A Change for the BETTER.

Too many of our young girls are
filled with the dread most forcibly. if
homcly, expressed, in the phrase of
being laid on the shelf One change.
am inclined to think, has come into
this question of marriage Ten years
ago, when girl passed her twentieth,
year, the world began to look at her
curiously and wondered when she was
going to marry, To-day, the majority
of brides are beyond that age. and the
dreaded shelf is scarcely ever associ-
ated with a girl of twenty-three or
twenty-five. ''Girl-wivcs" are happily
becoming more and more of rarity.
The girl who graduates, or leaves
school, at nineteen or twenty, looks
forward to a few years between the
desk and the altar. And in the great
majority of cases girls knowledge of
human nature and of the world, is
formed during those years. The school
room, where many little faults arc over
looked, and the great outer existence
where criticism is more plentiful than
credit, are two different worlds, and it
is fortunate that SO many of our girls
ascertain the difference for themselves.

Energy In Women.

So at the fireside the women may be
very quiet, and not be vcnturesome to-
ward great or sombcr undertakings
but she will not be apathetic if she is
wise, for that is death in life, bringing
perplexity and mistake. She will make
an effort in the interest of some little
beneficence every hour in aid Of her
better nature or the demands of some
one and change the history of her small
sphere for the best. The great ones of
the world have been those who con-
stantly renewed their energy: and !
think if many of US made brave effort
every day the thinkers and pioneers
would not stand SO solitary on the
heights. There is n belief abroad that
one should receive power for an effort,
while it is really energy that brings
power, as the seed brings the fruit. We
have selfish energy all about, but. like
every limitation, it is poisonous vari-
ETY.. The strength and penetration of
those devoted to the happiness of others
and the spread of learning are the re-
suit of prayerful self-giving, no matter
whether the effort is to smile into the
eyes of one who sorrows to-day, or to
minister to a thousand sufferers for all
of life. Effort made Louisa Alcott,
Clara Barton and Julia Ward Howe;
and it makes as well every CHEEKY home

years in various portions of the country.
She is ninety-two years of age, but her
memory is excellent and her sight re-
markably good. Her voice is clear and
melodious in the hymns she delights in
singing
Mrs. JULIA c. Il. DoRR looks less like
poetess than like stately English
gentlewoman. She is large and impos-
ing in appearance, and has calm,
dignified manner that would discourage
any attempt at familiarity. She has a
charming home near Rutland, Vt, a
house-full of books and rare bric-a-
brac-set in grove of fine trees, where
she lives with her married son.
A COMPARATIVELY new work engaged
in by women is that of lady factotums.
For instance, if lady is delicate and
unfit for domestic cares the lady facto-
tum goes to the house, finds out the
condition of things, superintends the
servants, does the marketing, the shop
ping, answers the notes, delivers mes
sages and takes the place of an elder
daughter, all, of course, for fair re-
muneration.
THERE is a roomy, old-fashioned
house in Surrey, England, in which is
established training home for ladies,
where every kind of domestic work is
tanght laundry work, dairying. the
saddling and harnessing of horses, the
management of poultry and everything
necessary to fit them for the manage
ment of home on small income
These homes are common in Europe
and could be useful in this country,
where everything else is well taught.
The medical authorities of Sweden
have recommended the government to
introduce the requisite regulations Cor
women to become apothccaries. In
Norway women have been six years en-
titled to study pharmacy and manage
and own dispensaries. In Finland there
are seven women apothecaries and in
Russia several have availed themselves
of the right of entering the examine
tions. The owners of the dispensaries
appear averse to receiving women stu
dents, and none have gained admission
to any establishment in St. Petersburg.

FATIGUE should not be treated as a
light matter Women often say: II
am perfectly well, only get tired
easily" Then You are not perfectly
well. You need rest, care and possibly
medical treatment. Try the rest first
and set your mind free from worries
and restraints. DO not exact from
yourself work which you do not feel
equal to; make it rule to lie down
two hours each afternoon, and go to
bed early. Keep this treatment up for
three months, with all the out-of-doo
life that you feel equal to, and you will
realize what rest can do. The tired
feeling means that you need rest.

AT least one person in three between

hereditary and due to the too close con-
