade or profession,
and to work at home and out of the
house. The idea has proved lucrative,
even in the speculation of marriage, as
a man naturally prefers q girl who can
earn her own living to one who can only
Jingle tune on the pianoforte or sing q
new song by Tosti, Denza or Rotoli. But
this is only in Upper Italy. In the
southern provinces the idea of women
working is laughed at. Even the
men there work as little as possible,
and they would rather try to live on a
franc day, without earning it, than to
have 1000 francs day and work for
them. In Upper Italy, on the contrary,
even the aristocracy work, and show
good example to the less-fortunate
classes.
