tons: took a course at the business
college, evening classes. afterward ::
took the four years Chautaqu2 course
Of reading and at q had 4 pretty fair
understanding of things in general.
She had in tie meantime learned
French and German of the operatives
in the mill. She went last year to
Boston and worked as shorthand writer
in an office. The head of the mercan-
tile house fell III love with her and
married her. They are now in Athens,
and she is enjoying the ancient monu-
ments and ruins which she read about

Greek literature.

The Montesano Vidette says: The
only objection it has to the immigra-

that it does not go far enough. No
one should be allowed to land in this

the case may be, for at least one year,

chanic is accustomed to live. Many
of these political planks are framed in
Understanding platitudes, that means
very little. The women" plank is an
