People are beginning 20 talk about

some special purpose In view. The
Ladies' New York Club has an object
ana the object is very practical. Women
who are shopping often feel the want
of convenient and comfortable place
in which 20 leave their parcels, get a
bit OF lunch, write a nOte or rest for
half an hour. Heretofore the only op-
I pOrtunities in this line have been af-
fOrded By the parlOrs and reading rooms

some Of the dry goods stores. Moreover
a woman who is belated or misses her
train will not be served with dinner

At many of the hotels. The club is a
measure of defense made necessary by
the received theory that respectability
is conferred only by something that is

There are many things to be thought
of by woman who would apprentice
herself TO journalism; temperament,
versatility and the power to live har-
moniOusly in a newspaper Office. which
is a little world of its own. A girl may
have every qualification, but She Will
