An illustration Of the increasing
interest taken by women in the study
of natural science is afforded by the
recent action of the University of
Pennsylvania. In response to an ur-
gent need the faculty has arranged
for an additional thorough course of
botanical instruction from 5 to 5
o'clock in the afternoon for the bene-

come earlier. This course embraces
not only systematic but morphologi-
cal and physiological botany as well.
All the requisite appliances of well
equipped laboratory are furnished,
and the rapidly increasing number of
students in this department offers
one more example of the varied
tastes and capabilities of women.
