TO The WOMEN OF WISCONSIN.

Women wishing to visit the great ex-
position at Jackson Park in 1893, cannot
do better than buy shares in the Woman's
Dormitory Association. This will enable
them to stay long enough to see things
understandlngly, instead Of paying all
their money out in hotel bills. The Dor
mitory Association is composed of the
best known women in the land. Perfect
ly reliable in every respect. Ladies
of means with philanthropic ideas.
Four large Dormitories will be built
where women and children may stay at
the low rate of 40 cents per day and an
other large one where families will be
received at the same rate. This is stock
company. You buy stock at $40 per share.
These shares will be taken at any Dormi-
tory of this Association in payment for
lodging bills. Only two persons will be
allowed to go at one time on a single
share. These shares will be transferable,
and if the face value is not used by the
stay, it can be made over to another
who can use the balance. After the ten
dollars have been used, the share still
stands on the books, credited to the hold
er, and she will be entitled to her pro
rata share of the profits, if a surplus re-
mains after the enterprise is closed.
The rate per day will not exceed forty
cents to stockholders, or one dollar and
half will cover all expenses including
lodging. breakfast, lunch and dinner.
1t is desired as nearly as possible that
each person shall state during what
month they wish to come, so that rooms
may be recorded for them.
The sewerage will be perfect. Flowers
and vines in the ground will make it look
like a homelike place.
One lady in paying for six shares of
stock said: Il intend to take course
OF education in the Worlds Fair and at
tend every day for all the six months.
When 1 leave the grounds at night, wear
led, 1T will be great comfort to know
that within walking distance there awaits
my coming a clearly, pleasant, quiet
room at the end of only one short flight
OF stair; and after resting for time I
may go out only block away and get
wholesome New England dinner for
fifty cents. Coming back we may assem-
BILE In one of those large, airy parlors on
the ground floor of the dormitory build
lngs. The evening may be cool and a big
old-fashioned fireplace will hold hospi-
table log-fre, and we shall find friends
from the east and west, north and south
and also from over the sea-"
II you desire to invest in stock in this
! association, do SO at once; all the shares
must be sold by October l, as the build
ing committee must then commence work.
The shares are worcestershire and are
transferable, SO after the $40 investment
there will be no further care, and if you
are denied the privilege at the last, OF
going, you lend your share to your "next
of kin" or sell it to your neighbour.
The matrons will be refined, motherly
Christian women, who, not being wearied
with the care of kitchen, or that vexed
question, "What shall we eat?" will al
way always be ready to help every weary,
waiting woman.
The restaurant privileges will be grant
ed to some thorough-going honorable
person (probably a woman,) who will
sign contract to furnish food at uni
form prices during all tie time of the
Fair. For stock apply at once to
