The city of Cincinnati possesses 4
striking example of what can be done
by woman's pluck when accompanied

block and established a lunch-room.
where they made a specially Of home
cookery. Most of the work they did
with their own hands, and the excel
lence of their supplies soon created .
q success, and at the end of five years,
when the great Chamber of Commerce
building was put up and there was to b
large restaurant connected with it,
the Misses Stewart boldly applied for
it. They were backed by many of tha
best business men of the city, who had
known them in their days of wealth
and been impressed by their ability an
business women. Their bid was &C.
cepted, the Misses Stewart assumed
charge of the "Glencairn" lunch-room,
and have conducted it without a break
or failure for the last seven years.
The clientele is very large For rent
and services. alone the yearly expenses
are $4,000. The prices charged for
food are very reasonable, yet the sis
ters not only paid all expenses, but live
in comfort and are becoming wealthy.
They have never lost social position by
going into business, and during their
entire career have never had to borrow
