An American lady interviewer asked me
the other day whnt | thought the noblest
career for woman. l said l Thought I
was marriage. She seemed nstonishe'.
That is, IN fact, my deliberate opinion.
More, | believe TINT II the question we've
put 70 any woman who has lived the ma
irons life and has sons and daughters
grown up whether, looking back, she would
still deliberately choose to be the mother OF
these sons and daughters or would become
Il journalist, novelist, teacher, nurse, artist,
typewriter, CLERK cashier or any Of tn
many occupations open to women she
would without the least hesitation declare
that she would prefer the matron's life "
the noblest Hud highest lot open TO women,
To enrich the world with noble children,
TO give the country more brave hands and
honest hearts-what, In comparison with
this is the Independence OF the single WON
ma or her work-her average work. Do
not talk about the isolated cases of genius.
Talk about the average work. That all
women cannot marry is perfectly true; that
women are making 1t every day more dihi-
cult to marry by taking mems work is also
true.-London Queer.

young girl was equally determined to see
how II looked on her.
At last she was taken TO what Is called
the evening room, with its dozens OF cleo
trio lights ard lie walls of plate mirror
glass, and there she put on the splendid
500 robe and called in the saleswoman and
the women who had come with her The
dress was too loose and too long, but the
girl had pretty neck and shapely arms
and evidently admired them us much as
she did the gown, wi Q she turned around
and around and scrutlnized her appearance
In the mirrors. Finally she regretted that
the dress could not be altered within few
hours, though she bad been so informed
before she had put it on, and said she was
sorry, but she would have to look else
where. As she WIS leaving the store one
Of the saleswomen heard her say;
There, now am satisfied 10 be married
tomorrow and bury myself in the country.

A Spanish legend would seem to claim
for that romantic land OF hidAlgos and
scnoritas the origin OF the bridal orange
blossoms. "Ono of the Spanish kings, so
runs the legend, had an imported orange
tree, OF which he was very proud, and Of
which the French ambassador was cX-
tremely anxious to obtain Slip. The gar
dener's daughter was poor, and requiring
dowry in order to marry her lover she
obtained cutting Of the orange tree aud
sold it to the diplomat for q high price, aft
erward wearing II wreath OF the blossoms
at her wedding in recognition Of the plant
to which she owed her happiness"
