Ladies often say, con, they know

and so OF course they must and they work
great deal better than if they thought
could help myself, l have heard very
sensible women say this And "a charming
authoresS some time ago wrote u series Of
articles IN religious newspaper strongly
defending this view. She wrote in sub
stance; y" Ii 20 to a drcssmaker or IA mil

her work, not mime. Heithef should he

attained by poor women who have limit

employer who teaches her cook to make
delicate soups and desserts and who trains
her waitress or chambermad to skill and
neatness has been of real service to them.
She has helped them to fill their present
places satisfactorily and has perhaps aided
them to win promotion and higher wages
Without having such knowledge herself
she cannot teach them, although in some
localities employers can send their serv-
ants TO a cooking school, where they OBJ
tain instruction which is very useful to
them. In the present scarcity of domestic
servants promotion cannot often be given

women demand and receive nearly as high
wages at the beginning as at the end of
their term of service, The promotion takes
place i'll some other household All how
