Rightly understood" she said.
there r. nothing ignoble In the
work. on the contrary n girl may
ind in IL admirable possibilities OF
good for herself and others. instead
% posing as martyr she should
consider herself as n respectable
person. intrusted with the care OF
home. and. TO a great extent. with
the happiness of the family. II girls
could be taught these things the
whole aspect Of affairs would
change"
Bits like this suggest the old
doubts about woman's "intellex /"
They make one thing OF "intultion'
and other purely feminine faculties.
The young woman who In this
beautiful and disinterested way
makes n family happy gets one af-
ternoon out and a sunday evening.
She rises at 5 n. m. and goes to bed
when her work is done. She cooks.
sweeps. dusts. scrubs and answers
the door bell. She receives her beau
I'm the kitchen while her mistress en-
tertains her friends in the parlor.
It's all very beautiful. but IL Is sin
gular, II Bridget is responsible for
the welfare and happiness of the
whole family and Is faithful to her
duties, she can't come into the par
lor with her young man. There's
the rub.

1--WE read about 'em. But you ought
not to overlook the fact that those
people had a great advantage over
us. All they had TO learn was what
happened up 10 their time. and then
they had nothing TO do except TO
study their Greek and Latin. They
didn't have to learn the Declaration
Of Independence by heart and study
the constitution OF the United States.
They weren't obliged 10 find out all
about George Washington and Ben
1amin Franklin and Thomas Jeffer-
son and Daniel Webster and all the
rest OF the real people. They were
not expected 20 keep track OF what
Agulnaldo Is going TO do next or
whether we ought 10 take the Phil
ippines and what players the base
bal club has bought or sold. They
had everything all laid out for them.
and they didn't have to study the
time tables or figure on how to get
off an electric car In a hurry. I'm
willing to admit that we aren't as
smart as boys were a century or two
ago; hut I cant help thinking there
are cxtenuatlng circumstances."-
