Good Advice to q Girl.


George w. Childs once said
to a girl from the West, who
went to him with letters and
the hope of sufficient infu-
ence to do something in the
arable field OF it urnalism:
"Little woInan,if you can do
something, go ahead and do
it. The world is hungry for
something new. Il is an ON
nivorous creature. but it
wants a change constantly.
Keep as quiet DIS you can.
Keep out Of mems way as
much as you can, for it is
trespassiag on private prop
erty. Keep yourself in good
health, good spirits and
good clothes, and don't try
to be Ii good fellow or one Of
the boys. Save half Of your
earnings. Go to church. Be
agreeable. but reserved, and
il some honorable man offers
you hisname and protection,
give it all up, marry him,
and devote your energies to
home-making. The business
world is no place for a wo-
man, 1t is a rough place,
and people haveto get rough
to succeed in it. ! know hun
dreds Of gentlewomen in bus
liness, but they always seem
to me like going fishing in q
dress snit and white gloves
Exquisite fabrics are not in
tended for rough and ready
wear"
