Miss ALI Trygg, a Finland girl who
was one Of the delegates sent to the Wo-
mans international council n couple Of
years ago by the Finnish Woman's union,
caught the American fever of enterprise
and has treated her c~ountrymen to n
round of surprises. She first began a
series Of lectures: told her audiences
about the social wonders of the New
World, and with the profits opened a
w~ordngman's kitchen, providing 800 din
ners at five cents each.
Her next venture was TO start n Swed-
ish monthly, devoted TO the woman's
rights movement. That accomplished,
she opened a little brewery shop for the
manufacture of an ale, her drink con
tanning 10 per cent. less alcohol than the
popular beverage. Now this very re-
markable young woman is going to build
a peoples palace, TO contain a library,
art gallery, day nursery, school for poor
children and reading room, and has al
ready petitioned the authorities for a site.

In conversation with the proprietor of

his men clerks from 80 to SEQ per week,

for all he said: ''These women are not
as competent as the men, nor will they
try TO learn, as many are here for the
purpose Of getting pin money, others
through necessity. But all deem ii I'M
necessary to acquire competency in the
business, as the prospect or hope of mar
riage is ever before them, and the EN-
ployment is but n bridge to carry them
across TO that harbor." This is a himsy
excuse wherewith to quiet a mans con-
science when paying a woman wages
upon which she could scarcely exist, not
honestly live, and her incompetency did
not prevent him from demanding the
same rate Of fines" as that of her bet
ter paid brother. Yet it admitted of no
argument, for II n woman will work for
pin money, no employer could be ex-
pected to prevent her from making the
amount as little asshe liked; butt those
who either go out or take work home to
do for spending money. and they are

WOMAN'S
WORDS OF ADVICE TO YOUNG WON
EN- WHO WOULD BE DOCTORS.

Nellie Bty's Financial suceess-rhe Pei
crime Has Come AEain-A Delightful
surprise-smAn Wages Of women-she
Belongs In America
A wonderful change in respect to fe-
male labor has rapidly developed within
the last half century. A asst number of
the common schools have passed into the
hands Of women, with a manifest gain
to the cause Of education, as well as to
that Of the sex. Women fill clerkships
in almost every department Of industry.
At least a many women as men stand
behind counters. They have largely
taken possession of the lighter forms of
labor introduced by the utilizing of
electricity.
The foundation of colleges for women
and the opening to them of some Of the
older colleges nave prepared the way for
their introduction into the various pro-
f~essions. We already have successful
female lawyers, ministers, artists and
especially doctors.
Some of our female doctors stand on
an equality with their medical brethren
in culture, reputation and success, snd
the tendency toward this profession on
the part OF young women now gradual
ing at our higher literary institutions is
one to be encouraged.
The natural instincts of women are in
this direction Its this that makes them
so much at home in the sick ROOM, and
such angels of mercy in military hos
pitfalls. The field for them is broad and
remunerative They need to accompany
the foreign missionary everywhere. They
are best suited to minister to their own
sex and to children generally.
But they must prepare themselves
most thoroughly for the work, adding to
the discipline of the college the fullest
mastery of medicine that can be fur
nishod by first class medical schools.
They cannot rely upon any feeling Of
~gallantry here. 1t must be seen that
they are the equals of their brothers.
Further, we are sorry to say that it is
not infrequently the case that members
of the medical profession are at present
unequal to their responsibilities, 1t has
been too easy to get medical diplomas.
School has competed against school, to
the injury OF the profession and the peril
of the sick Our best medical schools
recognize and deplore this condition Of
things, and are doing what they can to
improve it
We say, therefore, to young ladies
that the field is open to them. with the
pioneer work already done. But let none
enter it who is not suited to the work
by native tact. self reliance and what
may be called physical and moral hardi-
hood-Youth's Companion.

lawyer in Montana. The Maine State
Press says: Miss Knowles is the only

cases all over the state. and Miss
