ances and from results obtained, is the
Woman's Industrial Union ltsreal strength
lies in the help which it affords 10 women
TO help themselves and the latest move in
this direction is to secure the services of
Mrs. Lincoln Of Boston to give a course Of
lectures on cooking Mrs Lincoln is a pro
fessional teacher in this essential depart
ment of household economy, she is the au-
thor of one or more Of the best cook books
ever issued, and her work has been sue
cessful in every respect. Full particulars
about her lectures are elsewhere given and
the managers Of the Union hope that the
interest and appreciation of Brattleboro
women will be shown by the purchase Of
large number of course tickets. In many
cases, doubtless lasting favor may be
done ones less fortunate neighbor 10y the
gift Of ticket for this course
