Signorina Theresina Labriola. the
daughter of a well-known Italian house
was recently graduated from the law de-
partment of the University of Rome
with the degree of Doctor of Law-one Of
the first to accomplish this result in
modern Italy. This recalls the fact,
| however, that in the middle ages it was
no rare thing for Italian women to adopt
legal and other professional careers. The
| history of the famous old University of
eBologna-the mother, so to speak, of all
existing institutions of learning-shows
that four women have belonged to it's fac
ulties as professors. Even 100 years ago
Signorina Maria d'Agnes was professor
! Of mathematics in that institution. She
is probably more famous, however, for
| her romantic love affair than for the ex-
cellent results of her labors among roots
and angles.
Her mathematical bump was not suf-
ficiently large to prevent her from fall
ing in love with one of the handsomest
students who visited her classes. But
| he demanded as a condition of their mar
riage that she forsake her calling. After
many days OF doubt and anguish, she de-
cided to remain true to science. Her
| lover babe her farewell, and journeyed
| to a distant city. She went on solving
problems in trignometry and calculus
for a short time, when her grief at the
loss of her sweetheart became too great
to bear and she took the veil in a neigh
boring cloister. There she died from a
| broken heart soon afterward. Her lover
had heard of her change too late.
Success cannot be measured by fame,
| wealth or station, writes Edward w Box
in an article on what constitutes a sue
| cessful life for man or woman in the
October Ladies Home Journal The life
of the humblest woman in the land, if
we'll lived, is as successful as is that of
the woman who, with greater opportun-
tiles, is enabled to make the results of
her works reach farther Some of US
must live for the few, as others again
must live for the many. But both lives
are successful. Each Of us in this world
| influences some other being, and it is the
| quality of our influence and not the num-
Der we influence, which makes our lives
successful in the eyes Of God. We may
believe that we go to our graves un-
known and unsuing, but not one of us
goes out from this world without leaving
an impression, either for the good or the
bad. And the kind of impression we
make while we live, and leave when we
die is the difference between successful
and unsuccessful living.
